Mirrors and windows

MONITORING MIRROR

This mirror, placed on top of the
central mirror, enables the driver or
front passenger to observe all the rear
seats.
Fitted on its own ball joint, it's manual
adjustment is simple and provides a
view of the rear interior of the vehicle.
It can also be adjusted for improved
visibility during manoeuvres or when
overtaking.

Areas for toll cards/car park
tickets
The athermic windscreen has two non-
refl ective zones located either side of
the base of the interior mirror.
They are intended for affi xing toll cards
and/or car park tickets.

REAR WINDOWS

To partially open the rear windows, tilt
the lever and push it fully to lock the
windows in the open position.

Manual interior mirror

The interior mirror has two positions:


- day (normal),

- night (anti-dazzle).
To change from one to the other, push
or pull the lever on the lower edge of
the mirror.

ELECTRIC WINDOWS



1. Driver's electric window control

2. Passenger electric window control
There are two operating modes: Lower the window fully, then raise it, it
will rise in steps of a few centimetres
each time the control is pressed.
Repeat the operation until the window
is fully closed.
Continue to press the control for at
least one second after the window
closed position has been reached.
The safety auto-reverse does not
operate during these operations.


Safety auto-reverse

When the window rises and meets an
obstacle, it stops and partially lowers.


Automatic mode

Press or pull the control, beyond the
point of resistance. The window opens
or closes fully when the control is
released. Pressing the control again
stops the movement of the window.
The electrical functions of the electric
windows are deactivated:


- approximately 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off,

- after one of the front doors is
opened, if the ignition is off.



Good practice

If the electric windows meet an
obstacle during operation, you must
reverse the movement of the window.
To do this, press the control concerned.
When the driver operates the
passenger electric window controls, he
must ensure that no one is preventing
correct closing of the windows.
The driver must ensure that the
passengers use the electric windows
correctly.
Be aware of children when operating
the windows.
Following several consecutive closing/
opening operations of the electric
window control, a protection system is
triggered which only authorises closing
of the window. After closing, wait
approximately 40 minutes. Once this
time has elapsed, the control becomes
operational again.


Manual mode

Press or pull the control, without
passing the point of resistance. The
window stops when you release
the control.


Reinitialisation

Following reconnection of the battery,
or in the event of a malfunction, the
safety auto-reverse function must be
reinitialised.

PARKING BRAKE

Applying

Pull the parking brake lever up to
immobilise your vehicle.
Check that the parking brake is applied
fi rmly before leaving the vehicle.


Releasing

Pull the lever and press the button to
lower the parking brake lever.

HAZARD WARNING LAMPS

Press this button, the direction
indicators fl ash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
The hazard warning lamps should only
be used in dangerous situations, when
stopping in an emergency or when
driving in unusual conditions.
When parking on a slope, direct your
wheels towards the pavement and pull
the parking brake lever up.
There is no advantage in engaging
a gear after parking the vehicle,
particularly if the vehicle is loaded.

If the parking brake is still on or has
not been released properly, this is
indicated by this warning lamp which
comes on on the instrument panel.

Automatic lighting of hazard
warning lights
When braking in an emergency,
depending on the force of deceleration,
the hazard warning lights come
on automatically. They switch off
automatically the fi rst time you
accelerate.
It is also possible to switch them off by
pressing the button on the fascia.

106


Parking sensors

The audible and/or visual rear parkin
g
assistance consists of four proximity sensors, installed in the rear bumper. The sensors detect any obstacle whichenters the fi eld: 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 spotsbetween and below the sensors. Examples: stake, roadworks cone or
pavement post.

Engage reverse gear REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE

Stop the assistance
Change to neutral.
An audible signal confi rms the
activation of the system by engagingreverse gear.
The proximit
y information is indicated by an audible signal which becomes more rapid as the vehicle approaches
the obstacle. When the distancebetween the rear of the vehicle and
the obstacle is less than approximatelythirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes continuous.

y an audible signal and a message on the display. Consult a PEUGEOTdealer.


