Special position of the windscreen
wipers 
  In the minute following switching off of the 
ignition, any action on the stalk positions the 
wipers against the windscreen uprights.   This action enables you to position the 
wiper blades for winter parking, cleaning 
or replacement. 
  Refer to the "Changing a windscreen 
wiper blade" section of chapter 7. 
  To park the wipers in their normal position 
after this has been done, switch on the 
ignition and move the stalk.     When using an automatic car wash, 
switch off the ignition to avoid 
triggering the automatic wiping. 
  In winter, it is advisable to wait for the 
windscreen to completely clear of ice before 
operating automatic wipe.  
 
 
 Rear wiper 
 
Turn the ring to the first position.  
 
 
Rear screenwash
 
Turn the ring past the first 
position: the rear screenwash 
then the rear wiper operates for a 
fixed time. 
  In winter, in the event of a considerable 
amount of snow or ice, switch on the 
heated rear screen. Once the screen is 
clear, remove the snow or ice which has 
accumulated on the rear wiper blade. You 
can then operate the rear windscreen wiper.      
Activation 
  Press the control downwards. Activation of 
the function is accompanied by a message 
in the screen. 
   
The automatic rain sensitive windscreen 
wipers function must be reactivated 
 by 
pressing the stalk downwards, if the ignition 
has been switched off for more than 
one minute.  
   
Deactivation/Switching off 
  Place the windscreen wipers stalk in 
position  I 
,  1 
 or  2 
. Deactivation of the function 
is accompanied by a message in the screen. 
  In the event of malfunction of the automatic 
windscreen wipers, the windscreen wipers 
will operate in intermittent mode. 
  Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked.

Switching the function off 
 
 
 
-   Place the dial in position  0 
 or switch off 
the ignition to switch everything off.  
 
Good practice 
 
When changing the programmed reference 
speed by means of a maintained press, 
pay attention as the speed can increase 
or decrease rapidly. 
  Do not use the cruise control on slippery 
roads or in heavy traffic. 
  In the event of a steep slope, the cruise 
control cannot prevent the vehicle from 
exceeding the programmed speed. 
  In any event, the cruise control cannot 
replace the need to observe the speed 
limits, nor can it replace the need for 
vigilance and responsibility on the part 
of the driver. 
  It is advisable to leave your feet near the 
pedals. 
  To avoid any jamming under the pedals: 
   
 
-   ensure that the mat and its fixings 
on the floor are positioned correctly, 
   
-   never place one mat on top of another.  
 
Operating fault 
 
The programmed speed is cleared then 
replaced by three dashes. Contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop 
to have the system checked.     Using the accelerator: 
   
 
-   exceed the memorised speed until the 
speed required is reached, 
   
-   press the  Set + 
 or  Set - 
 button.  
  To memorise a speed lower than the 
previous one: 
   
 
-   press the  Set - 
 button.  
 
A brief press decreases the speed by 1 mph (km/h). 
  A maintained press decreases the speed in steps of 
5 mph (km/h).  
 
 
Cancelling the programmedreference speed 
 
When the vehicle becomes stationary, after 
switching off the ignition, the system no 
longer memorises a speed.  
 
FIXED SPEED LIMITER
 
If your vehicle is fitted with this function, 
the speed of your vehicle can be limited to 
a fixed speed of approximately 56, 60, 70 
or 80 mph (90, 100, 110 or 130 km/h). The 
fixed maximum speed cannot be changed. 
  The fixed speed limiter is not a function 
of the cruise control type. It cannot be 
activated or deactivated by the driver while 
driving.

Switching the function off 
 
 
 
-   Place the switch in position  0 
 or switch 
off the ignition to switch the system off.  
  The last programmed speed remains in the 
memory.  
 
 
Exceeding the programmed speed
 
Pressing the accelerator pedal in order to 
exceed the programmed speed will have 
no effect unless you press the pedal  firmly  
beyond the  point of resistance 
. 
  The limiter is deactivated temporarily and 
the programmed speed flashes.

Operating fault
 
The programmed speed is cleared then 
replaced by three dashes. 
  Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked. 
   
