water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly 
normal.
Servicing the ventilation and air 
conditioning system
►  Ensure that the passenger compartment 
filter is in good condition and have the filter 
elements replaced regularly.
We recommend using a composite passenger 
compartment filter. Thanks to its special active 
additive, this type of filter helps to purify the 
air breathed by the occupants and keep the 
passenger compartment clean (by reducing 
allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and 
greasy deposits).
►  To ensure correct operation of the 
air conditioning system, have it checked 
according to the recommendations in the 
Maintenance and Warranty Guide.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems 
only operate when the engine is running.
Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start 
system to maintain a comfortable temperature 
in the passenger compartment.
For more information on the  Stop & Start, 
refer to the corresponding section.
 
► Put the backrest  2 in the upright position and 
push it firmly to latch it home.
►
 
Check that the red indicator is no longer 
visible in the release grip  1
.
►
 
Ensure that the outer seat belts were not 
trapped during the operation.
Please note: an incorrectly latched 
backrest compromises the safety of 
passengers in the event of sudden braking or 
an accident.
The contents of the boot may be thrown 
forward - risk of serious injury!
Heating and Ventilation
Air intake
The air circulating in the passenger compartment 
is filtered and originates either from the 
exterior, via the grille located at the base of the 
windscreen, or from the inside in air recirculation 
mode.
Controls
Depending on version, the controls are 
accessible in the " Air conditioning" touch 
screen menu or are grouped together in the 
control panel on the centre console.
Air distribution 
 
1. Windscreen demisting/defrosting vents
2. Front side window demisting/defrosting vents
3. Adjustable and closable side air vents
4. Adjustable and closable central air vents
5. Air outlets to the front footwells
6. Air outlets to the rear footwells (depending on 
version)
Advice
Using the ventilation and air 
conditioning system
►
 
T
o ensure that 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.
►
 
Do not cover the sunshine sensor located 
on the dashboard; this sensor is used to 
regulate the automatic air conditioning 
system.
►
 
Operate the air conditioning system for at 
least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to 
keep it in perfect working order
.
►
 
If 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, enhancing the towing capacity.
Avoid driving for too long with the  ventilation off or with prolonged operation 
of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and 
deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high 
after the vehicle has stood for a long 
time in the sunshine, air 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.
Condensation created by the air 
conditioning results in a discharge of

Safety
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be 
positioned on the child's shoulder without 
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt 
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
Use a booster seat with backrest, equipped 
with a belt guide at shoulder level.
Additional protections
To prevent accidental opening of the 
doors and rear windows, use the "Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows by 
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of the 
sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
–  a child alone and unattended in a vehicle,
–  a child or an animal in a vehicle which is 
exposed to the sun, with the windows closed,
–  the keys within reach of children inside the 
vehicle.
Child seat at the rear
"Forward facing" or "Rearward 
facing"
 
 
 
Do not fix or attach anything to the steering 
wheel or dashboard, as this could cause 
injuries when the airbags are deployed.
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, contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fix or attach 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.
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof, 
as this could cause head injuries when the 
curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the grab handles installed on 
the roof, as they play a part in securing the 
curtain airbags.
Child seats
The regulations on carrying children are  specific to each country. Refer to the 
legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please observe the 
following recommendations:
–
 
In accordance with European regulations,  all 
children under the age of 12 or less than 4 
ft 1
1” (150 cm) tall must travel in approved 
child seats suited to their weight , on seats 
fitted with a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings.
–
 
Statistically
 , the safest seats in your 
vehicle for carrying children are the rear 
seats.
–
 
Children weighing less than 9 kg must 
travel in the "rear facing" position, whether in 
the front or rear of the vehicle.
It is recommended that children travel 
on the rear seats  of the vehicle:
–
 
‘rear facing’ up to the age of 3,
–
 
‘forward facing’ over the age of 3.
Make sure that the seat belt is correctly 
positioned and tightened.
For child seats with a support leg, ensure that 
the support leg is in firm and steady contact 
with the floor.
Advice
An incorrectly installed child seat  compromises the child's safety in the 
event of an accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt 
buckle under the child seat, as this could 
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the 
harness of child seats, keeping the slack 
relative to the child's body to a minimum, 
even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat 
belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened 
correctly on the child seat and that it secures 
the child seat firmly on the seat of the vehicle. 
If the passenger seat is adjustable, move it 
forwards if necessary.
Remove the head restraint before 
installing a child seat with a backrest on a 
passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored or 
attached securely to prevent it from being 
thrown around the vehicle in the event of 
sharp braking. Refit the head restraint once 
the child seat has been removed.

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
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the 
heaviest items are 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
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing 
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the 
recommended pressures.
Lighting
► 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 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.
►
 
Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to 
limit heating up.
In all cases, pay 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
Braking distances are increased when towing a 
trailer. To avoid overheating the brakes, the use 
of engine braking is recommended.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more 
susceptible to wind when towing.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys include an electronic engine 
immobiliser system, with a code that must be 
recognised in order for starting to be possible.
If the system malfunctions, indicated by the 
display of a message, the engine will not start.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
