Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the
s ystem, this warning lamp flashes in
the instrument panel.
Have it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a
qualified workshop.
Maintenance
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid any risk of injury resulting from an
automatic change to START mode.
The Stop & Start system requires a
12 V
battery of specific technology and
specification.
All work on this type of battery must be
carried out only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a
qualified workshop.
For more information on the 12
V batter y,
refer to the corresponding section. Driving on flooded roads
Before driving in a
flooded area, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Driving advice ,
particularly on flooded roads, refer to the
corresponding section.

system.
Deactivation is confirmed by the
illumination of this indicator lamp in
the instrument panel.
If the system has been deactivated in STOP
mode, the engine restarts immediately.
Press this button again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed by
the indicator lamp going off in the instrument
panel.
The system reactivates automatically every
time the engine is started by the driver.
Speed Limit recognition
and recommendation
This system allows certain road signs detected
by the camera to be displayed on the touch
screen (especially the maximum authorised
speed).
Examples of signs recognised:
Specific speed limits, such as those for heavy
goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the touch
screen is updated as you pass a
speed limit
sign intended for cars (light vehicles).

standard, are damaged or distorted.
If an app on your smart phone is used
via Mirror Screen, the sign displayed by
the system may be temporarily hidden. It
will be redisplayed as soon as you pass
another sign.Speed limiter
System which prevents the
vehicle from exceeding the speed
programmed by the driver.
The limiter is switched on manually: this
can be done regardless of the vehicle speed.
However, if you are travelling at less than
18
mph (30 km/h), the programmed speed will
be set at 18
mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter is paused using the control.
The programmed speed can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator firmly
beyond the point of resistance.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal until the set limit
speed has been reached again.
The programmed speed is erased when
the ignition is switched off.
The limiter cannot, under any
circumstances, replace respect for speed
limits, nor the vigilance of the driver.
Steering mounted control
The controls for this system are grouped
together on this steering mounted control.
1.Activation/deactivation of the limiter: by
pressing on the end of the control.
2. Programming the speed/decreasing the
value: by pressing the control downwards.

Setting the thresholds for
triggering the alertDeactivation/reactivation
Press this button for more than 3 seconds.
T his warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the message
"PCS OFF" is displayed. Press this button again to reactivate the
system.
This indicator lamp lights up on the
instrument panel.
The alert thresholds determine how you want
to be alerted to the risk of an imminent collision
with the vehicle travelling in front of you.
You can choose from three thresholds:
A. "Distant", to be given an early alert
(cautious driving).
B. "Normal",
C. "Close", to be given a
later alert (sporty
driving).
Press this button in succession to
scroll through the thresholds:
The default setting is "Normal". The system is reactivated automatically at
every new start using the key or the "START/
STOP " button.
Operating limits
The system only detects vehicles
(c ar s,
trucks), stationary or moving in the same
direction of traffic.
It does not detect small vehicles (bicycles,
motorcycles), pedestrians or animals, nor
non-reflective stationary objects.
This system will not trigger or inter vene if the
driver:
-
p
resses hard on the accelerator (even if the
speed limiter is active),
-
o
r suddenly turns the steering wheel
(avoidance manoeuvre).
The ability to detect is reduced if:
-
y
ou are driving in an environment with sharp
turns and/or roads in poor condition,
-
c
arrying an excessively heavy load which
badly affects the horizontal attitude of your
vehicle,
-
y
our vehicle skids.
Driving
89
When weather conditions are difficult
(extremely heavy rain, snow, fog, hail,
etc.), braking distances increase, which
may reduce the system's ability to avoid
a
collision.
The driver must therefore remain
particularly cautious.
Never let snow build up on the bonnet
or any object above the bonnet nor at
the front of the roof: this could enter the
field of vision of the sensor and obstruct
detection.
Unwanted triggering

