Recommendations on care
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or
snow. When reverse gear is engaged, an
audible signal (long beep) indicates that
the sensors may be dirty. High pressure washing
When washing your vehicle, direct the
lance at least 30
cm away from the
sensors.
Operating fault
If a fault occurs when shifting
t o reverse, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by a
message and an
audible signal (short beep).
Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.

Different contextual views can be displayed in
the left-hand part:
-
s
tandard view,
-
1
80° view,
-
z
oom view.
With the engine running, these systems allow
views of your vehicle's close surroundings to
be displayed on the touch screen using one
camera for Visiopark 1
and two cameras for
Visiopark 2.
The screen is divided into two parts: on the
left, a contextual view; on the right, a view from
above the vehicle in its close surroundings.
The parking sensors supplement the
information on the view from above the vehicle.

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 in the
instrument panel. 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 the Park Assist deactivates
the Blind Spot Monitoring System. During parking and exit from parking
manoeuvres, Visiopark 1
and Visiopark 2
functions may come into operation. They
facilitate monitoring of the surroundings
of the vehicle, by displaying additional
information in the instrument panel.
For more information on Visiopark 1
and
Visiopark 2 , refer to the corresponding
section.
The assistance is activated:
the display of this symbol and
a
speed limit indicate that
the steering manoeuvres are
controlled by the system: do not
touch the steering wheel.
The assistance is deactivated:
the display of this symbol
indicates that the steering
manoeuvres are no longer
controlled by the system:
you must take control of the
steering.

Fuel
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 56 litres.
R eser ve level: 6 litres.
Low fuel level
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start,
never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
using the key, or the START/STOP button
if your vehicle has
K
eyless Entry and
Starting.
Refuelling
If you have put in the wrong fuel for your
vehicle, you must have the fuel tank
drained and filled with the correct fuel
before starting the engine.
When the low fuel level is reached
in the fuel tank, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of
a
message and an audible signal.
When it first comes on, about
6
litres of fuel is left in the tank.
Until sufficient fuel is added, this warning lamp
appears every time the ignition is switched on,
accompanied by the display of a
message and
an audible signal. When driving, this message
and audible signal are repeated with increasing
frequency as the fuel level drops towards 0 .
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out
of fuel.
For more information on Running out of fuel
(Diesel) , refer to the corresponding section. A label on the inside of the fuel filler flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to use,
depending on your engine type.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5
litres, in
order to be registered by the fuel gauge.
Opening the filler cap may create a noise
caused by an inrush of air. This vacuum is
entirely normal, resulting from the sealing of the
fuel system. Once you have finished refuelling:
F
R
efit the filler cap.

Maintenance
Correct operation is only possible if the towball
and its carrier are kept clean.
Before cleaning the vehicle with a high-
pressure jet wash, the towball must be removed
and the protective plug fitted to the carrier.
Apply the label provided to a
clearly visible
area, close to the carrier or in the boot.
Go to a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for any work on the towbar
system.
Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as air conditioning,
heated rear screen, etc.
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.

System which manages the duration of use of
certain functions to conser ve a sufficient level
of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio and
telematics system, windscreen wipers, dipped
beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for
a
maximum combined duration of about forty
minutes.
Switching to this mode
A message appears in the instrument panel
screen indicating that the vehicle has switched
to economy mode and the active functions are
put on standby.
If a
telephone call is being made at this
time, it will be maintained for around
10
minutes with the Bluetooth hands-free
system of your audio system.
Exiting the mode
These functions will be automatically restored
the next time the vehicle is used.

Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer or
a
qualified workshop and dispose of it in
the containers reser ved for this purpose.
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles equipped with an
electric gauge, or using the dipstick.
To ensure that the reading is correct, your
vehicle must be parked on a
level sur face
with the engine stopped for more than
30
minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between
two ser vices (or oil changes). PEUGEOT
recommends that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3,000
miles (5,000 km).
Checking using the dipstick
F Take the dipstick by its coloured grip and pull it out completely.
F
W
ipe the end of the dipstick using a clean
non-fluffy cloth.
F
R
efit the dipstick and push fully down, then
pull it out again to make the visual check:
the correct level is between marks A and B .
A = MA X
B = MIN
If you find that the level is above the A mark or
below the B mark, do not star t the engine.
-
I
f the level is above the MAX mark (risk of
damage to the engine), contact a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
-
I
f the level is below the MIN mark, you must
top up the engine oil.Oil grade
Before topping up the oil or changing the oil,
check that the oil is the correct grade for your
engine and conforms to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Topping up the engine oil level
The location of the oil filler cap is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
F
U

F
A
fter checking the level, carefully refit the oil
filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
After topping up the oil, the check
when switching on the ignition with the
oil level indicator in the instrument panel
is not valid during the 30
minutes after
topping up.
The location of the dipstick is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
