In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the sensors are not covered with mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear isengaged, an audible signal (long beep)indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
Cer tain sound sources (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger the audible signals of the parkingsensor system. In th
e event of a malfunction
of the system, when reversegear is engaged this warning
lamp is displayed in the instrument panel
and/or a message appears in the screen,
accompanied by an audible signal (short beep).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
wor
kshop.

Operating fault

In addition to the rear parking sensors, the front
parking sensors are triggered when an obstacle
is detected in front and the speed of the vehicle
is still below 6 mph
(10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds
in
forward gear, if no fur ther obstacles are
detected or when the speed of the vehicle exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
Front par king sensors
The function will be deactivated automatically if a trailer is being towedor a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle fitted with a towbar or bicycle carrier recommended by PEUGEOT).

Deactivation / Activation of thefront and rear parking sensors
The function is deactivated by pressing this
button. The indicator lamp in the button
comes on.Pressing this button again reactivates thefunction. The indicator lamp in the button
goes off.



The sound emitted by the speaker (frontor rear) indicates whether the obstacle is in front or behind.

Driving
System which measures the parking spaceavailable between two vehicles or obstacles. Itmeasures the size of the space and gives you
information on:
- the possibility of fitting into a free space,
depending on the dimensions of your
vehicle and the distances needed for manoeuvring,
- the level of difficulty of the parkingmanoeuvre.
The s
ystem does not measure spaces which
are clearly much smaller or larger than the size of the vehicle.
The warning lamp in the control A
can have two different states:

-
on fixed:
the system is switched on by a press on control A.

- off:the system is not switched on,

Driving
When you have identified a parking space:)Engage a gear on a manual gearbox or put
the gear lever in position A (electronic gear control gearbox) or in position D(automaticgearbox).)Press button Ato star t the system. )Operate the direction indicator on theside where the space is to be measured; a message is displayed and the warning
lamp flashes to confirm that measurement
is in progress.
)During measurement, go for ward the
length of the space, at a speed less than
12 mph (20 km/h), to prepare for your manoeuvre.)Once the measurement has beencompleted, the system informs you of
the level of difficulty of the manoeuvre
by a message in the multifunction screen accompanied by an audible signal. The s
ystem displays one of the followingmessages:
Parking possible
Parking difficult
Parking not advised

If the lateral distance between your vehicle and the parking space is toogreat, the system may not be able to measure the space.


The system remains available after each measurement and can therefore measure several spaces in succession. In poor or wintry weather, ensure thatthe sensors are free of dir t, ice or snow.
The parking space sensor systemdeactivates the front parking sensorswhen measuring forwards.
If there is a fault, have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The s
ystem switches itself off automatically:


- when you engage reverse gear,

- when
you switch off the ignition,

- if measuring is not requested,

- within five minutes of switching on thesystem,

- if the vehicle speed exceeds the threshold
o
f 45 mph (70 km/h) for one minute.

Safety








Ty r e u n d e r - i nfl ation detection

Sensors fitted in each valve trigger a warning in
the event of malfunction (speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).
The spare wheel is not fitted with a sensor.


All repairs and changing of tyres on awheel fitted with this system must becarried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you install awheel which is not detected by your vehicle (example: fitting of snow tyres), you must have the system reinitialised
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifiedworkshop.
This message is also displayed whenone of the wheels is away from thevehicle (being repaired) or when one or more wheels without a sensor are fitted.


The tyre under-inflation detectionsystem is an aid to driving which doesnot replace the need for the driver to bevigilant or to drive responsibly.
This system does not avoid the needto have the tyre pressures checkedregularly (refer to "Identification markings") to ensure that the optimumdynamic performance of the vehicleis maintained and prevent premature wear of the tyres, particularly in arduousdriving conditions (heavy load, highspeed). The tyre pressures must be checked cold, at least once a month. Remember to check the pressure of the spare wheel.
The tyre under-inflation detection system may experience temporary interference due to electromagnetic signals on a frequency close to that used by the system.
A message appears in the instrument panelscreen, accompanied by an audible signal, to
identify the wheel concerned.

Under-infl ated tyre
This warning lamp and
the STOPwarning lamp come on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the instrument panel screen identifying the wheel concerned. )
Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden
movement of the steering wheel and thebrakes.) Change the damaged wheel (punctured
or very deflated tyre), and have the tyre
pressure checked as soon as possible.

Puncture
A message appears in the instrument panel
screen, accompanied by an audible signal,
to identify the wheel or wheels which are not
detected or to indicate a fault in the system.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifiedworkshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
)Check the tyre pressures as soon aspossible.
This check must be carried out when the tyres are cold.
