Automatic illumination
When the lighting control stalk ring is in
the AUTO position, the sidelamps and
dipped beam headlamps are switched on
automatically, without any action on the part of
the driver, when a low level of ambient light is
detected.
As soon as the level of light becomes sufficient
again, the lights are switched off automatically.
The sensor is located at the bottom of the
windscreen.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, as the
associated functions would no longer be
controlled.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may
detect sufficient light. The headlamps may
not come on automatically.
Automatic switching off

position, if the ignition key is in the "LOCK" or
"ACC" position or is removed, the headlamps
will automatically switch off when the driver's
door is opened .

Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be checked, even between two
services.
This system must be checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
