Windscreen and headlamp
wash
On vehicles fitted with automatic air
conditioning, any action on the windscreen
wash control results in temporary closing
of the air intake to avoid odours inside the
passenger compartment.
Screenwash/headlamp wash

In the case of vehicles fitted with
headlamp washers, when the fluid
reser voir low level is reached this
warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message.
The warning lamp comes on when the ignition
is switched on, or every time the stalk is
operated, until the reser voir is refilled.

Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system permits the
optimum braking pressure to be reached
more quickly, therefore reducing the stopping
distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. The effect of this is
a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and
an increase in braking efficiency.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Traction
Control) optimises traction in order to limit
wheel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that required by
the driver, the DSC monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws
of physics.
Intelligent traction control
If your vehicle has this system, it features a
system to help driving on snow: intelligent
traction control.
This system detects situations of difficult
sur face grip that could make it difficult to move
off or make progress on deep fresh snow or
compacted snow.
In these situations, the intelligent traction
control limits the amount of wheel spin to
provide the best traction and trajectory control
for your vehicle.
The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on sur faces offering low
levels of grip.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD)
The fixed illumination of this warning
lamp indicates that there is a fault
with the ABS.If this warning lamp comes on, in
conjunction with the STOP and
ABS warning lamps, an audible
signal and a message, it means
that the electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD) is defective.
You must stop as soon as it is
safe to do so.
In both cases, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop as soon
as possible.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.

Advice
The driver must ensure that passengers use
the seat belts correctly and that they are all
restrained securely before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt buckles as
they will not completely fulfil their role.
The seat belts are equipped with an inertia
reel which allows the strap length to adjust
automatically to your shape. The seat belt is
stowed automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the seat belt
is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be positioned
as low as possible on the pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in the
hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels have an automatic blocking
device at the time of a collision, during
sudden braking or if the vehicle turns over.
You can release the device by pulling the
strap firmly and then releasing it so that it
reels in slightly.Instructions for children
Use a suitable child seat, if the passenger
is less than 12
years old or shorter than
one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to secure
more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your lap.
For more information on Child seats , refer
to the corresponding section.
In case of impact
Depending on the nature and seriousness
of the impact, the pyrotechnic may be
deployed before and independent of the
airbags. Deployment of the pyrotechnics
is accompanied by a slight discharge of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp is lit.
After an impact, get the seat belt system
checked and, if necessary, have it
replaced by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
-
b e tightened as close to the body as
possible,
-

b
e pulled in front of you with a smooth
movement, checking that it does not twist,
-

b
e used to restrain only one person,
-

n
ot show any signs of cuts or fraying,
-

n
ot be converted or modified to avoid
affecting its performance.
In accordance with current safety regulations,
for all repairs on your vehicle's seat belts, go
to a qualified workshop with the skills and
equipment needed, which a PEUGEOT dealer
is able to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regularly by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop,
particularly if the straps show signs of
damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy water or
a textile cleaning product, sold by PEUGEOT
dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear bench
seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned
and reeled in correctly.

Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F
T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towable load on an incline
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
F

I
f this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
New vehicle
Do not pull a trailer before having driven at
least around 600
miles (1,000 kilometres).
When the exterior temperature is high,
leaving the engine running for 1
to
2
minutes after stopping the vehicle to
allow it to cool is recommended.
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.
For more information on Headlamp
beam height adjustment , refer to the
corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal if a genuine PEUGEOT
towbar is used.

Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
stops in traffic (red lights, traffic jams, etc.). The
engine restarts automatically – START mode –
as soon as you want to move off.
The restart takes place instantly, quickly and
silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.
Going into engine
STOP mode
For your convenience during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
The Stop & Start does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as for
example, braking, power steering, etc.
A slight delay between the vehicle
stopping and the engine cutting out may
be noticed.Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
With a manual gearbox , when vehicle speed
is below 12 mph (20 km/h) or the vehicle is
stationary (depending on engine), the Stop &
Start warning lamp comes on in the instrument
panel and the engine goes into standby
automatically when you place the gear lever in
neutral and you release the clutch pedal.
With an automatic gearbox , vehicle
stationary, the Stop & Start warning lamp
on the instrument panel comes on and the
engine goes into standby automatically when
you press the brake pedal or place the gear
selector in position N .
With an electronic gearbox , vehicle speed
below 5 mph (8 km/h), the Stop & Start warning
lamp on the instrument panel comes on and the
engine goes into standby automatically when
you press the brake pedal or place the gear
selector in position N .
Stop & Start time counter
or(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
Special cases: STOP mode
not available
STOP mode is not invoked in certain temporary
conditions (examples: battery charge, engine
temperature, braking assistance, exterior
temperature) to assure correct operation of the
system and mainly when:
-

t
he vehicle is on a steep slope (uphill or
downhill),
-

t
he driver's door is open,
-

a s
liding side door is open,
-

t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-

t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10

Operation of the system may be felt by
slight vibration in the brake pedal.
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,
the automatic braking is maintained for
1 to 2 seconds.
With a manual gearbox, in the event of
automatic emergency braking until the
vehicle comes to a complete stop, the
vehicle may stall.
With an automatic gearbox, in the event
of automatic emergency braking until the
vehicle comes to a complete stop, keep
the brake pedal pressed down to prevent
the vehicle from starting off again.
If automatic emergency braking is not
activated, you are alerted by the fixed
display of the warning lamp accompanied
by a message.
Intelligent emergency braking
assistance
If the driver does not brake sufficiently
to avoid an accident, this system will
complete the braking.
This emergency braking system will not
act if you press the brake pedal.
Deactivation/Activation of the
alert and the braking
By default, the function is automatically
activated at every engine start.
The deactivation or activation of the function is
done in the vehicle configuration menu.
With audio system
Operating fault
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.
If the fault persists, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop to have the system
checked. If one of the two sensors (camera or radar)
is masked or its visibility is reduced, while
the other sensor is able to work normally,
the system still operates, but at a lower
level of per formance. No message or
warning lamp indicates this.
To ensure correct operation of the radar,
do not paint over the paintwork on the
vehicle's bumper.
Poor weather conditions (very heavy
rain, accumulation of snow in front of the
radar and the camera) may hinder the
operation of the system, with the display of
an operating fault message. The function
remains unavailable until the message
disappears.
