PARKING ASSISTANCE
I f fi 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 fi 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.
This system does not take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of the driver.
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 fl a s h e s , a c c o m p a n i e d b y a n audible 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.
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.
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 fi t t e d ( v e h i c l e fi t t e d w i t h towing attachment or bicycle carrier recommended by PEUGEOT ).

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 8.
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.

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
fi 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, and if
the change in load makes it necessary,
this system automatically corrects the
height of the beam after approximately
2 minutes. 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 towing
s p e e d t o b e s i g n i fi c a n t l y i n c r e a s e d
(approximately 12 mph [20 km/h]
more). Sequential control of the
gearbox may also become unavailable. Lighting
Bicycle carrier I f y o u fi 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 fi 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 fi c a t i o n
features" section of chapter 8. 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 7.
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 fi 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 fi t t i n g
should be carried out by a professional,
we recommend that you entrust the
fi 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 fi 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.
