Electric parking brake


Manual application/release
The parking brake can be applied manu-
ally
by pulling
the control lever A
.
When the ignition is on, the parking
brake can be released
manually by
pressing the brake pedal
and pulling

then releasing
the control lever A
.
Automatic application/release
Press the accelerator, the parking brake
is released automatically and progres-
sively on acceleration.
When the ignition is switched off
,
( Ready
lamp off) the parking brake is
applied
automatically.

If you get out of your vehicle with
the hybrid system active, apply
the parking brake manually.

Before getting out of
the vehicle, check that
the braking warning
lamp ( red !
) and the
warning lamp P
are on
(not fl ashing).
Never leave a child alone in the ve-
hicle with the ignition on; they could
release the parking brake.
139 If this warning lamp is on in the
instrument panel, the automatic
application/release are deacti-
vated
.
If you are towing a trailer or if
the slope could alter (transport
by ship, lorry, recovery of the
vehicle, ...), make a manual
maximum application of the parking
brake (long pull on the control lever A
)
to immobilise the vehicle.

HYBRID SYSTEM

VEHICLE RECOVERY


Before doing any work, with the ignition
on, press the brake pedal and put the
gear lever in position N
, then switch off
the ignition
If necessary because access to the ve-
hicle is diffi cult, it can be moved a few
dozen metres at a speed not exceeding
6 mph (10 km/h).
The front or rear wheels must not be on
the ground, use a fl at-bed lorry or trailer
to recover the vehicle.
Use the towing eyes only to pull a vehicle
out or to pull it onto a fl at-bed.

COMFORT

The air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does not pres-
ent any danger to the ozone layer.














Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and mainte-
nance guidelines below:


)
If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a considerable time, fi rst ventilate the passenger com-
partment for a few minutes.
Place the air fl ow control at a suffi cient level to provide an adequate renewal
of air in the passenger compartment.

)
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air
intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents
and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.

)
Use in preference the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recir-
culation may cause misting of the windows and side windows.

)
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for
regulation of the automatic air conditioning system.

)
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in good working order.

)
Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition and have
the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter. Thanks
to its second special active fi lter, it contributes to the purifi cation of the air
breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compart-
ment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).

)
The air conditioning uses power from the engine while operating. This
results in an increase in the vehicle's fuel consumption.
When towing at or near maximum capacity or on steep slopes in high ambi-
ent temperatures, switching off the air conditioning saves engine power and
so improves towing capacity.
Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water
under the vehicle when stationary, which is perfectly normal.

)
To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also ad-
vised to have it checked regularly.

)
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop. The control button is located
on the air conditioning system
control panel.






REAR SCREEN DEMIST -
DEFROST



)
Switch off the demist/de-
frost of the rear screen
and door mirrors as soon
as it is no longer needed
as lower current consump-
tion results in reduced fuel
consumption.



Switching on



)
Press this button to demist/defrost
the rear screen and the door mir-
rors. The indicator lamp associated
with the button comes on.



Switching off

The demist/defrost switches off auto-
matically to prevent an excessive con-
sumption of current.


)
It is possible to stop the demist/de-
frost operation before it is switched
off automatically by pressing the
button again. The indicator lamp as-
sociated with the button goes off.









The rear screen demisting - defrosting
can only operate when the hybrid system
is active.

SAFETY
129














DIRECTION INDICATORS

If you forget to cancel the di-
rection indicators for more than
twenty seconds, the volume of
the audible signal will increase if the
speed is above 40 mph (60 km/h).


)
Lower the lighting control stalk fully
when moving to the left.

)
Raise the lighting control stalk fully
when moving to the right.







HAZARD WARNING LAMPS

A visual warning by means of the direc-
tion indicators to alert other road users
to a vehicle breakdown, towing or ac-
cident.


)
Tilt or press button A
, the direction
indicators fl ash.
They can operate with the ignition off.













Automatic operation of hazard
warning lamps
When braking in an emergency, de-
pending on the deceleration, the hazard
warning lamps come on automatically.
They switch off automatically the fi rst
time you accelerate.


)
You can also switch them off by
pressing the button.










HORN



)
Press one of the spokes of the steering
wheel.
Use the horn moderately and
only in the following cases:


- immediate danger,

- overtaking a cyclist or pedestrian,

- when approaching an area where
there is no visibility.

Audible warning to alert other road users
to an imminent danger.

"Motorway" function
Move the stalk briefl y upwards or down-
wards, without going beyond the point
of resistance; the corresponding direc-
tion indicators will fl ash 3 times.

The electric parking brake combines
2 operational modes:


- Automatic application/release

Application is automatic when the
engine stops, release is automatic
on use of the accelerator (activated
by default),

- Manual application/release

The parking brake can be applied/
released manually by pulling control
lever A

ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE


Deactivation is recommended in
particularly cold conditions (ice)
and during towing (recovery...).
Refer to the "Manual release"
paragraph.

Programming the mode
Depending on the country of registration
of the vehicle, the automatic application
when the engine is switched off and the
automatic release when you press the
accelerator can be deactivated.
If this warning lamp in the in-
strument panel comes on, the
automatic mode is deactivated.
The system can be activated/
deactivated by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
The parking brake is then applied and
released manually. When the driver's
door is opened, there is an audible beep
and a message is displayed if the brake
is not applied.

Do not place any object (packet of
cigarettes, telephone, ...) behind
the electric brake control.
