Access
2Malfunction
An audible signal repeated three times while 
using the function indicates a fault with the 
system.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
If the "Hands-free tailgate access 
self-locking" option  is selected in the 
vehicle menu and after closing the door, 
check that the vehicle is properly locked.
Locking will not take place:
–
 
if the ignition is on,
–

–
 
if a "Keyless Entry and Start" remote 
control is inside the vehicle. 
If a number of gestures with your foot have 
no effect, wait a few seconds before starting 
again.
The system is automatically deactivated in 
heavy rain or with accumulations of snow
.
If it does not work, make sure that the 
remote control is not exposed to a source of 
electromagnetic interference (smartphone, 
etc.).
Operation may be affected if using a 
prosthetic leg.
This system may not work correctly if your 
vehicle is fitted with a towbar.
The side door may open or close without  warning if: 
–
 
Y
our vehicle is fitted with a towbar.
– A trailer is coupled or decoupled.

Ease of use and comfort
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.
Seating area fittings 
 
High load retaining net
This allows the use of the entire loading capacity, 
up to the roof:
–
 
behind the front seats in row 1, when the rear 
seats (and bench seats) in rows 2 and 3 are 
folded or removed,
–
 
behind the rear seats (and bench seats) in row 
2, when the rear seats (and bench seats) in row 
3 are folded or removed.
Upper fixings 
 
► Unclip the anchorage cover in the roof on 
each side.
Lower fixings (behind row 1)

vehicles, safety barriers, street lamps, road 
signs, etc.),
–
 
with vehicles moving in the opposite direction,
–
 
driving on a winding road or sharp bends,
–
 
when overtaking or being overtaken by a very 
long vehicle (lorry
, bus, etc.) which is both in the 
rear blind spot and present in the driver’s front 
field of vision,
–
 
when overtaking quickly
 ,
–
 
in very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in 
front and behind are confused with a lorry or a 
stationary object.

Parking sensors
For more information, refer to the 
General recommendations on the use 
of driving and manoeuvring aids .
 
 
This system detects and signals the proximity of 
obstacles (e.g.
  pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier) 
using sensors located in the bumper.
Rear parking sensors
► Engage reverse gear to start the system 
(confirmed by an audible signal).
The system is switched off when reverse gear is 
disengaged.  CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Driving
6Audible assistance 
 
The function signals the presence of obstacles 
present within the sensors’ detection zone.
The proximity information is given by an 
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of 
which increases as the vehicle approaches the 
obstacle.
When the distance between the vehicle and 
the obstacle becomes less than about thirty 
centimetres, the audible signal becomes 
continuous.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left) 
allows you to identify the side on which the 
obstacle is located.
Visual assistance 
 
 
 
This supplements the audible signal by 
displaying bars on the screen that move 
progressively nearer to the vehicle (green: more 
distant obstacles; yellow: close obstacles; red: 
very close obstacles).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger" 
symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
Supplementing the rear parking sensors, the 
front parking sensors are triggered when an 
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the 
vehicle is below 6 mph (10   km/h).
Front parking sensor operation is suspended if 
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in 
forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected 
or the vehicle speed exceeds 6
  mph (10   km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) locates the obstacle relative to 
the vehicle, in front or behind it.
Deactivation/Activation
With dashboard button 
 
 
 
► To deactivate or activate the system, press 
this button.
The indicator lamp is  on when the system is 
deactivated.
Without dashboard button
The settings are changed via the  vehicle configuration menu.
The rear parking sensors system will be deactivated automatically if a trailer or 
bicycle carrier is connected to a towing device 
installed in accordance with the 
manufacturer's recommendations.
Operating limits
If the boot is heavily loaded, the vehicle may tilt, 
affecting distance measurements.  CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Practical information
7If using accessories attached to the 
towing device (e.g.  bicycle carriers, tow 
boxes):
–
 
