Under-inflation detection
This system automatically checks the pressures of
the tyres when driving and alerts you in the event of
under-inflation.
Exterior
Temporary puncture repair kit
This kit is a complete system consisting of a compressor and
a sealant cartridge, to allow the temporary repair of a tyre.
Rear parking sensors
This system provides a warning when manoeuvring
backwards by detecting obstacles located behind
the


vehicle.

Never select position N while the
vehicle is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless the
vehicle is completely stationary.
Automatic operation
Reverse
When selecting reverse R with the ignition on,
the rear parking sensors are activated.
For more information, refer to the "Rear parking
sensors" section.
Creep function (moving without
using the accelerator)
This function provides great flexibility in
manoeuvring the vehicle at low speed (when
parking, in traffic jams, …).
With the engine at idle, parking brake released
and position D, M or R selected, the vehicle
moves as soon as you take your foot off
the brake pedal (even without pressing the
accelerator).
F

Sel

ect position D for automatic
changing
of the six gears.
The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive
mode, without any intervention on the part
of the driver. It continuously selects the most
suitable gear according to the style of driving,
the profile of the road and the load in the
vehicle.
For maximum acceleration without touching
the selector, press the accelerator pedal down
fully (kick down). The gearbox changes down
automatically or maintains the gear selected
until the maximum engine speed is reached.
On braking, the gearbox changes down
automatically to provide efficient engine
braking.
As a safety measure, if you release the
accelerator sharply, the gearbox will not
change up. These two special programmes complete
the automatic operation, for use in particular
circumstances.
Sport and snow programmes
"S" sport programme
F Press the "
S" button, once the engine has
started.
The gearbox automatically allows a more
dynamic driving style.
T snow programme
F Press the " T" button, once the engine has
started.
The gearbox adapts itself to driving on slippery
roads.
This programme helps moving off and improves
traction when grip is poor.
At any time, press the button selected
again to leave the programme engaged
and return to auto-adaptative mode.S appears in the instrument panel.
T appears in the instrument panel.

This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
which comes within the field of detection of
sensors located in the bumper.
Certain types of obstacle (stake, roadworks
cone, etc.) detected initially will no longer be
detected at the end of the manoeuvre due to
the presence of blind spots.
Rear parking sensors
This function cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of the need
for vigilance on the part of the driver.The system is switched on by engaging reverse
gear. This is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
which increases as the vehicle approaches
the


obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left)
indicates the side on which the obstacle is located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
Visual assistance
This supplements the audible signal by
displaying bars in the screen which move
progressively nearer to the vehicle.
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed in the screen.

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.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 qualified
workshop.
Operating fault
The function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed
or a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle
fitted with a towbar or bicycle carrier
recommended by PEUGEOT).
Deactivation / Activation of
the rear parking sensors
The function is deactivated or
activated via the vehicle configuration
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 "Personalisation
-
Configuration" part of the "Instruments and
controls" section.

Driving advice
Distribution of loads
F Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. Above
1
000 metres, the maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10
% for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.
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.
F

I
f the warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
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.
Refer to the "Technical data" section for details
of the weights and towed loads which apply to
your vehicle.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
PEUGEOT towbar is used.
