Operation
A few moments after the ignition has been
switched on, the spanner indicating a
service operation lights up; the display for
the total distance recorder tells you (in round
figures) the distance remaining before the
next service. A few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the oil level is displayed, then the total
distance recorder resumes normal operation
showing the total and trip distances. Less than 1 000 miles/km before the next
service is due
Each time the ignition is switched on and
for a few seconds, the spanner flashes and
the number of miles/kilometres remaining is
displayed:
A few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the oil level is displayed, then the total
distance recorder resumes normal operation
and the spanner remains lit. This indicates
that a service should be carried out shortly.
Service overdue
With the engine running the spanner
remains lit until the service has been
carried out.
First of the two terms reached: the spanner
also lights up if the two-year interval has
elapsed.
The distance remaining before the next
service may be weighted by the time
factor, depending on the driver's driving
habits.
More than 1 000 miles/km before the next
service is due

Example: 4 800 miles/km remain before
the next service is due. When the ignition is
switched on and for a few seconds,
the display shows:
SERVICE INDICATOR
This programmes service intervals according
to the use of the vehicle.
EMISSION CONTROL
- CO (carbon monoxide),
- HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
- NOx (nitrogen oxides) or particles,
detected by oxygen sensors placed
upstream and downstream of the catalytic
converters.
Therefore, the driver is warned of any
malfunction of this emission control system
by the lighting of this specific warning light
on the instrument panel.
There is a risk of damage to the catalytic
converter. Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
EOBD (European On Board Diagnosis)
is a diagnostics system which complies
with, among others, the standards
concerning authorised emissions of:

Each time the ignition is switched
on and for a few seconds, the
spanner fl ashes and the excess
distance is displayed.
The points at which a service is due are
calculated from the last indicator zero reset.
The point at which a service is due is
determined by two parameters:
- the distance travelled,
- the time which has elapsed since the last service.

Rear suspension
Metal suspension
This equipment adopts long movement limiters
which make it possible to guarantee stable
behaviour both when loaded and when empty.
No action on your part is required except to
ensure that maintenance is carried out and that
the authorised loads are complied with. irrespective of the weight of the load, within
the limit of the authorised values. On board,
the increasing or lightening of the load on
the vehicle's platform is detected by two
height sensors. When all of the doors are
closed, the sensors trigger the automatic
compensation and determine the optimum
height of the sill for the vehicle's driving
conditions.
Deactivation of the automatic correction
The control which permits deactivation of the
automatic control is located on the right-
hand side, at the rear of the vehicle.
REAR SUSPENSION
You must deactivate the automatic
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 types of suspension are offered.
Rear suspension with pneumatic
compensation
If fitted on your vehicle, this type of
suspension regulates the variations in the
height of the rear platform of your vehicle
1. Automatic
correction

2. Manual correction
1 - Automatic correction of the height of the rear sill
The pneumatic suspension automatically
regulates the variations in the height of the
rear platform of your vehicle. A red warning light on your
instrument panel flashes if the
height is not at its optimum level
and requires correction, drive
slowly until this warning light is
switched off.
The automatic compensation is temporarily
inactive:
- if a door/the tailgate is open,
- when braking or when stopped at a red light (brake pedal pressed). With the vehicle stationary:
- press and hold,
- release the control.
Deactivation is confirmed by
the diode which is lit. It remains lit for
approximately 30 seconds.
Return to automatic correction
With the vehicle stationary:
- press and hold,
- release the control.
Return to automatic correction is
confirmed by the diode which is switched off.
According to the configurations, a bleep may
be heard during these operations.

Parking assistance
SAFETY
4
The audible and/or visual rear parking
assistance 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.

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 ASSISTANCE
Activation/Deactivation
You can activate or deactivate the
system by pressing this button.
The activation or deactivation of
the system is stored when the
vehicle stops.


Operating fault
In the event of an operating fault, when
reverse gear is engaged the diode on
the button comes on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message on the
display. Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.


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 on 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.
