Automatic day/night model

By means of a sensor, which measures thelight from the rear of the vehicle, this system
automatically and progressively changes between the day and night uses.
Adjustable mirror providing a central rear ward
view.
Equipped with an anti-dazzle system, which
darkens the mirror glass: this reduces
the nuisance to the driver caused by theheadlamps from following vehicles, low sun...
Rear view mirror
Manual day/night model
Adjustment
)Adjust the mirror so that the glass is

y in the "day" position.
Day / night position
)Pull the lever to change to the "night"anti-dazzle position. )Push the lever to change to the normal"day" position.In order to ensure optimum visibility during your manoeuvres, the mirror lightens automatically when reversegear is engaged.










Steering wheel adjustment
) When stationary, lower the control lever to yrelease the steering wheel adjustment mechanism. )Adjust the height and reach to suit your driving position.)Pull the control lever to lock the steering wheel
adjustment mechanism.

As a safety precaution, these operations should only be carried out while the vehicle is stationary.
As a safety measure, the mirrors should be adjusted to reduce the "blind spot".

Comfort
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines below: )
If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been parked in the sunfor a considerable time, first ventilate the passenger compar tment for a few minutes. Place the air flow control at a sufficient 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 wellas the air extractor located in the boot. )
Use in preference the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recirculation maycause 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 itin good working order. )
Ensure that the passenger compar tment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section). We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its second special active filter, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
)
The air conditioning uses power from the engine while operating. This results in anincrease in the vehicle's fuel consumption. When towing at or near maximum capacity or on steep slopes in high ambient 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 thevehicle when stationary, which is perfectly normal.)
To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to haveit checked regularly.)
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning


The air conditioning system does notcontain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.

138
Driving
This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) which comes within the field of detection of sensorslocated in the bumper.Certain types of obstacle (stake, roadworks cone, etc.) detected initially will no longer be detected at the end of the manoeuvre due to
the presence of blind spots.






Parking sensors


This function cannot, in any circumstances, take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of the driver.
The s
ystem is switched on by engaging reversegear. This is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you exit reverse gear.


Rear parking sensors


Audible assistance

The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
which increases as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is located.
When the distance between the vehicle andthe obstacle becomes less than approximatelythirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes continuous.



Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal bydisplaying bars in the multifunction screen
which move progressively nearer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is near, the "Danger"symbol is also displayed in the screen.

139
Driving
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.
When the vehicle is moving at a speed below 6 mph (10 km/h), cer tain soundsources (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic
drill, etc.) may trigger the audible signals of the parking sensor 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 buttongoes off.



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