Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with 
parking. It detects a parking space then 
operates the steering to park in the space.
It operates the steering while the driver 
manages the accelerator, brakes, gears and 
clutch (manual gearbox). During phases of 
entry into and exit from a parking space, the 
system provides visual and audible information 
to the driver in order to make the manoeuvres 
safe. It may be necessary to move for wards 
and backwards more than once.During a manoeuvre, the steering 
wheel turns quickly: do not hold the 
steering wheel, do not place your 
hands between the spokes of the 
steering wheel and take care with 
loose and bulky clothing (scarves, ties, 
handbags...) - Risk of injury!
When Park Assist is activated, it 
prevents a change to STOP mode of 
Stop & Start. In STOP mode, activation 
of Park Assist restarts the engine.
This manoeuvring assistance 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 throughout the manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors may 
not detect small obstacles located in 
their blind spots.
The driver can take control at any time by 
gripping the steering wheel. The Park Assist system provides assistance for 
the following manoeuvres:
A.
 E
ntry into a parallel parking space
B.
 E
xit from a parallel parking spaceC.
 B

The Park Assist system cannot work 
with the engine off.

Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when braking.
Advice on installation
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face 
on the side of the road.
F
 
A
 pply the parking brake and position any 
wheel chocks to prevent movement of your 
vehicle.
F
 
F
 it the chains following the instructions 
provided by the manufacturer.
F
 
M
 ove off gently and drive for a few 
moments, without exceeding 30 mph 
(50
 
km/h).
F
 
S
 top your vehicle and check that the snow 
chains are correctly tightened.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the 
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
For more information on snow chains, contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
It is strongly recommended that before 
you leave, you practise fitting the snow 
chains on a level and dry sur face.
The snow chains must be fitted only 
to the front wheels. They must never 
be fitted to "space-saver" type spare 
wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force 
in your country on the use of snow 
chains and the maximum running speed 
authorised.Avoid driving with snow chains on roads 
that have been cleared of snow, to 
avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and 
the road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted 
with alloy wheels, check that no part of 
the chain or its fixings is in contact with 
the wheel rim.

topping-up.
Engine oil change
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule 
for details of the interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine 
and emission control system, never use 
additives in the engine oil.
Brake fluid level
Changing the fluid
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule 
for details of the interval for this operation.
Fluid specification
The brake fluid must conform to the 
manufacturer's recommendations. The brake fluid level should be close 
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check 
the brake pad wear.

Electric parking  
brake
This system does not require any 
routine servicing. However, in 
the event of a problem, have the 
system checked by a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Brake pads

of driving, particularly in the case 
of vehicles used in town, over short 
distances. It may be necessary to

For information on checking brake 
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.For more information on the Electric parking 
brake

Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any 
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service 
schedule for the checking interval 
for this component.
Only use products recommended by 
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent 
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of 
units as important as those in the 
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and 
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, 
or in wintry conditions, ice can form 
on the brake discs and pads: braking 
efficiency may be reduced. Make light 
brake applications to dry and defrost 
the brakes.
have the condition of the brakes checked, even 
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in 
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake 
pads are worn.
