Reversing camera
The reversing camera function may be
completed with parking sensors.The reversing camera cannot in any
circumstances be a substitute for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The superimposed representation of guide
lines helps with the manoeuvre.
They are represented by lines marked "on
the ground" and do not allow the position of
the vehicle to be determined relative to tall
obstacles (for example: other vehicles, ...).
Some deformation of the image is normal.
High pressure jet washing
When washing your vehicle, do not
direct the lance within 30 cm of the
camera lens.
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The image is displayed in the touch screen.
The blue lines represent the general direction
of the vehicle (the difference corresponds to
the width of your vehicle without the mirrors).
The red lines represent a distance of about
30 cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
b u m p e r.
The green lines represent distances of about
1 and 2 metres beyond the edge of your
vehicle's rear bumper.
The turquoise blue curves represent the
maximum turning circle. Opening the tailgate causes the display
to disappear.
Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a soft, dry cloth.

Park Assist
For entry into a parking space (parallel
parking) the system does not detect
spaces which are clearly much smaller
or larger than the size of the vehicle.
This "parking assistance" system
is activated automatically during
manoeuvres; it is therefore possible
that a symbol comes on in the screen,
accompanied by an audible signal,
without affecting the manoeuvre.The selection of the type of manoeuvre
(entering or exiting a parallel parking
space) prevents a change to STOP
mode of Stop & Start.
In STOP mode, this selection restarts
the engine.
The Park Assist system cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of
their vehicle ensuring that the space
remains clear during the manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors
may not detect small obstacles located
in their blind spots. During a manoeuvre the steering wheel
turns quickly: do not hold the steering
wheel, do not place your hand between
the spokes of the steering wheel and
take care with loose and bulky clothing,
scarves, handbags... There is a risk of
injury.
The driver can take back control of the steering
at any time.
Changing tyre sizes (out-size tyres,
winter tyres, ...) can inter fere with
the correct operation of the parking
assistance system. The system provides assistance in entering and
exiting a parking space when parallel parking.
The system detects a parking space and then
provides assistance with the parallel parking
manoeuvres.
It controls the steering and provides visual and
audible information to the driver.
The driver manages the accelerator, brakes,
gears and the clutch in the case of a manual
gearbox.

In bad weather and in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered by
road dirt, ice or snow.
In the event of a fault, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the system is deactivated during a
manoeuvre, the drive should reactivate
it manually to repeat the measurement. If the lateral distance between your vehicle
and the space is too great, the system may
not be able to measure the space.
Anything projecting beyond the envelope
of the vehicle (long or wide load) is not
taken into account by the Park Assist
system during a manoeuvre.
Deactivation
A message is displayed in the screen.
The driver then takes back control of the
vehicle's steering.
The system is deactivated automatically:
-
on switching off the ignition,
- if the engine stalls,
- if no manoeuvre is started within 5 minutes
of selection of the type of manoeuvre,
- after a prolonged stop of the vehicle during
a manoeuvre,
- if the road wheel anti-spin regulation (ASR)
is triggered,
- if the speed of the vehicle exceeds the
stated limit,
- when the driver interrupts movement of the
steering wheel,
- if the driver presses the Park Assist
control,
- if correct positioning of the vehicle is not
possible (too many manoeuvres needed to
insert or extract the vehicle),
- if the driver's door is open,
- if one of the front wheels encounters an
obstacle.
Switching off
The system is switched off automatically:
- when towing a trailer,
- if the driver's door is opened,
- if the speed of the vehicle is above 42 mph
(70 km/h).
To switch the system of for a prolonged period,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop. This warning lamp is displayed
in the instrument panel and/or a
message appears in the screen,
accompanied by an audible
signal (short beep).
The indicator lamp in the control flashes for a
few seconds. If the problem occurs while using
the system, the indicator lamp goes off.
These warning lamps
indicate a fault with the power
steering.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Never look at the laser sensor through
an optical instrument (magnifying glass,
microscope...) at a distance of less than
10 centimetres: risk of eye injury.
Active City Brake
Principle
A preventive driving assistance system that, using
a sensor located at the top of the windscreen,
automatically applies the vehicle's brakes if behind
a vehicle in the same lane that is slowing down
rapidly, stopping or is stationary.
The objective is to avoid a collision or reduce the
speed of impact.
The Active City Brake system can in no circumstances
replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Operation
Required conditions:
- Vehicles driving in the same lane.
- Not in too pronounced a bend.
- Speed of the vehicle between 3 and
18 mph (5 and 30 km).
- Braking assistance systems (ABS, EBFD,
EBA) in working order.
- Trajectory control systems (ASR, DSC) in
working order and not deactivated.
- Operation of Active City Brake not
triggered in the previous 10 seconds.
During detection:
-
Display of a message.
- Illumination of the brake lamps.
The automatic braking occurs later than when
normal by the driver and only takes place if
the driver fails to apply the brakes at all or
sufficiently firmly, or to take avoiding action.

Switching off:
Check the "Automatic emergency braking
deactivated " box.
The last selection remains in memory when the
ignition is switched off.
If the automatic emergency braking function is
deactivated, following each start a temporary
message will be displayed to signal this
once a speed threshold (6 mph - 10 km/h) is
exceeded.
To deactivate:
- Following an impact to the windscreen
close to the sensor.
- When towing a trailer.
- When the vehicle is being towed.
To check (whether it is necessary to deactivate
the function before):
- crossing a toll payment barrier.
- going through an automatic car wash.
Advice
To clean or clear: from the top of the
windscreen, any dirt, masking deposits or
accumulation of mist on the windscreen, any
stickers or leaves obstructing the field of vision
of the laser, as well as accumulations of snow
on the bonnet that could inter fere with the
perception of risks and so the measurement.
If the laser is obscured, a message appears
to suggest cleaning and/or demisting the
windscreen.
Remain particularly vigilant when driving
in poor weather (very heavy rain, hail, fog,
snow…) as braking distances increase while
the laser's calculation parameters stay the
same.Maintenance
Check that the sensor is not obscured.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
- The message " Automatic braking system
fault " accompanied by an audible signal
indicating that a fault has been detected.
- Following an impact, the system is
automatically put out of service, it no longer
works. The system detects the deployment
of airbags.
Class 1M Laser Product : The laser
rays are invisible, do not look at it
directly with an optical instrument
(magnifying glass, microscope…) as
there is a risk of eye injury.

In good or rainy weather, both day
and night, the front foglamps and the
rear foglamp are prohibited. In these
situations, the power of their beams
may dazzle other drivers. They should
only be used in fog or snow.
In these weather conditions, it is your
responsibility to switch on the foglamps
and dipped beam headlamps manually
as the sunshine sensor may detect
sufficient light.
Do not forget to switch off the front
foglamps and the rear foglamp when
they are no longer necessary.Switching on the lamps
after the ignition is
switched off
To reactivate the lighting control, rotate
the ring to the "0" position - lamps off,
then to the desired position.
On opening the driver's door a
temporary audible signal warns the
driver that the lighting is on.
The lamps, with the exception of the
sidelamps, switch off automatically after
a maximum duration of thirty minutes to
prevent discharging of the battery.
Switching off the lamps
when the ignition is
switched off
On switching off the ignition, all of the
lamps turn off immediately, except for
dipped beam if guide-me-home lighting
is activated.

Towing a trailer
We recommend the use of genuine
PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved
from the design stage of your vehicle,
and that the fitting of the towbar is
entrusted to a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it may
also be used for towing a trailer. Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
PEUGEOT towbar is used.
