Dipped or main beam headlamps.
" Highway function "
On versions fitted with "Full LED"
technology headlamps, the range of the
dipped beam headlamps is automatically
increased once the speed of the vehicle is
above 68 mph (110 km/h). "
Peugeot Adaptive LED technology "
On versions with 3D LED rear lamps,
brightness is adjusted automatically for
optimum visibility at all times, both at day

Headlamp dipping
In " AUTO " and sidelamps modes, the driver
can switch on the main beam headlamps
temporarily ("headlamp flash") by pulling and
releasing the lighting control stalk.
Displays
Illumination of the corresponding indicator
lamp in the instrument panel confirms that the
lighting selected is on.
A fault with a lamp is signalled by the
permanent illumination of this warning
lamp, accompanied by the display of a
message and an audible signal.
Rear foglamps
Rear foglamps must not be used in clear
or rainy weather, at day or night. In these
situations, the power of their beams may
dazzle other drivers. They must be used
only in fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, it is your
responsibility to switch on the foglamps
and dipped beam headlamps manually as
the sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light.
Switch off the foglamps when they are no
longer necessary.
The foglamps operate with dipped or

On opening the driver's door, a temporary
audible signal warns the driver that the

It switches off automatically after a period
of time that depends on the state of charge
in battery (entering energy economy mode).
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal sur face of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps is
normal; it disappears after the lamps have
been on for a few minutes.
Never look too closely at the luminous
beam of "Full LED" headlamps: risk of
serious eye injury. Travelling abroad
If using your vehicle in a country that
drives on the other side of the road, the
headlamps must be adjusted to avoid
dazzling oncoming drivers.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

heavy rain, etc.),
-
i
f the windscreen is dirty, misted or
obscured (by a sticker, etc.) in front of
the camera,
-
i
f the vehicle is facing highly reflective
signs.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:
-
r
oad users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians,
-
v
ehicles whose lighting is obscured
(for example: vehicles running behind
a safety barrier on a motor way),
-
v
ehicles at the top or bottom of a
steep slope, on winding roads, on
crossroads.
If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or if
the traffic conditions do not allow illumination of
the main beam headlamps: -

Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal sur face of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
conceal the detection camera.
Static cornering lighting
Activation/Deactivation
The function is activated and
deactivated in the Driving/Vehicle
menu of the touch screen.
Switching on
This system operates from a certain angle of
rotation of the steering wheel.
Switching off

- b elow a certain angle of rotation of the
steering wheel,
-

a
bove 56 mph (90 km/h),
-
w

hen reverse gear is engaged.
Night Vision
Using an infrared camera at the front of the
vehicle, the system identifies and signals the
presence of pedestrians and animals in the
driver’s field of vision, in low exterior light
conditions.
For the permanent display of the image from
the infrared camera in the instrument panel,
select the "Night Vision" display mode by
turning the knob located to the left of the
steering wheel. Once the conditions are met,
an alert is triggered when there is a risk of
collision. Night Vision is a driving aid system that
cannot, under any circumstances, replace
the personal assessment of night-time
visibility and traffic conditions.
In some conditions, the contrasts 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 on the edge
of the road).
Conditions for operation
With the dipped or main beam headlamps on,
this function allows headlamps to illuminate
the inside of a bend using light-emitting diodes
(LEDs).
The speed of the vehicle must be less than 56
mph (90 km/h).
This function is only available with the "Full
LED" technology headlamps. If the "Night Vision" display mode has not been
selected, the alert is triggered in the form of a
temporary window displayed in the instrument
panel.
The function is available with the engine
running and in STOP mode of Stop & Start.
The light conditions must be very poor. The
dipped beam headlamps must be switched on
and maintained in good working order.
The temperature detection range is between
-30°C and +30°C.
The speed of the vehicle must be less than
99
mph (160 km/h).
The camera detection range is between 15
m
(for pedestrians) and 200
m, depending on
visibility conditions.
