In wintry conditions, remove all snow or
ice on the camera on the windscreen
before moving off.
Other wise, this can affect the function
of the equipment associated with the
camera.
Heated windscreen
In cold weather, this system heats the bottom of
the windscreen, as well as the areas alongside
the windscreen pillars.
Without changing the settings for the air
conditioning system, it allows faster release
of the windscreen wiper blades when they
are frozen to the windscreen and helps avoid
the accumulation of snow resulting from the
operation of the windscreen wipers.
Switching on/off
F With the engine running, press this button; its indicator lamp comes on.
The function is active when the exterior
temperature is below 0°C.
F

P

running.
Switching off
Demisting/defrosting switches off automatically
to prevent an excessive consumption of current.
F

I
t is possible to stop the demisting/
defrosting operation before it is switched off
automatically by pressing the button again.
The indicator lamp associated with the button
goes off.
Switch off the demisting/defrosting of
the rear screen and door mirrors as
soon as appropriate, as lower current

camera located at the top of the windscreen.
This system is a driving aid.
The driver remains responsible for the
vehicle's lighting, its correct use for the
prevailing conditions of light, visibility,
traffic and obser vation of driving and
vehicle regulations.
The system will be operational as soon as
you have exceeded 16 mph (25
km/h).
If the speed drops below 9 mph (15
km/h),
the system no longer operates.

heavy rain, etc.),
-
i
f the windscreen is dirty, misted or

lighting, such as pedestrians,
-
v
ehicles whose lighting is obscured
(for example: vehicles running behind
a safety barrier on a motor way),
-
v
ehicles at the top or bottom of a
steep slope, on winding roads, on
crossroads.
If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or if
the traffic conditions do not allow illumination of
the main beam headlamps: -

d

ipped beam is maintained,
these indicator lamps come on in
the instrument panel. If the ambient light level is very low and the
traffic conditions permit:
-

Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal sur face of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.

bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
conceal the detection camera.
Static cornering lighting
Activation/Deactivation
The function is activated and
deactivated in the Driving/Vehicle
menu of the touch screen.
Switching on
This system operates from a certain angle of
rotation of the steering wheel.
Switching off
The system does not operate:
- b elow a certain angle of rotation of the
steering wheel,
-

-
w

hen reverse gear is engaged.
Night Vision
Using an infrared camera at the front of the
vehicle, the system identifies and signals the
presence of pedestrians and animals in the
driver’s field of vision, in low exterior light
conditions.
For the permanent display of the image from
the infrared camera in the instrument panel,
select the "Night Vision" display mode by
turning the knob located to the left of the
steering wheel. Once the conditions are met,
an alert is triggered when there is a risk of
collision. Night Vision is a driving aid system that
cannot, under any circumstances, replace
the personal assessment of night-time
visibility and traffic conditions.
In some conditions, the contrasts in
temperature are insufficient and the
system may not detect all dangers or,
conversely, it may give false warnings
(e.g. engines of lorries parked on the edge
of the road).
Conditions for operation
With the dipped or main beam headlamps on,
this function allows headlamps to illuminate
the inside of a bend using light-emitting diodes
(LEDs).
The speed of the vehicle must be less than 56
mph (90 km/h).
This function is only available with the "Full
LED" technology headlamps. If the "Night Vision" display mode has not been
selected, the alert is triggered in the form of a
temporary window displayed in the instrument
panel.
The function is available with the engine
running and in STOP mode of Stop & Start.
The light conditions must be very poor. The
dipped beam headlamps must be switched on
and maintained in good working order.
The temperature detection range is between
-30°C and +30°C.
The speed of the vehicle must be less than
99
mph (160 km/h).
The camera detection range is between 15
m
(for pedestrians) and 200
m, depending on
visibility conditions.
Lighting and visibility

93
Animals less than 0.50 m tall are not detected.
T he instrument panel must be in "Night Vision"
display mode for the infrared camera image to
be displayed constantly.
The constant display disappears upon
switching off the ignition or if the conditions are
not met.
Operation
Activation/deactivation of the function
is done in the Driving/Vehicle menu
of the touch screen.
If all the operating conditions are
met, this indicator lamp comes on in
green: the display in the instrument
panel (with "Night Vision" mode
selected) and triggering of alerts are
available.
If certain operating conditions (speed
or temperature) are not met, the
indicator lamp comes on in orange:
only the display in the instrument
panel is available (in "Night Vision"
m o d e).
Whilst the exterior light is too bright
or the dipped beam headlamps have
not been switched on, the alerts are
not available. The image provided by the camera is displayed
in shades of grey in the instrument panel; warm
objects appear brighter than cold objects.
Once pedestrians or animals are detected, they
appear in yellow frames.
Once the system detects a risk
of collision with pedestrians or
animals, it triggers an alert: one of
these symbols is displayed in the
instrument panel. The respective
silhouette is framed in red. If the "Night Vision" display mode has not been
selected, the alert is triggered in the form of a
temporary window.
In the event of an alert, the driver may act by
making an avoiding manoeuvre or by braking.

Recommendations on care
The infrared camera has a wash nozzle
connected to the vehicle’s front screenwash
system.
This nozzle operates every 5th use of the
screenwash.
Regularly check that the camera is clean.
In bad weather, or in wintry conditions, ensure
that the camera is not covered with mud, ice
or snow.
Malfunction
An orange warning lamp coming on
whilst all the operating conditions
have been met, accompanied by
a message, indicates a system
malfunction.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Wiper control stalk
Programming
You can activate automatic wiping for the front
wipers.
On the SW, you can also configure rear wiping
on engaging reverse gear. In wintry conditions, remove snow, ice or
frost present on the windscreen, around
the wiper arms and blades and the
windscreen seal, before operating the
wipers.
Do not operate the wipers on a dry
windscreen. Under extremely hot or cold
conditions, ensure that the wiper blades
are not stuck to the windscreen before
operating the wipers.
Windscreen wipers
After switching off the ignition, a slight
movement of the windscreen wipers being
stored under the bonnet may occur.
Each time the ignition has been switched
off for more than a minute, regardless of
the previous wiper control stalk position,
it is necessary to reactivate the wiping by
operating the control.
Automatic (proportional to the
intensity of the rain).
Wiping speed selection control: raise or lower
the stalk to the desired position.
