Lighting controls
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.
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.

not a legal requirement, you can activate or
deactivate the function via the configuration
menu.
Automatic illumination of
headlamps
If your vehicle is fitted with this function, the
dipped beam headlamps are switched on
automatically if the light is poor.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may
detect sufficient light. In this case, the
lighting will not come on automatically. If
necessary, you must switch on the dipped
beam headlamps manually.
They are switched off when the light
returns to a
sufficient level.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor at the
top centre of the windscreen.

Adaptive lighting
System which automatically changes to main
beam according to the ambient light level and
the driving conditions, using a camera located
at the top of the windscreen.
This system is a
driving aid.
The driver remains responsible for the
vehicle's lighting, its correct use for the
prevailing conditions of light, visibility
and traffic, and obser vation of driving
regulations.

traffic conditions permit:
If the situation requires a change of headlamp
beam, the driver can take over at any time.
Flashing the headlamps again pauses the
function and the system changes to "automatic
illumination of headlamps" mode.
The function is disabled automatically below

If main beam is nevertheless necessary, flash
the headlamps again; main beam will then
remain on until the vehicle reaches a
speed of
25
mph (40 km/h).
Above 25
mph (40 km/h), the function is
reactivated automatically (provided that the
headlamps have not been flashed again in the
meantime, to change to dipped beam).
Deactivation

ntermittent wiping: 1 notch downwards.
In this position, four wiping frequencies can be
selected by turning the ring.
Automatic rain sensitive
windscreen wipers
If your vehicle is fitted with this system, the
wiping speed is adapted automatically to the
intensity of the rainfall.
Automatic wiping: 1
notch downwards. This is
confirmed by a
single wipe. Must be reactivated
after each time the ignition is switched off.
In this position, it is possible to increase the
sensitivity of the rain sensor by turning the ring.
Do not cover the rain sensor, located at
the top centre of the windscreen.
When washing the vehicle, switch off the
ignition or deactivate the automatic rain
sensitive wipers.

Screenwash and headlamp
wash
F Pull the wiper control stalk towards you, the screenwash is accompanied by a timed
operation of the wipers.
Depending on the model, the headlamp wash
is coupled with the screenwash, it is triggered if
the dipped beam headlamps are on.
The level of this fluid should be checked
regularly, particularly during winter.
For more information on Checking levels and
in particular the screenwash/headlamp wash
level, refer to the corresponding section.

Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
t emperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F

T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towable load on an incline
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a
check on the coolant
temperature.

f this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,

the engine as soon as possible.
New vehicle
Do not pull a
trailer before having driven at
least 620
miles (1,000 kilometres).
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height
of your vehicle.
For more information on Headlamp
beam height adjustment , refer to the
corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal if a
genuine PEUGEOT
towbar is used.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys contain an electronic immobiliser
device.
This device locks the engine supply system.
It activates automatically when the key is
removed from the ignition.
This warning lamp goes off after the
key has been recognised, the ignition is
switched on and the engine can be started.
If the key is not recognised, the engine
cannot be started. Use another key
and have the faulty key checked by
a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Note the number of the keys carefully;
in case of loss, inter vention by the
PEUGEOT dealer will be more efficient
and quicker if you present this number and
the confidential card.
When the ignition switch is turned on, a
dialogue is set up between the key and the
electronic immobiliser.
Do not make any modifications to the
electronic immobiliser system.
Operating the remote control, even when it
is in your pocket, may result in involuntary
unlocking of the doors.
The simultaneous use of other high
frequency equipment (mobile telephones,
domestic alarms, etc.), may inter fere
with the operation of the remote control
temporarily.
The remote control does not operate
while the key is in the ignition, even if the
ignition is off, except for reinitialisation.

Driving

The units for the speed limits (mph or
km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
This should be taken into account in order
to obser ve the speed limit.
For the system to operate correctly when
you change country, the units for speed in
the instrument panel must be set to those
for the country you are driving in.
The automatic reading of road signs is
a driving assistance system and does not
always display speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over the display by the
system.
The system cannot in any circumstances
replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver.
The driver must observe the driving
regulations and must adapt the speed of
the vehicle to suit the weather and traffic.
It is possible for the system to not display
the speed limit if it does not detect a
speed
limit sign within a
preset period.
The system is designed to detect signs
that conform to the Vienna Convention on
road signs. To maintain correct operation of the
system:
-

R
egularly clean the area in front of the
camera.
-

D
o not carry out any repairs in the area
of the windscreen close to the camera
lens.
When replacing headlamp bulbs, you
are strongly recommended to fit genuine
replacement parts.
The use of other bulbs could reduce the
per formance of the system.
Principles Display in the touch screen
then in the instrument
panel
The signs are displayed in the following two
phases:
-

A
ll new recognised traffic signs are
displayed in the touch screen in the form of
a
pop-up for 40 seconds.
-

T
hese traffic signs are then displayed in the
instrument panel.
The system can display two traffic signs (speed
limit and no overtaking/end of no overtaking) at
the same time in the two specific areas of the
instrument panel.
If an additional traffic sign is detected, such as
one for a
reduced speed limit when the road is
wet, this is displayed in an empty window below
the corresponding sign. Using the camera located at the top of the
windscreen, this system detects and reads
speed limit and no overtaking traffic signs and
signs that indicate the end of these restrictions.
The sign is read by the camera, and then when
the vehicle passes it (at its level), it is displayed
in the instrument panel.

Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with
the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them
up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a
level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If you have to remove/refit the engine
cover, handle it with care to avoid
damaging the fixing clips.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health
or indeed very corrosive. Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop and dispose of it in
the containers reser ved for this purpose.
Engine oil level
Check this regularly and top up as
necessary between two oil changes
(the maximum consumption is 0.5

check with the vehicle standing level,
engine cold, using the dipstick.
