Indicator and warning lamps

Visual indicators informing the driver that a system is in operation (operation or
deactivation indicator lamps) or of the occurrence of a fault (warning lamp).

When the ignition is switched on

Certain warning lamps come on for a few seconds when the vehicle's ignition is switched on.

When the engine is started, these same warning lamps should go off.
If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the information on the warning lamp
concerned.

Associated warnings
The illumination of certain warning lamps may be accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the multifunction screen. The warning lamps may come on
continuously (fi xed) or fl ash.
Certain warning lamps may come
on in two different modes. Only by
relating the type of illumination to
the operating status of the vehicle
can it be ascertained whether the
situation is normal or whether a
fault has occurred.

Operation indicator lamps
If one of the following indicator lamps comes on, this confi rms that the corresponding
system has come into operation.

Displays

The corresponding indicator lamp comes
on in the instrument panel to confi rm the
switching on of the lighting selected.

Main lighting

The vehicle's various front and rear
lamps are designed to adapt the driver's
visibility gradually in relation to the cli-
matic conditions:


- sidelamps, to be seen,

- dipped beam headlamps to see
without dazzling other drivers,

- main beam headlamps for good vis-
ibility when the road is clear.



Additional lighting

Other lamps are installed to respond to
particular driving conditions:


- rear foglamps to be seen from a dis-
tance,

- front foglamps for even better visibility.



Programmes

Various automatic lighting control
modes are also available according to
the following options:


- "guide-me-home" lighting,

VISIBILITY
In fog or snow, the sunshine sen-
sor may detect suffi cient light.
Therefore, the lighting will not
come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sen-
sor, coupled with the rain sensor
and located in the centre of the
windscreen behind the rear view
mirror; the associated functions
would no longer be controlled.

Coupling with the "Guide-me-home"
lighting
Association with the automatic illumination of
headlamps provides the "guide-me-home"
lighting with the following additional options:


- selection of the lighting duration to 15, 30
or 60 seconds in the vehicle parameters
in the multifunction screen confi guration
menu,

- automatic activation of "guide-me-home"
lighting when automatic illumination of
headlamps is in operation.











Automatic illumination
of headlamps
The sidelamps and dipped beam head-
lamps are switched on automatically,
without any action on the part of the
driver, when a low level of external light
is detected (sensor behind the rear view
mirror) or when the windscreen wipers
are switched on.
As soon as the brightness returns to a
suffi cient level or after the windscreen
wipers are switched off, the lighting is
switched off automatically.

"Guide-me-home" lighting

The dipped headlamps remain on tem-
porarily, after switching off the vehicle's
ignition, to make the driver's exit easier
in poor light.

Activation


)
With the ignition off, activate a
"headlamp fl ash" using stalk B
.

)
A second "headlamp fl ash" switches
the function off again.


Switching off
The "guide-me-home" lighting is switched
off automatically following the door lock-
ing command, after a given time.

Activation


)
Turn ring A
to the " AUTO
" position. The
automatic illumination of headlamps
is accompanied by a message in the
multifunction screen.

Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of
the brightness sensor, the light-
ing comes on accompanied by
the service warning lamp, an
audible signal and a message on the
multifunction screen.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.


Daytime running lamps *

On vehicles fi tted with daytime running
lamps, the dipped headlamps come on
when the vehicle is started.
This indicator lamp comes on
in the instrument panel.
The instruments and controls (multi-
function screen, air conditioning control
panel, ...) are not lit, unless the auto-
matic lighting mode is activated or the
lighting is switched on manually.

Deactivation


)
Turn ring A
to a position other than
" AUTO
". Deactivation is accompa-
nied by a message in the multifunction
screen.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
142
The headlamps are fi tted with polycar-
bonate glass with a protective coating:


)
do not clean them using a dry or
abrasive cloth, nor with a deter-
gent or solvent product,


)
use a sponge and soapy water,

)
when using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not direct
at the lamps or their outlines for too
long, so as not to damage their pro-
tective coating and seals.


Front lamps CHANGING A BULB

Changing the direction indicator
bulbs
Amber coloured bulbs, such as the
direction indicators, must be re-
placed with bulbs of identical spec-
ifi cation and colour.

)
Turn the bulb holder one quarter of
a turn and remove it.

)
Pull the bulb then change it.
To r efi t, carry out these operations in re-
verse order.
































1.

Direction indicators (PY21W amber).


2.
Sidelamps (W5W).


3.
Dipped beam headlamps (H7-55W).

4.
Main beam headlamps (H1-55W).


5.
Foglamps (H11-55W).





)
Do not touch the bulb directly
with your fi ngers, use lint-free
cloths.
Changing a bulb should only be
done after the headlamp has been
switched off for a few minutes (risk
of serious burns).
It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs in order
not to damage the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specifi cation. In some weather conditions (e.g.
low temperature or humidity), the
presence of misting on the internal
surface of the glass of the head-
lamps and rear lamps is normal;
it disappears after the lamps have
been on for a few minutes.
