Switching off
 or by dipping the headlamps manually using the lighting control stalk, whether in the "AUTO" or "Dipped/main beam headlamps" position.
Flashing the headlamps does not deactivate the system. The state of the system is stored in
memory when switching off the ignition. This automatic headlamp dipping system is a driving aid. The driver remains responsible for the vehicle's
lighting and its correct use for the prevailing conditions of light, visibility and traffic.
The system may suffer inter ference or not work correctly: - under conditions of poor visibility (for example, snowfall, heavy rain or thick fog, ...), - if the windscreen is dir ty, misted or obscured (by a sticker, ...) in front of the sensor, - if the vehicle is facing highly reflective signs.
The system is not able to detect: - road users that do not have their own lighting, such as pedestrians, - road users whose lighting is obscured, such as vehicles running behind a safety barrier (on a motor way, for example), - road users at the top or bottom of
a steep slope, on twisty roads, on crossroads.

Practical information
Dipped beam headlamps (halogen model)
 Remove the protective plastic cover by pulling on the tab.  Disconnect the bulb connector.  Extract the bulb by pulling and change it. For reassembly, carry out these operations in reverse order.
The headlamps are fitted with polycarbonate glass with a protective coating:  do not clean them using a dr y or abrasive cloth, nor with a detergent or solvent product, use a sponge and soapy water,  when using a high pressure washer on persistent marks, do not direct at the lamps or their outlines for too long, so as not to damage their protective coating and seals.
Risk of electrocution
Xenon bulbs (D1S-35W) must be replaced by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
 Do not touch the bulb directly with your fingers, use lint-free cloths. Changing a bulb should only be done after the headlamp has been switched
off for a few minutes (risk of serious burns). It is imperative to use only anti-ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs in order not to damage the headlamp. Always replace a failed bulb with a new bulb with the same type and specification.
