2015 PEUGEOT 5008 sensor

185
Visual and audible front and rear parking sensors
System consisting of four proximity sensors,
installed in the front and/or rear bumper.
It detects any obstacle (person, vehicle, tree,
barrier...) located behind the vehicle, however,
it will not be able to detect obstacles located
immediately below the bumper.The parking sensors are switched on
:
- b y engaging reverse gear,
-

a
t a speed below 6 mph (10 km/h) in
forward gear.
This is accompanied by an audible signal
and display of the vehicle in the multifunction
screen. The proximity information is indicated by:
-
a n audible signal which becomes more
rapid as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle,
-

a
n image in the multifunction screen, with
blocks which move closer to the vehicle.
The obstacle is located in relation to the
emission of the audible signal by the speakers;
front or rear and right or left.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle is less than approximately thirty
centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous and/or the "Danger" symbol
appears, depending on the version of
multifunction screen.
An object, such as a stake, a roadworks
cone or any other similar object may be
detected at the start of the manoeuvre
but may no longer be detected when the
vehicle moves nearer to it.

The parking sensors are switched off:
- w hen you come out of reverse gear,
-

w
hen the speed is higher than 6 mph
(10
km/h) in for ward gear,
-

w
hen the vehicle has been stationary for
more than three seconds in forward gear.
Deactivation
Operating fault Reactivation
F Press button A, the warning lamp comes
on, the system is fully deactivated. If an operating fault occurs, this
warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the multifunction screen,
accompanied by an audible signal (short beep),
when reverse gear is engaged.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
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.
When the vehicle is being driven at
a speed below approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h), certain sources of noise
(motorcycles, lorries, pneumatic
drills,
...) may trigger the parking sensor
audible signals.
The parking sensor system cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The system will be deactivated
automatically when a trailer is being
towed or when a bicycle carrier is fitted
(vehicle fitted with a towbar or bicycle
carrier recommended by PEUGEOT).F

P
ress button A again, the warning lamp
switches off, the system is reactivated.

Parking space sensors
After measuring the parking space available
between two vehicles or obstacles, this system
gives you information on:
-
t
he possibility of fitting into a free space,
depending on the dimensions of your
vehicle and the distances needed for
manoeuvring,
-

t
he level of difficulty of the manoeuvre to
be performed.
The system does not measure spaces which
are clearly much smaller or larger than the size
of the vehicle.Displays in the instrument panel
The parking space sensor function
warning lamp can have three
different states:
-

o

ff: the function is not selected,
-

o

n fixed: the function is selected but the
conditions for measurement are not yet met
(direction indicator not operating, speed
too high) or the measurement phase has
ended,
-

f

lashing: measurement is in progress or
the message is being displayed. You can activate the "parking space sensor"
function by pressing button A
. The fixed
illumination of the warning lamp indicates that
the function is selected.

Operation
The function displays the following types of message:
Parking possibleParking difficult
Parking not advised The function deactivates itself automatically:
- w
hen you engage reverse gear,
- w hen you switch off the ignition,
-

f
ive minutes after activation of the function
or after the last measurement operation,
-

i
f the vehicle speed exceeds the threshold
of 45 mph (approximately 70 km/h) for
one


minute.
If the lateral distance between your
vehicle and the parking space is too
great, the system may not operate.
-

T
he function remains available
after each measurement and so
can measure a number of places
su c c e s s i ve l y.
-

I
n bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered by
dirt, or by ice or snow.
-

T
he parking space sensor
function deactivates the front
parking sensors during the space
measuring phase when you are in
forward gear.
If there is a malfunction, have the
system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
You have identified a parking space:

uring the measuring, go for ward the
length of the space, at a speed less than
12

mph (approximately 20 km/h),
to prepare for your manoeuvre.
T

he system then measures the size of the
space.
F

T

he system informs you of the level of
difficulty of the manoeuvre via a message
in the multifunction screen accompanied by
an audible signal.

Following a puncture
The punctured wheel cannot be stowed
under the vehicle. It must be stowed
in the boot. Use a cover to protect the
inside of the boot.
When driving with the "space-saver"
type spare wheel fitted, do not exceed
50 mph (80 km/h).
Have the tightening of the bolts and the
pressure of the spare wheel checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired and
replace it on the vehicle as soon as
possible.
Tyre under-inflation detection
The space-saver type or steel spare
wheel does not have a sensor.
The punctured wheel must be repaired
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Snow chains must only be fitted to the
front wheels. Further, they must never
be fitted to a "space-saver" spare
wheel.
Before fitting the snow chains,
interchange the "space-saver" spare
wheel fitted at the front with the wheel
at the rear on the same side.

Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.
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.
F

T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towed load on a long incline
depends on the gradient and the ambient
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a long
mountain type of descent, the use of engine
braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
PEUGEOT towbar is used.
