Once these adjustments have been made, ensure that from your driving position you can see the "head-up" instrument panel clearly, over the reduced diameter steering wheel.
Before moving the seat backwards, ensure that there is nothing that might prevent the full travel of the seat, so as to avoid the risk of of jamming the seat caused by the presence of objects on the floor behind the seat or rear passengers. If the seat jams, stop the movement immediately.

230 V / 50 Hz power socket
A 230 V / 50 Hz socket (maximum power: 120 W) is fitted in the rear storage box. This socket works with the engine running, as well as in STOP mode with Stop & Start.  Open the central storage box,  Check that the warning lamp is on green,  Connect your multimedia or other electrical device (telephone charger, laptop computer, CD-DVD player, baby food warmer...).
In the event of a fault with the socket, the green warning lamp flashes. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Connect only one device at a time to the socket (no extension or multi-way connector). Connect only devices with class II insulation (shown on the device). Do not use a device with a metal case. As a safety measure, when electrical consumption is high and when required
by the vehicle's electrical system (particular weather conditions, electrical overload...), the current supply to the socket will be cut off; the green warning lamp goes off.
The different "ports and sockets" can be either not available, an option or standard, depending on the trim level of the vehicle.

Gear shift indicator
Depending on the driving situation and your vehicle's equipment, the system may advise you to skip one (or more) gear(s). You can follow this instruction without engaging the intermediate gears. The gear engagement recommendations must not be considered compulsory. In fact, the configuration of the road, the amount of traffic and safety remain determining factors when choosing the best gear. Therefore, the driver remains responsible for deciding whether or not to follow the advice given by the system. This function cannot be deactivated.
- You are in third gear.
Example:
- You press the accelerator pedal.
- The system may suggest that you engage a higher gear.
The information appears in the instrument panel in the form of an arrow. On vehicles with manual gearbox, the arrow can be accompanied by the recommended gear.

Blind spot sensors
Operation
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the side in question: - immediately, when being overtaken, - after a delay of about one second, when overtaking a vehicle slowly.
This driving assistance system warns the driver of the presence of another vehicle in the blind spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from the driver's field of vision), as soon as this presents a potential danger.
This indicator lamp comes on in the instrument panel. Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers monitor the blind spots.
This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to asses the distances and relative speeds of other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane. The blind spot sensor system can never replace the vigilance and responsibility of the driver.
Activation of the system is done in the " Driving assistance " menu of the touch screen.
 Press this button to activate the function; the associated indicator lamp comes on.