Comply with the maximum authorised nose 
weight.
–
 
Do not transport more than 4 conventional 
bicycles or 2 electric bicycles.
When loading bicycles onto a bicycle carrier 
on a towball, be sure to place the heaviest 
bicycles as close as possible to the vehicle.
Observe the legislation in force in the 
country where you are driving.
Electric motor
An electric vehicle may be fitted with a 
towing device.
It is therefore possible to tow a trailer or 
caravan.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or qualified 
workshop for more information and to obtain a 
suitable towing device.
Roof bars/Roof rack
As a safety measure and to avoid  damaging the roof, it is essential to use 
the roof bars and roof racks approved for your 
vehicle.
Observe the instructions on fitting and use 
contained in the guide supplied with the roof 
bars and racks.
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care 
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as close 
as possible to the roof.
Secure the load firmly.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more 
susceptible to the effects of side winds and its 
stability may be affected.
Regularly check the security and tight 
fastening of the roof bars, at least before each 
trip.
Remove the roof bars once they are no longer 
needed.
As this value may change, please verify  the maximum load quoted in the guide 
supplied with the roof bars.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the speed 
of the vehicle to the profile of the road to 
avoid damaging the roof bars and the fixings 
on the vehicle.
Be sure to refer to national legislation in order 
to comply with the regulations for transporting 
objects that are longer than the vehicle.
Roof bars
A maximum of 3 roof bars (or 2 bars for the 
version with panoramic sunroof) can be installed 
- use the positions marked in green.

shaking it).
Bonnet
Stop & Start
Before doing anything under the bonnet, 
you must switch off the ignition to avoid any 
risk of the engine restarting automatically.
Take care with objects or clothing that could 
be caught in the blades of the cooling fan 
or in certain moving components - risk of 
strangulation and serious injury!
Electric motor
Take care with objects or clothing that 
could be caught in the blades of the cooling 
fan or in certain moving components - risk of 
strangulation and serious injury!
Before carrying out any work under the 
bonnet, you must switch off the ignition, check 
that the READY indicator lamp is off on the 
instrument panel and disconnect the nozzle 
from the charging connector if it is connected.
The location of the interior bonnet  release lever prevents the bonnet being 
opened when the left-hand front door is 
closed.
When the engine is hot, handle the 
exterior safety catch and the bonnet stay 
with care (risk of burns), using the protected 
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to 
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy 
conditions.

Practical information
7Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Drive selector
The drive selector does not require any maintenance.
Manual parking brake
If you notice excessive brake lever travel 
or decreased effectiveness, the parking 
brake must be adjusted, even between two 
services.
This system must be checked by a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any routine  servicing. However, in the event of a 
problem, do not hesitate to have the system 
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
For more information on the  Electric 
parking brake, refer to the 
corresponding section.
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style of 
driving, particularly in the case of vehicles 
used in town, over short distances. It may be 
necessary to have the condition of the brakes 
checked, even between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in the 
brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads 
are worn.
After washing the vehicle, moisture, or in  wintry conditions, ice can form on the 
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency may 
be reduced. Gently dab the brakes to dry and 
defrost them.
Brake disc/drum wear
For any information on checking brake 
disc/drum wear, contact a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Wheels and tyres
The inflation pressure of all tyres,  including the spare wheel, must be 
checked on "cold" tyres.
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure 
label are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven 
for more than 10
  minutes or more than 6 miles 
(10
 
kilometres) at over 31 mph (50   km/h), add 
0.3
 
bar (30 kPa) to the values indicated on the 
label.
Under-inflation increases energy 
consumption. Non-compliant tyre 
pressures cause tyres to wear prematurely 
and have an adverse effect on the vehicle's 
road holding - risk of accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces the 
braking and road holding performance of the 
vehicle. Regularly check the condition of the 
tyres (tread and sidewalls) and rims as well as 
the presence of the valve caps.
When the wear indicators no longer appear set 
back from the tread, the depth of the grooves is 
less than 1.6
  mm; replace the tyres as soon as 
possible.
Using different size wheels and tyres from those 
specified can affect the lifetime of tyres, wheel 
rotation, ground clearance, the speedometer 
reading and have an adverse effect on road 
holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles 
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Always mark the direction of rotation on the tyres 
that will be stored when fitting winter or summer 
tyres. Store them in a cool, dry place and away 
from direct exposure to the sun's rays.
Winter or 4-seasons tyres can be 
identified by this symbol on their 
sidewalls.
Shock absorbers
It is not easy for drivers to detect when 
shock absorbers are worn. Nevertheless,   CarM an uals 2 .c o m
