Practical information
7Maximum load distributed over the
transverse roof bars, for a loading height
not exceeding 40 cm (except bicycle carrier):
75

kg.
As this value may change, please verify the
maximum load quoted in the guide supplied
with the roof bars.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the speed
of the vehicle to the profile of the road to
avoid damaging the roof bars and the fixings
on the vehicle.
Be sure to refer to national legislation in order
to comply with the regulations for transporting
objects that are longer than the vehicle.
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as close
as possible to the roof.
Secure the load firmly.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the effects of side winds and its
stability may be affected.
Regularly check the security and tight
fastening of the roof bars, at least before each
trip.
Remove the roof bars once they are no longer
needed.
Direct fitting on roof

The transverse bars must only be fixed at the
four anchorage points located on the roof frame.
These points are concealed by the vehicle doors
when the doors are closed.
The roof bar fixings have a stud which must be
inserted into the opening of each anchorage
point.
Bonnet
Stop & Start
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
you must switch off the ignition to avoid any
risk of the engine restarting automatically.
Take care with objects or clothing that could
be caught in the blades of the cooling fan
or in certain moving components - risk of
strangulation and serious injury!
The location of the interior bonnet release lever prevents the bonnet being
opened when the left-hand front door is
closed.
When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the bonnet stay
with care (risk of burns), using the protected
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.
Cooling of the engine when stopped
The engine cooling fan may start after
the engine has been switched off.
Take care with objects or clothing that
could be caught in the blades of the fan!

Bluetooth® audio system
the passenger compartment for optimum
performance.
The Arkamys
© software installed in your audio
system processes the digital signals of all
the media players (radio, CD, MP3...) and
makes it possible to recreate a natural sound
setting, with a harmonious placement of the
instruments and voices in space, facing the
passengers, positioned at the height of the
windscreen.
Frequently asked
questions
The following information groups together the answers to the most frequently asked questions
concerning your audio system.
There is a difference in sound quality
between the different audio sources (radio,
CD, etc.).
To allow for optimal listening quality, the audio
settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience,
Loudness) can be tailored to different sound
sources, which can generate audible differences
when changing source (radio, CD, etc.).
Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to
the sources listened to. It is advisable to set
the AUDIO functions (Bass, Treble, Front-Rear
Fader, Left-Right Balance) to the middle position,
select the musical ambience "None" and set the loudness correction to the "Active" position in CD
mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
When changing the settings for treble and
bass, the ambience setting is deselected.
When changing the ambience setting, treble
and bass are reset to zero.
Choosing an ambience imposes settings for
treble and bass. Modifying one without the other
is not possible.
Modify the treble and bass settings or the
ambience setting to obtain the desired sound
quality.
When changing the balance setting,
distribution is deselected.
Choosing a distribution setting imposes a
balance setting. Modifying one without the other
is not possible.
Modify the balance or distribution settings to
obtain the desired sound quality.
The reception quality of the tuned radio
station gradually deteriorates or the stored
stations are not working (no sound, 87.5 Mhz
is displayed, etc.).
1.The vehicle is too far from the transmitter of
the station or no transmitter is present in the
geographical area.
Activate the RDS mode and start a new search
for the station so that the system can check
whether a stronger transmitter is available in the
geographic area.
2.The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks, etc.) block reception,
including in RDS tracking mode.This phenomenon is normal and does not
indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
3.The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for
example when going through an automatic car
wash or in an underground car park).
Have the antenna checked by the network
PEUGEOT.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to 2
seconds in radio
mode.
During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS
searches for another frequency giving better
reception of the station.
Switch off the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too frequent and always on the same route.
The traffic announcement (TA) is displayed. I
do not receive any traffic information.
The radio station does not broadcast traffic
information.
Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffic
information.
The stored stations are not found (no sound,
87.5 MHz is displayed, etc.).
An incorrect waveband is selected.
Press the BAND button to return to the
waveband on which the stations are stored.
The CD is ejected every time or is not played.
The CD is upside down, cannot be read, does
not contain audio files or contains audio files
of a format that cannot be played by the audio
system.
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating system
not recognised by the audio system.
