Energy Economy Mode; Switching Off The Engine - PEUGEOT 5008 2017 Handbook

Driving
F With a Diesel engine, turn the key to
position 2, ignition on, to operate the engine
pre-heating system.
Wait until this warning lamp goes off in
the instrument panel then operate the
starter motor by turning the key to position
3 without pressing the accelerator pedal,
until the engine starts. Once the engine is
running, release the key.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp
can stay on for a longer period. When the
engine is hot, the warning lamp does not
come on.
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition. Wait a few moments
before operating the starter motor again.
If the engine does not start after several
attempts, do not keep trying: you risk
damaging the starter motor or the engine.
Call on a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In temperate conditions, do not leave
the engine at idle to warm up but move
off straight away and drive at moderate
speed.
178
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!
In very extreme wintry conditions
(temperature below -23°C), to guarantee
correct operation and the longevity of
the mechanical elements of your vehicle,
engine and gearbox, the engine must be
left running for 4 minutes before starting
the vehicle.

Switching off the engine

F Stop the vehicle.
F With the engine running in idle, turn the key
to position 1.
F Remove the key from the ignition switch.
F To lock the steering column, turn the
steering wheel until it locks.
To facilitate unlocking of the steering
column, it is recommended that the
wheels be returned to the straight ahead
position before switching off the engine.
F Check that the parking brake is correctly
applied, particularly on sloping ground.
Never switch off the ignition before the
vehicle is at a complete stop. With the
engine off, the braking and steering
assistance systems are also cut off: risk of
loss of control of the vehicle.
When you leave the vehicle, keep the key
with you and lock the vehicle.

Energy economy mode

After switching off the engine (position 1 - Stop),
for a maximum of 30 minutes you can still use
functions such as the audio and telematic
system, the wipers, dipped beam headlamps,
courtesy lamps, etc.
