Automatic "electrochrome" model
In order to ensure optimum visibility during
your manoeuvres, the mirror lightens
automatically when reverse gear is
engaged.
This system automatically and progressively
changes between day and night use by means
of a sensor measuring the light coming from the
rear of the vehicle.
Front seats
Before moving the seat backwards,
ensure that there is no object or person in
the way, preventing full travel of the seat.
There is a risk of trapping or pinching
passengers if present in the rear seats
or jamming the seat if large objects are
placed on the floor behind the seat.

Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
In order for these systems to be fully effective,
follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
T
o ensure that the air is distributed evenly,
keep the external air intake grilles at the
base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the
vents, the air outlets and the air extractor
in the boot free from obstructions.
F
D
o not cover the sunshine sensor,
located on the dashboard; this is used for
regulation of the automatic air conditioning
system.
F
O
perate the air conditioning system for
at least 5 to 10
minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in per fect working order.
F
E
nsure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and replace
the filter elements periodically. We
recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment filter. Thanks to
its special active additive, it helps both to
purify the air breathed by the occupants
and to keep the passenger compartment
clean (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad
odours and greasy deposits). F
T o ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly
as recommended in the Warranty and
Maintenance Record.
F
I
f the system does not produce cold air,
switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep
gradient in high temperatures, switching off
the air conditioning increases the available
engine power and so improves the towing
ability.
To avoid the windows misting up and
deterioration in the quality of the air:
-
d
o not drive for too long with the
ventilation switched off.
-
d
o not keep air recirculation set for an
extended period. If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very high, first
ventilate the passenger compartment for
a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
The condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge of
water under the vehicle which is per fectly
normal.
Stop & Star t
The heating and air conditioning systems
only work when the engine is running.
To maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment, you may
temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system.
For more information on Stop & Star t ,
refer to the corresponding section.

F
T
urn the ring rear wards to switch off the
foglamps, the sidelamps will then switch off. In good or rainy weather, both day and
night, using the front foglamps and the
rear foglamp is prohibited. In these
situations, the power of their beams may
dazzle other drivers. They should only be
used in fog or falling 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 turn off the front foglamps
and the rear foglamp as soon as they are
no longer necessary.
Switching off of the lighting when the
ignition is switched off
On switching off the ignition, all of the
lighting turns off immediately, except for
dipped beam if automatic guide-me-home
lighting is activated.
Switching on the lighting after the
ignition is switched off
To reactivate the lighting control, set the
ring to 0 – lamps off, then to the desired
position.
When the driver's door is opened, a
temporary audible signal warns you that
the vehicle's lighting is on.

Three flashes
Move the stalk briefly upwards or downwards,
without going beyond the point of resistance;
the corresponding direction indicators will flash
three times.This function can be used at any speed,
but it is particularly useful for changing
lane on fast roads.
Automatic illumination of
headlampsIf you forget to cancel the direction
indicators for more than 20 seconds, the
volume of the audible signal will increase if
the speed is above 40
mph (60 km/h).When a low level of ambient light is detected
by a sunshine sensor, the number plate lamps,
sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are
switched on automatically, without any action
on the part of the driver. They can also come
on if rain is detected, at the same time as
automatic operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a
sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers
are switched off, the lamps are switched off
automatically.
Switching on
F Turn the ring to the AUTO
position.
Activation of the function is accompanied by
a message in the screen.
Switching off
F Turn the ring to another position. Deactivation of the function is accompanied
by a message in the screen.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may
detect sufficient light. In this case, the
lighting will not come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, linked
with the rain sensor and located in the
centre of the windscreen behind the rear
view mirror; the associated functions
would no longer be controlled.
Automatic guide-me-home
lighting
Association with automatic illumination of
headlamps provides the guide-me-home
lighting with the following additional options:
-
s
election of the lighting duration of 15, 30 or
60
seconds,
-
a
utomatic activation of guide-me-home
lighting when the automatic illumination of
headlamps is in operation.

Advice
For the airbags to be fully effective,
observe the safety recommendations
below.
Adopt a normal and upright sitting position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the occupants
and the airbags (a child, pet, object, etc.), nor
fix or attach anything close to or in the way of
the airbag release trajectory; this could cause
injuries during their deployment.
Never modify the original definition of your
vehicle, particularly in the area directly
around the airbags.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen, have the airbag systems checked.
All work on the airbag system must be carried
out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned
are obser ved, a risk of injury or of minor
burns to the head, chest or arms when an
airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out. The
bag inflates almost instantly (within a few
milliseconds) then deflates within the same
time discharging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its
spokes or resting your hands on the centre
part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the
dashboard.
Do not smoke as deployment of the airbags
can cause burns or the risk of injury from a
cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or
hit it violently.
Do not fit or attach anything to the steering
wheel or dashboard, this could cause injuries
in case of airbag deployment.
Curtain airbags
Do not attach anything or hang anything to
the roof, as this could cause head injuries
when the curtain airbag is deployed.
If fitted to your vehicle, do not remove the
grab handles installed on the roof, they play a
part in securing the curtain airbags.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment of the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not attach or hang anything to the seat
backrests (clothes, etc.) as this could cause
injuries to the thorax or arm when the lateral
airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.
The vehicle's front door panels include side
impact sensors.
A damaged door or any unauthorised or
incorrectly executed work (modification or
repair) on the front doors or their interior trim
could compromise the operation of these
sensors – Risk of malfunction of the lateral
airbags!
Such work must only be done by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
