Operating fault- the speed of the vehicle must be between 7 and 87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),
-
y
ou overtake a vehicle with a speed
difference of less than 6
mph (10 km/h),
-
a v
ehicle overtakes you with a speed
difference of less than 16
mph (25 km/h),
-
t
he traffic is flowing normally,
-
i
n the case of an overtaking manoeuvre,
if this is prolonged and the vehicle being
overtaken remains in the blind spot,
-
y
ou are driving on a straight or slightly
curved road,
-
y
our vehicle is not towing a trailer, a
caravan, etc.
No alert will be given in the following situations:
-
i
n the presence of non-moving objects
(parked vehicles, safety barriers, street
lamps, road signs, etc.),
-
w
ith vehicles moving in the opposite
direction,
-
d
riving on a winding road or a sharp corner,
-
w
hen overtaking or being overtaken by
a
very long vehicle (lorry, bus, etc.) which is
also in the rear blind spot and present in the
driver's front field of vision,
-
w
hen overtaking quickly,
-
i
n very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in
front and behind are confused with a
lorry or
a
stationary object.
In the event of a fault with the system, this warning
l amp flashes for a few moments in the instrument
panel, accompanied by the Service warning lamp
coming on and the display of a
message.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
w orkshop to have the system checked.
The system may suffer temporary
interference in certain weather conditions
(rain, hail, etc.).
In particular, driving on a
wet sur face
or moving from a
dry area to a wet area
can cause false alerts (for example,
the presence of a
fog of water droplets
in the blind spot angle is interpreted as
a
vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered by mud, ice or
snow.
Take care not to cover the warning zone in
the door mirrors or the detection zones on
the front and rear bumpers with adhesive
labels or other objects; they may hamper
the correct operation of the system.

It supplements the audible signal by displaying
bars on the screen that move progressively
nearer to the vehicle (white: more distant
obstacles; orange: close obstacles; red: very
close obstacles).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed on the screen.
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 below 6 mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds
in for ward gear, if an obstacle is no longer
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6
mph (10 km/h). The sound emitted by the speaker (front or
rear) locates the obstacle in relation to the
vehicle – in the vehicle trajectory, in front
or behind.
Side parking sensors
Only fixed obstacles are signalled
correctly. Moving obstacles detected
at the beginning of the manoeuvre may
be signalled mistakenly, while moving
obstacles which appear at the sides of
the vehicle and which were not previously
recorded will not be signalled.
Deactivation/Activation
The system is activated or deactivated via the
vehicle parameters menu in the screen.
The state of the system stays in the memory
when the ignition is switched off.
The rear parking sensors system will
be deactivated automatically if a
trailer
or bicycle carrier is connected to
a
towing device installed in line with the
manufacturer's recommendations.
The parking sensors are deactivated while the
Park Assist system is measuring a
space.
For more information on Park Assist , refer to
the corresponding section.
Operating limits
Visual assistance
Using four additional sensors located on the
sides of the front and rear bumpers, the system
records the position of fixed obstacles during
the manoeuvre and signals them when they are
located by the sides of the vehicle.
-
C
ertain obstacles located in the sensors'
blind spots may not be detected or no
longer be detected during the manoeuvre.
-
S
ounds such as those emitted by noisy
vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries,
pneumatic drills, etc.) may inter fere with the
vehicle's sensors.

180° view
Visiopark 2
The vehicle has a camera at the front, fitted
i n the grille, and a camera at the rear, located
close to the tailgate opening control.
Using these cameras, the system displays
the vehicle's near surroundings in the touch
screen, offering views from the rear of the
vehicle (rear vision), when reverse gear is
engaged and views from the front of the vehicle
(front vision), when the gearbox is in neutral or
a
gear is engaged.
Rear vision
If a trailer or a bicycle carrier is fitted to
t he towball, the zone behind the vehicle on
the top view goes dark.
The surroundings are reconstructed by the
front camera only.
The rear vision views are similar to those for
the Visiopark 1.
For more information on Visiopark 1 , refer to
the corresponding section.
Front and rear vision
Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are in reality.
It is important to check the sides of the
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the
mirrors.
The rear parking sensors also provide
information on the vehicle's surroundings.
The 180° view facilitates reversing out of
a
parking bay, making it possible to see the
approach of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out
a
complete manoeuvre. It consists of 3
areas: left A
, centre B and right C .
This view is available only from the view
selection menu. The system is deactivated:
-
a utomatically above about 6 mph (10 km/h),
-
w
hen shifting out of reverse (the rear view
image is replaced by the front view image
for 7
seconds),
-
b
y pressing the red cross in the top left-
hand corner of the touch screen.
The system activates automatically when
reverse gear is engaged.

