Operation
If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or if
the traffic conditions do not allow illumination of
the main beam headlamps:
-

these indicator lamps come on
in the instrument panel.
If the ambient light level is very low and the
traffic conditions permit: -

ain beam comes on
automatically: these indicator
lamps come on in the
instrument panel. When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
As soon as the vehicle leaves the area of thick
fog, the function reactivates automatically.
This indicator lamp goes off while
the function is deactivated.
Pause
If the situation requires a change of headlamp
beam, the driver can take over at any time.

f the windscreen is dirty, misted or
obscured (by a sticker, etc.) in front of
the camera,
-

(for example: vehicles running behind
a safety barrier on a motor way),
-
v
ehicles at the top or bottom of a
steep slope, on winding roads, on
crossroads. Present on vehicles fitted with "Full LED"
technology headlamps, this system makes
use of the beam from a front foglamp to
illuminate the inside of a bend, when the

Do not pull a trailer before having
driven at least approximately 600
miles
(1,000
kilometres).
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height
of your vehicle.

adjustment , refer to the corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the

The keys contain an electronic chip which has
a secret code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised in order for
starting to be possible.
A few seconds after switching off the ignition,
this system locks the engine control system,
therefore preventing the engine from being
started in the event of a break-in.

Driving

The cruise control operates by day and
night, in fog or moderate rainfall.
However, it is strongly recommended
that you always keep a safe distance
from vehicles ahead, according to the
driving conditions, the weather and the
road surface.
Use the cruise control only where
the driving conditions allow running
at a constant speed and keeping an
adequate safety distance.
Do not activate the cruise control in an
urban area where pedestrians are likely
to cross the road, in heavy traffic, on
winding or steep roads, on slippery or
flooded roads, when there is snowfall,
if the front bumper or the windscreen
is damaged, or when the brake lamps
have failed.
In certain circumstances, it may not
be possible for the speed setting to be
maintained or even attained: loaded
vehicle, ascending a steep hill, etc.The system is not intended for the
following situations:
-
i
f the front end of the vehicle has
been modified (addition of long-range
headlamps, painting of the front
bumper),
-
d
riving on a racing circuit,
-
r
unning on a rolling road,
-
u
se of snow chains, non-slip covers or
studded tyres.
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may inter fere with the
operation of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
e
nsure that the mat is secured
c o r r e c t l y,
-
d
o not fit one mat on top of another.The camera may be disrupted or not
work in the following situations:
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate street
lighting, falling snow, heavy rain,
dense fog, etc.),
-
d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on
a damp road, leaving a tunnel,
alternating shade and light, etc.),
-
c
amera or radar obstructed (mud,
frost, snow, condensation, etc.).
In these situations, detection
performance may be reduced.
Operation of the radar, located in the
front bumper, may be impaired by the
accumulation of dirt (dust, mud, etc.)
or in certain weather conditions (snow,
f r o s t , e t c .) .
Clean the front bumper regularly.
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the
detection camera.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on
the bonnet or roof of the vehicle, as this
could obscure the camera.

Deactivation of the system is
signalled by the illumination of this
indicator lamp, accompanied by the
display of a message.
The camera may be disrupted or not
work in the following situations:
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate street
lighting, falling snow, heavy rain,
dense fog, etc.),
-

vehicle, low sun, reflections on
a damp road, leaving a tunnel,

-
c
amera or radar obstructed (mud,
frost, snow, condensation, etc.).
On versions with camera alone, this
message indicates to you that the
camera is obstructed: " Driving aids
camera: visibility limited, see user
guide ".
In these situations, detection
performance may be reduced. Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the
camera.
The internal sur face of the windscreen
can also become misted around the
camera. In humid and cold weather,
demist the windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on
the bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this
could conceal the detection camera.
Clean the front bumper, especially
around the radar, removing mud, snow,
etc.
If the front bumper is to be repainted or
touched up, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop. Certain types of
paint could inter fere with the operation of
the radar.
The system is automatically deactivated
after the use of the "space-saver" type
spare wheel is detected, or if a fault with
the side brake lamps is detected.Malfunction
In the event of a fault with the
system, you are alerted by the
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of a
message and an audible signal.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
Fatigue detection system
It is recommended that you take a break as
soon as you feel tired or at least every two
hours.
Depending on version, the function either
has the "Driving time warning" only, or this
combined with the "Driver inattention alert".
The system cannot in any circumstances
replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver.
Do not take the wheel if you are tired.
Activation / Deactivation
The system is activated or deactivated via the
vehicle configuration menu.
For more information on the menu, refer
to the section covering your screen in the
"Instruments" section.

In certain driving conditions (poor road
sur face or strong winds), the system may
give alerts independent of the driver's
level of vigilance.The following situations may interfere
with the operation of the system or
prevent it working:

System
System which, using a camera which
recognises solid or broken lines, detects the
involuntary crossing of longitudinal traffic lane
markings on the ground.
To provide safe driving, the camera analyses
the image then, if the driver's attention drops
and the speed is higher than 37 mph (60 km/h),
triggers a warning if there is an unexpected
change of direction.
This system is particularly useful on motor ways
and main roads.
Activation / Deactivation
This function cannot be deactivated on
versions without a touch screen. This system is a driving aid which
cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver. Activation and deactivation of the
system is done in the Vehicle /
Driving
menu of the touch screen.
The system state remains in memory when the
ignition is switched off.
Detection
If an unexpected change of direction
is detected, you are alerted by
this warning lamp flashing in the
instrument panel and an audible
signal.
Operating fault
If a fault occurs, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by a message and an
audible signal.
Select the "
Driving functions " then the "Lane
departure warning system " tab.
No warning is transmitted while the direction
indicator is active and for approximately
20
seconds after the direction indicator is
switched off.
