an audible signal
and a message
in the screen. Illumination of this warning
lamp is associated with a
serious braking system, power
steering, engine lubrication or
cooling system malfunction or a
punctured tyre. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so as there is a risk that the
engine will cut out while driving.

USB PLAYER

This connection box, consisting of a USB port, is located in the front
armrest.
It permits the connection of portable equipment, such as an iPod
®

digital audio player of generation 5 or later or a USB memory stick.
It reads the audio fi le formats (mp3, ogg, wma, wav...) which are
transmitted to your audio equipment and played via the vehicle's
speakers.
You can manage these fi les using the steering mounted controls or the
audio equipment control panel and display them in the multifunction
screen.

When it is in use, the portable equipment charges automatically.

For more information on the use of this equipment, refer to the
corresponding audio section.
PEUGEOT CONNECT USB


This connection box, consisting of a JACK socket and a USB port, is
located in the front armrest.
With the USB port, it permits the connection of portable equipment,
such as a digital audio player of the iPod
® or USB memory stick type.
With the JACK socket, it permits the connection of any type of portable
player.
It reads the audio fi le formats (mp3, ogg, wma, wav...) which are
transmitted to your audio equipment and played via the vehicle's
speakers.
If the equipment is connected to the USB port, you can manage these
fi les using the steering mounted controls or the audio equipment control
panel and display them in the multifunction screen.

If the equipment is connected to the USB port, when it is in use,
the portable equipment charges automatically.

For more information on the use of this equipment, refer to the
Peugeot Connect Sound (RD5) or Peugeot Connect Navigation
(RT6) section.

5/
SAFETY
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
System which automatically and continuously checks the pressure of
the tyres while driving.
The tyre under-infl ation detection system is an aid to driving which
does not replace the need for the driver to be vigilant or to drive
responsibly. Sensors fi tted in each valve trigger a warning in the event of a problem
(speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).

Under-inflated tyre

This warning lamp is displayed in the instrument panel
accompanied by an audible signal and an alert message
identifying the wheel concerned.


)
Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible.
This check must be carried out when the tyres are cold.
HORN


Audible warning to alert other road users to an imminent danger.


)
Press one of the spokes of the steering wheel.

EMERGENCY OR ASSISTA NCE
CALL


This system allows you to make an emergency or assistance call to the
emergency services or to the dedicated PEUGEOT service.

For more information on the use of this function, refer to the "Audio
equipment and telematics" section.

104
All repairs and changing of tyres on a wheel fi tted with this
system must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you install a wheel which is not detected
by your vehicle (example: fi tting of snow tyres), you must have
the system reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
This system does not avoid the need to have the tyre pressures
checked regularly (refer to the "Identifi cation markings" section)
to ensure that the optimum dynamic performance of the vehicle is
maintained and prevent premature wear of the tyres, particularly in
arduous driving conditions (heavy load, high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked cold, at least once a month.
Remember to also check the pressure of the spare wheel if your
vehicle has one.
The tyre under-infl ation detection system may experience
temporary interference due to electro-magnetic signals on a
frequency close to that used by the system.


Puncture

The STOP
warning lamp comes on and this warning lamp is
displayed in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible
signal and an alert message identifying the wheel concerned.


)
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so, avoiding any sudden movement
of the steering wheel and the brakes.

)
Repair or change the damaged wheel (punctured or very defl ated
tyre), and have the tyre pressure checked as soon as possible.



Sensor(s) not detected or faulty

This warning lamp is displayed in the instrument panel
accompanied by an alert message to identify the wheel or wheels
which are not detected or to indicate a fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop to replace the
faulty sensor(s).
This message is also displayed when one of the wheels is away
from the vehicle (being repaired) or when one or more wheels
without a sensor are fi tted.
If your vehicle has a spare wheel, this does not have a sensor.
