Lighting and visibility
4Activation / Deactivation
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch 
screen menu.
Switching on / off
This system operates from a certain angle of 
rotation of the steering wheel.
The system does not operate:
–
 
below a certain angle of rotation of the 
steering wheel.
–
 
above 56 mph (90
   km/h),
–
 
when reverse gear is engaged.
Night Vision 
 
This system identifies and signals the presence 
of pedestrians and animals in the driver's field 
of vision, in low exterior light conditions, using 
an infrared camera located at the front of the 
vehicle.
Select the "Night vision " display mode if you 
want the infrared camera image to be displayed 
constantly on the instrument panel. When the 
conditions are met, an alert is triggered if there is 
a risk of collision.
The permanent
  display disappears upon 
switching off the ignition or if the conditions are 
not met.
This system is a driving aid system that  cannot, under any circumstances, 
replace the driver's assessment of night-time 
visibility and traffic conditions.
In some cases, the differences in temperature 
are insufficient and the system may not detect 
all dangers or, conversely, it may give false 
warnings (e.g. engines of lorries parked by 
the side of the road).
Activation/Deactivation
This function is set via the Driving/ Vehicle touch screen menu.
Conditions for operation
– With the engine running and in Stop mode 
of   Stop & Start.
–
 
V
 ery low light conditions with dipped beam 
headlamps on and in good working order.
–
 
T
 emperature between -30°C and +28°C.
–
 
Speed below 99 mph (160
   km/h).
–

Operation
If the function is selected but the display 
on the instrument panel and the alerts are  not available (in "
Night Vision"mode), the 
indicator lamp comes on in grey.
If all operating conditions are met, the 
indicator lamp comes on in green: the 
display on the instrument panel (with " Night 
Vision " mode selected) and the triggering of 
alerts are available.
If certain operating conditions (speed or 
temperature) are not met, the indicator 
lamp comes on in orange: only the display on the 
instrument panel is available (in " Night Vision" 
mode).
Whilst the exterior light is too bright or the dipped 
beam headlamps have not been switched on, 
the alerts are not available.

Driving
Towing
Driving with a trailer places greater 
demands on the towing vehicle and 
particular care must be taken.
Do not exceed the maximum towable 
weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by 
10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower 
air density at high altitudes decreases engine 
performance.
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the 
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles 
(1,000 kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the 
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the 
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
â–º Distribute the load in the trailer so that the 
heaviest items are located as close as possible 
to the axle, and the nose weight (at the point 
where it joins your vehicle) approaches the 
maximum permitted, without exceeding it.
Tyres
â–º Check the tyre pressures of the towing 
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the 
recommended pressures.
Lighting
â–º Check the electrical signalling on the trailer 
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine PEUGEOT towing device is 
used, the rear parking sensors will be 
deactivated automatically to avoid activating 
the audible signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant 
temperature to increase. The maximum towable 
load depends on the gradient and the exterior 
temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not 
increase with engine speed.
â–º
 
Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to 
limit the amount of heating produced.
â–º
 
Pay constant attention to the coolant 
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP 
warning lamp come on, stop the 
vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as 
possible.
Brakes
Using the engine brake is recommended to limit 
the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances 
are increased when towing a trailer.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more 
susceptible to wind when towing.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys contain a code, which must be 
recognised by the vehicle before starting is 
possible.
If the system malfunctions, indicated by the 
display of a message, the engine will not start.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Starting/Switching off the 
engine
The electronic key must be present in the  passenger compartment.
If the electronic key is not detected, a 
message is displayed.
Move the electronic key so that the engine 
can be started or switched off.
If there is still a problem, refer to the "Key 
not detected - Back-up starting or Back-up 
switch-off" section.  CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Driving
In this case, the malfunction warning lamp 
comes on and disappears once the wheel 
has been replaced by one of uniform size (the 
same as the others), the pressure readjusted 
and the  reinitialisation   carried out.
Driving and manoeuvring 
aids - General 
recommendations
Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in 
any circumstances, replace the need for 
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must comply with the Highway 
Code, must remain in control of the vehicle in 
all circumstances and must be able to retake 
control of it at all times. The driver must adapt 
the speed to climatic conditions, traffic and 
the state of the road.
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly 
monitor traffic conditions, assess the distance 
and relative speed of other vehicles, and 
anticipate their manoeuvres before using the 
direction indicator and changing lanes.
These systems do not make it possible to 
exceed the laws of physics.
Driving aids
You should hold the steering wheel with 
both hands, always use the door and interior 
mirrors, always leave your feet close to the 
pedals and take a break every 2 hours.
Manoeuvring aids
The driver must always check the 
surroundings of the vehicle before and during 
the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the 
mirrors.
Radar(s)
The operation of the radar(s), along with 
any associated functions, may be affected 
by the accumulation of dirt (e.g.
  mud, ice), 
in poor weather conditions (e.g.
  heavy rain, 
snow), or if the bumpers are damaged.
If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact 
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop; 
certain types of paint could interfere with the 
operation of the radar(s).
 
