In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and main-
tenance rules below:

 If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a considerable time, do not hesitate t o ventilate the
passenger compartment for a few minutes.
Place the air fl ow control at a suffi cient level to provide an adequate
renewal of air in the passenger compartment.

 To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obst ruct the exterior air
intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the n ozzles, the vents
and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.

 Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the fascia; th is is used for
regulation of the air conditioning system.

 Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, on ce or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working order.

 Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condit ion and
have the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).

We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter. Thanks
to its second special active fi lter, it contributes to the pu rifi cation of the air
breathed by the occupants and the cleanness of the passenger co mpart-
ment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).

 To guarantee correct operation of the air conditioning syste m, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly.

 If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it a nd contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning permits the recovery of engi ne power and
therefore improvement of the towing capacity.
The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of
water under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.

In fog or snow, the brightness
sensor may detect suffi cient light.
Therefore, the lights will not come
on automatically.
Do not cover the brightness sen-
sor, coupled with the rain sensor
and located in the centre of the
windscreen behind the interior mir-
ror; the associated functions would
no longer be controlled.
Coupling with the "Follow-me-
home" lighting
Association with the automatic lighting
provides the "follow-me-home" lighting
with the following additional options:
- selection of the duration of main-
taining of the lighting for 15, 30 or
60 seconds in the vehicle param-
eters on the multifunction display
confi guration menu,
- automatic activation of "follow-me- home" lighting when automatic light-
ing is in operation.
Automatic lighting
The side lights and dipped headlamps
are switched on automatically, without
any action on the part of the driver,
when a low level of external light is de-
tected (sensor behind the interior mir-
ror) 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 lights are
switched off automatically.
"Follow-me-home" lighting
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 lever B .
 A second "headlamp fl ash" switches the function off again.
Switching off
The "follow-me-home" lighting is switched off automatically following the door locking command, after a given time.
Activation

 Turn ring A to the " AUTO
" position.
The automatic lighting is accompa-
nied by a message on the multifunc-
tion display. Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of
the brightness sensor, the lights
come on accompanied by the
service warning light, an audi-
ble signal and a message on the multi-
function display.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Daytime lights *
On vehicles fi tted with daytime lights, the dipped headlamps come on when the vehicle is started.
This indicator light comes on on the instrument panel.
The instruments and controls (instru-ment panel, multifunction display, air conditioning control panel, ...) are not lit, unless the automatic switching on of the lights mode is activated or the lights are switched on manually.

Special position of the windscreen wipers Automatic windscreen wiping
The windscreen wipers operate auto-
matically, without any action on the part
of the driver, if rain is detected (sensor
behind the interior mirror), adapting their
speed to the intensity of the rainfall.
Activation
This is controlled manually by the driver
by pushing the stalk A to the "AUTO"
position.
It is accompanied by a message on the
multifunction display.
In the minute following switching off of the ignition, any action on the stalk posi-tions the wipers in the centre of the windscreen.
This action enables you to position the wiper blades for winter parking.
To park the wipers after this has been done, switch on the ignition and operate the stalk.
Do not cover the rain sensor, cou-
pled with the brightness sensor and
located in the centre of the wind-
screen behind the interior mirror.
Switch off the ignition when using
an automatic car wash.
In winter, it is advisable to wait until
the windscreen is completely clear
of ice before activating the auto-
matic wiping. The automatic wiping must be re-
activated if the ignition has been off
for more than one minute, by push-
ing the stalk
A downwards.
Switching off
This is controlled manually by the driver
by moving the stalk A to another posi-
tion and returning it to position "0" .
It is accompanied by a message on the
multifunction display. Operating fault
If an automatic wiping malfunction oc-
curs, the wipers will operate in intermit-
tent mode.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
System which automatically checks the pressure of the tyres while driving.
Sensors fi tted in each valve trigger a warning in the event of malfunction (speed above 12 mph (20 km/h).
Flat tyre
A message appears on the multifunc-tion display, accompanied by an audible signal, to locate the wheel concerned.
 Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible.
This check must be carried out when the tyres are cold.
This warning light and the STOPwarning light come on on the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal and a mes-sage on the multifunction display locating the wheel concerned.
 Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-den movement of the steering wheel and the brakes.
 Change the damaged wheel (punc-tured or very defl ated tyre), and have the tyre pressure checked as soon as possible.
Puncture
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
A message appears on the multifunc-tion display, accompanied by an audi-ble signal, to locate the wheel or wheels which are not detected or to indicate a fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace the faulty sensor(s).

VISUAL AND AUDIBLE REAR
PARKING ASSISTANCE
System consisting of four proximity sen-
sors, installed in the rear bumper.
It detects any obstacle (person, vehicle,
tree, barrier...) located behind the vehi-
cle, however, it will not be able to detect
obstacles located immediately below
the bumper. The parking assistance is
switched on
by engaging reverse gear.
This is accompanied by an audible signal.
* According to version.
An object, such as a stake, a road-
works cone or any other similar
object may be detected at the start
of the manoeuvre but may no lon-
ger be detected when the vehicle
moves nearer to it. When the distance between the rear of
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than
approximately thirty centimetres, the au-
dible signal becomes continuous and the
"Danger" symbol appears, depending on
the multifunction display version.
The parking assistance is
switched off
by moving the gear lever to neutral.
The parking assistance system
cannot, in any circumstances, re-
place the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the
driver.
The proximity information is indicated
by:
- an audible signal which becomes more rapid as the vehicle approach-
es the obstacle,
- a diagram on the multifunction dis- play * , with blocks which move clos-
er to the vehicle. Operating fault
In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered
with mud, ice or snow. When re-
verse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that
the sensors may be dirty. If an operating fault occurs, this
warning light comes on, when
reverse gear is engaged, ac-
companied by an audible signal
(short beep) and a message on the mul-
tifunction display.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
