headlamp adjustment
This system automatically adjusts the height of 
the headlamp beams according to the load in the 
vehicle.
In the event of a malfunction, this warning 
lamp lights up on the instrument panel, 
accompanied by the display of a message and 
an audible signal.
The system places the headlamp beams in the 
lowest position.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Do not touch the Peugeot Matrix LED 
Technology 2.0 headlamps   - risk of 
electrocution!
Automatic illumination of  lamps
With the lighting control stalk in the “ AUTO” 
position and if a low level of exterior brightness 
is detected by the rain/sunshine sensor, the 
sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are 
switched on automatically, without any action on 
the part of the driver. They may also come on if 
rain is detected, at the same time as automatic 
operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a sufficient 
level or after the windscreen wipers are switched 
off, the lamps are switched off automatically.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction of the rain/
sunshine sensor, the vehicle’s lamps 
come on and this warning lamp is displayed on 
the instrument panel, accompanied by an 
audible signal and/or the display of a message.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Do not cover the rain/sunshine sensor 
located at the top centre of the 
windscreen behind the interior rear view 
mirror; the associated functions would no 
longer be controlled.
In fog or snow, the rain/sunshine sensor 
may detect sufficient light. For this 
reason, the lighting will not come on 
automatically.
The inner surface of the windscreen may  become misted up and affect the proper 
operation of the rain/sunshine sensor.
In humid and cold weather, demist the 
windscreen regularly.

message.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Do not cover the rain/sunshine sensor 
located at the top centre of the 
windscreen behind the interior rear view 
mirror; the associated functions would no 
longer be controlled.
Night Vision
This system identifies and signals the presence 
of pedestrians and animals in the driver's field 
of vision, in low exterior light conditions, using 
an infrared camera located at the front of the 
vehicle.
Select the "Night vision " display mode if you 
want the infrared camera image to be displayed 
constantly on the instrument panel. When the 
conditions are met, an alert is triggered if there is 
a risk of collision.
The permanent
  display disappears upon 
switching off the ignition or if the conditions are 
not met.
This system is a driving aid system that  cannot, under any circumstances, 
replace the driver's assessment of night-time 
visibility and traffic conditions.
In some cases, the differences in temperature 
are insufficient and the system may not detect 
all dangers or, conversely, it may give false 
warnings (e.g. engines of lorries parked by 
the side of the road).

Front intermittent wiping
In Intermittent mode, the driver can adjust the 
wiping frequency by turning the ring to one of the 
5 available positions.
 
 
The first (upper) position corresponds to the 
longest time interval between 2 wipes for light 
rain.
The last (lower) position corresponds to the 
shortest time interval between 2 wipes for heavy 
rain.
A rotation of the ring from a higher position to a 
lower position triggers a confirmation wiping.
After the ignition has been switched off for more than 1 minute with the wiper 
control stalk in the INT, 1 or 2
  position, when 
the ignition is switched on again:
–
 
the system works as soon as the vehicle 
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h), if the outside 
temperature is below +3°C.
–
 
the system works immediately
 , if the 
outside temperature is above +3°C.
Automatic windscreen  wipers
In AUTO mode, the front wipers work 
automatically and adapt to the intensity of 
precipitation depending on the sensitivity of the 
sensor selected.
The rainfall detection function uses a rain/
sunshine sensor located at the top centre of the 
windscreen, behind the rear view mirror.
In certain weather conditions (e.g. fog, 
frost, snow , projections on salty roads), 
the driver may have to return to manual 
wiping.
Switching on/off
To switch on:
►  Put the wiper control stalk in the  AUT
O 
position.
►
 
T
 urn the ring to adjust the sensitivity of the 
sensor.
A wiping cycle, accompanied by the display of 
a message, confirms that the request has been 
taken into account.
►
 
T
 o switch off, put the wiper control stalk in 
another position or in the  0 position.
Adjusting the sensitivity 
 
The first position (upper) corresponds to the 
lowest sensitivity of the sensor.
The last position (lower) corresponds to the 
highest sensitivity of the sensor.
The higher the sensitivity, the faster the system 
reacts and increases the wiping frequency.
A rotation of the ring from a higher position to a 
lower position triggers a confirmation wiping.
After the ignition has been switched off 
for more than 1 minute with the wiper 
control stalk in the AUTO position, when the 
ignition is switched on again:
–
 
the system works, depending on the 
volume of rain detected, as soon as the 
vehicle exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h), if the 
outside temperature is below +3°C.
–
 
the system works immediately
 , depending 
on the volume of rain detected, if the outside 
temperature is above +3°C.
Do not cover the rain/sunshine sensor.
When using an automatic car wash, 
switch off the automatic wipers and the 
ignition.
In winter, wait until the windscreen is 
completely clear of ice before activating the 
automatic wipers.
Malfunction
If a fault occurs with the automatic wipers, the 
wipers operate in intermittent mode.
