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.

Safety
Passengers must not place their feet on the
dashboard.
Do not smoke as deployment of the airbags
can cause burns or the risk of injury from a
cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or
hit it violently.
Do not fix or attach anything to the steering
wheel or dashboard, as this could cause
injuries when the airbags are deployed.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved seat covers
compatible with the deployment of these
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backrests (e.g.
clothing) as this could cause
injuries to the chest or arm when the airbag is
deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.
The vehicle's front door panels include side
impact sensors.
A damaged door or any unauthorised or
incorrectly executed work (modification or
repair) on the front doors or their interior trim
could compromise the operation of these
sensors - risk of malfunction of the lateral
airbags!
All work must be carried out only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof,
as this could cause head injuries when the
curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the grab handles installed on
the roof.
Child seats
The regulations on carrying children are specific to each country. Refer to the
legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please observe the
following recommendations:
–

In accordance with European regulations,
all children under the age of 12 or less than
1.5 metres tall must travel in approved child
seats suited to their weight , on seats fitted with
a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings.
–


Statistically
, the safest seats in your
vehicle for carrying children are the rear
seats.
–

Children weighing less than 9 kg must
travel in the "rearward facing" position,
whether in the front or rear of the vehicle.
It is recommended that children travel
on the rear seats of the vehicle:
–

"rearward facing" up to the age of 3.
–

"forward facing" over the age of 3.
Make sure that the seat belt is correctly
positioned and tightened.
For child seats with a support leg, ensure that
the support leg is in firm and steady contact
with the floor.
An incorrectly installed child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's safety in
the event of an accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat, as this could
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harness keeping the slack relative
to the child's body to a minimum, even for
short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat
belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened
correctly on the child seat and that it secures
the child seat firmly on the vehicle seat. If
the passenger seat is adjustable, move it
forwards if necessary.
Remove the head restraint before
installing a child seat with a backrest on a
passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from being
thrown around the vehicle in the event of
sharp braking. Refit the head restraint once
the child seat has been removed. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, dashes are
displayed (orange) instead of the speed setting.
This warning lamp comes on, accompanied by a message and an
audible signal, to confirm the malfunction.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Lane positioning assist
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .


The system identifies the edges of the traffic lane
and steers the vehicle to keep it inside this lane
and maintain the lateral position chosen by the
driver.
To do this, the system uses a camera placed on
the upper part of the windscreen.
This system is particularly suited to driving on
motorways and main roads.
Activation/Deactivation
The Lane positioning assist system is
automatically activated, after selecting Drive
Assist Plus mode.
For more information on the Drive Assist Plus
system, refer to the corresponding section.
The selection is confirmed by the display of the
symbols on the instrument panel, representing
the steering wheel and the side lines.
The colour of the symbols depends on the
operating state of the system:
(grey)
One or more operating conditions is not
met; the system is paused.
(green)
All operating conditions are met; the
system is active.
(orange)
System malfunction.
If the driver no longer wishes to use the system
for some time, they can deactivate it by pressing
the ASSIST button again (confirmed by the
Driving aids mini-view disappearing from the
instrument panel).
The system status is saved when the ignition is switched off.

6(50 km/h), if both sensors are able to detect
the thread.
The system also takes motorcyclists into account.
It may also react on animals. Animals
(especially animals smaller than 0.5
m)
and objects on the road are not necessarily
detected.
This system includes three functions:
–

Collision
Risk Alert.
–

Intelligent emergency braking assistance
(iEBA).
–


Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency
braking).


The vehicle has a multifunction camera located
at the top of the windscreen and, depending on
version, a radar located in the front bumper.
This system does not replace the need for driver vigilance.
This system is designed to assist the driver
and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to continuously
monitor traffic conditions in accordance with
applicable driving regulations.
As soon as the system detects a potential collision, it prepares the braking
circuit. This may cause a slight noise and a
slight sensation of deceleration.
Deactivation/Activation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
Deactivation of the system is signalled by
the illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of a message.
Operating conditions and
limits
Vehicle moving forward without trailer.
Brake system operational.
ASR system activated.
Seat belts fastened for all passengers.
Stabilised speed on roads with no or low
curvature.
This warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel without any additional
message, to indicate that the automatic braking
system is not available.
This is a normal behavior indicating that a
condition is not fulfilled and which does not
request the support of a workshop.
In any situations with ignition on where automatic
braking presents a risk, deactivating the system
via the driving aids touch screen application is
recommended, for instance:
–

