Park Assist
The system detects a parking space and then 
provides assistance with the parallel parking 
manoeuvres.
It controls the steering and provides visual and 
audible information to the driver.
The driver manages the accelerator, brakes, 
gears and the clutch in the case of a manual 
gearbox.
The driver can take control at any time by 
gripping the steering wheel.The Park Assist system cannot in any 
circumstances replace the need for 
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of their 
vehicle ensuring that the space remains 
clear during the manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors may 
not detect small obstacles located in their 
blind spots.
During manoeuvring phases, the steering 
wheel per forms rapid turns: do not hold 
the steering wheel, do not put your hands 
between the spokes of the steering wheel.
Watch out for any object that could block 
the manoeuvre (loose clothing, scar ves, 
ties, etc.) – Risk of injury! For entry into a parallel parking space the 
system does not detect spaces which are 
clearly much smaller or larger than the 
size of the vehicle.
The "Parking sensors" function activates 
automatically during the manoeuvres, it is 
possible that a warning lamp illuminates 
on the screen, accompanied by an audible 
signal, without affecting the parking.
Changing tyre sizes (out-size tyres, winter 
tyres, etc.) can inter fere with the correct 
operation of the parking assistance 
system.
When the Park Assist is active, it prevents 
the Stop & Start going into STOP mode. 
In STOP mode, activating Park Assist 
restarts the engine.

As a safety measure and to avoid 
damaging the roof, it is essential to use 
the transverse bars approved for your 
vehicle.
Obser ve the instructions on fitting and use 
contained in the guide supplied with the 
roof bars.
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care 
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as 
close as possible to the roof.
Lash the load securely.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more 
susceptible to the effects of side winds 
and the stability of the vehicle may be 
affected.
On a long journey, check the security of 
the load at every stop.
Remove the roof bars once they are no 
longer needed.Bonnet 
The location of the interior bonnet release 
lever prevents opening of the bonnet when 
the left-hand front door is shut.
When the engine is hot, handle the 
exterior safety catch and the stay with 
care (risk of burns), using the protected 
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to 
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy 
conditions.The cooling fan may star t after 
switching off the engine: take care 
with articles and clothing that might be 
caught by the fan blades.
Because of the presence of electrical 
equipment under the bonnet, it is 
recommended that exposure to water 
(rain, washing, etc.) be limited.Opening

Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with 
the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them 
up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the 
corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.The fluid must comply with the 
manufacturer's recommendations and with 
the vehicle's engine.
Take care when working under the bonnet, 
as certain areas of the engine may be 
extremely hot (risk of burns) and the 
cooling fan could start at any time (even 
with the ignition off).
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or 
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health 
or indeed very corrosive. Do not discard used oil or fluids into 
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer 
or a qualified workshop and dispose 
of it in the containers reser ved for this 
purpose.
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when 
the ignition is switched on using the 
oil level indicator in the instrument 
panel for vehicles equipped with an 
electric gauge, or using the dipstick.
To ensure that the reading is correct, your 
vehicle must be parked on a level sur face 
with the engine stopped for more than 
30
 
minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between 
two ser vices (or oil changes). PEUGEOT 
recommends that you check the level, and top 
up if necessary, every 3,000
  miles (5,000   km).
Checking using the dipstick
