PEUGEOT i-Cockpit

Before going out on the road and to benefit from
the ergonomic layout of the PEUGEOT i-Cockpit,
adjust in the following order:
–
the height of the head restraint,
–


the seat backrest angle,
–


the seat cushion height,
–


the longitudinal position of the seat,
–


the depth and then the height of the steering
wheel,
–


the rear view mirror and door mirrors.
Once these adjustments have been
made, ensure that from your driving
position you can see the "head-up" instrument
panel clearly, over the reduced diameter
steering wheel.
Front head restraints

Mirrors
Door mirrors
Each fitted with an adjustable mirror providing
the lateral rearward vision necessary for
overtaking or parking.

100
Driving
Driving aids
You should hold the steering wheel
with both hands, always use the interior and
exterior rear view mirrors, always keep the
feet close to the pedals and take a break
every two hours.
Manoeuvring aids
The driver must always check the
surroundings of the vehicle before and during
the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the
mirrors.
Radar
The operation of the radar as well as the
associated functions may be impaired through
the accumulation of dirt (mud, frost, etc.), in
certain difficult weather conditions (very heavy
rain, snow) or if the bumper is damaged.
If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop;
certain types of paint could interfere with the
operation of the radar.
Driving aids camera
This camera and its associated functions
may be impaired or not work if the windscreen
area in front of the camera is dirty, misty,
frosty, covered with snow, damaged or
masked by a sticker.
On versions with camera alone, this message
indicates to you that the camera is obstructed:
Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when the
tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or
after a journey of less than 6 miles (10
km) at
moderate speeds).
Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures
shown on the label.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
Under-inflation alert
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and, depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
►

Reduce speed immediately
, avoid excessive
steering movements and avoid sudden braking.
►

Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.
The loss of pressure detected does not always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
►

Using a compressor
, such as the one in
the temporary puncture repair kit, check the
pressures of the four tyres when cold.
►

If it is not possible to make this check
immediately

, drive carefully at reduced speed.
► In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel
(depending on equipment).
The alert is kept active until the system is reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
The system must be reinitialised after any
adjustment to the pressure of one or more tyres,
and after changing one or more wheels.
Before reinitialising the system, make
sure that the pressures of the four tyres
are correct for the conditions of use of the
vehicle and conform to the values written on
the tyre pressure label.
Check the pressures of the four tyres before
performing the reinitialisation.
The system does not advise if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
With the vehicle stationary, the system is
reinitialised via the Driving/V ehicle touch
screen menu.
The reinitialisation is confirmed by the display of
a message and an audible signal.
Malfunction
These warning lamps come on in the event of a malfunction.
A message appears, accompanied by an audible
signal.
In this case, the tyre under-inflation monitoring
function is no longer performed.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Driving and manoeuvring
aids - General
recommendations
Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must comply with the Highway
Code, must remain in control of the vehicle in
all circumstances and must be able to retake
control of it at all times. The driver must adapt
the speed to climactic conditions, traffic and
the state of the road.
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly
check the traffic, to assess the relative
distances and speeds of other vehicles and to
anticipate their movements before indicating
and changing lane.
The systems cannot exceed the limits of the
laws of physics.

104
Driving
► press button 5 to display the memorised
speed settings,
► press the button for the desired speed
setting.
The selection screen closes after a few
moments.
This setting becomes the new limit speed.
To modify the cruise speed setting based on the speed suggested by the Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation, as shown on the
instrument panel:
► Press button 5 once; a message is displayed
to confirm the memorisation request.
► Press button 5 again to save the suggested
speed.
The speed is immediately shown on the
instrument panel as the new speed setting.
Temporarily exceeding the
speed setting
► Press the accelerator pedal down fully.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and
the displayed speed setting flashes.
► Release the accelerator pedal to return to
below the programmed speed.
When the limit speed is exceeded but this is not
due to action by the driver (in case of a steep
slope, for example), an audible signal triggers
immediately.
On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will

► Press button 2again to confirm and save the
new speed setting.
The display then reverts to its previous state.
Speed limiter
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
This system prevents the vehicle from
exceeding the speed programmed by the
driver (speed setting).
The speed limiter is switched on manually.
The minimum speed setting is 19 mph (30
km/h).
The speed setting remains in the system
memory when the ignition is switched off.

