Operating fault
Under-inflation alert
 The loss of pressure detected 
does not always lead to visible 
deformation of the tyre. Do not rely 
on just a visual check.The alert is given by the fixed 
illumination of this warning lamp, 
accompanied by an audible signal, 
and depending on equipment, the 
display of a message.The flashing and then 
fixed illumination of the

tyre pressures at the time, drive 
carefully at reduced speed. This alert is also displayed when 
one or more wheels is not fitted 
with a sensor (for example, a 
space-saver or steel spare wheel).
Go to a PEUGEOT
 dealer or a 
qualified workshop
  to have the system 
checked or, following the repair of a 
puncture, to have the original wheel,

Good practice
For maximum cooling or heating of the 
passenger compartment, it is possible 
to exceed the value 15 by turning until 
LO is displayed or the value 27 by 
turning until HI is displayed.
On entering the vehicle, the inside 
temperature may be much colder (or 
warmer) than is comfortable. There is 
no advantage in changing the value 
displayed in order to quickly reach the 
level of comfort required. The system 
will use its maximum performance to 
reach the comfort value set.

The value indicated in the screen 
corresponds to a level of comfort and 
not a temperature in degrees Celsius 
or Fahrenheit.
Turn this control to the left 
or to the right to decrease or 
increase the value. A setting 
around the value 21 provides 
optimum comfort. However, 
depending on your requirements, a 
setting between 18 and 24 is usual.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor 
located on the dashboard.
Press this button, the AUTO 
symbol is displayed.
The system controls the 
distribution, the flow and the 
intake of air to guarantee 
comfort and a sufficient circulation 
of air in the passenger compartment 
according to the comfort value set. No 
further action on your part is required. Air flow will increase gradually when 
the engine is cold, to prevent excessive 
distribution of cold air.
For your comfort, the settings are 
stored when the ignition is switched off 
and are reinstated the next time the 
vehicle is started.
The automatic function will no longer 
be maintained if you change a setting 
manually (AUTO is cleared).

The audible (front and rear) and visual 
(rear) parking sensor system consists 
of proximity sensors, installed in the 
rear bumper.
The sensors detect any obstacle which 
enters its field of operation: person, 
vehicle, tree, fence, behind the vehicle 
during the manoeuvre.
Certain objects detected at the 
beginning of the manoeuvre will no 
longer be detected at the end of the 
manoeuvre due to the blind spots 
between and below the sensors.
Examples: stake, roadworks cone or 
pavement post.

SENSORS
Display in the screen
An audible signal confirms the 
activation of the system by engaging 
reverse gear.
The proximity information is indicated 
by an audible signal which becomes 
more rapid as the vehicle approaches 
the obstacle.
When the distance between the rear 
of the vehicle and the obstacle is less 
than approximately thirty centimetres, 
the audible signal becomes 
continuous.

the vehicle stops.
The parking sensor system 
cannot, in any circumstances, 
take the place of the vigilance and 
responsibility of the driver.
Engage forward gear
In addition to the rear parking sensors, 
the front parking sensors are triggered 
when an obstacle is detected in front of 
the vehicle and the speed of the vehicle 
remains below 6 mph (10 km/h).
The tone from the speaker (front 
or rear) allows an obstacle to be 
identified as either in front of or 
behind the vehicle.
Stop the assistance
Change to neutral. You are advised to deactivate 
the system if your vehicle is fitted 
with a rear ladder or if you are 
transporting a load which exceeds 
the length of the vehicle.

REVERSING CAMERA
The reversing camera is activated 
automatically when reverse gear is 
engaged.
The image is displayed in the touch 
screen.
The reversing camera function may be 
completed with parking sensors.The reversing camera cannot in 
any circumstances be a substitute 
for vigilance on the part of the 
driver. High pressure jet washing
When washing your vehicle, do 
not direct the lance within 30 cm of 
the camera lens.
The superimposed representation of 
guide lines helps with the manoeuvre.
They are represented by lines marked 
"on the ground" and do not allow the 
position of the vehicle to be determined 
relative to tall obstacles (for example: 
other vehicles, ...).
Some deformation of the image is 
normal. The blue lines represent the general 
direction of the vehicle (the difference 
corresponds to the width of your 
vehicle without the mirrors).
The red lines represent a distance of 
about 30 cm beyond the edge of your 
vehicle's rear bumper.
The green lines represent distances of 
about 1 and 2 metres beyond the edge 
of your vehicle's rear bumper.
The turquoise blue curves represent 
the maximum turning circle.
Opening the tailgate causes the 
display to disappear.
Clean the reversing camera regularly 
using a soft, dry cloth.

ACTIVE CITY BRAKE
Active City Brake is a driving 
assistance system that aims to avoid 
a frontal collision or reduce the speed 
of an impact if the driver does not 
react sufficiently (inadequate brake 
application).
This system is designed to 
improve driving safety.
It remains the driver's 
responsibility to continuously 
monitor the state of the traffic and 
to assess the distances and relative 
speeds of other vehicles.
Active City Brake can in no 
circumstances replace the need for 
vigilance on the part of the driver. Never look at the laser sensor 
through an optical instrument 
(magnifying glass, microscope...) 
at a distance of less than 
10
  centimetres: risk of eye injury.Principle
Using a laser sensor located at the top 
of the windscreen, this system detects 
a vehicle running in the same direction 
or stationary ahead of your vehicle.
When necessary, the vehicle's braking 
system is operated automatically 
to avoid a collision with the vehicle 
ahead.Automatic braking occurs later 
than if done by the driver, so as 
to intervene only when there is a 
high risk of collision.
Conditions for activation
Active City Brake only operates if the 
following conditions are met:
● 
ignition on,
●
 
the vehicle is in a forward gear
 ,
●
 
speed is between about 3 and 
18
  mph (5 and 30 km/h),
●
 
the braking assistance systems 
(ABS, EBFD, emergency braking 
assistance) are not faulty
,
●
 
the trajectory control systems 
(ASR, DSC) are not deactivated or 
faulty
,
●
 
the vehicle is not in a tight corner
 ,
●
 
the system has not been triggered 
during the previous 10 seconds.
