FRONT PARKING SENSORS

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 further obstacles are detected
or when the speed of the vehicle exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
This supplements the audible signal by displaying bars in the
multifunction screen which move progressively nearer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is near, the "Danger" symbol is displayed in the
screen.

The function is deactivated by pressing this button. The indicator lamp
in the button comes on.
Pressing this button again reactivates the function. The indicator lamp in
the button goes off.

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

Deactivation / Activation of the rear parking sensors

The function is deactivated or activated via the vehicle
confi guration menu.

The status of the function is stored when the ignition is switched off.

For more information on access to the parking sensors menu,
refer to the section covering the confi guration of vehicle systems.



OPERATING FAULT

In the event of a malfunction of the system, when reverse gear
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 qualifi ed workshop.

In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the sensors are not
covered with mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is engaged, an
audible signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.)
may trigger the audible signals of the parking sensor system.



The function will be deactivated automatically if a trailer is being
towed or a bicycle carrier is fi tted (vehicle fi tted with a towbar or
bicycle carrier recommended by PEUGEOT).

Cooling

Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependent
on the engine speed.


)
To lower the engine speed, reduce your speed.
The maximum towing load on a long slope depends on the gradient and
the ambient temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature.


Braking

Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.


Tyres



)
Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer,
observing the recommended pressures.



Lighting



)
Check the electrical signalling on the trailer.

)
If the warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come
on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as
possible.
The rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically if a
genuine PEUGEOT towbar is used.


When not towing a trailer, remove the quickly-detachable tow ball
before driving, so as to avoid masking the central rear lamp.
