Ease of use and comfort
3Avoid 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
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. Its specific active additive
helps protect against polluting gases and bad
smells.
►

T

o ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Manufacturer’s service schedule.
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
system, refer to the corresponding
section.
ECO driving mode
Selecting this mode reduces electrical
energy consumption, but restricts the
performance of the heating and air
conditioning systems, although it does not
deactivate them.

To avoid dazzling other road users, the height
of these headlamp beams must be adjusted
according to the load in the vehicle.

This information is provided as a guide only.
Depending on version, the unused positions may
be required.
If the driver's door is opened, a temporary
audible signal warns the driver that the lamps
are on.
They will go off automatically after a period
of time that depends on the level of charge in
the battery (entering energy economy mode).
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear
after the lamps have been on for a few
minutes.
Never look too closely at the light beam
of LED technology lamps - risk of serious
eye injury!


Travelling abroad
Vehicles equipped with manual
headlamp beam height adjustment:
If planning to use your vehicle in a country
that drives on the other side of the road, the
dipped beam headlamps must be adjusted to
avoid dazzling oncoming drivers. Consult a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Daytime running lamps/

Safety
5Data processing
All processing of personal information by
the "Peugeot Connect SOS" system (PE112)
complies with the framework for protection
of personal information established by
Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR) and Directive
2002/58/EC of the European Parliament
and the Council, and in particular, seeks to
protect the vital interests of the data subject,
in accordance with Article
6.1, paragraph d) of
Regulation 2016/679.
Personal information processing is strictly
limited to the management of the "Peugeot
Connect SOS" system used with the “112”
European single emergency call number.
The "Peugeot Connect SOS" system is able
to collect and process only the following
data relating to the vehicle: chassis number,
type (passenger vehicle or light commercial
vehicle), fuel type or power source, most
recent three locations and direction of travel,
and a timestamped log file recording the
automatic activation of the system.
The recipients of the processed data are the
emergency call handling centres designated
by the relevant national authorities in the
territory in which they are located, enabling
priority reception and handling of calls to the
“112” emergency number.
* According to the geographic coverage of ‘Peugeot Connect SOS’, ‘Peugeot Connect Assistance’ and the official national language chosen by the owner
of the vehicle.
The list of countries covered and telematic services provided is availab\
le from dealers or on the website for your country
.
Data storage
Data contained in the system’s memory
is not accessible from outside the system until
a call is made. The system is not traceable
and is not continuously monitored in its
normal operating mode.
The data in the system's internal memory is
automatically and continuously erased. Only
the vehicle’s three most recent locations are
stored.
When an emergency call is triggered, the data
log is stored for no more than 13
hours.
Access to data
You have the right to access the data
and, if necessary, submit a request to
rectify, erase or restrict the processing of
any personal information not processed in
accordance with the provisions of Regulation
2016/679 (GDPR). Third parties to which data
has been communicated shall be notified of
any rectification, erasure or restriction carried
out in accordance with the aforementioned
Directive, unless doing so would be
impossible or require a disproportionate effort.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint
with the relevant data protection authority.
Peugeot Connect

simultaneously pressing the 2 buttons, then
press the "Peugeot Connect Assistance"
button to confirm.
If you purchased your vehicle outside the
PEUGEOT dealer network, we invite you
to have a dealer check the configuration of
these services and, if desired, modify them to
suit your wishes. In a multilingual country,
configuration is possible in the official national
language of your choice.

1. StopInserting/removing the key, steering column
locked.
2. Ignition on Steering column unlocked, ignition on,
preheating (Diesel), switching the engine on.
3. Starting
Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key or the remote control. This would weigh
down on its shaft in the ignition switch and
could cause a malfunction.
Ignition on position
It allows the use of the vehicle's electric
equipment or the charging of accessories.
Once the state of charge of the battery drops to
the reserve level, the system switches to energy
economy mode. The power supply is cut off
automatically to preserve the remaining battery
charge.
Starting the engine
With the parking brake applied:
► With a manual gearbox, place the gear lever
in neutral then fully depress the clutch pedal.
►

With an
automatic gearbox, place the gear
selector in mode N or P then depress the brake
pedal.
►

Insert the key into the ignition switch; the
system recognises the code.
►


Unlock
the steering column by simultaneously
turning the steering wheel and the key.
In certain cases, you may need to apply
significant force to move the steering
wheel (e.g.
wheels turned to full lock).
►

With a
petrol engine , operate the starter
motor by turning the key to position 3 without
pressing the accelerator pedal, until the engine
starts. Once the engine has started, release the
key and allow it to return to position 2.
Petrol engines
After a cold start, preheating the catalytic
converter can cause noticeable engine
vibrations, for anything up to 2 minutes
(accelerated idle speed).
►

With a
Diesel engine, turn the key to position
2, to

activate the engine preheating system.
Wait until this warning lamp goes off on
the instrument panel, then turn the key to
position 3 without pressing the accelerator pedal,
to operate the starter motor. Once the engine
has started, release the key and allow it to return
to position 2.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp
may stay on for a longer period. When
the engine is hot, the warning lamp does not
come on.
In mild conditions, do not leave the engine
to warm up while stationary, but move off
straight away and drive at moderate speed.
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition. Wait a few
seconds before operating the starter motor
again. If the engine does not start after a few
attempts, do not keep trying - risk of
damaging the starter motor and the engine!
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