Carrying long objects on roof bars.
–


Using an automatic car wash.
–


Performing any maintenance (e.g.
changing a
wheel, working inside the engine compartment).
–

Placing the vehicle on a rolling bench in a
workshop.
–

–

Following a damage of the windscreen close
to the detection camera.
The system is automatically deactivated if:
–

A

spare wheel with a too small diameter is
detected.
–

A

fault with the brake pedal switch or with
the right or left brake lamp is detected.
–

A

fault in the sensors, in the electronic or in
the brake system is detected.
–

A

trailer is detected by the equipped vehicle
hitch (with an electrical connection plug).
–

A

severe crash (e.g. with airbag
deployment) is detected.
In case the detection is degraded or
temporarily unavailable by environment
conditions, then a driver indication is not CarM an uals 2 .c o m

displayed (because a driver action is not
requested).
It can be dangerous to drive if the brake
lamps are not in perfect working order.
The driver must not overload the vehicle (keep within the GVW and GTW limits
and load height limits for roof bars).
Collision Risk Alert
This function warns the driver if there is a risk
of collision with the preceding vehicle, or with a
pedestrian or cyclist.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
The trigger threshold determines the sensitivity
with which the function warns of the risk of
collision.
► In the ADAS touch screen application,
select Functions>Automatic Braking
System .
►

Select one of the 3 preset
thresholds:

"Far", "Medium" or "Near".
The selected threshold is memorised when the
ignition is switched off.
Operation
Depending on the collision risk detected by the
system and the alert trigger threshold chosen
by the driver, different levels of alert may be
triggered and displayed on the instrument panel.
The system takes into account the vehicle
dynamics, the difference speed of the own
vehicle and the object identified for the
collision risk, and the operation of the vehicle
(e.g.
actions on the pedals, steering wheel) to
trigger the alert at the most relevant moment.
(orange)
Level 1: visual alert only, warning that the
preceding vehicle is very close.
The message "Vehicle close" is displayed.
(red)
Level 2: visual and audible alert, warning
that a collision is imminent.
The message "Brake! " is displayed.
Level 3: a micro-braking may be given,
confirming the risk of collision (optional).
While approaching a vehicle too quickly,
the level 2 alert may be displayed
directly.
Important: the level 1 alert depends on the
trigger threshold selected. It reacts only on
moving vehicles. It is disabled automatically
at lower speed.
It is possible that collision warnings are
not given, are given too late or seem
unjustified.
The driver must always stay in control of the
vehicle and be prepared to react at any time
to avoid an accident.
If you select "Far" in the touch screen,
then the system warns sooner. This
increases the safety but increases also the
amount of alerts, if the legal safety distance is
not kept.
To reduce the alert occurrence, you can
change the setting to either of the other two.
Intelligent emergency
braking assistance (iEBA)
This function increases vehicle deceleration
if the driver does not brake enough to avoid a
collision.
This assistance is only provided if the driver
presses the brake pedal. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Practical information

The towball is attached to boot ring with strap.
2 strap loops are made around the towball and
then put into the ring.
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.
Work on the towing device
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Roof bars
As a safety measure and to avoid damaging the roof, it is essential to use
transverse roof bars approved for your
vehicle.
Observe the instructions on fitting and use
contained in the guide supplied with the roof
bars.
Maximum load distributed over the
transverse roof bars, for a loading height
not exceeding 40 cm (except bicycle carrier):
80

kg.
As this value may change, please verify the
maximum load quoted in the guide supplied
with the roof bars.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the speed
of the vehicle to the profile of the road to
avoid damaging the roof bars and the fixings
on the vehicle.
Be sure to refer to national legislation in order
to comply with the regulations for transporting
objects that are longer than the vehicle.
Direct fitting on roof

The transverse bars must only be fixed at the
four anchorage points located on the roof frame.
These points are concealed by the vehicle doors
when the doors are closed.
The roof bar fixings have a stud which must be
inserted into the opening of each anchorage
point.
Fitting on longitudinal bars
(SW)


The transverse bars must be fixed at the
markings located on the longitudinal bars. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Practical information
7Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as close
as possible to the roof.
Secure the load firmly.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the effects of side winds and its
stability may be affected.
Regularly check the security and tight
fastening of the roof bars, at least before each
trip.
