Ventilation  
 
 
 
Good practice 
 
For maximum cooling or heating of the 
passenger compartment, it is possible 
to exceed the value 15 by turning until 
LO is displayed or the value 27 by 
turning until HI is displayed. 
  On entering the vehicle, the inside 
temperature may be much colder (or 
warmer) than is comfortable. There is 
no advantage in changing the value 
displayed in order to quickly reach the 
level of comfort required. The system 
will use its maximum performance to 
reach the comfort value set.  
 
DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING WITH SEPARATE SETTINGS  
   
Automatic operation 
 
 
AUTO comfort programme 
  This is the normal air conditioning 
system operating mode.    
Driver or passenger side comfort 
value 
  The value indicated in the screen 
corresponds to a level of comfort and 
not a temperature in degrees Celsius 
or Fahrenheit. 
  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. 
  Do not cover the sunshine sensor 
located on the dashboard.  
 
  Press this button, the  AUTO 
 
symbol is displayed. 
  In accordance with 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 air diffuser 
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. 
  The automatic function will no longer 
be maintained if you change a setting 
manually (AUTO is cleared).

Parking sensors  
 
SAFETY
4
 
The audible and/or visual rear parking 
sensor system consists of four 
proximity sensors, installed in the 
rear bumper. The sensors detect any 
obstacle which enters the fi eld: person, 
vehicle, tree, fence, behind the vehicle 
during the manoeuvre. 
  Certain objects detected at the 
beginning of the manoeuvre will no 
longer be detected at the end of the 
manoeuvre due to the blind spots 
between and below the sensors. 
Examples: stake, roadworks cone or 
pavement post.

Display in the screen  
 
 
 
Stop the assistance 
 
Change to neutral.     An audible signal confi rms the 
activation of the system by engaging 
reverse gear. 
  The proximity information is indicated 
by an audible signal which becomes 
more rapid 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.

Parking sensors  
 
 
 
Activation / Deactivation    
Malfunction 
 
In the event of a malfunction, when 
reverse gear is engaged the LED in the 
button comes on, accompanied by an 
audible signal and a message in the 
screen. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or 
a qualifi ed workshop.  
 
 
Good practice 
 
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that 
the sensors are not covered with mud, 
ice or snow. 
  The system will be deactivated 
automatically if a trailer is being towed 
or if a bicycle carrier is fi tted (vehicle 
fi tted with a towbar or bicycle carrier 
recommended by PEUGEOT). 
  The parking assistance cannot, in 
any circumstances, take the place of 
the vigilance and responsibility of the 
driver.     You can activate or deactivate 
the system by pressing this 
button. 
  The activation or deactivation 
of the system is stored when 
the vehicle stops.

Towing a trailer
   
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 air conditioning is 
automatically cut off to save engine 
power. 
   
Tyres 
 
  Check the tyre pressures of the 
towing vehicle (see the "Identifi cation 
markings" section of chapter 8) and of 
the trailer, observing the recommended 
pressures. See the "Levels" section of 
chapter 6.   If the coolant temperature 
warning lamp comes on, stop 
the vehicle and switch off the 
engine as soon as possible.    
Brakes 
 
  Towing increases the braking distance. 
Drive at a moderate speed, change 
down early and brake gradually. 
   
Towbar 
 
We recommend the use of genuine 
PEUGEOT towbars and their 
harnesses, which have been tested 
and approved from the design stage of 
your vehicle, and that you entrust the 
fi tting of this equipment to a PEUGEOT 
dealer. 
  If this equipment is not fi tted by a 
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative that 
it is fi tted using the electrical pre-
equipment installed at the rear of the 
vehicle and in accordance with the 
manufacturer's instructions. 
  In accordance with the general 
instructions a reminder of which has 
been given above, we draw your 
attention to the risk associated with 
fi tting a towbar or electrical accessory 
not recommended by PEUGEOT. 
Fitting such equipment could result in 
the failure of your vehicle's electronic 
system. Please obtain information from 
the Manufacturer before fi tting this type 
of equipment.      
Side wind 
 
  Sensitivity to side wind is increased. 
Drive smoothly and at a moderate 
speed. 
   
ABS/DSC 
 
  The ABS or DSC systems only control 
the vehicle, not the trailer or caravan. 
   
Rear parking sensors 
 
  The parking sensors system does not 
function while the vehicle is towing.

Snow screen  
 
REMOVABLE SNOW SCREEN
 
According to country, the removable 
snow screen is installed on the lower 
part of the front bumper to prevent the 
accumulation of snow at the radiator 
cooling fan. 
   
FITTING 
   
REMOVAL 
 
 
 
-   Pass a screwdriver into the hole 
located near each of the clips. 
   
-   Use the screwdriver as a lever to 
unclip the four clips  B 
 in turn.  
     
 
-   Offer up the snow screen facing its 
centring pin  A 
 on the front bumper. 
   
-   Put it in place by pressing at each 
clip  B 
 located in the four corners.  
 
  Do not forget to remove the 
snow screen when the exterior 
temperature is higher than 10°C 
(no risk of snowfall) and when towing. 
   
6.  REFITTING THE REPAIRED 
WHEEL 
  The wheel is refi tted as described in 
step 5, not forgetting to refi t the wheel 
trim. 
  Refer to the "Identifi cation 
markings" section of chapter 8 to 
locate the tyre label. 
  Refer to the "Instruments and 
controls" section of chapter 2, 
"Tyre under-infl ation detection" 
part, for recommendations after 
changing a wheel fi tted with a tyre 
under-infl ation detection sensor. 
  The spare wheel is not designed 
to be used over long distances. 
Have the tightening of the bolts 
and the tyre pressure checked by 
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed 
workshop as soon as possible. Have 
the original wheel repaired and refi tted 
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed 
workshop as soon as possible.
