FRONT AND/OR REAR
PARKING ASSISTANCE
I f i t t e d o n y o u r v e h i c l e , t h e s y s t e m i s
audible and/or visual and consists of
four proximity sensors, located in the
front and/or rear bumper. The sensors
detect any obstacle which enters
t h e i e l d : p e r s o n , v e h i c l e , t r e e , g a t e ,
located in front of or behind the vehicle
during the manoeuvre.
Objects the size or thickness of which
is detected at the beginning of the
manoeuvre, may no longer be detected
at the end of the manoeuvre: due to
blind spots between and below the
sensors. Examples: stake, roadworks
cone, kerbstone.Switching the system on
The system is activated as soon as:
- reverse gear is engaged,
- the speed falls below 6 mph
(10 km/h) in forward gear.
This is accompanied by an audible
signal and displaying of the vehicle,
depending on the display.
The proximity information is given by:
- an audible signal, which becomes more rapid as the vehicle
approaches the obstacle,
- a graphic on the display, with blocks which become progressively
closer to the vehicle.
The obstacle is located in relation to the
emission of the audible signal from the
speakers, front or rear and right or left. Switching the system off
Press the button again to re-activate
the system. The indicator light on the
button switches off.
In bad or wintry weather, ensure
that the sensors are not covered
with mud, frost or snow.
In this case (e.g. sensors dirty), when
reverse gear is engaged, the indicator
l i g h t l a s h e s , a c c o m p a n i e d b y a n a u d i b l e
signal and a message on the display.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer. Deactivation
Press the button on the fascia
to deactivate the system (to
avoid waking a child...). The
indicator light on the button
comes on.
This function will be deactivated
automatically when the vehicle is
towing a trailer or when a bicycle
c a r r i e r i s i t t e d ( v e h i c l e i t t e d w i t h
towing attachment or bicycle carrier
recommended by PEUGEOT).
The system returns to the inactive status:
- when you exit reverse gear,
- when the speed increases to above 6 mph (10 km/h),
- at the end of the manoeuvre, when the vehicle becomes stationary
(front parking assistance only).
Re-activation
When the distance between the
vehicle and the obstacle is less than
approximately thirty centimetres, the
audible signal becomes continuous
and the "Danger" symbol appears
depending on the display.

If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
display, consult a PEUGEOT

Reactivation
In the
"OFF" position, the passenger
air bag will not be triggered in the
event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
turn the air bag slot to the "ON"
position to re-activate the air bag
and thus ensure the safety of your
passenger in the event of an impact. To ensure the safety of your
child, it is essential to disarm the
passenger air bag when you install

passenger seat. Otherwise, the child
would risk being killed or seriously

The air bag warning light
on the instrument panel is
lit throughout the period of
disarming. If the two air bag warning lights
are lit continuously, do not install
a rear-facing child seat. Consult a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Activation
They are deployed simultaneously,
unless the passenger’s front air bag
has been disarmed, in the event of a
serious front impact applied to all or
part of the front impact zone

Towing a trailer
ACCESSORIES

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...
Refer to the administrative
documents (V5, ...) or to the Petrol
or Diesel "Dimensions, weights
and towed loads" section of chapter 9. Distribution of loads:
distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heaviest
loads are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight is close
to the maximum authorised without,
however, exceeding it. Cooling:
towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
Dimension A
= 0.96 m
Driving advice
A towed vehicle must free wheel:
gearbox in neutral.
Page 152 of 194
154
Towing a trailer
On the contrary, use a high gear to
lower the engine speed and reduce
your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the
coolant temperature. Brakes:
towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake
gradually. Please contact a PEUGEOT dealer
i r s t f o r f u r t h e r i n f o r m a t i o n .
Automatic adjustment
For vehicles with Xenon bulbs, this
system automatically corrects the
height of the beam, whatever the
load of the vehicle. The driver is then
assured of having optimum lighting and
not causing a nuisance to other road
users.
In certain cases of particularly
arduous use (towing the
maximum load up a steep slope
in high temperatures), the engine
automatically limits its power.
In this case, cutting off the air
conditioning allows the engine power
to be recovered, and therefore the
t o w i n g s p e e d t o b e s i g n i i c a n t l y
increased (approximately 12 mph
[20 km/h] more). Sequential control
of the gearbox may also become
unavailable. Lighting
Bicycle carrier I f y o u i t a b i c y c l e c a r r i e r o n
the tailgate, deactivate the
rear wiper from the display’s
c o n i g u r a t i o n m e n u .
R e f e r t o t h e " I d e n t i i c a t i o n
features" section of chapter 9. Refer to the "Steering wheel
controls" section of chapter 3.
When using a trailer connection,
you must add a fuse. Refer to
the "Changing a fuse" section of
chapter 8.
If the coolant temperature warning light
comes on, stop the vehicle and switch
off the engine as soon as possible.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures of
the towing vehicle and of the trailer,
observing the recommended pressure. Side wind:
sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed.
Towbar
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars, which have been
tested for endurance from the design
stage of your vehicle.
T o w i n g e q u i p m e n t m u s t b e i t t e d i n
accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions, with particular attention to
the towing capacities of your vehicle,
the load towed, the nose weight and
t h e e l e c t r i c a l c o n n e c t i o n . A s t h i s i t t i n g
should be carried out by a professional,
we recommend that you entrust the
i t t i n g o f t h i s e q u i p m e n t t o a P E U G E O T
dealer.
In accordance with the general
instructions referred to above, we draw
your attention to the risk connected
w i t h i t t i n g a t o w b a r o r o t h e r e l e c t r i c a l
accessory which is not recommended
by the PEUGEOT network. Fitting such
equipment could result in a failure of
your vehicle’s electronic system. Manual adjustment
Adjust your headlamps so as not to
dazzle other road users. Check the
electrical signalling of the trailer.
