For even air distribution, take care
not to obstruct the exterior air intake
grille located at the bottom of the wind-
screen, the vents, the air outlets under
the front seats and the air extractor lo-
cated behind the fl aps in the boot.
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load on a
steep gradient in hot weather), cutting
off the air conditioning permits recov-
ery of the engine power and therefore
improvement of the towing capacity.
Close the windows to benefi t from the
full effectiveness of the air conditioning.
Ensure that the passenger compart-
ment fi lter is in good condition. Have
the fi lter elements replaced periodical-
ly. If you drive in a dusty environment,
replace it twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and is not harmful to
the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in perfect working order.
The water formed by the air conditioning
condensation is discharged via an open-
ing provided for this purpose. Therefore,
a puddle of water may form underneath
the vehicle when stationary. If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.

1. Centre panel vents.

2. Adjustment of the glove box air
fl ow (see section"Interior layout").

3. Air outlet to passenger footwells.

4. Two ventilation vents at the rear
at the base of the centre console
between the passengers.

5. Side vents.

6. Front windows de-icing or demisting
vents.

7. Windscreen de-icing or demisting
vents.

8. Sunshine sensor.

9. Air diffuser grille. AUTOMATIC REGULATION OF THE AIR CONDITIONING
Use of the automatic regulation of
the air conditioning is recommended.
It permits automatic and optimised
control of all of the following functions:
air fl ow, passenger compartment
temperature and air distribution,
by means of various sensors, so
preventing the need for you to change
your reference settings other than the
value displayed.
Air diffuser
The air diffuser grille, located at the
top of the centre console, signifi cantly
improves distribution and fl ows and
prevents air currents, while maintain-
ing an optimum temperature inside the
passenger compartment.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor
8 .
It is required for regulation of the air
conditioning.
Advice on operation
To obtain even ventilation,
avoid closing the air diffuser
grille 9 .
In hot weather, in order to obtain intense
ventilation, you can close the air diffuser
grille and use vents 1 and 5 only.
If, when the vehicle has been parked
in the sun for a long time, the interior
temperature remains very high, do not
hesitate to ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes.

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
Sensors check the tyre pressure dur-
ing driving and trigger a warning in the
event of malfunction.
Flat tyre Instrument panel display
warning light.
This is accompanied by the audible signal
and the message on the multi-function
display locating the wheel concerned.
If this warning light comes on, have
the tyre pressure checked as soon as
possible.
Puncture
This warning light, accompanied by
the audible signal and the message on
the multi-function display locating the
wheel concerned, is followed by illumi-
nation of the "STOP" warning light. 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.
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
Instrument panel display
warning light. All repairs and changing of
tyres on a wheel fi tted with this
system must be carried out by
a PEUGEOT dealer.
If, when changing a tyre, you install a
wheel which is not detected by your
vehicle, you must have the system
reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer.
The tyre under-infl ation detection sys-
tem is an aid to driving which does not
replace the need for the driver to be
vigilant or to drive responsibly.
This system does not eliminate
the need to have the tyre pressure
checked regularly (see manufacturer's
label on the door pillar) to ensure that
the optimum dynamic performance
of the vehicle is maintained and pre-
vent premature wear of the tyres, par-
ticularly in arduous driving conditions
(heavy load, high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Remem-
ber to check the pressure of the spare
wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection sys-
tem may experience temporary inter-
ference due to radioelectric emissions
on a frequency close to that used by
the system.

Note : this message is also
displayed when one of the
wheels is away from the ve-
hicle (being repaired) or when
one or more wheels without a
sensor are fi tted.
Instrument panel display
warning light.
This is accompanied by the audible
signal and the message on the multi-
function display which indicates that
under-infl ation detection is absent
from one (or several) wheel(s) or that
there is a fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace
the faulty sensor(s).

VISUAL AND AUDIBLE FRONT AND REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE
To guarantee optimum opera-
tion, in bad weather or in winter,
ensure that the sensors are
not covered with mud, frost or
snow.
This system consists of proximity sensors: - four in the front bumper,
and
- four in the rear bumper. Detection zone
The system is deactivated if
the vehicle is stationary for
more than 3 seconds.
Detection
The system is activated when:
- reverse gear is engaged,
- the speed is below 6 mph (10 km/h)
in forward gear.
It is accompanied by an audible signal
and/or displaying of the vehicle on the
multifunction display.
It detects any obstacle (person, vehi-
cle, tree, gate, etc.) in front of or be-
hind the vehicle. However, it cannot
detect obstacles located directly under
the bumper.
An object, such as a stake, cone or any
other similar object may be detected
at the beginning of the manoeuvre but
may no longer be detected when the
vehicle comes close to it.

Fitting a wheel

 Position the wheel.

 Tighten the bolts by hand.

 Partly tighten the bolts using the
wheelbrace.

 Fold the jack 2 and remove it.

 Fully tighten the bolts using the
wheelbrace 1 .

 For vehicles with steel wheels,
refi t the wheel trim starting by plac-
ing its notch facing the valve and
press with the palm of the hand.

 For vehicles with alloy wheels, refi t
the covers.

 Put the tool holder back in position.
This helps to keep the boot fl oor in
its correct position, to prevent any
deformation of the fl oor when loaded.

 Tighten the spare wheel securing
strap to prevent noise and for your
safety in the event of impact. Punctured tyre warning
light
Information on the instrument
panel:

Reminder: for your safety, always
change a wheel:
- on level, stable, non-slippery ground,
- with the handbrake applied,
-
with fi rst or reverse gear engaged (po-
sition P for the automatic gearbox),
- never go underneath a vehicle
which is supported only by a jack. Tyre under-infl ation detection
system warning light
These original wheels are fi tted with a
pressure sensor (see paragraph "Tyre
under-infl ation detection"). The alarm
which detects the removal or absence
of a wheel fi tted with the indicator
sensor signals the anomaly. Have
the wheel repaired and checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
After changing the wheel:
- have the tightening of the bolts and
the tyre pressure of the spare wheel
checked as soon as possible.
- have the punctured wheel repaired and refi t it to the vehicle as soon as
possible.
- have the spare wheel checked and replace it in its boot recess.
Recommendations when using the
temporary spare wheel *
Your vehicle may be equipped with a
spare wheel with a different rim to that
of the standard wheel.
After use, replace it as soon as possible.
Follow the recommendations below
to avoid any alteration in vehicle han-
dling:
-
do not drive above 50 mph (80 km/h) ,

- do not fi t a wheel trim,
- drive carefully,
- check the infl ation pressure indi- cated on the label.
* According to version and country.
