Safety
5General safety
recommendations
Do not remove the labels attached in
different places on your vehicle. They
include safety warnings as well as
identification information for the vehicle.
For all work on your vehicle, use a
qualified workshop that has the technical
information, skills and equipment required, all
of which a PEUGEOT dealer is able to
provide.
Depending on country regulations,
certain safety equipment may be
mandatory: high visibility safety vests,
warning triangles, breathalysers, spare bulbs,
spare fuses, fire extinguisher, first aid kit, mud
flaps at the rear of the vehicle, etc.
Installing electrical accessories:
– The fitting of electrical equipment or
accessories not approved by PEUGEOT
may
cause excessive current consumption and
faults and failures with the electrical system
of your vehicle. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer
for information on the range of approved
accessories.
–

As a safety measure, access to the
diagnostic socket, used for the vehicle's
electronic systems, is reserved strictly for
PEUGEOT dealers or qualified workshops,
equipped with the special tools required (risk
of malfunctions of the vehicle's electronic
systems that could cause breakdowns or
serious accidents). The Manufacturer cannot
be held responsible if this advice is not
followed.
–

Any modification or adaptation not intended
or authorised by PEUGEOT

or carried out
without meeting the technical requirements
defined by the Manufacturer will result in the
suspension of the commercial warranty.
Installation of accessory radio
communication transmitters
Before installing a radio communication
transmitter with an external aerial, you must
without fail contact a PEUGEOT dealer for
the specification of transmitters which can
be fitted (frequency, maximum power, aerial
position, specific installation requirements),
in line with the Vehicle Electromagnetic
Compatibility Directive (2004/104/EC).
Declarations of conformity for radio
equipment
The relevant certificates are available on the
http://public.servicebox.peugeot.com/APddb/
website.
Hazard warning lamps



► Pressing this red button causes all the
direction indicators to flash.
They can work with the ignition switched off.
Automatic operation of hazard warning lamps

Driving
Adjusting the audible signalDepending on version, with
PEUGEOT Connect Radio or
PEUGEOT Connect Nav, pressing this button
opens the window for adjusting the volume of
the audible signal.
Visual assistance

This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars on the screen whose location
represents the distance between the obstacle
and the vehicle (white: more distant, orange:
close, red: very close).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
Supplementing the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the
vehicle is below 6 mph (10
km/h).
Front parking sensor operation is suspended if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in
forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected
or the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) locates the obstacle relative to
the vehicle, in front or behind it.
Side parking sensors

Using four additional sensors located on the
sides of the bumpers, the system records the
position of obstacles during the manoeuvre and
indicates them when they are located alongside
the vehicle.
Only fixed obstacles are indicated
correctly. Moving obstacles detected at
the beginning of the manoeuvre may be
indicated mistakenly, while moving obstacles
that appear alongside the vehicle but were
not previously recorded will not be indicated.
Objects memorised during the
manoeuvre will no longer be stored after
switching off the ignition.
Deactivation/Activation
The settings are changed via the Driving/Vehicle touch screen
menu.
The system status is memorised when the
ignition is switched off.


The rear parking sensors system will be deactivated automatically if a trailer or
bicycle carrier is connected to a towing device
installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's recommendations.
In this case, the outline of a trailer is displayed
at the rear of the image of the vehicle.
The parking sensors are deactivated while the
Park Assist function is measuring a space.
For more information on the Park
Assist
function, refer to the corresponding
section.
When starting the vehicle, the graphic
and audible aids are only available after
the touch screen has started up.
Operating limits
If the boot is heavily loaded, the vehicle may tilt,
affecting distance measurements.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction when
changing into reverse gear, one of
these warning lamps lights up on the instrument
panel, accompanied by the display of a message
and an audible signal (short beep).
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
