Zoom view
The camera records the vehicle's surroundings
during the manoeuvre in order to create
a view from above the rear of the vehicle in its
near surroundings, allowing the vehicle to be
manoeuvred around obstacles nearby.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu.
Park Assist
This system provides active parking
assistance: it detects a parking space and then
steers in the appropriate direction to park in
this space while the driver controls the driving
direction, engagement of gears, acceleration
and braking.
To assist the driver in monitoring the
correct manoeuvring operation, the system
automatically triggers the display of Visiopark
1
and the activation of the parking sensors. This system is a
manoeuvring aid that
cannot under any circumstances replace
the vigilance of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of their
vehicle. He or she must always check
the surroundings of the vehicle before
undertaking a
manoeuvre and ensure that
the space remains clear during the entire
manoeuvre.
The blue lines 1

represent the width of your
vehicle, with the mirrors unfolded; their
direction changes depending on the position of
the steering wheel.
The red line 2

represents a

distance of 30

cm
from the bumper; the two blue lines 3

and
4

represent 1

m and 2

m, respectively.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the
view selection menu. Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are in reality.
It is important to check the sides of the
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the
mirrors.
The rear parking sensors also provide
information on the vehicle's surroundings.
180° view
The 180° view facilitates reversing out of
a
parking bay, making it possible to see the
approach of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.
This view is not recommended for carrying out
a


complete manoeuvre. It consists of 3
areas: left A
, centre B and
right C .
This view is available only from the view
selection menu.
The system per forms the measurements of
available parking spaces and calculations of
distances to obstacles using ultrasonic sensors
built into the front and rear bumpers of the
vehicle.

Operating faults
When the function is not activated,
this warning lamp temporarily
flashing and an audible signal
indicate a system fault.
If the fault occurs during the use of the system,
the warning lamp goes off. If the fault in the parking sensors,
indicated by this warning lamp
coming on, occurs during use, it
causes the function to deactivate.
In the event of a
fault, have the system checked
by a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
In the event of a
fault with the
power steering, this warning lamp
flashes in the instrument panel,
accompanied by a


message.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Under-inflation detection
This system automatically monitors the tyre
pressure while driving. The system monitors the pressure in all four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised after ever y tyre
pressure adjustment or wheel change
.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the pressure of one or more
tyres.
The tyre under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.
This system still requires you to check
the tyre inflation pressures (including
the spare wheel) every month as well as
before a

long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
handling, extends braking distances and
causes early tyre wear, particularly in
adverse conditions (heavy loads, high
speeds, long journeys).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption. The tyre pressure specifications for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the
Identification markings
, refer to the
corresponding section.
Tyre pressures should be checked when
the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1 hour or after a journey of less than
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to the
pressures shown on the label.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
Under-inflation alert
This warning is indicated by fixed
illumination of this warning lamp, an
audible signal and, depending on
the equipment installed, a message
displayed on the screen.
F

R

educe speed immediately, avoid excessive
steering movements and sudden braking.
F

Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.

Driving

176
The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual
check.
F

I

n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment),
or
F

i

f you have a compressor, such as the one
in the temporary puncture repair kit, check
the pressures of the four tyres when cold,
or
F

i

f it is not possible to carry out this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced
speed.
The alert is kept active until the system is
reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
The system must be reinitialised after any
adjustment to the pressure of one or more
tyres, and after changing one or more wheels. The system is initialised with the ignition on and
the vehicle stationary.
The new pressure parameters saved
are considered reference values by the
system.
Without audio system
F Press this button for about 3 seconds then
release it, an audible signal confirms the
reinitialisation.
With audio system or touch screen
The reinitialisation is carried
out via the vehicle configuration
menu.
Malfunction
The flashing and then fixed illumination of the
under-inflation warning lamp accompanied
by illumination of the Ser vice warning lamp
indicates a
fault with the system.
In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the
tyres is no longer assured.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Before doing anything to the system,
the pressures of the four tyres must be
checked and the system reinitialised.
Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres
are correct for the conditions of use
of the vehicle and conform to the
recommendations on the tyre pressure
label.
The under-inflation alert can only be relied
on if the reinitialisation of the system has
been done with the pressures in the four
tyres correctly adjusted.
The under-inflation detection system
does not give a

warning if a

pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.

If you have added the wrong fuel, you
must have the tank drained and refilled
with the correct fuel before you star t
the engine.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level in the
tank is reached, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a
message.
Fuel cut- of f
Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system that
c uts off the supply of fuel in the event of an
impact.
Diesel misfuel prevention
Mechanical device which prevents filling the
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It helps
avoid the risk of engine damage that can result
from filling with the wrong fuel. It is still possible to use a
fuel can to fill the
t a n k s l ow l y.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in
direct contact with the flap of the misfuel
prevention device. Driving abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be
different in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may make
refuelling impossible.
Not all Diesel vehicles are fitted with
misfuel protection, so before travelling
abroad, we recommend that you check
with the PEUGEOT dealer network,
whether your vehicle is suitable for the
fuel pumps in the country in which you
intend to travel.
When it first comes on, less than 6 litres of
fuel remain in the tank.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains
improve traction as well as the
behaviour of the vehicle when
braking.
Snow chains must be fitted only to the
front wheels. They must never be fitted to
"space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force in
your country on the use of snow chains
and the maximum authorised speed.
When a

petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the
fuel filler neck of your Diesel vehicle, it comes
into contact with the flap. The system remains
closed and prevents filling.
Do not persist but introduce a

Diesel type
filler nozzle.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention
device appears when the filler cap is removed.

Installation tips
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey,
stop the vehicle on a flat sur face on the side
of the road.
F

A
pply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks under the wheels to prevent
movement of your vehicle.
F

F

km/h).
F

S
top your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a
level and dry sur face.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and the
road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted with
alloy wheels, check that no part of the
chain or its fixings is in contact with the
wheel rim.

Towing device
Load distribution
F D istribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle, and the nose weight approaches
the maximum permitted without exceeding
it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. The maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10% for every
1,000
metres of altitude. Use towing devices and their original
harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. It
is recommended that the installation
be per formed by a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a

qualified workshop.
If the towing device is not fitted by
a PEUGEOT dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Certain driving assistance or manoeuvring
assistance functions are automatically
deactivated if an approved towing device
is used.
Obser ve the maximum authorised towable
weight, indicated on your vehicle's
registration certificate, the manufacturer's
label and in the Technical data section of
this guide.
Complying with the maximum
authorised nose weight (towball)
also includes the use of accessories
(bicycle carriers, tow boxes, etc.).
Obser ve the legislation in force in the
country in which you are driving.
