Operating fault
If a fault occurs when shifting
to 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.
Visiopark 1 – Visiopark 2
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.
AUTO mode is activated by default.
In this mode, the system chooses the best view
to display (standard or zoom) according to the
information from the parking sensors.
You can change the type of view at any time
during a manoeuvre.

•
"AUTO view ".
The display is immediately updated with the
type of view selected.
The state of the system is not memorised when
the ignition is switched off.
Principle of operation
With Visiopark 2, the image is created using
both cameras, when going for ward and when
reversing.
When the function is activated, it is possible
that the view from above is not displayed.
If
the function is activated after the vehicle has
already been driven, the view from above may
be completely displayed. Using one or both cameras, the vehicle's close
surroundings are recorded during manoeuvres
at low speed.
An image from above your vehicle in its close
surroundings is created in real time, as the
vehicle manoeuvre progresses.
This representation facilitates the alignment of
your vehicle when parking and allows obstacles
close to the vehicle to be seen.
This image is automatically deleted if the
vehicle remains stationary for too long.

Full Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with
parking: it detects a parking space then
operates the vehicle to park it in this space,
without intervention from the driver.
Associated with the EAT8 automatic gearbox,
the system manages control of the steering,
direction, acceleration and braking.
To assist the driver in monitoring the
correct manoeuvring operation, the system
automatically triggers the display of Visiopark 1
or Visiopark 2 and the activation of the parking
sensors.

Refuelling
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 62 litres
(Petrol) or 55 litres (Diesel).
Reser ve level: 6 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fluid level is reached in
the tank, this warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel, accompanied
by a message and an audible signal.
When it first comes on, about
6 litres of fuel is left in the tank.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start,
never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Refilling
A self-adhesive label on the inner face of the
filler flap reminds you of the type of fuel to use,
depending on your engine.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres,
in order to be registered by the fuel gauge.
Opening the filler flap may create a noise
caused by an inrush of air. This is entirely
normal and results from the sealing of the fuel
system.
To refuel in complete safety:
F

Y
ou must switch off the engine.
F

W
ith the vehicle unlocked, press the rear
edge of the flap to open it (the filler cap is a
part of it). F
I nsert the nozzle so as to push in the metal
non-return flap.
F

operation.
F

P
ush the filler flap to close it.
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. If you are filling your tank to the top, do not
continue after the 3
rd cut- off of the nozzle;
this could cause malfunctions.
Your vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter,
a device which helps to reduce the level of
harmful emissions in the exhaust gases.
For petrol engines, you must use unleaded
fuel.
The filler neck is narrower, allowing only
unleaded petrol nozzles to be introduced.
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 star ting the engine.
F

T

ake care to select the pump that delivers
the correct type of fuel for your vehicle.
