Refitting
To refit the mat on the driver's side:
F p osition the mat correctly,
F
r
eattach the fixings by pressing,
F
c
heck that the mat is secured correctly.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
o
nly use mats which are suited to the
fixings already present in the vehicle;
these fixings must be used,
-
n
ever place one mat on top of another.
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may inter fere with access to
the pedals and hinder the operation of the
cruise control / speed limiter.
The mats approved by PEUGEOT have
two fixings located below the seat.

In this position, the courtesy
lamp comes on gradually:
When fitting the mat for the first time, on the
driver's side use only the fixings provided in the
wallet attached.
The other mats are simply placed on the carpet.

Foglamps
In clear weather or rain, during the day
or at night, it is prohibited to switch on
the front or rear foglamps. In these
situations, the power of their beams may
dazzle other drivers. They should only
be used in fog or 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.
Switch off the foglamps when they are
no longer necessary.Rear foglamps
The main or dipped beam headlamps
must be on. Rotate and release ring C
:
F

headlamps must be on.

foglamps.
F

foglamps,
F

front foglamps. Switching off the lamps when the
ignition is switched off
On switching off the ignition, all of the
lamps turn off immediately, except for
dipped beam if automatic guide-me-home
lighting is activated.
Switching on the lamps after the
ignition is switched off
To reactivate the lighting control, rotate
ring A to the 0
position – lamps off, then
to the desired position.
On opening the driver's door a temporary
audible signal warns the driver that the
lighting is on.
They will go off automatically after a
period of time that depends on the state
of charge in battery (entering energy-
saving mode).
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.

Advanced Grip Control
Special patented traction control system which
improves traction on snow, mud and sand.
This system, the operation of which has been
optimised for each situation, allows you to
manoeuvre in most conditions of poor grip
(encountered during touring use).
Associated with all-season M+S (Mud and
Snow) tyres, this system offers a compromise
between safety, adhesion and traction.
The accelerator pedal should be pressed
sufficiently to allow the system to use the power
of the engine. Operation at high engine speeds
is completely normal.
A five-position selector knob allows you to
choose the setting best suited to the driving
conditions encountered.
An indicator lamp associated with each mode
comes on, accompanied by the display of a
message to confirm your choice.
Operating modes
Standard (ESC)
This mode is calibrated for a low
level of wheel spin, based on the
different levels of grip normally
encountered on the road.
Every time the ignition is switched off, the
system automatically resets to this mode.
Snow
This mode adapts its strategy to
the conditions of grip encountered
for each of the two front wheels on
moving off.
(mode active up to 50
mph (80 km/h))
All terrain (mud, damp grass,
etc.)
This mode, when moving off, allows
considerable spin on the wheel with
the least grip to optimise clearing
of the mud and to regain grip. At
the same time, the wheel with the
most grip is controlled in such a
way as to transmit as much torque
as possible.
When moving, the system optimises wheel spin
to respond to the driver's requirements as fully
as possible.
(mode active up to 31
mph (50 km/h))
Sand
This mode allows little spin on the two driving
wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to
move for ward and limit the risks of getting stuck
in the sand.
(mode active up to 75 mph (120 km/h))
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck. F
P
lace the knob in this position.

Once the state of charge of the battery drops
to the reser ve level, the system switches to
energy economy mode: the power supply is
cut off automatically to preser ve the remaining
battery charge.Switching off the engine leads to a loss of
braking assistance.
Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key
or the remote control, which would weigh
down on its blade in the ignition switch
and could cause a malfunction.Starting the engine

the starter motor by turning the key
to position 3 without pressing the
accelerator pedal, until the engine
starts. Once the engine is running,
release the key.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp
can stay on for a longer period. When the
engine is hot, the warning lamp does not
come on. If the engine does not start straight
away, switch off the ignition. Wait a few
moments before operating the starter
motor again. If the engine does not start
after several attempts, do not keep trying:
you risk damaging the starter motor or
the engine. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
In temperate conditions, do not let the
engine idle to warm up but move off
straight away and drive at moderate
speed.
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. There is a risk of poisoning
and death!
In very extreme wintry conditions
(temperature below -23°C), to guarantee
correct operation and the longevity of
the mechanical elements of your vehicle,
engine and gearbox, the engine must be
left running for 4
minutes before starting
the vehicle.
