A.Parallel parking.
B. Exit from a parallel parking space.
C. Bay parking.
During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel per forms rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel, do not put your hands
between the spokes of the steering wheel.
Watch out for any object that could block
the manoeuvre (loose clothing, scar ves,
ties, etc.) - injury risk!
When the Park Assist is active, it prevents
the Stop & Start going into STOP mode.
In STOP mode, activating Park Assist
restarts the engine. The Park Assist system takes control
of the assistance for a maximum of
4
manoeuvre cycles. The function is
deactivated after these 4 cycles. If you
think that your vehicle is not positioned
correctly, you should then take control of
the steering to carry out the manoeuvre.
The sequence of manoeuvres and the
driving instructions are displayed on the
touch screen.
You should always check the surroundings
of your vehicle before starting a
manoeuvre. The parking sensors function is
not available during parking space
measurement. It intervenes later when
manoeuvring to warn you that your vehicle
is approaching an obstacle: the audible
signal becomes continuous when the
obstacle is less than thirty centimetres
away.
If you have deactivated the parking
sensors, they are automatically
reactivated during assisted parking
manoeuvres.
Activation of Park Assist deactivates the
Blind Spot Detection.

When it first comes on, less than 6 litres of fuel
r emain in the tank.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
Fuel cut- of f
Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system that
cuts off the supply of fuel in the event of an
impact.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start,
never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Diesel misfuel prevention
Mechanical device which prevents filling the
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It helps
avoid the risk of engine damage that can result
from filling with the wrong fuel.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel
prevention device appears when the filler cap
is removed. It is still possible to use a fuel can to fill the
t a n k s l ow l y.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in
direct contact with the flap of the misfuel
prevention device.Driving abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be
different in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may make
refuelling impossible.
Not all Diesel vehicles are fitted with
misfuel protection, so before travelling
abroad, we recommend that you check
with the PEUGEOT dealer network,
whether your vehicle is suitable for the
fuel pumps in the country in which you
intend to travel.
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the
Diesel tank, it comes into contact with the flap.
The system remains closed and prevents filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.

DAB/FM station tracking
"DAB" does not have 100% coverage of
the country.
When the digital signal is weak,
"DAB / FM auto tracking" allows you to
continue listening to the same station,
by automatically switching to the

when the system switches to the analogue
FM station sometimes with a change in
volume. If the "DAB" station you are listening to
is not available on FM ("
DAB/FM" option
struck out), or if "DAB / FM auto tracking"
is not enabled, the sound will be cut when
the digital signal is too weak.
Media
USB port
To protect the system, do not use a USB
hub.
Insert the USB memory stick into the USB port

using a suitable cable (not supplied).
The system changes automatically to "USB"
source. Any additional equipment connected to
the system must conform to the standard
of the product or standard IEC 60950 -1.
The system builds playlists (in temporary
memory), an operation which can take from
a few seconds to several minutes at the first
connection.
Reduce the number of non-music files and the
number of folders to reduce the waiting time.
Playlists are updated every time a new USB
memory stick is connected. When the USB port is used, the portable
device charges automatically.

QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
With the engine off, the audio system switches
off after a few minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the audio
system operating time depends on the state of
charge of the battery.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system
switches to economy mode and switches off to
prevent discharging the vehicle's battery.Start the vehicle’s engine to increase the
battery charge.
The message "the audio system is overheated"
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the
surrounding temperature is too high, the audio
system switches to an automatic thermal
protection mode leading to a reduction of the
volume.Switch the audio system off for a few minutes
to allow the system to cool.
Radio
QUESTION
RESPONSESOLUTION
There is a difference in sound quality between
the different audio sources (radio, USB, etc.). To allow for optimal listening quality, the audio
settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience,
Loudness) can be tailored to different
sound sources, which can generate audible
differences when changing source (radio, USB,
e t c .) .Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted
to the sources listened to. It is advisable
to set the audio functions (Bass, Treble,
Front-Rear Fader, Left-Right Balance) to the
middle position, select the musical ambience
"None" and set the loudness correction to the
"Inactive" position in radio mode.
The preset stations do not function (no sound,
87.5
MHz is displayed, etc.). An incorrect waveband is selected.
Press the BAND button to return to the
waveband (FM, FM2, DAB, AM) on which the
stations are preset.

The traffic announcement (TA) is displayed. I
do not receive any traffic information.The radio station is not part of the regional
traffic information network.Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffic
information.
The reception quality of the tuned radio station
gradually deteriorates or the station presets are
not working (no sound, 87.5
MHz is displayed,
e t c .) . The vehicle is too far from the transmitter of
the station or no transmitter is present in the
geographical area.
Activate the RDS function to allow the system
to see if a more power ful transmitter is within
the geographic area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels,
basement car parks, etc.) blocks reception,
including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not
indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for
example when going through an automatic car
wash or in an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to 2
seconds in radio
mode. During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS
searches for another frequency giving better
reception of the station.Switch off the RDS function if the phenomenon
is too frequent and always on the same route.