Travelling abroad
Cer tain fuels could damage the engine of
your vehicle.
In cer tain countries, the use of a par ticular
fuel may be required (specific octane
rating, specific trade name, etc.) to ensure
correct operation of the engine.
For any additional information, contact a
dealer.
Towing device
Load distribution
F D istribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight approaches
the maximum permitted without exceeding
it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. The maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10% for every
1,000
metres of altitude. Use towing devices and their genuine
harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. It
is recommended that the installation
be per formed by a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a PEUGEOT
dealer, it must still be fitted in accordance
with the vehicle manufacturer's
instructions.
Important: for versions equipped with
the motorised tailgate with Hands-Free
Tailgate Access function, if a towing
device other than a genuine PEUGEOT
one is installed, it is imperative to visit
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to recalibrate the detection
system: risk of Hands-Free Tailgate
Access function failure.
Certain driving assistance or manoeuvring
assistance functions are automatically
disabled if an approved towbar is used. Obser ve the maximum authorised towable
weight, indicated on your vehicle's
registration certificate, the manufacturer's
label as well as in the Technical data
section of this guide.
Complying with the maximum
authorised nose weight (ball joint)
also includes the use of accessories
(bicycle carriers, tow boxes, etc.).
Obser ve the legislation in force in the
country in which you are driving.
Vehicle equipped with motorised tailgate
with "Hands-Free Tailgate Access "
function
To avoid unwanted opening of the tailgate
when using the towing device:
-
d
eactivate the Hands-Free Tailgate
Access function in advance in your
vehicle's configuration menu,
-
o
r remove the electronic key from the
recognition zone, with the tailgate closed.

Following use
When travelling without a trailer or load
on a
towbar-mounted carrier, the towball
must be removed and the protective plug
inserted in the carrier. This measure
applies particularly where the towball
might obscure visibility of the number
plate or its lighting.
Fitting the towballDuring use
Never release the locking system with
a
trailer or load carrier on the towball.
Never exceed the maximum authorised
weight for the vehicle – the Gross Train
Weight or GTW.
It is essential that the maximum
authorised load be complied with on the
towing device: if it is exceeded, this device
may detach from the vehicle, which is
a
serious accident risk.
Check that the trailer lamps work

Engine technical data and
towed loads
Engines
The engine characteristics are given in the
vehicle's registration document, as well as in
sales brochures.The maximum power corresponds to the
value type-approved on a
test bed, under
conditions defined in European legislation
(Directive 1999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Weights and towed loads
The weights and towed loads relating to your
vehicle are given in the registration document,
as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also given on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop. The GTW values and the towable loads
listed are valid for a
maximum altitude of
1,000 metres. The towable load must be
reduced by steps of 10% for each additional
1,000
metres.
The maximum authorised nose weight
corresponds to the weight permitted on the
towbar.
GT W: Gross train weight.
When exterior temperatures are high,
the vehicle per formance may be limited
in order to protect the engine. When the
exterior temperature is higher than 37°C,
limit the towed weight.
Towing using a lightly loaded vehicle can
adversely affect roadholding.
Braking distances are increased when
towing a trailer.
When using a
vehicle to tow, never
exceed a
speed of approximately 60 mph
(100
km/h) (obser ve the local legislation in
f o r c e). If the exterior temperature is high, it is
recommended that the engine be allowed
to idle for 1
to 2 minutes after the vehicle
comes to a stop, to facilitate its cooling.