Good practice
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered with mud,
i
ce or snow.
The s
ystem will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towedor if a bicycle carrier is fi tted (vehiclefi tted with a towbar or bicycle carrier recommended by PEUGEOT ).
The parkin
g assistance cannot, in
any circumstances, take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of
the driver. Y
ou can activate or deactivate
the system by pressing thisbutton.

Th
e activation or deactivation of the system is stored when
the vehicle stops.

ABS

Driving safely

(ABS - EBFD)

The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake
force distribution) systems improve the
stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle on braking, in particular on
poor or slippery surfaces.
The ABS prevents locking of the
wheels, the EBFD provides control of
the braking pressure wheel by wheel. If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on
the display, it indicates a
malfunction of the ABS which
could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle on braking.
If this warning light comes
on, together with the brake
and STOP warning lights,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
display, it indicates a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution
which could result in a loss of control of
the vehicle on braking.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables
the optimum braking pressure to be
reached more quickly, press the pedal
fi rmly without releasing it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is activated.
This alters the resistance of the brake
pedal under your foot.
To prolong the operation of the
emergency braking assistance system:
keep your foot on the brake pedal.

Good practice

The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock. It does not
reduce the braking distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice, oil, etc...)
the ABS may increase the braking
distance. When braking in an
emergency, do not hesitate to press
the brake pedal fi rmly, without
releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able
to continue to manoeuvre the vehicle
to avoid an obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be
felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), ensure that these are
recommended by PEUGEOT.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.

ESP OFF
109


Driving safely

SAFETY

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL
(ESP)
These systems are linked and
complement the ABS.
The ASR system is very useful for
maintaining optimum drive and
avoiding losses of control of the vehicle
on acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent
the wheels skidding, by acting on the
brakes of the drive wheels and on the
engine. It also allows the directional
stability of the vehicle to be improved
on acceleration.
Use the ESP to hold your course
without attempting to countersteer.
If there is a variation between the
trajectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESP
system automatically acts on the
engine and the brake of one or more
wheels, in order to put the vehicle back
on course.

Disarming the ASR/ESP
systems
In certain exceptional conditions
(starting the vehicle when stuck in mud
or snow, or on loose ground...), it could
prove useful to disarm the ASR and
ESP systems to make the wheels spin
and regain grip.
Operating check


Good practice

The ASR/ESP systems offer increased
safety during normal driving, but
should not incite the driver to take risks
or to drive at high speed.
The operation of these systems is
ensured if the recommendations
of the manufacturer regarding
the wheels (tyres and rims), the
braking components, the electronic
components and the fi tting and repair
procedures within the PEUGEOT
network are observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.


Operation of the ASR and ESP
systems
The LED fl ashes when the
ASR or ESP is triggered.

They engage again:


- automatically above 30 mph
(50 km/h), When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the indicator
light comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message on the display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
The warning light may also come on if
the tyres are under-infl ated. Check the
pressure of each tyre.



- Press the button or turn
the dial to the ESP OFF
position (depending on
model).

- The indicator light comes on: the ASR
and ESP systems no longer act.

- manually by pressing the
button again or by turning
the dial to this position
(depending on model).

"GRIP CONTROL"


Correct use
Your vehicle is designed principally to
drive on tarmacked roads but it allows
you to drive on other less passable
terrain occasionally.
However, it does not permit all-terrain
activities such as:


- crossing and driving on
terrain which could damage
the underframe or strip away
components (fuel pipe, fuel
cooler, ...) due to obstacles or
stones in particular,

- driving on terrain with steep
gradients and poor grip,

- crossing a stream.

When driving on snow, mud or sand,
this traction system is linked with
all-season M+S (Mud and Snow) tyres
which offer an excellent compromise
between safety, grip and traction.
This equipment allows you to
manoeuvre in most conditions of poor
grip.Pressing the accelerator pedal
should be suffi cient so that the
power of the engine can ensure
optimum management of the various
parameters.
