Travelling abroad
If planning to use your vehicle in a country
that drives on the other side of the road,
the headlamp dipped beams must be
adjusted to avoid dazzling oncoming
drivers. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

urn the ring rear wards to switch off the
foglamps, the sidelamps will then switch off. In good or rainy weather, both day and
night, using the front foglamps and the
rear foglamp is prohibited. In these
situations, the power of their beams may
dazzle other drivers. They should only be
used in fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, it is your
responsibility to switch on the foglamps
and dipped beam headlamps manually as
the sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light.
Do not forget to turn off the front foglamps
and the rear foglamp as soon as they are
no longer necessary.
Switching off of the lighting when the
ignition is switched off
On switching off the ignition, all of the
lighting turns off immediately, except for
dipped beam if automatic guide-me-home
lighting is activated.
Switching on the lighting after the
ignition is switched off
To reactivate the lighting control, set the
ring to 0 – lamps off, then to the desired
position.
When the driver's door is opened, a
temporary audible signal warns you that
the vehicle's lighting is on.
The lamps, with the exception of the
sidelamps, switch off automatically after
a maximum duration of 30
minutes to
prevent discharging of the battery.

Three flashes
Move the stalk briefly upwards or downwards,
without going beyond the point of resistance;
the corresponding direction indicators will flash
three times.This function can be used at any speed,
but it is particularly useful for changing
lane on fast roads.
Automatic illumination of
headlampsIf you forget to cancel the direction
indicators for more than 20 seconds, the
volume of the audible signal will increase if
the speed is above 40
mph (60 km/h).When a low level of ambient light is detected
by a sunshine sensor, the number plate lamps,
sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are
switched on automatically, without any action
on the part of the driver. They can also come
on if rain is detected, at the same time as
automatic operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a
sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers
are switched off, the lamps are switched off
automatically.
Switching on
F Turn the ring to the AUTO
position.
Activation of the function is accompanied by
a message in the screen.
Switching off
F Turn the ring to another position. Deactivation of the function is accompanied
by a message in the screen.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may
detect sufficient light. In this case, the
lighting will not come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, linked
with the rain sensor and located in the
centre of the windscreen behind the rear
view mirror; the associated functions
would no longer be controlled.
Automatic guide-me-home
lighting
Association with automatic illumination of
headlamps provides the guide-me-home
lighting with the following additional options:
-

s
election of the lighting duration of 15, 30 or
60


seconds,
-

a
utomatic activation of guide-me-home
lighting when the automatic illumination of
headlamps is in operation.

Headlamp adjustment
To avoid causing a nuisance to other road
users, the height of the headlamp beams
should be adjusted according to the load in the
vehicle.
0.1 or 2 people in the front seats.
-. Intermediate setting.
1. 5 people.
-. 5 people + maximum authorised load.
2. Driver + maximum authorised load.
The initial setting is position 0 .
Daytime running lamps/
Sidelamps
In daytime running lamps, the diodes are
b r i g h t e r.
The front and rear lamps light up automatically
when the engine starts.
They provide the following functions:
-

D
aytime running lamps (lighting control
stalk at position " 0" or " AUTO " with
adequate light level).
-

S
idelamps (lighting control stalk in "
AUTO"
position with low light levels or "Sidelamps
only" or "dipped/main beam headlamps").
Cornering lighting
With dipped or main beams, this system
makes use of the beam from a front foglamp
to illuminate the inside of a bend, when the
vehicle speed is below 25


mph (approximately
40
km/h) (urban driving, winding road,
intersections, parking manoeuvres, etc.).

Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices
that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions.
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and
change up without waiting. During acceleration
change up early.
With an automatic or electronic gearbox,
give preference to automatic mode and avoid
pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or
suddenly.
The gear shift indicator invites you to engage
the most suitable gear: as soon as the
indication is displayed in the instrument panel,
follow it straight away.
For vehicles fitted with an electronic or
automatic gearbox, this indicator appears only
in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use
engine braking rather than the brake pedal,
and press the accelerator progressively. These
practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions and also help
reduce the background traffic noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of
the system at speeds above 25
mph (40 km/h)
when the traffic is flowing well.
Control the use of your electrical
equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger
compartment is too warm, ventilate it by
opening the windows and air vents before using
the air conditioning.
Above 30
mph (50 km/h), close the windows
and leave the air vents open.
Consider using equipment that can help keep
the temperature in the passenger compartment
down (sunroof and window blinds, etc.).
Unless it has automatic regulation, switch off
the air conditioning as soon as the desired
temperature has been reached.
Switch off the demisting and defrosting
controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible. Switch off the headlamps and front foglamps
when the ambient light level does not require
their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,
particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up
much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your
multimedia devices (film, music, video game
etc.), you will contribute towards limiting the
consumption of electrical energy, and so of
fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices before
leaving the vehicle.
Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the
heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as
close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,
bicycle carrier, trailer, etc.). Use a roof box in
preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and
refit your summer tyres.

Changing a bulb
The headlamps have polycarbonate
lenses with a protective coating:
F
d
o not clean them using a dr y or
abrasive cloth, nor with a detergent
or solvent product,
F

u
se a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product,
F

w
hen using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep the
lance directed towards the lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to
damage their protective coating and
seals.
Changing a bulb must only be done with
the ignition off and after the headlamp has
been switched off for several minutes –
Risk of serious burns!
F

D
o not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers, use a lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a new
bulb with the same type and specification. In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal sur face of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps is
normal; it disappears after the lamps have
been on for a few minutes.
