of time that depends on the state of charge
in battery (entering energy economy mode).
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence

glass of the headlamps and rear lamps is
normal; it disappears after the lamps have
been on for a few minutes.

Tyre under-inflation
detection
This system automatically monitors the tyre
pressures while driving.
The system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the wheel
speed sensors with reference values, which
must be reinitialised ever y time the tyre
pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed .
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres. The Stop & Start system requires a
12
V battery of specific technology and
specification.
All work on this type of battery must be
carried out only by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
For more information on the 12 V batter y
,
refer to the corresponding section.
