Instruments and controls
EMISSIONS CONTROLS
EOBD (European On Board
Diagnosis) is a diagnostics
system which complies with,
among others, the standards
concerning authorised emissions of:
- CO (carbon monoxide),
- HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
- NOx (nitrous oxides) or particles,
detected by oxygen sensors placed
upstream and downstream of the
catalytic converters.
The driver is warned of any malfunction
of this emission control system by the
illumination of this specific warning lamp in
the instrument panel.
There is a risk of damage to the catalytic
converter. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
DETECTION
Sensors continuously monitor the tyre
pressures and trigger a warning in the event
of under-inflation, a puncture or a fault with
a sensor.
Any anomaly is indicated by visual and
audible information and is accompanied by a
message in the screen.
Deflated tyre
The Service warning lamp comes on.
Following a warning, the under-inflation of
the tyre will not necessarily be visible.
Check the tyre pressure as soon as
possible.
Puncture
The STOP warning lamp comes on.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so, avoiding
any sudden movement of the steering wheel
and the brakes.
Make a temporary repair to the tyre using the
puncture repair kit or by fi tting the spare wheel.
Change the damaged wheel, and have the tyre
pressures checked as soon as possible.
Refer to the "Changing a wheel"
section of chapter 7.
If the damaged wheel is replaced by one
without a sensor (for example, the spare
wheel), the message is maintained to indicate
that the pressure of the wheel cannot be
monitored, so providing a reminder that the
damaged wheel with sensor must be repaired.
Sensor(s) fault or not detected
The Service warning lamp comes on.
When changing a wheel or in the event of a
sensor fault, the tyre pressure is no longer
monitored. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop to replace the faulty
sensor(s).

distribution, the fl ow and the intake of air to
guarantee comfort and a suffi cient circulation of air
in the passenger compartment. No further action
on your part is required.
When the engine is cold, to prevent an
excessive diffusion of cold air, the ventilation
will reach its optimum level
gradually.
For
your comfort, the settings are stored when

Rear suspension
Metal suspension
This equipment adopts long movement limiters
which make it possible to
guarantee stable
behaviour both when loaded and when empt
y.
No action on your part is required except to
ensure that maintenance is carried out and that
the authorised loads are com
plied with.irrespective o
f the weight of the load, within
the limit of the authorised values.
On board,
the increasin
g or lightening of the load on
the vehicle's plat
form is detected by two
hei
ght sensors. When all of the doors are
closed, the sensors trigger the automatic
hei
ght correction and determine the optimum
hei
ght of the sill for the vehicle's driving
conditions.
Deactivation of automatic height correction
The control which permits deactivation o
f
automatic re
gulation is located on the right-
hand side, at the rear of the vehicle.
REAR SUSPENSION
You must deactivate automatic height
correction manually in the following
situations:
- when working underneath the vehicle,
- when changing a wheel,
- when the vehicle is being transported by
lorry, train, ferry, boat, ...
Two t
ypes of suspension are available.

If fitted on your vehicle, this type of
suspension regulates the variations in the
height of the rear platform of your vehicle

instrument panel
fl ashes if the
height is not at its optimum level
and requires correction, drive slowl

- when braking or when stopped at a red
traffic signal (brake pedal pressed).
With the vehicle stationary:
- press and hold,
- release the control.

Parking sensors
SAFETY
4
Engage reverse gear
An audible signal confirms 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.