Operating faults
Sensor fault
Operation of the laser sensor may be
disrupted by accumulation of dirt, formation
of condensation on the windscreen or
the presence of a component causing an
obstruction (e.g. an open bonnet).
If this happens, you are alerted by
the flashing of this warning lamp in
the instrument panel. Do not stick or other wise attach any object
on the windscreen in front of the sensor.
System fault
If there is a system fault, you are
a lerted by the flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument
panel.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of an impact to the
windscreen at the sensor, deactivate the
system and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer
or a
qualified workshop to have your
windscreen replaced.
Do not attempt to remove, adjust or test
the sensor.
Only a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop is able to work on the system.
The system may detect a
risk of imminent
collision, particularly in the following conditions:
-
d
etection of an object close to the edge of
the road going into a
bend (safety rail, street
light, road sign),
-
d
etection of a
structure at the top or bottom
of a
sharp slope (advertising hoarding,
public lighting),
-
d
etection of reflective objects (central
reser vation, etc.) on the road,
-
d
etection of the top bar of a
bridge or
a
signal gantry,
-
p
assing a
vehicle travelling in the other
direction in a
corner, Use windscreen demisting and regularly clean
the area of the windscreen in front of the
sensor.

Lane departure warning
system
System that detects involuntary crossing of
longitudinal markings of roads, using a camera
that recognises the continuous or broken lines.
To increase your safety, the camera analyses
the image then triggers a
warning if the driver's
attention drops and the vehicle drifts over
a
lane marking (speed greater than 30 mph
(50
km/h)).
This system is particularly suited to motor ways
and dual carriageways.
The lane departure warning system
cannot under any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
You must obser ve the driving regulations
and take a
break every two hours.
When driving with snow chains or with the
spare wheel fitted, you must deactivate
the system.
Activation
Detection
You are alerted by an audible signal and the
lighting of a warning lamp in the instrument panel.
No warning is given while the direction indicator
is flashing and for approximately 20 seconds
after the direction indicator is switched off.

Reversing camera
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The reversing camera cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The visual feedback is only shown on the
touch screen, with an indication of the edge of
the rear bumper (red line 1 ) and the general
direction of the vehicle (blue lines 2 ).It is normal to have a
part of the number plate
showing in the bottom of the screen.
Never reverse while looking only at the
screen.
High-pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, do not direct
the lance at the lens of the camera from
a distance of less than 30 cm.
The field covered by the camera is limited:
objects very close to the bumper or below it are
not visible.
The wide angle lens of the camera distorts
the image on the screen: the distances seen
on the screen may be different from the real
distances. This distortion varies depending on
the load conditions of the vehicle and slope of
the road. Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a soft, dry cloth.

Fuel tank
The capacity of the tank is about 35 litres.
Low fuel level
When the fuel in the tank reaches
a low level, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible warning.
The message "LO FUEL" is displayed instead
of the range.
You have about 5
litres of fuel left.
In certain driving conditions and depending on
the engine in your vehicle, your range may be
less than 30
miles (50 km).
If you run out of fuel, the emission
control warning lamp may come on
in the instrument panel. It will go out
automatically after several engine starts.
Refuelling
Refuelling must be done with the engine and
ignition off (ignition switch to " LOCK" or
" OFF "). Opening the filler cap may create a
noise
caused by an inrush of air. This is entirely
normal and results from the sealing of the fuel
system.
To refuel in complete safety:
F
Y
ou must stop the engine and turn off
the ignition (switch to LOCK or OFF
mode) .
F
P
ull the control on the lower part of the
dashboard, driver's side, to unlock the fuel
filler flap.
F
O
pen the fuel filler flap.
A label inside the fuel flap reminds you of the
type of fuel to use.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres, in
order to be registered by the fuel gauge. F
U
nscrew the cap and place it on its support
(on the flap).
F
I
ntroduce the filler nozzle and push it in as
far as possible before starting to refuel (risk
of blowback).
F
K
eep it in this position during the whole
filling operation.
Once you have finished refuelling:
F
S
crew the cap back on again until you hear
a click. When you release the cap, it will
turn slightly in the opposite direction.
F
P
ush the fuel flap to close it.
When filling the tank, do not continue
beyond the 3
rd cut off of the nozzle; this
could cause malfunctions.
Your vehicle is fitted with a
catalytic converter,
which helps to reduce the level of harmful
emissions in the exhaust gases.
The filler neck is narrower, allowing only
unleaded petrol nozzles to be introduced.
