SAFETY
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
System which automatically checks the
pressure of the tyres while driving.
All repairs and changing of
tyres on a wheel fi tted with this
system must be carried out by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you install
a wheel which is not detected by
your vehicle (example: fi tting of snow
tyres), you must have the system re-
initialised by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
This system does not avoid
the need to have the tyre pres-
sures checked regularly (refer
to the "Identifi cation markings" sec-
tion) to ensure that the optimum dy-
namic performance of the vehicle is
maintained and prevent premature
wear of the tyres, particularly in ar-
duous driving conditions (heavy load,
high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Re-
member to check the pressure of the
spare wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to electromagnetic
emissions on a frequency close to
that used by the system.
Sensors fi tted in each valve trigger a
warning in the event of malfunction
(speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).
The spare wheel is not fi tted with a sensor.
This warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the multifunction screen,
accompanied by an audible signal, to
identify the wheel concerned.
)
Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible.
This check must be carried out when the
tyres are cold.
Under-infl ated tyre
The STOP
warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
multifunction screen identifying the
wheel concerned.
)
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so,
avoiding any sudden movement of
the steering wheel and the brakes.
)
Change the damaged wheel (punc-
tured or very defl ated tyre), and
have the tyre pressure checked as
soon as possible.
Puncture
The tyre under-infl ation detec-
tion system is an aid to driv-
ing which does not replace the
need for the driver to be vigilant or to
drive responsibly.
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
A message appears in the multifunc-
tion screen, accompanied by an audible
signal, to identify the wheel or wheels
which are not detected or to indicate a
fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).
This message is also dis-
played when one of the wheels
is away from the vehicle (be-
ing repaired) or when one or more
wheels without a sensor are fi tted.

Activation
Deactivation
)
Press button 1
to deactivate the sys-
tem, the indicator lamp goes off.
Reactivation
)
Press button 1
again to reactivate
the system.
The last value programmed is retained
and the indicator lamp comes on.
Operating limits
The system switches to standby auto-
matically if the sensor does not detect
the vehicle in front correctly (very dif-
fi cult weather conditions, sensor out of
adjustment, ...). A message is displayed
in the multifunction screen.
The vehicle being followed may not be
detected in certain conditions such as,
for example:
- when turning,
- when changing lane,
- when the vehicle in front is either
too far ahead (maximum range of
the sensor: 100 m) or stationary (in
a traffi c jam, ...),
When the vehicle being followed is
much too near (time between the two
vehicles less than 0.5 seconds), the dis-
play remains fi xed at 0.5 seconds.
Alert
Programming the alert value
)
Select the alert value required using
button 2
, in steps of 0.1 second:
- up to increase: "+",
- down to decrease: "-".
Example with a value of 2 seconds:
If the indicator lamp in but-
ton 1
fl ashes, have the sys-
tem checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
This system is not an anti-colli-
sion radar and it does not act of the
movement of your vehicle. It pro-
vides information but cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of the
vigilance and responsibility of the
driver.
)
Press button 1
, the indicator lamp
comes on.
The system is activated but will only op-
erate from 45 mph (70 km/h).
The alert value can be programmed to
between 0.9 second and 2.5 seconds.
The visual alert can be deactivated by
programming a value of 0 second. When the time (in seconds) between
your vehicle and the vehicle in front is
less than the programmed time (alert
value), a visual alert fl ashes.
A safety time of 2 seconds is
recommended in normal driv-
ing conditions (correct traction
and speed) to avoid a collision
in the event of emergency
braking.

DRIVING
VISUAL AND AUDIBLE FRONT
AND/OR REAR PARKING
SENSORS
System consisting of four proximity sen-
sors, installed in the front and/or rear
bumper.
It detects any obstacle (person, vehicle,
tree, barrier ...) located behind the vehi-
cle, however, it will not be able to detect
obstacles located immediately below
the bumper. The parking sensors are switched on
:
- by engaging reverse gear,
- at a speed below 6 mph (10 km/h) in
forward gear.
This is accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and display of the vehicle in the mul-
tifunction screen.
An object, such as a stake, a
roadworks cone or any other
similar object may be detected
at the start of the manoeuvre but may
no longer be detected when the ve-
hicle moves nearer to it. The proximity information is indicated by:
- an audible signal which becomes
more rapid as the vehicle approach-
es the obstacle,
- a graphic in the multifunction screen,
with blocks which move closer to the
vehicle.
The obstacle is located in relation to the
emission of the audible signal by the
speakers; front or rear and right or left.
When the distance between the vehicle
and the obstacle is less than approxi-
mately thirty centimetres, the audible
signal becomes continuous and/or the
"Danger" symbol appears, depending
on the multifunction screen version.

DRIVING
The parking sensor system
cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance
and responsibility on the part
of the driver. The parking sensors are switched off
:
- when you exit reverse gear,
- when the speed is higher than 6 mph
(10 km/h) in forward gear,
- when the vehicle has been station-
ary for more than three seconds in
forward gear.
Deactivation
Operating fault
The system will be deacti-
vated automatically when a
trailer is being towed or when
a bicycle carrier is fi tted (vehicle fi t-
ted with a towbar or bicycle carrier
recommended by PEUGEOT).
Reactivation
)
Press button A
again, the warning
lamp switches off, the system is re-
activated.
)
Press button A
, the warning lamp
comes on, the system is fully deacti-
vated. In bad weather or in winter, en-
sure 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.
When the vehicle is being driven at
a speed below approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h), certain sources of noise
(motorcycles, lorries, pneumatic
drills, ...) may trigger the parking sen-
sor audible signals.
If an operating fault occurs,
this warning lamp is displayed
in the instrument panel and/
or a message appears in
the multifunction screen, ac-
companied by an audible signal (short
beep), when reverse gear is engaged.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
TOWING A TRAILER,
A CARAVAN, ETC.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it
may also be used for towing a trailer.
Driving advice
The maximum towed load on a long in-
cline depends on the gradient and the
ambient temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the cool-
ant temperature.
Side wind
)
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
)
To lower the engine speed, reduce
your speed.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a
long mountain type of descent, the use
of engine braking is recommended.
Tyres
)
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
)
Check the electrical lighting and sig-
nalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will
be deactivated automatically if
a genuine PEUGEOT towbar
is used.
)
If the warning lamp and the
STOP
warning lamp come
on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as
soon as possible.
Towbar suitable for the attachment of a
trailer or caravan with additional lighting
and signalling.
Distribution of loads
)
Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest items are as close
as possible to the axle and the nose
weight approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load
must be reduced by 10 % for every
1 000 metres of altitude. Driving with a trailer places greater de-
mands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
We recommend the use of
genuine PEUGEOT towbars
and their harnesses that have
been tested and approved from the
design stage of your vehicle, and that
the fi tting of the towbar is entrusted
to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative
that it is fi tted in accordance with the
vehicle manufacturer's instructions. Refer to the "Technical Data"
section for details of the
weights and towed loads
which apply to your vehicle.
