Correct driving position
Before taking to the road and to make the most
of the ergonomic layout of the instruments and
controls, carry out these adjustments in the
following order:
–
the height of the head restraint,
–


the seat backrest angle,
–


the seat cushion height,
–


the longitudinal position of the seat,
–


the height and reach of the steering wheel,
–


the rear view mirror and door mirrors.

Once these adjustments have been
made, check the instrument panel can be
viewed correctly from your driving position.

forwards or backwards.
►

Release the control bar to lock the seat in
position on one of the notches.
Before moving the seat backwards,
ensure that there is nothing that might
prevent the full travel of the seat.
There is a risk of trapping or pinching
passengers if present in the rear seats or
jamming the seat if large objects are placed
on the floor behind the seat.
Height

► Pull the control upwards to raise or push it
downwards to lower , until you obtain the position
required.

Precautions for the seats
and bench seats
Do not remove a head restraint without storing it
and securing it to a support.
Ensure that the passengers can always access
the seat belts and fasten them easily.
A passenger must not take their seat without
adjusting the seat's head restraint correctly and
adjusting and fastening their seat belt.
Ensure that no object or passenger feet
could obstruct the anchorage points or
prevent the correct latching of the assembly.
If removing and storing seats and bench
seats out of the vehicle, ensure that they
are placed in a clean area, so as to avoid
introducing any foreign bodies into the
mechanisms.
The seats and bench seats are not designed for any other use than in the
vehicle. They are equipped with mechanisms
and features that may be damaged if used
improperly or if dropped.
Loading luggage or objects
behind the row 3 seat and
bench seat


If you want to load luggage onto the backrests in
row
3 while in the table position, the backrests in
row
2 must also be in the table position.


When driving, it is prohibited to have a
passenger:
–
in rows 2 and 3, in the outer right-hand seat, if
the bench seat is in the fully folded position,
–


in the centre seat if the outer right-hand seat is
in the fully folded position,
–


in row 3 if the backrest in front (row 2) is in the
table position,

Mats
Fitting

When fitting it on the driver's side, only use the
mountings present on the carpet.
The other mats are simply laid over the carpet.
Removing/refitting
► To remove it on the driver's side, move
the seat as far back as possible and give the
fasteners a quarter turn.


► To refit it, position the mat and replace the
fasteners, giving them a quarter turn.
►
Check that the mat is secured correctly
.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:– Only use mats which are suited to the
fixings already present in the vehicle; these
fixings must be used.
–

Never fit one mat on top of another
.
The use of mats not approved by PEUGEOT
may interfere with access to the pedals and
hinder the operation of the cruise control/
speed limiter.
The approved mats have two fasteners
located underneath the seat.
In row 2 and row 3



Use the Velcro straps to attach the transverse
mat in row 2 with the longitudinal mats in rows
2 and 3.
Glove box
It houses the front passenger airbag deactivation
switch and can hold a bottle of water, the
vehicle's handbook pack, etc.
Never drive with the glove box (if

Load retaining partition



On the floor, behind the front seats, a vertical
partition protects the driver and front passengers
against the risk of load movement.
Steel or glazed partitions separate the loading
area from the cab.
Recommendations on
loading
The weight of the load must comply with the Gross Train Weight (GTW).
For more information on Engine technical
data and towed loads , refer to the
corresponding section.
If you are using a carrying system (roof
bars/roof rack), comply with the
maximum loads associated with this system.
For more information on Roof bars/Roof
rack , refer to the corresponding section.
Make sure that the size, shape and
volume of the loads carried are
compatible with the highway code and safety
regulations and do not impair the driver’s field
of vision.
The load must be evenly distributed in the loading area so as not to interfere
with driving the vehicle.
Place the load close to the side wall panels,
or push it against the side wall panels
between the wheel arches.
However, it is recommended that heavy
objects are placed as close to the cab as
possible as a precaution in case of sharp
braking.
Firmly secure all parts of the load using
the stowing rings on the floor of the
loading area.
For more information on the Interior fittings
and in particular on the stowing rings, refer to
the corresponding section.
To avoid the risk of injury or accident, the load must be made stable so that it
cannot slide, tip over, fall or be projected. To
do this, use only retaining straps that conform
to current standards (DIN, for example).
For more information on putting straps in
place, refer to the manufacturer’s user guide.
To prevent the load from sliding, there must
not be any empty spaces between the load
items and the vehicle wall panels.
As well as the straps, optimise the stability
of the load with stable handling equipment
(wedges, rigid blocks of wood or padding).
When washing your vehicle, never clean
the inside directly using a water jet.

Ease of use and comfort
Never use the ISOFIX ring provided for
fixing the strap of a child seat with Top
Tether.
Rear windows in row 2
If fitted to your vehicle, the side windows in row 2
can be opened.


While driving, the windows must be closed or
secured at one of the notches.
►

Squeeze the two controls then move the
window sideways.
For more information on the Child lock
on rear windows , refer to the
corresponding section.
Side blinds
Fitted to the windows in row 2, these protect the
passenger compartment from the sun's rays.


► Pull the tab A and attach the blind to the hook
B.
Always guide the blind slowly, using the tab, when raising or lowering it.
Panoramic sunroof

This is fitted with two manual and independent

When stowing the table tops, never place
your hand inside the slide area - risk of

Heating and Ventilation
Advice
Using the ventilation and air
conditioning system
►

T

o ensure that air is distributed evenly,
keep the external air intake grilles at the base
of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the
air outlets and the air extractor in the boot
free from obstructions.
►

Do not cover the sunshine sensor located
on the dashboard; this sensor is used to
regulate the automatic air conditioning
system.
►


Operate the air conditioning system for at
least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to
keep it in good working order

.
►

If the system does not produce cold air
,
switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
When towing a large load on a steep gradient
in high temperatures, switching off the air
conditioning increases the available engine
power, enhancing the towing capacity.
Avoid driving for too long with the ventilation off or with prolonged operation
of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and
deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high
after the vehicle has stood for a long
time in the sunshine, air the passenger
compartment for a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
Condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge of
water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly
normal.
Servicing the ventilation and air
conditioning system
►

Ensure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly

.
We recommend using a composite passenger
compartment filter. Its specific active additive
helps protect against polluting gases and bad
smells.
► To ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Manufacturer’s service schedule.


Contains R134A fluorinated
greenhouse gases
Depending on version and country of sale, the
air conditioning system may contain R134A
fluorinated greenhouse gases. Gas capacity
0.5

kg (+/- 0.025 kg), GWP index 1430 (CO
2 equivalent: 0.715 t).
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems
only work when the engine is running.
Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system to maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment.
For more information on Stop & Start, refer
to the corresponding section.
ECO driving mode
Selecting this mode reduces electrical
energy consumption, but restricts the
performance of the heating and air
conditioning systems, although it does not
deactivate them.
