Operation
The alert is given by a warning lamp which
comes on in the door mirror on the side in
question as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry,
bicycle - is detected.
The following conditions must be met for this:
-
a
ll vehicles are moving in the same
direction and in adjacent lanes,
-

t
he speed of your vehicle is between 7 and
87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),
-

y
ou overtake a vehicle with a speed
difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),
-

a v
ehicle overtakes you with a speed
difference of less than 15 mph (25 km/h),
-

t
he traffic is flowing normally,
-

i
n the case of an overtaking manoeuvre,
if this is prolonged and the vehicle being
overtaken remains in the blind spot,
-

y
ou are driving on a straight or slightly
curved road,
-

y
our vehicle is not pulling a trailer,
a


caravan... No alert will be given in the following situations:
-

i
n the presence of non-moving objects
(parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps,
road signs...),
-

w
ith vehicles moving in the opposite
direction,
-

d
riving on a winding road or a sharp corner,-

w
hen overtaking (or being overtaken by) a
very long vehicle (lorry, coach...) which is
at the same time detected at the rear in the
blind spot angle and present in the driver's
forward field of vision,
-

i
n very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in
front and behind are confused with a lorry
or a stationary object,
-

w
hen overtaking quickly.

The images provided by the camera(s)
may be distorted by the relief.
In the presence of areas in shade,
or in conditions of bright sunlight or
inadequate lighting, the image may be
darkened and with lower contrast.
Maintenance
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors and camera lenses are not covered
with mud, ice or snow.
Check the cleanliness of the camera lenses
regularly.
If necessary, clean the camera lenses with a
soft, dry cloth.
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, keep the tip of the
lance at least 30 cm from the cameras.
This system is a visual aid that cannot
in any circumstances replace the need
for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Principle of image reconstruction
Using one or both cameras, this system
records the vehicle's surroundings during the
manoeuvre.
An image from above your vehicle in its near
surroundings is reconstructed in real time, as
you progress in the manoeuvre.
This representation facilitates the alignment of
your vehicle when parking and allows obstacles
close to the vehicle to be seen.
This reconstructed view is automatically
deleted if the vehicle remains stationary for
too


long. With Visiopark 2, the view is reconstructed
using both cameras, when going for ward and
when reversing.
On activation of the system, it is possible
that the central view is not reconstructed. If
the system is activated after the vehicle has
already been driven, the central view may be
completely reconstructed.

Before each use
Check that the towball is correctly fitted, verifying the follow points:
- t he towball is correctly engaged (position A ),
-

t
he safety lock is on and the key removed; the trigger can no longer be operated,
-

t
he towball must not be able to move in its carrier; test by shaking it with your hand.
If the towball is not locked, the trailer could separate - Risk of an accident!
During use
Never release the locking system with a trailer or load carrier on the towball.
Never exceed the maximum authorised weight for the vehicle plus trailer - the Gross Train
Weight or GTW.
You must not exceed the maximum nose weight on the towbar: if exceeded, this could result
in detachment from the vehicle - Risk of an accident!
Check that the trailer lighting and signalling work correctly.
Before setting off, check the adjustment of the headlamp beam height.
For more information on Adjusting the headlamp beam height , refer to the corresponding
section.
Following use
When travelling without a trailer or load on a towbar-mounted carrier, the towball must be
removed and the protective plug inserted in the carrier. This measure applies particularly
where the towball might obscure visibility of the number plate or its lighting.
Maintenance
Correct operation is only possible if the towball
and its carrier are kept clean.
Before cleaning the vehicle with a high-
pressure jet wash, the towball must be removed
and the protective plug fitted to the carrier.
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for any work on the towbar system.

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service
schedule for the checking interval
for this component.
Electric parking
brake
This system does not require any
routine servicing. However, in
the event of a problem, have the
system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.For more information on the Electric parking
brake
, refer to the corresponding section.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service
schedule for the checking interval
for this component.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
units as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness,
or in wintry conditions, ice can form
on the brake discs and pads: braking
efficiency may be reduced. Make light
brake applications to dry and defrost
the brakes.
have the condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.

Never store bottles of AdBlue
® in your
vehicle. Before topping-up, in wintry conditions, ensure
that the temperature is above -11°C. Other wise
the AdBlue
® may be frozen and so cannot be
poured into its tank.
Park your vehicle in a warmer area for a
few

hours to allow the top-up to be carried out.
AdBlue
® freezes at about -11°C and
deteriorates above 25°C. It is recommended
that bottles be stored in a cool area and
protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept
for at least a year.
If the additive has frozen, it can be used once it
has completely thawed out.
Do not dispose of AdBlue
® bottles or
containers in the household waste.
Place them in a container provided for
this purpose or take them to your dealer.

or abrasive cloth, nor with a
detergent or solvent product,
F

u

pH neutral product,
F

w
hen using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep
the lance directed towards the
lamps or their edges for too long,
so as not to damage their protective
coating and seals.
Changing a bulb should only be done
after the headlamp has been switched
off for several minutes (risk of serious
burns).
F

D
o not touch the bulb directly with
your fingers, use a lint-free cloth.
It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs to avoid
damaging the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specification.Front lamps
