Particle emission fi lter
saturation warning lamp
(Diesel engine)
With the engine running, this indicates
that the particle emission fi lter is star-
ting to become saturated (exceptionally
prolonged urban driving type conditions:
low speed, long traffi c jams...) or a low
diesel additive reservoir level.
In order to regenerate the fi lter, you are
advised to drive, as soon as possible
when the traffi c conditions permit, at a
speed of 40 mph (60 km/h) or above
for at least fi ve minutes (until the war-
ning lamp is switched off).
If the warning lamp remains on, con-
tact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Following prolonged use of the vehi-
cle at very low speeds or at idle, you
may, exceptionally, notice an emission
of water vapour at the exhaust during
acceleration. This does not affect the
performance of the vehicle or the en-
vironment.
Service warning lamp
This is displayed to indicate an engine
management system fault.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible. Automatic gearbox fault
warning lamp

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 be-
tween the passengers.

5. Side vents.

6. Front windows demisting/defrosting
vents.

7.
Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents.

8. Sunshine sensor.

9. Air diffuser grille.
AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING REGULATION
Use of the automatic regulation of the
air conditioning is recommended. It per-
mits automatic and optimised control of
all of the following functions: air fl ow,
passenger compartment temperature
and air distribution, by means of vari-
ous sensors, so preventing the need
for you to change your reference set-
tings other than the value displayed.
Air diffuser
The air diffuser grille, located at the top
of the centre console, signifi cantly im-
proves distribution and fl ows and pre-
vents air currents, while maintaining an
optimum temperature inside the pas-
senger 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 in-
tense 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.
Defl ated tyre Instrument panel display warn-
ing lamp.
This is accompanied by the audible
signal and the message on the mul-
tifunction screen identifying the wheel
concerned.
If this warning lamp comes on, have
the tyre pressure checked as soon as
possible.
Puncture
This warning lamp, accompanied by
the audible signal and the message on
the multifunction screen identifying the
wheel concerned, is followed by illumi-
nation of the 'STOP' warning lamp. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so,
avoiding any sudden 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 screen warn-
ing lamp. 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 re-
initialised 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 pressures
checked regularly (see the label on
the door pillar) to ensure that the op-
timum dynamic performance of the
vehicle is maintained and prevent pre-
mature wear of the tyres, particularly
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 interfer-
ence due to electromagnetic 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 warn-
ing lamp.
This is accompanied by the audible
signal and the message on the mul-
tifunction screen 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 SENSORS
To ensure optimum operation,
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 screen.
It detects any obstacle (person, ve-
hicle, 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.

Deactivation
Press button A to deactivate the sys-
tem (child asleep in the rear...). The in-
dicator lamp on the button comes on.

Note: this function will be de-
activated automatically when
a trailer is being towed (vehi-
cle fi tted with a towbar recom-
mended by PEUGEOT). If there is an operating fault,
when reverse gear is en-
gaged, the indicator lamp
fl ashes, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message on the
multifunction screen.
Reactivation
Press button
A again to reactivate the
system. The indicator lamp on the but-
ton is switched off.
The proximity of the obstacle is indi-
cated by:
- an audible signal which becomes more rapid as the vehicle ap-
proaches the obstacle,
- a graphic on the multifunction screen, with blocks which become
increasingly close to the vehicle.
The obstacle is located in relation to
the emission of the audible signal by
the speakers; that is, front or rear and
right or left.
When the distance between the ve-
hicle and the obstacle is less than
approximately thirty centimetres, the
audible signal becomes continuous
and/or the "Danger" symbol appears
on the multifunction screen.
The system becomes inactive again:
- when you exit reverse gear,
- when the speed is above 6 mph (10 km/h),
- at the end of the manoeuvre, when stationary, after a few seconds
(front parking sensors only).
