Lighting controls
System for selection and control of the various front and rear lamps providing the vehicle's lighting and signalling.
Main lighting
The various front and rear lamps of the vehicle
are designed to provide the best visibility for the
driver and to signal the presence of the vehicle
to other road users:
- sidelamps, to be seen,
- dipped beam headlamps to see without
dazzling other drivers,
- main beam headlamps to see clearly when
the road is clear,
- directional headlamps for improved
visibility when cornering.
Additional lighting
Other lamps are installed to fulfil the
requirements of par ticular driving conditions:
- rear foglamps to better signal the presence
of the vehicle in foggy conditions,
- front foglamps for better visibility in foggy
conditions and to improve lighting at
intersections and when parking,
- daytime running lamps to be seen during
the day.
Automatic lighting
functions
Various automatic lighting functions are also
available depending on options:
- guide-me-home lighting,
- directional headlamps,
- welcome lighting,
- daytime running lamps,
- automatic illumination of headlamps,
- automatic headlamp dipping.

Parking lamps
Side markers for the vehicle by illumination of
the sidelamps on the traffic side only.
)
Within one minute of switching off the
ignition, operate the lighting control stalk up
or down depending on the traffic side (for
example: when parking on the left; lighting
control stalk upwards; the right hand
sidelamps are on).
This is confirmed by an audible signal and
illumination of the corresponding direction
indicator warning lamp in the instrument panel.
To switch off the parking lamps, return the
lighting control stalk to position 0 or switch on
the ignition. Temporarily keeping the dipped beam
headlamps on after the vehicle's ignition has
been switched off makes the driver's exit easier
when the light is poor.
Manual guide-me-home

Switching on
)
Within 30 seconds or a minute after
switching of the ignition (according to the
automatic guide-me-home lighting duration
programmed in the configuration menu),
"flash" the headlamps using the lighting
stalk.
)
A fur ther "headlamp flash" switches the
function off.
Switching off
The manual guide-me-home lighting switches
off automatically after a set time.

When the dipped or main beam headlamps
are on, this function enables the light beams to
provide improved lighting of the side of the road
when cornering.
The use of this function, associated with the
xenon headlamps only, considerably improves
the quality of your lighting when cornering.

Programming
Operating fault
The function is activated or
deactivated via the configuration
menu (in the instrument panel
screen).
When stationary or moving at very low
speed or when reverse gear is engaged,
the function is inactive.
The status of the function remains in the
memory when the ignition is switched off. If a fault occurs, this warning lamp
flashes in the instrument panel,
accompanied by a message in the
instrument panel screen.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Additional directional lighting
With dipped or main beams, this function
makes use of the beam from a front foglamp
to illuminate the inside of a bend, when the
vehicle speed is below 25 mph (approximately
40 km/h).
This additional lighting is particularly useful in
town, at intersections, on very winding roads,
when parking, ...

Switching on
This function starts
- when the direction indicator is switched on
(the foglamp on the same side is switched on),
or
- from a cer tain angle of rotation of the
steering wheel.
Switching off
The system is deactivated:
- below a cer tain angle of rotation of the
steering wheel,
- when switching off the direction indicator,
Programming
The system is activated or
deactivated in the instrument panel
screen configuration menu.
The system is activated by default.

)
Raise the lighting control stalk fully when
moving to the right.
"Motorway" function
Move the stalk briefly upwards or downwards,
without going beyond the point of resistance;
the corresponding direction indicators will flash
3 times.
If you forget to cancel the direction
indicators for more than twenty
seconds, the volume of the audible
signal will increase if the speed is above
40 mph (60 km/h).
Hazard warning lamps
Press the button, the direction indicators flash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
Automatic operation of
hazard warning lamps
When braking in an emergency, depending on
the rate of deceleration, as well as when the
ABS regulation is invoked or in the event of an
impact, the hazard warning lamps come on
automatically.
They switch off automatically the first time you
accelerate.
)
You can also switch them off by pressing
the button.

Electronic stability programme (ESP)
incorporating the following systems:
- the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the
electronic brake force distribution system
(EBFD),
- the emergency braking assistance,
- the traction control (ASR),
- the dynamic stability control (DSC).
Electronic stability programme (ESP)
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution system (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and offers improved control, in particular on
poor or slippery road sur faces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution system
manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure more
quickly and therefore reduce the stopping
distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a
reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an
increase in the effectiveness of the braking.
Anti-skid regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Traction
Control) optimises traction in order to avoid
wheel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that required by
the driver, the DSC monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws
of physics.
