Gearboxes and steering wheel

To change gear easily, always depress the
clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedal:


- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,

- never fit one mat on top of another.
When driving, avoid leaving your hand on
the gear knob as the force exerted, even if
slight, may wear the internal components of
the gearbox over time.


GEARBOXES AND STEERING WHEEL

Steering mounted controls

Automatic illumination of headlamps

Activation
Turn the ring to the AUTO
position. The
activation of this function is accompanied by
a message in the screen.

If the sunshine sensor does not
function correctly
, the lighting comes on
accompanied by the service warning lamp,
an audible signal and a message in the
screen.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.


HEADLAMP BEAM

Depending on the load in your vehicle, the
beam setting must be adjusted.

0
- 1 or 2 people in the front seats.

1
- 5 people.

2
- 6 to 9 people.

3
- Driver + maximum authorised loads. Do not cover the sunshine sensor
located on the windscreen, behind
the mirror. It is used for the automatic
illumination of headlamps and for the
automatic rain sensitive wipers. The sidelamps and dipped
beam headlamps switch
on automatically if the light
is poor, or during operation
of the windscreen wipers. They switch off as
soon as the light becomes bright enough or
the windscreen wipers stop.
This function is not compatible with the
daytime running lamps.
Deactivation
Turn the ring forwards or rearwards. The
deactivation of this function is accompanied
by a message in the screen.
The function is deactivated temporarily when
you use the manual lighting control stalk.

Initial setting is position 0. In foggy weather or in snow, the
sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light. As a consequence, the lighting will not
come on automatically. If necessary, you
must switch on the dipped beam headlamps
manually.


Travelling abroad
If using your vehicle in a country
that drives on the other side of the road,
the headlamps must be adjusted to avoid
dazzling on-coming drivers.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Ventilation
ADDITIONAL HEATING

Vehicles fitted with an HDi engine may be
fitted with a heater. When the engine is at
idle or the vehicle is stationary, it is normal
to notice a high-pitched whistling noise and
a slight emission of smoke and odour.

Rear ventilation


Coolant circuit heater
This is an additional and separate system
which heats the Diesel engine cooling
system to make starting easier.
It improves the demisting and defrosting
performance.

Rear suspension


Metal suspension

This equipment adopts long movement limiters
which make it possible to guarantee stable
behaviour both when loaded and when empty.
No action on your part is required except to
ensure that maintenance is carried out and that
the authorised loads are complied with. the limit of the authorised values. On board,
the increasing or lightening of the load on
the vehicle's platform is detected by two
height sensors. When all of the doors are
closed, the sensors trigger the automatic
height correction and determine the optimum
height of the sill for the vehicle's driving
conditions.
Deactivation of automatic height correction
The control which permits deactivation of
automatic regulation is located on the right-
hand side, at the rear of the vehicle.
Two types of suspension are available. You must deactivate automatic height
correction manually in the following
situations:


- when working underneath the vehicle,

- when changing a wheel,

- when the vehicle is being transported by
lorry, train, ferry, boat, ...



Rear suspension with pneumatic
height correction
If fitted on your vehicle, this type of
suspension regulates the variations in the
height of the rear platform of your vehicle
irrespective of the weight of the load, within
Two functions


1.
Automatic height
correction

2.
Manual height
correction


1 - Automatic correction of the
height of the rear sill
The pneumatic suspension automatically
regulates the variations in the height of the
rear platform of your vehicle.
The automatic height correction is
temporarily inactive:


- if a door / the tailgate is open,

- when braking or when stopped at a red
traffic signal (brake pedal pressed). With the vehicle stationary:


- press and hold,

- release the control.

Return to automatic correction
With the vehicle stationary:


- press and hold,

- release the control.
According to the configurations, a beep may
be heard during these operations.
A red warning light on your
instrument panel fl ashes if the
height is not at its optimum level
and requires correction, drive slowly
until this warning lamp goes off. Return to automatic height correction is
confirmed by the LED which goes off. Deactivation is confirmed by the LED which
is on. It remains on for approximately
30 seconds.

Mirrors and windows

Manual rear view mirror

The rear view mirror has two positions:


- day (normal),

- night (anti-dazzle).
To change from one to the other, push or
pull the lever on the lower edge of the mirror.
SURVEILLANCE MIRROR

This mirror, placed on top of the central
mirror, enables the driver or front passenger
to observe all the rear seats.
Fitted on its own ball joint, it's manual
adjustment is simple and provides a view of
the rear interior of the vehicle.
It can also be adjusted for improved visibility
during manoeuvres or when overtaking.
REAR WINDOWS


2nd row side windows
If fitted on your vehicle, the 2nd row side
windows can be opened.
Squeeze the two controls then move the
window sideways. 4 notches are available.
While driving, the window must be closed or
secured on one of the 4 notches.

3rd row rear quarter lights
These are fixed.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM(ABS - EBFD)

The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake force
distribution) systems improve the stability
and manoeuvrability of your vehicle on
braking, in particular on poor or slippery
surfaces.
The ABS prevents locking of the wheels,
the EBFD provides control of the braking
pressure wheel by wheel.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock. It does not reduce the braking
distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice, oil, etc...)
the ABS may increase the braking distance.
When braking in an emergency, do not
hesitate to press the brake pedal firmly,
without releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able to
continue to manoeuvre the vehicle to avoid
an obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be felt by
slight vibration of the brake pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are recommended by
PEUGEOT. If this warning lamp comes on,
together with the brake and STOP
warning lamps, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message
in the screen, it indicates a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution which
could result in a loss of control of the vehicle
on braking.

Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.

EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables the
optimum braking pressure to be reached more
quickly, press the pedal fi rmly without releasing it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake
pedal is activated.
This alters the resistance of the brake pedal under
your foot. If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the screen, it
indicates a malfunction of the ABS
which could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle on braking. In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
To prolong the operation of the emergency
braking assistance system: keep your foot
on the brake pedal.
