Access
2Remote lighting of the
lamps
Availability of this function depends on version.► Press this button. The sidelamps,
dipped beam headlamps, number plate
lamps and door mirror spotlamps come on for 30
seconds.
Pressing again before the end of the timed
period switches off the lamps immediately.
Advice
Remote control
The remote control is a sensitive, high-
frequency device; avoid handling it in your
pocket, due to the risk of unintentionally
unlocking the vehicle.
Avoid pressing the remote control buttons
while out of range of the vehicle, due to
the risk of rendering the remote control
inoperative. It would then be necessary to
reset it.
The remote control does not work
when the
key is in the ignition switch, even when the
ignition is switched off.
Anti-theft protection
Do not modify the electronic vehicle
immobiliser, as this might result in
malfunctions.
For vehicles with a key ignition switch,
remember to remove the key and turn the
steering wheel to engage the steering lock.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked could make
it more difficult for the emergency services
to enter the passenger compartment in an
emergency.
As a safety precaution, remove the key from
the ignition or take the electronic key with you
when leaving the vehicle, even for a short
time.
Purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the key codes memorised by a
PEUGEOT dealer, to ensure that the keys
in your possession are the only ones able to
start the vehicle.
Proximity Keyless Entry
and Start
This is a Keyless Entry and Start system.
It enables automatic vehicle locking/unlocking
simply by detecting the electronic key.
As long as the driver has the electronic key
on their person, the vehicle unlocks as they
approach and locks when they walk away.
If the electronic key is present in an area
between 2 and 5 m from the vehicle for more than 30 minutes, the system is deactivated to
preserve the battery.
Key recognition zones:


Zone A: welcome lighting on approaching
the vehicle (between 2 and 5
metres from the
vehicle).
Zone B: automatic locking on moving away from
the vehicle (about 2
metres from the vehicle).
Zone C: automatic unlocking on approaching
the vehicle (between 1 and 2
metres from the
vehicle).
Automatic functions are configured in the Settings > Vehicle touch screen
application.

Lighting and visibility
► With the ignition off, pull the lighting control
stalk toward you ("headlamp flash") to activate/
deactivate the function.
Manual guide-me-home lighting goes off
automatically after a period of time.
Welcome lighting
When the vehicle is unlocked in low light
conditions and the "Automatic illumination of
headlamps" function is activated, this system
automatically switches on:
–

On the outside, sidelamps, dipped beam
headlamps and door mirror spotlamps.
–


Inside, courtesy lamps and footwell lighting.
Door mirror spotlamps
These spotlamps facilitate access to the vehicle
by lighting the ground near the front doors.
The spotlamps come on automatically:
–
when the vehicle is unlocked.
–


when a door is opened.
–


when a request to locate the vehicle is
received from the remote control.
They also come on with the welcome lighting
and guide-me-home lighting functions.
They go off automatically after 30 seconds.
Automatic lighting systems - General
recommendations
The automatic lighting systems use a detection
camera, located at the top of the windscreen.
Operating limits
The system may be disrupted or not work
correctly:
–

When visibility conditions are poor
(e.g.

snowfall, heavy rain).
–

If the windscreen is dirty
, misted-up or
masked (e.g.
sticker) in front of the camera.
–

If the vehicle is facing highly reflective signs
or safety barrier reflectors.
The system is not able to detect:
–


Road users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians.
–


V

ehicles with hidden lighting (e.g. travelling
behind a safety barrier on the motorway).
–

V

ehicles at the top or bottom of a steep
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
Maintenance
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal surface of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
obstruct the camera.
Automatic headlamp dipping
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations for
automatic lighting systems.
With the ring of the lighting control stalk
in the
"AUTO" position and the function activated on
the touch screen, this system automatically
switches between dipped and main beam
headlamps, according to lighting and traffic
conditions, using a camera located at the top of
the windscreen.

98
Driving
Towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
particular care must be taken.
Do not exceed the maximum towable
weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by
10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower
air density at high altitudes decreases engine
performance.
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles
(1,000 kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight (at the point where it
joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine PEUGEOT towing device is
used, the rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the audible
signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant
temperature to increase. The maximum towable
load depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not
increase with engine speed.
►

Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to
limit the amount of heating produced.
►


Pay constant attention to the coolant
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as
possible.
Brakes
Using the engine brake is recommended to limit
the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances
are increased when towing a trailer.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more
susceptible to wind when towing.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys contain a code, which must be
recognised by the vehicle before starting is
possible.
If the system malfunctions, indicated by the
display of a message, the engine will not start.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

187
In the event of a breakdown
8Do not exceed the maximum authorised
speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) or the maximum
distance of 50 miles (80 km).
Driving with more than one "space-saver"
type spare wheel is prohibited.
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Have the tightening of the spare wheel's bolts
and its tyre pressure checked.
Have the punctured tyre examined. After
inspection, the technician will advise you on
whether the tyre can be repaired or if it must
be replaced.
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.
Never look too closely at the light beam
of LED technology lamps - risk of serious
eye injury!


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.

headlamps/lamps are:
–