You do not have to switch the speed limiter on in
order to set the speed.
To modify the limit speed setting based on the
vehicle’s current speed:
►

Briefly press button
2 or 3 to change the
value in steps of +
or - 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
►

Press and hold button

2
or 3 to change the
value in steps of +
or - 5 mph (8 km/h).
To modify the limit speed setting using memorised speeds and from the touch screen:

108
Driving
Mode D or M must be selected.
► With the vehicle moving, press one of the
buttons 2 or 3: the current speed of your vehicle
becomes the cruise speed setting.
– the current speed of your vehicle, if it is over
19 mph (30 km/h),
– 19 mph (30 km/h), if it is below 19 mph
(30 km/h).
Saving your settings
Switching off the ignition cancels any speed
setting value chosen by the driver.
The inter-vehicle distance is set at " Normal"
(2 dashes) by default. Otherwise, the last
value selected will be used when the system is
switched on.
Pause
The cruise control can be paused manually:
– either by action by the driver:
• On the button 4 (Pause).
• On the brake pedal.
• On the electric parking brake control.
• On the clutch pedal, by pressing for
approximately 10 seconds or more.
• When changing from mode D to N with an
automatic gearbox.
– or automatically:
• If the ESC system is activated, for safety
reasons.
• When the speed of the vehicle goes below
19 mph (30 km/h) (1,100 rpm) with a manual
gearbox.
With the Stop function (with the EAT8 automatic
gearbox), the system manages braking until the
vehicle comes to a complete stop.
The brake lamps come on if the vehicle is slowed down by the system.
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake
lamps are not in perfect working order.


To do this, it uses a radar fitted in the front
bumper.
Primarily designed for driving on main
roads and motorways, this system only
works with moving vehicles driving in the
same direction as your vehicle.
If the driver operates a direction indicator
to overtake a slower vehicle, the cruise
control allows the vehicle to temporarily
approach the vehicle in front to assist the
overtaking manoeuvre, without ever
exceeding the speed setting.
Some vehicles present on the road may
not be properly detected or may be
misinterpreted by the camera and/or radar
(e.g. a lorry), which may lead to a poor
assessment of distances and lead to the
vehicle accelerating or braking
inappropriately.
Operating principle
The system automatically adapts the speed of
your vehicle to that of the vehicle in front, to
maintain a constant distance.
If the vehicle in front is driving more slowly,
the system slows, or even stops your vehicle
completely (with the EAT8 automatic gearbox),
using engine braking and the braking system.
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane, the cruise control progressively accelerates
your vehicle to return to the programmed speed.
The brake lamps illuminate as soon as the braking system is activated to
decelerate the vehicle.
This system is a driving aid that cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need
to observe speed limits and safety distances,
nor the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
The driver must remain in control of their
vehicle at all times by keeping both hands on
the steering wheel and keeping their feet near
the brake and accelerator pedals.
Steering-mounted controls
1. ON (CRUISE position)/OFF (position 0)
2. Activation of cruise control at the current
speed/decrease speed setting
3. Activation of cruise control at the current
speed/increase speed setting
4. Pause/resume cruise control with the speed
setting previously saved
5. Use the speed suggested by the Speed Limit
Recognition and Recommendation ( MEM
display)
6. Display and adjustment of the distance
setting to the vehicle in front
Switching on
► With the engine running, turn the
thumbwheel 1 to the "CRUISE" position. The
system is paused (grey display).
With a manual gearbox, vehicle speed must be
between 19 and 112 mph (30
and 180 km/h).
With an automatic gearbox, vehicle speed must
be between 0 and 112 mph (0
and 180 km/h).

"Hold the wheel" –

If, while correcting the trajectory
, the system detects
that the driver has not held the steering wheel for a few
seconds, it stops correcting and returns control to the
driver.
– If, while correcting the trajectory , the system determines
that the correction will not be enough and that a solid line
will be crossed (orange line): the driver is warned that they
must provide additional trajectory adjustment.
The duration of audible warnings will increase if multiple
corrections are performed in quick succession. The
warning will become continuous, persisting until the driver
responds.
This message may also be displayed if you have your
hands on the steering wheel.
Operating limits
The system goes into standby automatically in
the following cases:
–

ESC deactivated or operation triggered.
–


Speed below 43 mph (70
km/h) or greater
than 112 mph (180
km/h),
–

Electrical connection of a trailer
.
–

Use of a"space-saver" spare wheel detected
(as detection is not immediate, deactivation of
the system is recommended).
–


Dynamic driving style detected, pressure on
the brake or accelerator pedal.
–


Driving where there are no lane markings.
–


Activation of the direction indicators.
– Crossing the inside line on a bend.
– Driving in a tight corner .
–

Inactivity by the driver detected during
correction.
The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or
prevent it from working:
–
