VISUAL AND AUDIBLE REAR
PARKING ASSISTANCE
This system consists of four proximity
sensors, located in the rear bumper.
This detects any obstacle (person,
vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) behind the
vehicle. Nevertheless, it cannot
detect obstacles located just below
the bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a
roadworks cone or any other similar
object may be detected at the
beginning of the manoeuvre, but
may no longer be detected when the
vehicle comes close to it.
Note: this function will be disarmed
automatically when the vehicle is
towing a trailer or when a bicycle
c a r r i e r i s i t t e d ( v e h i c l e i t t e d w i t h
towing attachment or bicycle carrier
recommended by PEUGEOT).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that
the sensors are not covered with
mud, frost or snow. When reverse
gear is engaged, an audible signal
(long bleep) indicates that the
sensors may be dirty. The proximity information is given
by:
- an audible signal, which becomes
more rapid as the vehicle
approaches the obstacle,
- a graphic on the multifunction display, with blocks which become
progressively closer to the vehicle.
Depending on the multifunction
display, the audible signal is
transmitted by a buzzer or by the rear
speakers which transmit:
- on the right if an obstacle is detected on the right,
- on the left if an obstacle is detected on the left,
- on the right and on the left if an obstacle is detected in the centre.
When the distance between the
rear of the vehicle and the obstacle
is less than approximately thirty
centimetres, the audible signal
becomes continuous and the
"Danger" symbol appears depending
on the multifunction display.
Change to neutral, the system is
again inactive.
If there is an operating
fault, when reverse gear is
engaged, the service warning
light comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal (short bleep)
and a message on the multifunction
display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Activation/Deactivation
Activation
The system is activated as soon as
reverse gear is engaged.
This is accompanied by an audible
signal and displaying of the vehicle,
depending on the multifunction
display. The system can be activated
or deactivated from the
multifunction display
c o n i g u r a t i o n m e n u .
The activation and deacti-
vation of the system are memorised
when the engine is switched off.

CHECKS
Where the handbrake travel
is too great or there is a re-
duction in the performance
of the system, the hand-
brake should be adjusted,
even between services.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Particle emission filter
(Diesel)
It is imperative that the particle emis-
s i o n i l t e r i s m a i n t a i n e d i n a c c o r d a n c e
with the manufacturer’s servicing
schedule, by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Note: following prolonged operation
of the vehicle at very low speed or at
idle, you may, in exceptional cases,
notice discharges of water vapour
at the exhaust on acceleration. This
has no effect on the behaviour of the
vehicle or on the environment. Brake pad wear depends
on the style of driving, in
particular for vehicles which
are used in town, over short
distances.
D i s c a n d d r u m w e a r s t a t u s
For any information relating to the wear
status of the surfaces of the discs and
drums, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
.
Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT or
products of equivalent qual-
ity and characteristics.
To ensure best performance
from components as important as the
power steering and the braking sys-
tem, PEUGEOT selects and offers
q u i t e s p e c i i c p r o d u c t s .
To prevent damage to the electrical
units, high pressure washing to clean
the engine compartment is strictly
prohibited .
Oil filter
Used products
Avoid all prolonged contact of the
used oil with the skin.

drains or onto the ground.
Empty the used oil into the
containers provided for this
purpose in the PEUGEOT network.
Battery
At the start of winter, have
your battery checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Brake pads
It may be necessary to
check the thickness of the
pads, even between ser-
vices.
Handbrake
C h a n g e t h e i l t e r r e g u l a r l y ,
