Driving
6Parking sensors
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids.


Using sensors located in the bumper, this
system signals the proximity of obstacles
(e.g.
pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier) present in
their field of detection.
Rear parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
gear, which is confirmed by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when disengaging
reverse gear.
Audible assistance

The system signals the presence of obstacles
within the sensors’ detection zone. The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
which increases as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than about thirty
centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
Visual assistance

This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars on the screen that represent the
distance between the obstacle and the vehicle
(white: more distant, orange: close, red: very
close).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the front
parking sensors are triggered when an obstacle
is detected in front and the speed of the vehicle
is still below 6 mph (10
km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if the
vehicle stops for more than three seconds in
forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected
or when the speed of the vehicle exceeds 6
mph
(10
km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) locates the obstacle in relation to
the vehicle, in the vehicle trajectory, in front or
behind.
Deactivation/Activation
It is set via the vehicle configuration menu.
The system status is memorised when the
ignition is switched off.
The rear parking sensors system will be deactivated automatically if a trailer or
bicycle carrier is connected to a towing device
installed in accordance with the
manufacturer's recommendations.
The parking sensors are deactivated while the
Park Assist function is measuring a space.
For more information on the Park Assist, refer
to the corresponding section.
Operating limits
If the boot is heavily loaded, the vehicle may tilt,
affecting distance measurements.

(to inflate: set switch B to position "I"; to deflate:
set switch B to position "O" and press button C),
following the vehicle's tyre pressure label.
If, after approximately seven minutes,
this pressure is not reached, this
indicates that the tyre is irreparable; contact a

– the jack for any other purpose than
lifting the vehicle,

160
In the event of a breakdown
If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, when
tightening the bolts on fitting, it is normal to
notice that the washers do not come into
contact with the "space-saver" spare wheel.
The wheel is secured by the conical contact
of each bolt.


► Put the wheel in place on the hub.
► Screw in the bolts by hand as far as possible.

only.
►

Refit
the bolt cover(s) (depending on version).
►

Store the tools in the support box.
After changing a wheel
To store the punctured wheel in the boot
correctly, first remove the central cover.
When using the "space-saver" type spare
wheel, do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).
Have the tightening of the bolts and the
pressure of the spare wheel checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired and
replace it on the vehicle as soon as possible.
If your vehicle has tyre under-inflation
detection, check the tyre pressures and
reinitialise the system.
For more information on Tyre under-inflation
detection, refer to the corresponding section.
Tyre inflation pressures are indicated on this label.
For more information on Identification
markings, particularly this label, refer to the
corresponding section.
Changing a bulb
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.
The headlamps have polycarbonate lenses with a protective coating:
– Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive
cloth, nor with detergent or solvent
products.
– Use a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product.
– When using a high-pressure washer on
persistent marks, do not keep the lance
directed towards the headlamps, lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to damage
their protective coating and seals.
Changing a bulb must only be done with
the ignition off and after the headlamp /
lamp has been switched off for several
minutes - risk of serious burns!
Do not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers; use a lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a new bulb
of the same type and specification. To avoid
lighting imbalance, replace the bulbs in pairs.

164
In the event of a breakdown

front lamp.
►
Unclip the trim by pulling at the top (notch).

In the event of a breakdown
8Follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.
It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
►

Switch the ignition off.
►


Switch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, lighting, wipers, etc.).


► Switch off charger B before connecting
the cables to the battery, so as to avoid any
dangerous sparks.
►

Ensure that the charger cables are in good
condition.
► Lift the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if the
vehicle has one.
►

Connect the cables of charger B

as follows:
•

the positive (+) red cable to the (+) terminal
of battery

A,
•

the negative (-) black cable to earth point C


on the vehicle.
►

At the end of the charging operation, switch
off charger B

before disconnecting the cables
from battery A.
If this label is present, use only a 12 V
charger to avoid causing irreversible
damage to the electrical components
connected to the Stop & Start system.
24V
12V
Never try to charge a frozen battery - risk
of explosion!
If the battery has frozen, have it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or by a qualified workshop
who will verify that the internal components
have not been damaged and that the case
has not cracked, which would mean a risk of
toxic and corrosive acid leaking.
The Stop & Start system may not be operational during the trip following the
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be
available again after a continuous period of
immobilisation of the vehicle, a period which
depends on the exterior temperature and the
state of charge of the battery (up to about 8
hours).
Disconnecting the battery
In order to maintain an adequate state of charge
for starting the engine, it is recommended that
the battery be disconnected if the vehicle is
taken out of service for a long period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
►

Close all openings (doors, boot, windows,
roof).
►


Switch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, etc.).
►


Switch off the ignition and wait for 4
minutes.
At the battery, it is only necessary to disconnect
the (+) terminal.
