Adjusting the height of the
head restraint
The head restraint has a frame with
notches which prevents it from lowering;
this is a safety device in case of impact.
The adjustment is correct when the
upper edge of the head restraint is
level with the top of the head.
Never drive with the head restraints
removed; they must be fitted and correctly
adjusted.
Never drive with passengers seated at
the rear when the head restraints are
removed or not in the high position; the
head restraints must be in place and in the
high position.

Offers the best compromise between
a comfortable temperature and quiet
operation.
Provides dynamic and effective air

When the engine is cold, the air flow will
only reach its optimum level gradually
to prevent too much cold air being
distributed.
In cold weather, it favours the distribution
of warm air to the windscreen, the side
windows and the footwells only.

On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer
than the comfort value setting, there is no
need to alter the value displayed in order
to reach the required level of comfort. The

The additional heating system is powered
by the fuel in the vehicle's fuel tank.
Before use, ensure that there is enough
fuel in the tank.
If the tank level is on reser ve, the system
cannot be used.
The ventilation is activated provided that
the battery is sufficiently charged.
The heating is activated provided that:
-
t
he battery is sufficiently charged,
-
t
he fuel level is adequate,
-
t
he engine has been started since the
previous heating cycle.
Always switch off the additional heating
while refuelling – risk of fire or explosion! Glazed sur faces such as the rear screen
or windscreen can become very hot in
places.
Never put objects on these sur faces;
never touch these sur faces – risk of burns!
Do not throw remote control batteries
away as they contain metals which are
harmful to the environment. Take them
to an approved collection point.
To avoid the risks of poisoning or
asphyxia, the programmable heating must
not be used, even for short periods, in a
closed environment such as a garage or
workshop which is not equipped with an
exhaust gas extraction system.
Do not park the vehicle on a flammable
sur face (dry grass, dead leaves, paper,
etc.) – risk of fire!

When the lighting is left on
An audible signal when a front door is
opened warns the driver that the vehicle's
exterior lighting is on, with the ignition off
and in manual lighting mode.
In this case, switching off the lighting
stops the audible signal.
The lighting goes off when you switch off
the ignition, but you can always switch it
on again using the lighting control stalk. Travelling abroad
If using your vehicle in a country that
drives on the other side of the road, the
headlamps must be adjusted to avoid
dazzling on-coming drivers.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In good or rainy weather, by both day and
night, use of the front foglamps and the
rear foglamps are prohibited. In these
situations, the power of their beams may
dazzle other drivers. They should only be
used in fog or falling snow.
In these weather conditions, it is your
responsibility to switch on the foglamps
and dipped headlamps manually as the
sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light.
Switch off the front and rear foglamps
when they are no longer necessary.
Never look too closely at the luminous
beam of LED headlamps: risk of serious
eye injury.Direction indicators

an audible signal and/or a message.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop. In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may

lighting will not come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located
on the dashboard or at the top of the
windscreen behind the rear view mirror
(depending on equipment); the associated
functions would no longer be controlled.

The trailer stability assist system
offers increased safety in normal
driving conditions, provided that the
recommendations on towing a trailer are
obser ved. It must not encourage the driver
to take additional risks, such as towing
a trailer in adverse operating conditions
(overloading, failure to obser ve the trailer
nose weight, worn or under-inflated tyres,
faulty braking system, etc.) or drive at too
high a speed.
In certain cases, the swaying of the trailer
may not be detected by the ESC system,
particularly with a light trailer.
When driving on slippery or poor sur faces,
the system may not be able to prevent
sudden swaying of the trailer.
Advanced Grip Control
Special patented traction control system which
improves driveability on snow, mud and sand.
This system, the operation of which has been
optimised for each situation, allows you to
manoeuvre in most conditions of poor grip
(encountered during passenger vehicle use).Associated with all-season M+S (Mud and
Snow) tyres, this system offers a compromise
between safety, grip and driveability.
The accelerator pedal should be pressed
sufficiently to allow the system to use the power
of the engine. Operation at high engine speeds
is completely normal.
A five-position selector knob allows you to
choose the setting best suited to the driving
conditions encountered.
An indicator lamp associated with each mode
comes on, accompanied by the display of a
message to confirm your choice.
Operating modes
Every time the ignition is switched off, the
system automatically resets to this mode.
Snow
This mode adapts its strategy to
the conditions of grip encountered
for each of the two front wheels on
moving off.
(mode active up to 50
mph (80 km/h))
All terrain (mud, damp grass,
etc.)
This mode, when moving off, allows
considerable spin on the wheel with
the least grip to optimise clearing
of the mud and to regain grip. At
the same time, the wheel with the
most grip is controlled in such a
way as to transmit as much torque
as possible.
When moving, the system optimises wheel spin
to respond to the driver's requirements as fully
as possible.
(mode active up to 31
mph (50 km/h))
Standard (ESC)
This mode is calibrated for a low
level of wheel spin, based on the
different levels of grip normally
encountered on the road.

Advice
An incorrectly installed child seat
compromises the child's safety in the
event of an accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat
belt buckle under the child seat, as this
could destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses keeping the slack
relative to the child's body to a minimum,
even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat
belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened
correctly on the child seat and that it
secures the child seat firmly on the seat
of your vehicle. If your passenger seat is
adjustable, move it forwards if necessary.
The head restraint must be removed
before installing a child seat with a
backrest on a passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from being
thrown around the vehicle in the event
of sharp braking. Refit the head restraint
once the child seat has been removed.Children in the front
Deactivate the front passenger airbag
when a rear ward facing child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were deployed.Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
We recommend using a booster seat with
a backrest equipped with a belt guide at
shoulder level.
Additional protections
To prevent accidental opening of the doors
and rear windows, use the child lock.
Take care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays
of the sun, fit side blinds on the rear
windows.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
-
a c
hild or children alone and
unattended in a vehicle,
-
a c
hild or an animal in a vehicle
which is exposed to the sun, with the
windows closed,
-
t
he keys within reach of children inside
the vehicle.
Children in the rear
In the rear seats, always leave sufficient
space between the front seat and:
-
a r
ear ward facing child seat,
-
t
he child's feet for a child seat fitted
forward facing.
To do this, move the front seat for wards
and, if necessary, move its backrest into
the upright position.
For optimal installation of the forward
facing child seat, verify that its backrest is
as close as possible to the backrest of the
vehicle seat, if possible in contact with it.
