Special position of the windscreen wipers Automatic rain sensitive windscreen wipers
The windscreen wipers operate automati-
cally, without any action on the part of the
driver, if rain is detected (sensor behind
the rear view mirror), adapting their speed
to the intensity of the rainfall.
Activation
This is controlled manually by the driver
by pushing the stalk downwards to the

"AUTO" position.
It is accompanied by a message on the
multifunction screen. This position permits release of the
windscreen wiper blades.
It is used for cleaning or replacement
of the blades. It can also be useful, in
winter, to detach the blades from the
windscreen.
In the moment following switching off
of the ignition, any action on the stalk
positions the wipers vertically on the
windscreen.
To park the wipers after this has been
done, switch on the ignition and operate
the stalk.
Do not cover the rain sensor,
linked with the sunshine sen-
sor and located in the centre
of the windscreen behind the rear
view mirror.
Switch off the automatic rain sensi-
tive wipers when using an automatic
car wash.
In winter, to avoid damaging the wip-
er blades, it is advisable to wait until
the windscreen is completely clear of
ice before activating the automatic
rain sensitive wipers. The automatic rain sensitive
wipers must be reactivated if
the ignition has been off for
more than one minute, by pushing
the stalk downwards.
Switching off
This is controlled manually by the driver
by moving the stalk upwards then re-
turning it to position "0" .
It is accompanied by a message on the
multifunction screen. Operating fault
If an automatic wiping malfunction
occurs, the wipers will operate in inter-
mittent mode.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
For maintain the effective-
ness of the "fl at-blade" wiper
blades, it is advisable to:
- handle them with care,
- clean them regularly using soapy water,
- avoid using them to retain card- board on the windscreen.
- replace them at the fi rst signs of wear.

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
System which automatically checks the
pressure of the tyres while driving. 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 (example: fi tting of snow
tyres), you must have the system
reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer.
This system does not eliminate
the need to have the tyre pres-
sure checked regularly (refer
to the "Identifi cation markings" para-
graph) to ensure that the optimum
dynamic performance of the vehicle
is maintained and prevent premature
wear of the tyres, particularly in ardu-
ous driving conditions (heavy load,
high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Re-
member to check the pressure of the
spare wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to radioelectric
emissions on a frequency close to
that used by the system.
Sensors fi tted in each valve trigger a
warning in the event of malfunction
(speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).
The spare wheel is not fi tted with a sensor.
This warning lamp is displayed on the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears on the multifunction screen,
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.
Under-infl ated tyre The
STOP warning lamp
comes on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction
screen 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
The tyre under-infl ation detec-
tion system is an aid to driving
which does not replace the
need for the driver to be vigilant or to
drive responsibly. Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
A message appears on the multifunc-
tion screen, accompanied by an audible
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).
This message is also dis-
played when one of the wheels
is away from the vehicle (be-
ing repaired) or when one or more
wheels without a sensor are fi tted.

Activation
Deactivation

 Press button 1 to deactivate the sys-
tem, the indicator lamp switches off.
Reactivation

 Press button 1 again to reactivate
the system.
The last value programmed is retained and the indicator lamp comes on. If the indicator lamp on but-
ton
1 fl ashes, have the sys-
tem checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Example with a value of 2 seconds:
Operating limits
The system switches to standby auto-
matically if the sensor does not detect
the vehicle in front correctly (very dif-
fi cult weather conditions, sensor out of
adjustment, ...). A message is displayed
on the multifunction screen.
The vehicle being followed may not be
detected in certain conditions such as,
for example:
- when turning,
- when changing lane,
- when the vehicle in front is either too far ahead (maximum range of
the sensor: 100 m) or stationary (in
a traffi c jam, ...),
When the vehicle being followed is
much too near (time between the two
vehicles less than 0.5 seconds), the dis-
play remains fi xed at 0.5 seconds.
Programming the alert value

 Select the alert value required using
button 2 , in steps of 0.1 second:
- up to increase: "+",
- down to decrease: "-".
This system is not an anti-colli-
sion radar and it does not act of the
movement of your vehicle. It pro-
vides information but cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of the
vigilance and responsibility of the
driver.

 Press button 1 , the indicator lamp
comes on.
The system is activated but will only
operate from 45 mph (70 km/h).
The alert value can be programmed to
between 0.9 second and 2.5 seconds.
The visual alert can be deactivated by
programming a value of 0 second. When the time (in seconds) between
your vehicle and the vehicle in front is
less than the programmed time (alert
value), a visual alert fl ashes.
A safety time of 2 seconds is
recommended in normal driv-
ing conditions (correct traction
and speed) to avoid a collision
in the event of emergency
braking.

