The assisted exit from parking manoeuvre is in
progress.
Without exceeding 3 mph (5 km/h), continue
the manoeuvres following the information given
by the "Parking sensors" system, until the end
of manoeuvre message is displayed.
The manoeuvre is complete once the front
wheels of the vehicle are out of the parking
space.
The indicator lamp in the control goes off,
accompanied by an audible signal.
The driver takes back control of the vehicle's
steering.
Deactivation

Malfunctions
In the event of a system fault, this
w arning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a
message
appears in the screen, accompanied
by an audible signal (short beep).
The indicator lamp in the control
flashes for a
few seconds. If the
problem occurs while using the
system, the indicator lamp goes off.
In the event of a
fault with the power
steering, these warning lamps come
on in the instrument panel.
Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If the lateral distance between your vehicle and the
space is too great, the system may not be able to
measure the space.
Any object exceeding the dimensions of the vehicle
(e.g. long or wide load) is not taken into account by
the Park Assist system during a
manoeuvre.
In bad and wintry weather, ensure that the
sensors are not covered by road dirt, ice
or snow.
In the event of a fault, have the system
checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a


qualified workshop.

Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle
services.
Unless there is a
leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
Brake disc/drum wear
For any information on checking
brake disc/drum wear, contact
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
e ffectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be adjusted, even between two
services.
This system must be checked by a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Wheels and tyres
The pressure must be checked on
all tyres, including the spare wheel,
when the tyres are "cold", at least
once a month and before a long
j o u r n ey. steering. Regular inspections of the condition
of tyres (tread and sides) and rims are
recommended as well as making sure that
valves are fitted.
Using different size wheels and tyres from
those specified can affect the lifetime of tyres,
wheel rotation, ground clearance and the
speedometer reading and have an adverse
effect on road holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
The pressures given on the tyre pressure label
are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven for
more than 10
minutes or more than 6 miles
(10

kilometres) at more than 31 mph (50 km/h),
0.3

bar (30 kPa) should be added to the values
given on the label.
Under-inflation increases fuel consumption.
Non-compliant tyre pressure causes premature
wear on tyres and has an adverse effect on the
vehicle's road holding – Risk of an accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces
braking efficiency and control of the vehicle's

The external environment (hills, buildings,
tunnels, basement car parks, etc.) may
block reception, including in RDS tracking
mode. This is a
normal effect of the way
in which radio waves are transmitted and
does not indicate any failure of the audio
equipment.

RDS
RDS, if displayed, allows you to continue
listening to the same station by automatically
retuning to alternative frequencies. However,
in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS
station may not be assured throughout the
entire country as radio stations do not cover
100% of the territory. This explains the loss
of reception of a
station during a journey.

Information and advice
The audio system will only play files with
".mp3", ".wma" and ".wav" extensions on a CD
and can play files with ".ogg" extension only on
USB.
File names should have less than
20


characters, avoiding special characters
(e.g. " ?; ù) so as to avoid any reading or
display problems. If the disc is burned in another format, it may
not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same burning
standard is always used on an individual disc,
with the lowest speed possible (4x maximum)
for the best acoustic quality.
In the particular case of a
multi-session CD, the
Joliet standard is recommended.
The playlists accepted on CD, MP3, iPod and
USB connection are types ".m3u" and ".wpl".
The system can recognise up to 5,000 files in
500 folders on 8 levels.
On a single disc, the CD player can read up
to 255 MP3 files spread over 8 folder levels
with a maximum of 192 folders. However, it
is recommended that the number of levels is
limited to 2 so as to reduce the time taken to
access and play the CD.
The folder structure is not obser ved during
playback.
Do not connect a hard disk or USB device other
than audio players to the USB socket. This may
cause damage to your installation.
Use only USB memory sticks formatted to FAT
32
(File Allocation Table).To protect the system, do not use a
USB
hub.
Bluetooth® audio streaming
Streaming allows music files on a telephone to
b e heard via the vehicle's speakers.
Connect the telephone: see the " Telephone"
section.
In the " Bluetooth: Audio " menu, select the
telephone to be connected.
The audio system connects to a
newly paired
telephone automatically.
Activate the streaming source by
pressing the SRC/TEL button.
In certain cases, play of the audio
files must be initiated from the
keypad.
The control of common tracks is possible
via the audio system control buttons and the
steering mounted controls, if the telephone
supports the function.
Contextual information can be displayed in the
screen.
The audio quality depends on the quality of
transmission by the telephone. It is recommended that you use genuine
Apple
® USB cables for correct operation.
In order to be able to play a

burned CDR or
CDRW, select standards ISO

9660

level 1, 2

or
Joliet if possible when burning the CD.
