Engage reverse gear 
 
An audible signal confi rms the activation of the 
system by engaging reverse gear. 
  The proximity information is indicated by an 
audible signal which becomes more rapid as 
the vehicle approaches the obstacle. When 
the distance between the rear of the vehicle 
and the obstacle is less than approximately 
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes 
continuous. 
   
Stop the assistance 
 
Change to neutral.  
 
REAR PARKING SENSORS
 
The audible and/or visual rear parking 
sensor system consists of four proximity 
sensors, installed in the rear bumper. The 
sensors detect any obstacle which enters 
the field: person, vehicle, tree, fence, behind 
the vehicle during the manoeuvre. 
  Certain objects detected at the beginning of 
the manoeuvre will no longer be detected 
at the end of the manoeuvre due to the 
blind spots between and below the sensors. 
Examples: stake, roadworks cone or 
pavement post. 
   
Activation / Deactivation 
 
You can activate or deactivate the 
system by pressing this button. 
   
Malfunction 
 
In the event of a malfunction, when reverse 
gear is engaged the LED in the button 
comes on, accompanied by an audible 
signal and a message in the screen. Contact 
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.  
 
 
Good practice 
 
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the 
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or 
snow. 
  The system will be deactivated automatically 
if a trailer is being towed or if a bicycle 
carrier is fitted (vehicle fitted with a 
towbar or bicycle carrier recommended by 
PEUGEOT). 
  The parking assistance cannot, in any 
circumstances, take the place of the 
vigilance and responsibility of the driver.      
Display in the screen  
 
   
You are advised to deactivate the system if 
your vehicle is fitted with a rear ladder or if 
you are transporting a load which exceeds 
the length of the vehicle.      
The activation or deactivation of the system 
is stored when the vehicle stops.

You should therefore use a high gear to 
lower the engine speed and reduce your 
speed. 
  In all cases, pay attention to the coolant 
temperature.     
Tyres  
 
Check the tyre pressures of the towing 
vehicle (see the "Identification markings" 
section of chapter 8) and of the trailer, 
observing the recommended pressures.    
Towbar 
 
We recommend the use of genuine 
PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses, 
which have been tested and approved from 
the design stage of your vehicle, and that 
you entrust the fitting of this equipment to a 
PEUGEOT dealer. 
  If this equipment is not fitted by a PEUGEOT 
dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted using 
the electrical pre-equipment installed at the 
rear of the vehicle and in accordance with 
the manufacturer's instructions. 
  In accordance with the general instructions 
a reminder of which has been given above, 
we draw your attention to the risk associated 
with fitting a towbar or electrical accessory 
not recommended by PEUGEOT. Fitting 
such equipment could result in the failure 
of your vehicle's electronic system. Please 
obtain information from the Manufacturer 
before fitting this type of equipment.  
See the "Levels" section of chapter 6. 
   
Good Practice 
 
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,  the air conditioning is automatically 
cut off to save engine power. 
  If the coolant temperature warning 
lamp comes on, stop the vehicle 
and switch off the engine as soon 
as possible.    
Brakes  
  Towing increases the braking distance. Drive 
at a moderate speed, change down early 
and brake gradually. 
   
Side wind  
  Sensitivity to side wind is increased. Drive 
smoothly and at a moderate speed. 
   
ABS/ESP  
  The ABS or ESP systems only control the 
vehicle, not the trailer or caravan. 
   
Rear parking sensors  
  The parking sensors system does not 
function while the vehicle is towing.

The fitting of electrical equipment 
or accessories which are not 
recommended by PEUGEOT may result 
in the failure of your vehicle's electronic 
system. Please note this specific warning. 
You are advised to contact a representative 
of the Marque to be shown the range of 
recommended equipment and accessories. 
  Depending on the country in which the 
vehicle is sold or operated, it is compulsory 
to have a high visibility safety vest, warning 
triangle and replacement bulbs available in 
the vehicle.  
    Front mud flaps, rear mud flaps, ... 
   
Installation of radiocommunication 
transmitters 
  Before installing accessory 
radiocommunication transmitters with an 
external aerial on your vehicle, you are 
advised to contact a representative of the 
PEUGEOT marque. 
  The PEUGEOT dealer network can inform 
you of the specifications (frequency 
band, maximum output power, aerial 
position, specific installation conditions) 
of the transmitters which can be fitted, 
in accordance with the Motor Vehicle 
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 
(2004/104/CE).   Screenwash, replacement fuses, wiper 
blades, interior and exterior cleaning and 
maintenance products, replacement bulbs, ...    To prevent the mat from becoming caught 
under the pedals: 
   
 
-   ensure that the mat and its fi xings are 
positioned correctly, 
   
-  never fi t one mat on top of another.  
  Audio equipment, hands-free kit, speakers, 
CD changer, navigation, ... 
  Regardless of the audio and telematic 
equipment offered on the market, the 
technical constraints linked with the fi tting of 
equipment of these families of products mean 
that the special features of the equipment and 
its compatibility with the capacities of the your 
vehicle's standard equipment must be taken 
into account. Please contact a dealer for 
information before fi tting such equipment.