 
Driving aids camera
This camera and its associated functions 
may be impaired or not work if the windscreen 
area in front of the camera is dirty, misty, 
frosty, covered with snow, damaged or 
masked by a sticker.
In humid and cold weather, demist the 
windscreen regularly.
Poor visibility (e.g.
  inadequate street lighting, 
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle 
(e.g.
  headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low 
sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving a 
tunnel, alternating shade and light) can also 
impair detection performance.
In the event of a windscreen replacement, 
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop to recalibrate the camera; 
otherwise, the operation of the associated 
driving aids may be disrupted.
Other cameras
The images from the camera(s) 
displayed on the touch screen or on the 
instrument panel may be distorted by the 
terrain.
In the presence of areas in shade, or in 
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate 
lighting, the image may be darkened and with 
lower contrast.
Obstacles may appear further away than they 
actually are.
Sensors
The operation of the sensors, as well as 
any associated functions, may be disrupted 
by noise pollution such as that emitted by 
noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries, 
pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of   CarM an uals 2 .c o m

distances and result in inappropriate 
acceleration or braking of the vehicle.
Pay particular attention:
– When motorcycles are present and 
when there are vehicles staggered across the 
traffic lane.
–
 
When entering a tunnel or crossing a 
bridge.
If any of the following malfunctions 
occurs, do not use the system:
–
 
Following an impact on the windscreen 
close to the camera or on the front bumper 
(versions with radar).
–

Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, 
dashes are displayed instead of 
the speed setting.
This warning lamp comes on, accompanied by a message and an 
audible signal, to confirm the malfunction.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Lane positioning assist
For more information, refer to the 
General recommendations on the use 
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
 
 
The system identifies the edges of the traffic lane 
and steers the vehicle to keep it inside this lane 
and maintain the lateral position chosen by the 
driver.
To do this, the system uses a camera placed on 
the upper part of the windscreen.
This system is particularly suited to driving on 
motorways and main roads.

A confirmation message is displayed when 
energy economy mode is entered, and the active 
functions are placed on standby.
If a telephone call is in progress at the 
time, it will be maintained for around 10 
minutes via the audio system’s hands-free 
system.
Exiting the mode
These functions are automatically reactivated the 
next time the vehicle is used.
To restore the use of these functions 
immediately, start the engine and let it run:
–
 
For less than 10 minutes, to use the 
equipment for approximately 5 minutes.
–
 
For more than 10 minutes, to use the 
equipment for approximately 30 minutes.
Let the engine run for the specified duration to 
ensure that the battery charge is sufficient.
T
o recharge the battery, avoid repeatedly or 
continuously restarting the engine.

In the event of a breakdown
Deactivate certain driving aid functions 
(Active Safety Brake, Adaptive cruise control, 
etc.).
Do not exceed the maximum authorised 
speed of 50 mph (80  km/h) or the maximum 
distance of 50 miles (80 km).
Driving with more than one spare wheel of 
this type is prohibited.
The wheel trim from the replaced wheel must 
not be refitted.
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
Have the tightening of the spare wheel's bolts 
and its tyre pressure checked.
Have the punctured tyre examined. After 
inspection, the technician will advise you on 
whether the tyre can be repaired or if it must 
be replaced.
Changing a bulb
In some weather conditions (e.g. low 
temperature or humidity), misting on the 
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps 
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear 
after the lamps have been on for a few 
minutes.
Never look too closely at the light beam 
of LED technology lamps - risk of serious 
eye injury!
 
 
The headlamps have polycarbonate  lenses with a protective coating:
–
 
Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive 
cloth, nor with detergent or solvent 
products.
–
 
Use a sponge and soapy water or a pH 
neutral product.
–
 
When using a high-pressure washer on 
persistent marks, do not keep the lance 
directed towards the headlamps, lamps or 
their edges for too long, so as not to damage 
their protective coating and seals.
Changing a bulb must only be done with 
the ignition off and after the headlamp / 
lamp has been switched off for several 
minutes - risk of serious burns!
Do not touch the bulb directly with your 
fingers; use a lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet 
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the 
headlamp.