Flashing of the speed
 
The speed flashes: 
   
 
-   following forcing of the accelerator point 
of resistance, 
   
-   when the limiter cannot prevent an 
increase in the vehicle speed due to the 
profile of the road or on a steep descent, 
   
-   in the event of sharp acceleration.  
    To return to the limiter function, reduce your 
speed to below the programmed speed.    In any event, the speed limiter cannot 
replace the need to observe speed limits, 
nor can it replace the need for vigilance and 
responsibility on the part of the driver. 
  Always pay attention to the profile of the 
road and sharp acceleration and stay in 
complete control of your vehicle. 
  To avoid any jamming under the pedals: 
   
 
-   ensure that the mat and its fixings 
on the floor are positioned correctly, 
   
-   never place one mat on top of another.

Driver or passenger side comfort value 
  The value indicated on the display 
corresponds to a level of comfort and 
not a temperature in degrees Celsius or 
Fahrenheit.    Automatic operation 
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, 
located on the windscreen behind the 
mirror, it is used for regulation of the air 
conditioning.  
     
AUTO comfort programme 
  This is the normal air conditioning system 
operating mode. 
  Press this button, the  AUTO 
 symbol is 
displayed. 
  Depending on the comfort value selected, 
the system controls the distribution, 
the fl ow and the intake of air to guarantee comfort 
and a suffi cient circulation of air in the passenger 
compartment. No further action on your part is required. 
  When the engine is cold, to prevent an 
excessive diffusion of cold air, the ventilation 
will reach its optimum level gradually. 
  For your comfort, the settings are stored 
when the ignition is switched off and are 
reinstated the next time the vehicle is 
started, if the temperature in the passenger 
compartment has not changed significantly; 
otherwise, operation resumes in automatic 
mode.    Turn this control to the left or to 
the right to decrease or increase 
the value. A setting around the 
value 21 provides optimum 
comfort. However, depending on your 
requirements, a setting between 18 and 
24 is usual.

2 -  Manual correction of the height
of the rear sill
  If your vehicle is fitted with this adjustment, 
the control is located on the right-hand side 
at the rear of the vehicle. 
  This manual adjustment permits "lowering" 
or "raising" of the height of the sill of the 
rear platform to facilitate operations in a 
parking area. 
  This adjustment of the height of the sill is 
restricted by a lower limit and an upper limit.    
First use 
  To initialise the function, press the control 
for approximately 2 seconds.     
Malfunctions 
  If the load sill is not adjusted when the 
control is pressed, "3 beeps" indicate a 
malfunction for the following reasons: 
   
 
-   foot on the brake pedal with the key 
in the ignition, 
   
-   excessive use of the manual correction, 
   
-   low battery charge, 
   
-  other.  
  If the audible signal persists, contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.     Carry out these operations with the vehicle 
still stationary and: 
   
 
-   with the front and side doors closed, 
   
-   with the parking brake applied, 
   
-   do not leave your foot on the brake

Deactivation of manual height correction Good practice 
 
When stationary and with the ignition key 
removed, excessive use of the system 
consumes battery power.    
Long term parking 
  Avoid parking for a long duration on 
ground which could present a potential 
obstacle as your vehicle could lower. 
  Following a long period out of use, the 
height of the platform may change due 
to the automatic height correction on 
unlocking or on opening one of your 
vehicle's doors.     With the vehicle stationary: 
   
 
-   press and hold, 
   
-   release the control.  
  Deactivation is confirmed by 
the LED which is on. It remains on for 
approximately 30 seconds.  
   
Return to manual height correction 
  You must deactivate the manual height 
correction in the following situations: 
   
 
-   when working underneath the vehicle, 
   
-   when changing a wheel, 
   
-   when the vehicle is being transported 
by lorry, train, ferry, boat, ...  
 
   Driving with the height of the rear platform: 
   
 
-   too low, risks damaging the technical 
components underneath the vehicle, 
   
-   too high, risks unstable driving.  
  If you start and the warning lamp flashes, 
to switch it off: 
   
 
-   correct the position of the manual 
control which is still at the lower or 
upper limit, 
   
-   or drive slowly at above 6 mph 
(10 km/h), until height correction 
returns to automatic mode.     
Warning lamp 
  Refer to the "Instruments and controls" 
section of chapter 2.       With the vehicle stationary: 
   
 
-   press and hold, 
   
-   release the control.  
  Return to manual correction is 
confirmed by the LED which goes off. 
  According to the configuration, a beep may 
be heard during these operations.
