In bad weather and in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered by
road dirt, ice or snow.
In the event of a fault, have the system
checked by a P
e
uge
O
T dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the system is deactivated during a
manoeuvre, the drive should reactivate
it manually to repeat the measurement. If the lateral distance between your vehicle
and the space is too great, the system may
not be able to measure the space.
Anything projecting beyond the envelope
of the vehicle (long or wide load) is not
taken into account by the Park Assist
system during a manoeuvre.
Deactivation
A message is displayed in the screen.
The driver then takes back control of the
vehicle's steering.
The system is deactivated automatically:
-
o
n switching off the ignition,
-

i

-

i

f no manoeuvre is started within 5 minutes
of selection of the type of manoeuvre,
-

a

is triggered,
-

i

f the speed of the vehicle exceeds the
stated limit,
-

w

hen the driver interrupts movement of the
steering wheel,
-

i

f the driver presses the Park Assist
control,
-

i

f correct positioning of the vehicle is not
possible (too many manoeuvres needed to
insert or extract the vehicle),
-

i

f the driver's door is open,
-

i

f one of the front wheels encounters an
obstacle.
Switching off
The system is switched off automatically:
- w hen towing a trailer,
-

i
f the driver's door is opened,
-

i
f the speed of the vehicle is above 42 mph
(70 km/h).
To switch the system of for a prolonged period,

workshop.
Operating faults
In the event of a fault with the system,
this warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message appears in the
screen, accompanied by an audible signal (short beep).
The indicator lamp in the control flashes for a few
seconds. If the problem occurs while using the system,
the indicator lamp goes off.
In the event of a fault with
the power steering, these
warning lamps come on in
the instrument panel.

Daytime running lamps
Daytime lighting, compulsory in certain
countries, which comes on automatically when
the engine is started making the vehicle more
visible to other users.
LED lamps
They come on when the engine is started.
Depending on the country of sale, they are
used for:
-
d
aytime running lamps* in day mode and
sidelamps in night mode (they are brighter
when daytime running lamps),
or
-

headlamps with the sidelamps and number
plate lamps; this function cannot be
deactivated.
- f or other countries where it is provided, b
y the use of dedicated lamps (bulbs or

deactivated via the vehicle configuration
menu.
The lighting control stalk must be placed in the
"0"


or "AUTO" (day mode) position.
Deactivation of the daytime running lamps is
effective after operation of the lighting control
stalk or after the next engine start; activation is
effective immediately.
The instruments and controls (instrument
panel, multifunction screen, air conditioning
control panel, ...) are not illuminated, except
in night mode with manual or automatic
illumination of headlamps.

electronic stability control (eS C)
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
These systems improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contribute towards improved control in
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution system
manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure more
quickly and therefore reduce the stopping
distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a
reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an
increase in the effectiveness of the braking.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
This system (also known as Traction Control)
optimises traction in order to avoid wheel
slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that required by the
driver, this system monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws
of physics.

Dynamic stability control (DSC)
and anti-slip regulation (ASR)
Activation
These systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
As soon as they detect a problem of grip or
trajectory, these systems act on the operation if
the engine and brakes.This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument panel.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate
the DSC system, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip. The DSC system offers exceptional
safety in normal driving, but this should
not encourage the driver to take extra
risks or drive at high speed.
The correct operation of the system
depends on observation of the
manufacturer's recommendations
regarding the wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components, the electronic
components and the P
e

uge

T
assembly and operation procedures.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a Pe ugeO T dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the screen, this
indicates a fault with the system.
Contact a P
e

uge
O
T dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
Reactivation
The system is reactivated automatically each
time the ignition is switched back on or from
30 mph (50 km/h), except for 1.6 litre THP 155
and THP 200 petrol engines. But it is recommended that the system be
reactivated as soon as possible.

Battery
The presence of this label indicates
the use of a 12 V lead-acid battery with
special technology and specification, for
which the involvement of a P
e
uge
O
T
dealer or qualified workshop is required
when replacing or disconnecting the
battery.
Failure to observe this recommendation
may cause premature wear of the
battery.
After refitting the battery, the Stop &
Start system will only be active after
several hours depending on the climatic
conditions and the state of charge of
the battery (up to about 8 hours). F

Starting using another
battery
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be started using a slave battery
(external or on another vehicle) and jump lead
cables.F

minutes.
Do not try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when
the engine is running. First check that the slave battery has a
nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity
at least equal to that of the discharged
battery.