VISUAL AND AUDIBLE FRONT AND/OR REAR PARKING SENSORS
System consisting of four proximity sen-
sors, installed in the front and/or 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 sensors are
switched on :
- by engaging reverse gear,
- at a speed below 6 mph (10 km/h) in forward gear.
This is accompanied by an audible
signal and display of the vehicle on
the multifunction screen.
An object, such as a stake, a
roadworks cone or any other
similar object may be detected
at the start of the manoeuvre but may
no longer be detected when the ve-
hicle moves nearer to it. The proximity information is indicated
by:
- an audible signal which becomes
more rapid as the vehicle approaches
the obstacle,
- a diagram on the multifunction screen, with blocks which move
closer to the vehicle.
The obstacle is located in relation to the
emission of the audible signal by the
speakers; front or rear and right or left.
When the distance between the vehicle
and the obstacle is less than approxi-
mately thirty centimetres, the audible
signal becomes continuous and/or the
"Danger" symbol appears, depending
on the multifunction screen version.

The parking sensor system
cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance
and responsibility on the part
of the driver.
The parking sensors are
switched off :
- when you exit reverse gear,
- when the speed is higher than 6 mph (10 km/h) in forward gear,
- when the vehicle has been statio- nary for more than three seconds in
forward gear. Deactivation Operating fault
The system will be deacti-
vated automatically when a
trailer is being towed or when
a bicycle carrier is fi tted (vehicle fi t-
ted with a towbar or bicycle carrier
recommended by PEUGEOT).
Reactivation

 Press button A again, the warning
lamp switches off, the system is re-
activated.

 Press button A , the warning lamp
comes on, the system is fully deacti-
vated. In bad weather or in winter, en-
sure that the sensors are not
covered with mud, ice or snow.
When reverse gear is engaged, an
audible signal (long beep) indicates
that the sensors may be dirty.
When the vehicle is being driven at
a speed below approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h), certain sources of noise
(motorcycles, lorries, pneumatic
drills, ...) may trigger the parking sen-
sor audible signals. If an operating fault occurs,
this warning lamp is displayed
on the instrument panel and/
or a message appears on
the multifunction screen, ac-
companied by an audible signal (short
beep), when reverse gear is engaged.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.

PARKING SPACE SENSORS
System which measures the parking
space available between two vehicles
or obstacles. It measures the size of the
space and gives you information on:
- the possibility of fi tting into a free space, depending on the dimen-
sions of your vehicle and the dis-
tances needed for manoeuvring,
- the level of diffi culty of the manoeuvre to be performed.
The system does not measure spaces
which are clearly much smaller or larger
than the size of the vehicle.
Displays on the instrument panel
The parking space sensor
function warning lamp can
have three different states:
- off: the function is not selected,
- on fi xed: the function is selected
but the conditions for measuring are
not yet met (direction indicator not
operating, speed too high) or the
measuring phase is terminated.
- fl ashing: the measuring is in progress
or the message is being displayed. You can select the "parking space sen-
sor" function by pressing button A. The
fi xed lighting of the warning lamp indi-
cates that the function is selected.

Operation
You have identifi ed a parking space:

 Press button A to select the func-
tion.

 Activate the direction indicator on
the side where the space is to be
measured.

 During the measuring, go forward
the length of the space, at a speed
less than 12 mph (approx. 20 km/h),
to prepare for your manoeuvre.
The system then measures the size of the space.

 The system informs you of the
level of diffi culty of the manoeuvre
via a message on the multifunction
screen accompanied by a gong.

 Depending on the message issued
by the system, you may or may not
be able to perform the manoeuvre. The function displays the following
types of message:

Parking possible

Parking diffi cult

Parking not advised The function deselects itself automati-
cally:
- when you engage reverse gear,
- when you switch off the ignition,
- if measuring is not requested,
- within fi ve minutes of selection of
the function,
- if the vehicle speed exceeds the threshold of 45 mph (approx. 70 km/h)
for one minute.
- The function remains available after each measurement and
thus can measure more than
one space during your search.
- In bad weather conditions or in winter, make sure that the sensors
are not covered by dirt, or by ice or
snow.
- The parking space sensor function deactivates the front parking as-
sistance during the space measur-
ing phase when you are in forward
gear.
If there is a malfunction, have the sys-
tem checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
If the lateral distance between
your vehicle and the parking
space is too large, the system
may not be able to measure
the space.
