DRIVING
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
A pressure sensor is located in the
valve of a each of these tyres.
The system triggers an alert if a drop
in pressure is detected in one or more
tyres. This system does not avoid the
need to check the tyre pressures
regularly and before a long journey.
Driving with under-infl ated tyres
adversely affects road holding,
extends braking distances and
causes premature tyre wear, par-
ticularly under arduous conditions
(vehicle loaded, high speed, long
journey).
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system continuously monitors the
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as
the vehicle is moving.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system is an aid to driving which
does not replace the need for the
driver to be vigilant or to drive re-
sponsibly. Driving with under-infl ated tyres in-
creases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressures for your vehicle
can be found on the tyre pressure
label (see the "Identifi cation mark-
ings" section).
The tyre pressures must be
checked when the tyres cold (vehi-
cle stopped for 1 hour or after driv-
ing for less then 6 miles (10 km) at
moderate speed). Otherwise, add
0.3 bar to the values indicated on
the label.
Spare wheel
Don't forget to also check the tyre
pressure of the spare wheel.
If your vehicle has an alloy spare
wheel, this also has a sensor.
If your vehicle has a steel spare
wheel, this may be fi tted with a
sensor * . Check whether a sensor
is fi tted to a steel wheel.

DRIVING
The alert is given by the fi xed il-
lumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal
and the display of a message.
Operating fault
Under-inflation alert
The loss of pressure detected does
not always lead to visible deforma-
tion of the tyre. Do not rely on just
a visual check. The alert is maintained until the
tyre or tyres concerned is reinfl at-
ed, repaired or replaced.
The fl ashing and then fi xed il-
lumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by the illumination
of the service warning lamp in-
dicates a fault with the system.
This alert is also displayed when
one or more wheels is not fi tted
with a sensor (steel spare wheel *
or other wheels fi tted with winter
tyres).
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop to have the
system checked or, following the
repair of a puncture, to have the
original wheel, equipped with a
sensor, refi tted.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pres-
sures is not assured.
 Reduce speed, avoid sudden steer- ing movements or harsh brake ap-
plications.
 Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
 In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the
spare wheel (according to equip-
ment),
or
 if you have a compressor, the one in the temporary puncture repair kit for
example, check the four tyre pres-
sures when cold,
or
 if it is not possible to check the tyre pressures at the time, drive carefully
at reduced speed.
* Depending on version.
In the event of a problem on one of the
tyres, a symbol or a message is dis-
played, depending on equipment, to
identify it.

PARKING SENSORS
This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate,
etc.) which comes within the fi eld of de-
tection of sensors located in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (stake, road-
works cone, etc.) detected initially will
no longer be detected at the end of the
manoeuvre due to the presence of blind
spots. This function cannot, in any cir-
cumstances, take the place of the
vigilance and responsibility of the
driver.
Rear parking sensors
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequen-
cy of which increases as the vehicle ap-
proaches the obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right
or left) indicates the side on which the
obstacle is located.
When the distance between the vehicle
and the obstacle becomes less than ap-
proximately thirty centimetres, the audi-
ble signal becomes continuous. The system is switched on by engaging
reverse gear. This is accompanied by
an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you
come out of reverse gear. This supplements the audible signal
by displaying bars in the multifunction
screen which move progressively near-
er to the vehicle. When the obstacle is
near, the "Danger" symbol is displayed
in the screen. Visual assistance

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 be-
low 6 mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted
if the vehicle stops for more than three
seconds in forward gear, if no further ob-
stacles are detected or when the speed
of the vehicle exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front
or rear) indicates whether the obstacle
is in front or behind.
The function is deactivated by pressing
this button. The indicator lamp in the
button comes on.
Pressing this button again reactivates
the function. The indicator lamp in the
button goes off. Deactivation / Activation of the rear
parking sensors
The function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being
towed or a bicycle carrier is fi tted
(vehicle fi tted with a towbar or bi-
cycle carrier recommended by
PEUGEOT).
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of
the system, when reverse gear
is engaged this warning lamp
is displayed in the instrument
panel and/or a message appears in the
screen, accompanied by an audible sig-
nal (short beep).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.
In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered
with mud, ice or snow. When re-
verse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that
the sensors may be dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcy-
cle, lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may
trigger the audible signals of the
parking sensor system.
The function is deactivated
or activated via the vehicle
confi guration menu.
The status of the function
is stored when the ignition
is switched off.
