Parking sensors
AUDIBLE REAR PARKING SENSORS
If fitted on your vehicle, the system consists
of four proximity sensors, installed in the
rear bumper.
They detect any obstacle: person, vehicle,
tree, fence, behind the vehicle during the
manoeuvre.
However, objects the size or thickness of
which are detected at the beginning of the
manoeuvre will no longer be detected at the
end of the manoeuvre: blind spots between
and below the sensors. Examples: stake,
roadworks cone or pavement post.
Engage reverse gear

The proximity information is indicated by an
audible signal of increasing frequency as the
vehicle approaches the obstacle.
When the distance between the rear of
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than
approximately thirty centimetres, the audible
signal becomes continuous.
The system cannot, in any circumstances,
take the place of the vigilance and
responsibility of the driver.


Stop the assistance

Change to neutral.
Malfunction

If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
If your vehicle is fitted
with this screen, a
message appears.
Good practice

In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow.

Cooling:
towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
Tyres:
check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identification
markings" section of chapter 9) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressures.
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle and that
the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to a
PEUGEOT dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a PEUGEOT
dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted using
the electrical pre-equipment installed at the
rear of the vehicle and in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions.


Good practice

In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a steep
slope in high temperatures), the engine
automatically limits its power. In this
case, the automatic cutting off of the air
conditioning allows the engine power to be
recovered.
If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 7.
Brakes:
towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually.

Side wind:
sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed.

ABS:
the system only controls the vehicle,
not the trailer.

Rear parking sensors:
the system does not
operate while the vehicle is towing.

Installation of radiocommunication
transmitters
You are advised to contact a representative
of the PEUGEOT marque before installing
accessory radiocommunication transmitters
with external aerial on your vehicle.
The PEUGEOT Network will inform
you of the specifications (frequency
waveband, maximum output power, aerial
position, specific installation conditions)
of the transmitters which can be fitted,
in accordance with the Motor Vehicle
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive
(2004/104/EC). Screenwash, interior and exterior cleaning
and maintenance products, replacement
bulbs, ...
The fitting of electrical equipment
or accessories which are not
recommended by Automobiles PEUGEOT
may result in the failure of your vehicle's
electronic system.
Please note this specific warning. You
are advised to contact a representative
of the Marque to be shown the range of
recommended equipment and accessories.
Depending on the country in which the
vehicle is sold or operated, it is compulsory
to have a high visibility safety jacket,
warning triangle and replacement bulbs
available in the vehicle.

CHECKS
Air filter and passenger compartmentfilter

A clogged passenger compartment fi lter may
reduce the performance of the air conditioning
system and generate undesirable odours. The
replacement intervals for these components
are indicated in the servicing booklet.
Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the vehicle
(urban driving...), change them twice as
often if necessary, refer to the "Under the
bonnet" section of chapter 7.
Manual gearbox

Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
To check the main levels and certain
components, in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule, refer to
the pages of the servicing booklet which
correspond to your vehicle's engine.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent quality
and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units as
important as the braking system, PEUGEOT
selects and offers specific products.
In order to avoid damaging the electrical
units, high pressure washing to clean the
engine compartment is strictly prohibited.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great
or there is a reduction in the performance
of the system, the parking brake should be
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer. Bleeding the water contained in the Diesel filter

If this warning lamp comes on, bleed
the fi lter, otherwise bleed regularly
each time the engine oil is changed.
To drain the water out, unscrew the bleed
screw or the water in Diesel sensor, located
at the base of the filter. Leave open until
all of the water has been drained out. Then
tighten the bleed screw or the water sensor.
HDi engines use advanced technology. All
work requires a special qualification which is
guaranteed by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Battery

At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

Brake pads

Brake pad wear depends on the style of
driving, in particular for vehicles which are
used in town, over short distances. It may
be necessary to check the thickness of the
pads, even between services.
Unless there is a leak on the system, a drop
in the brake fluid level indicates that the
brake pads are worn.


Brake disc/drum wear status

For any information relating to checking
the brake disc/drum wear status, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Oil filter

Change the fi lter regularly, in accordance with
the servicing schedule.







The presence of this label, in particular with the
Stop & Start system, indicates the use of a specifi c
12 V lead-acid battery with special technology and
specifi cation. The involvement of a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop is essential when
replacing or disconnecting the battery.
