observe the driving regulations at all 
times and remain vigilant whatever the 
traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and 
keep your hands on the wheel so that 
you are ready to react at any time to 
any eventuality

n a long journey, a break every 
two
  hours is strongly recommended.
In difficult weather, drive smoothly, 
anticipate the need to brake and 
increase the distance from other 
vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving 
on flooded roads, as this could cause 
serious damage to the engine or 
gearbox, as well as to the electrical 
systems of your vehicle. If you are obliged to drive through 
water:
-
 
check that the depth of water does 
not exceed 15 cm, taking account 
of waves that might be generated 
by other users,
-
  
deactivate the Stop & Start system,
-
  
drive as slowly as possible without 
stallin
g. In all cases, do not 
exceed   6 mph (10 km/h),
-  do not stop and do not switch of f 
the engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon 
as circumstances allow, make several 
light brake applications to dry the brake 
discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, 
contact a P
eugeo T dealer or a 
qualified workshop. Never drive with the parking brake 
applied - Risk of overheating and 
damage to the braking system!
Do not park or run the engine when 
stationary in areas where inflammable 
substances and materials (dry grass, 
dead leaves...) might come into contact 
with the hot exhaust system - Risk of 
fire!
Never leave a vehicle 
unsupervised with the engine 
running. If you have to leave 
your vehicle with the engine running, 
apply the parking brake and put the 
gearbox into neutral or position N or P, 
depending on the type of gearbox.

ith the engine off, the 
audio system switches off 
after a few minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the audio system operating time 
depends on the state of charge of the battery.
The switch-off is normal: the audio equipment switches to economy 
mode and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's 
battery. Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery 
charge.
The message "the audio 
system is overheated" 
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature 
is too high, the audio system switches to an automatic thermal 
protection mode leading to a reduction in volume or CD play 
stopping. Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to 
allow the system to cool.

here is a difference in 
sound quality between the 
different audio sources 
(radio, CD...). For optimum sound quality, the audio settings (Volume, Bass, 
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) can be adapted to the different sound 
sources, which may result in audible differences when changing 
source (radio, CD...). Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass, 
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to 
the sources listened to. It is advisable to set 
the audio functions (Bass, Treble, Front-Rear 
Balance, Left-Right Balance) to the middle 
position, select the musical ambience "None" 
and set the loudness correction to the "Active" 
position in CD mode or to the "Inactive" position 
in radio mode.
