Cruise control

System which automatically maintains the
speed of the vehicle at the value programmed
by the driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on
manually: it
requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h) and the engaging:


- 4th gear or higher on a manual gearbox,

- 2nd gear or higher on an electronic gear
control gearbox or automatic gearbox,

- position A
on the electronic gear control
gearbox or D
on the automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off
manually
or by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or
on triggering of the ESP system for safety
reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.

the need for vigilance and responsibility
on the par t of the driver.





This information also appears in the
head-up display.

Operation

When you have identified a parking space:


)
Engage a gear on a manual gearbox or put
the gear lever in position A
(electronic gear
control gearbox) or in position D
(automatic
gearbox).

)
Press button A
to star t the system.

)
Operate the direction indicator on the
side where the space is to be measured;
a message is displayed and the warning
lamp flashes to confirm that measurement
is in progress.

)
During measurement, go for ward the
length of the space, at a speed less than
12 mph (20 km/h), to prepare for your
manoeuvre.

)
Once the measurement has been
completed, the system informs you of
the level of difficulty of the manoeuvre
by a message in the multifunction screen
accompanied by an audible signal.

The system displays one of the following messages:


Parking possible


Parking difficult


Parking not advised


If the lateral distance between your
vehicle and the parking space is too
great, the system may not be able to
measure the space.

The system remains available after
each measurement and can therefore
measure several spaces in succession.
In poor or wintry weather, ensure that
the sensors are free of dir t, ice or snow.
The parking space sensor system
deactivates the front parking sensors
when measuring for wards.
If there is a fault, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The system switches itself off automatically:


- when you engage reverse gear,

- when you switch off the ignition,

- if measuring is not requested,

- within five minutes of switching on the
system,

- if the vehicle speed exceeds the threshold
of 45 mph (70 km/h) for one minute.

Practical information

The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric acid
and lead. They must be disposed of in
accordance with regulations and must
not, in any circumstances, be discarded
with household waste.
Take used remote control batteries and
vehicle batteries to a special collection
point.

Do not disconnect the terminals while
the engine is running.
Do not charge the batteries without
disconnecting the terminals first.
Do not push the vehicle to star t the
engine if it is fitted with a 6 -speed
electronic gear control gearbox or an
automatic gearbox.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery
if the vehicle is to be left unused for
more than one month.

Before disconnecting the battery

Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition
before disconnecting the battery.
Close the windows and the doors before
disconnecting the battery.


Following reconnection of the
battery
Following reconnection of the battery, switch on
the ignition and wait 1 minute before star ting to
permit initialisation of the electronic systems.
However, if problems remain following this
operation, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must yourself reinitialise:


- the remote control key,

- the panoramic sunroof blind,

- the GPS satellite navigation system.











Load reduction mode

System which manages the use of cer tain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
cer tain functions, such as the air conditioning,
the heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.

Towing the vehicle
Procedure for having your vehicle towed or for towing another vehicle using a removable towing eye.


Towing your vehicle
Towing another vehicle






Access to the tools

The towing eye is installed in the boot under
the floor.
To gain access to it:


)
open the boot,

)
position the floor ver tically,

)
remove the towing eye.


)
On the front bumper, unclip the cover by
pressing at the bottom.

)
Screw the towing eye in fully.

)
Install the towing bar.

)
Switch on the hazard warning lamps on the
towed vehicle.

)
On the rear bumper, unclip the cover by
pressing at the bottom.

)
Screw the towing eye in fully.

)
Install the towing bar.

)
Switch on the hazard warning lamps on the
towed vehicle.

When towing with all four wheels on the
ground, always use a towing bar.
When towing with only two wheels on
the ground, always use professional
lifting equipment.
When towing with the engine off, there
is no longer any braking or steering
assistance.

)

Place the gear lever in neutral
(position N
on the electronic gear
control gearbox or automatic gearbox).
Failure to obser ve this special
condition could result in damage to
cer tain braking components and the
absence of braking assistance the
next time the engine is started.

Checks






Manual gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the Maintenance and Warranty
Guide for the details of the level
checking interval for this component.







6-speed electronic gearbox
system
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of the
checking interval for this component.







Automatic gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).

Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of the
level checking inter val for this
component. Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, par ticularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over shor t
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the system, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
















Brake pads

For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.


Brake disc wear

Manual parking brake

If a loss of effectiveness of this
system is noticed, the parking brake
must be checked, even between
two ser vices.
Checking this system must be done by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.






















Electric parking brake

This system does not require any
routine servicing. However, in the
event of a problem, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
For more information, see "Driving - Electric
parking brake - § Operating faults".
















Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as impor tant as the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and offers
very specific products.
To avoid damaging the electrical units,
the use of a high pressure washer
in the engine compar tment is strictly
prohibited

The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, if the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced by an equal amount; warning,
towing using a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.
The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by 10 % for
each additional 1 000 metres of altitude.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the per formance of the vehicle to protect the engine; if the ambient temperature is above 37 °C,
limit the towed load.
