F 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 is
running, release the key.
F

W
ith a Diesel engine, turn the key to
position 2 , ignition on, to operate the engine
pre-heating system.
Wait until this warning lamp goes off
in the instrument panel then operate
the starter motor by turning the key
to position 3 without pressing the
accelerator pedal until the engine
starts. Once the engine is running,
release the key.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp can
stay on for a longer period. If the engine is
hot, the warning lamp does not come on.
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition. Wait a few moments
before operating the starter motor again.
If the engine does not start after several
attempts, do not keep trying: you risk
damaging the starter motor or the engine.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop. In temperate conditions, do not leave
the engine at idle to warm up but move
off straight away and drive at moderate
speed.
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. Risk of intoxication and death.
In severe wintry conditions (temperature
below -23°C), the engine should be left
at idle for 4
minutes before moving off to
ensure the correct operation and life of the
mechanical parts of your vehicle, engine
and gearbox.

Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
For your convenience during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
The Stop & Start does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering, etc.
A slight delay between the vehicle
stopping and the engine cutting out may
be noticed.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition with
the button.
With a manual gearbox, when vehicle
speed is below 12 mph (20 km/h) or
the vehicle is stationary (depending
on engine), the Stop & Start warning
lamp comes on in the instrument panel
and the engine goes into standby
automatically when you place the gear
lever in neutral and you release the
clutch pedal.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not activated when:
- T he driver's door is open.

Operating fault
In the event of a cruise control fault, the speed
is cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.When the cruise control is switched on,
be careful if you maintain the pressure on
one of the programmed speed changing
buttons: this may result in a very rapid
change in the speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-

E
nsure that mats are secured correctly.
-

D
o not fit one mat on top of another.
Rear parking sensors
This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
entering the field of detection of sensors
located in the bumper.
Due to blind spots, obstacles of certain types
(posts, roadworks cones, etc.) which were
detected initially will no longer be by the end of
the operation.
This system cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
gear. It is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of which
increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.

Driving

98
This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars in the screen which move
progressively nearer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed in the screen.
Deactivation/Activation
The function is deactivated or activated via the
vehicle configuration menu.
With audio system
The parking sensors can be
configured in the "Personalisation
– Configuration " menu.
With touch screen
The parking sensors can be
configured in the Driving /Vehicle
menu.
The function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed or
a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle fitted with
a towbar or bicycle carrier recommended
by PEUGEOT).
Operating fault
In the event of a system fault when
engaging the reverse gear, this
warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the screen, accompanied
by an audible signal (short beep).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop to have the
system checked. In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow. When reverse gear is engaged, an
audible signal (long beep) indicates that
the sensors may be dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle,
lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger
the audible signals of the parking sensor
system.
