2015 PEUGEOT 4C instrument panel

If several obstacles are detected by the sensors, only the
nearest one is considered.
Indications On Display — If Equipped
When the sensors are activated, the screen appears on the
display.Obstacle presence and distance information is therefore
provided both by the acoustic signal and the instrument
panel display.
The system indicates a detected obstacle by displaying an
arc in one or more positions according to the distance of
the obstacle and its position in relation to the car.
If an obstacle is detected in the rear central area, the
display shows all the arcs in the rear central area, up to
the one that corresponds to the position of the obstacle
itself.
The signal is similar for obstacles in the rear left or right
area.
The arc that corresponds to the position of the obstacle
will flash.
The color on the display depends on the distance from
and position of the obstacle.
Parking Sensors Screen
98 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

The car is close to the obstacle when the display shows a
single constant arc and emits a continuous sound.
If there are several obstacles, the closest one is indicated.
Fault Indication
Parking sensor failures, if any, will be indicated when
reverse is engaged by the switching on of the
warn-
ing light on the instrument panel together with the
message on the display.
General Warnings
When parking, take the utmost care over obstacles that
may be above or under the sensor.
Under certain circumstances, objects close to the vehicle
are not detected by the system and could therefore cause
damage to the car or be damaged themselves.Some conditions may influence the performance of the
parking sensors:
•The presence of ice, snow, mud or multiple layers of
paint on the sensor surface may cause reduced sensi-
tivity of the sensor itself and therefore reduce the
system performance.
•Mechanical interference (e.g washing the car, rain,
strong wind, hail) may cause the sensor to detect a
non-existent obstacle (“echo interference”).
•The presence of ultrasonic systems (e.g. pneumatic
brake systems of trucks or pneumatic drills) near the
car could alter the signals sent by the sensor.
•The variation in sensor position, caused by variation in
ride (due to suspension component wear), changing
tires, overloaded car, or tuning that lowers the car, for
example, may affect parking sensor system perfor-
mance.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DESCRIPTIONS
1. Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light — If Equipped
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recommended
by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle
has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those
tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been
equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when
one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illumi-
nates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Drivingon a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect
the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper
tire maintenance, and it is the driver ’s responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has
not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS
low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not
operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the
system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subse-
quent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the sys-
tem may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure

as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation of replacement or
alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the
TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle, to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS
to continue to function properly.
WARNING!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original
equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures and
warning have been established for the tire size
equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system opera-
tion or sensor damage may result when using re-
placement equipment that is not of the same size,
type, and/or style. Aftermarket wheels can cause

WARNING!(Continued)
sensor damage. Do not use tire sealant from a can or
balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a
TPMS, as damage to the sensors may result.
2. Turn Signal Indicators
The arrows will flash in unison with the exte-
rior turn signal, when using the turn signal
lever.
3. Electronic Stability Control (ESC) OFF Indicator
Light
This light indicates the Electronic Stability Con-
trol (ESC) is off.

4. Electronic Speed Control Set Indicator Light — If
Equipped
This light will turn on when the electronic
speed control is set.
5. Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tempera-
ture. Any reading within the normal range indicates that
the engine cooling system is operating satisfactorily.
The digital gauge will likely indicate a higher tempera-
ture when driving in hot weather, or up mountain
grades. It should not be allowed to exceed the upper
limits of the normal operating range.NOTE:Driving with a hot engine cooling system could
damage your vehicle. The digital warning light may
switch on (together with a message on the display) to
indicate that the coolant temperature is too high; in this
case, stop the engine and contact a dedicated authorized
dealership.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or
others could be badly burned by steam or boiling
coolant. You may want to call an authorized dealer
for service if your vehicle overheats. If you decide to
look under the hood yourself, see “Maintaining Your
Vehicle.” Follow the warnings under the Cooling
System Pressure Cap paragraph.
