Mirrors and windows
Interior mirror
The lever located on the lower edge moves
the mirror into two positions.
For the day position, the lever is pushed.
For the night position to prevent dazzle,
pull the lever towards you.
Exterior mirrors
The mirror glass is spherical in order to
widen the lateral field of vision. Objects
seen in the mirror are in reality closer than
they appear. Therefore, this must be taken
into account in order to assess the distance
correctly.
Electric controls
The electric control is located on the left-
hand interior side, level with the mirror.

IN-CAR TECHNOLOGY
P a r k i n g a s s i s t a n c e
AUDIBLE REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE
The audible system consists of four
proximity sensors, installed in the rear
bumper.
It detects any obstacle which enters the
field: person, vehicle, tree, fence, behind the
vehicle during the manoeuvre.
However, it will not be able to detect obstacles
located immediately below the bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks
cone or any other similar object may be
detected at the beginning of the manoeuvre
but may no longer be detected when the
vehicle moves close to it. When the distance between the rear of
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than
approximately thirty centimetres, the audible
signal becomes continuous.
This function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed.
You are advised to obtain a towbar
recommended by PEUGEOT and have it
installed by a professional.
If anomalies are detected on engaging
reverse gear, the warning light comes on,
possibly accompanied by a message on the
display. Stop the assistance
Change to neutral.
O p e r a t i n g f a u l t
If this warning light or the service
warning light comes on on the
instrument panel, accompanied
by a message on the display,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Good practice
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow. E n g a g e r e v e r s e g e a r
The proximity information is indicated by an
audible signal which becomes more rapid as
the vehicle approaches the obstacle.

Ventilation
CORRECT USE OF THE AIR CONDITIONING
In order to be effective, the air conditioning
should only be used with the windows
closed. However, if the interior temperature
remains high after a prolonged period parked
in the sun, do not hesitate to ventilate the
passenger compartment for a few minutes. For even air distribution, ensure that the
exterior air intake grille located at the base of
the windscreen is not obstructed and that the
side and central vents, the air outlets on the
floor and the air extractor at the rear are open.
The air conditioning is useful in all seasons
as it eliminates condensation and air
humidity. Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in perfect working order.
Have the filter elements (air filter and
passenger compartment filter) replaced
regularly. If you drive in a dusty environment,
have them replaced twice as often.
It is normal that the condensation created by
the air conditioning system results in a flow
of water which may form a puddle under the
vehicle when parked.
If the system does not produce cold air, do
not use it and contact a PEUGEOT dealer .
VENTS
For optimum distribution and diffusion of hot
or cool air in the passenger compartment,
there are:
- 2 adjustable central vents,
- 2 adjustable and closing side vents,
- 2 vents directed towards the floor of the vehicle.
