6Audible rear parking sensors
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .


If fitted to your vehicle, the system consists of 4
proximity sensors installed in the rear bumper.
They detect any obstacle, e.g. person, vehicle,
tree, barrier, which is behind the vehicle while
manoeuvring.
Certain types of obstacle detected at the
beginning of the manoeuvre will no longer be
detected at the end of manoeuvre if they are
located in the blind spots between and under the
sensors. Examples: stake, roadworks cone or
pavement post.
The rear parking sensors may be associated
with the reversing camera.
Switching on
► Engage reverse gear with the gear lever .

The proximity information is indicated by an
audible signal which becomes more rapid as the
vehicle approaches the obstacle.
When the distance between the rear of
the vehicle and the obstacle is less than
approximately 30 centimetres, the audible signal
becomes continuous.
Switching off
► Disengage reverse gear and shift to neutral.
Malfunction
If this warning lamp lights up on the
instrument panel, accompanied by a
message in the display, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Reversing camera
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .


If fitted to the vehicle, the camera is located at
the rear by the third brake lamp.


It transmits views to the screen installed in the
cab.
It can be activated or deactivated via the settings
menu of the touch screen audio and telematics
system.

Driving
This rear vision system is a driving aid. The
reversing camera may be associated with the
rear parking sensors.
Switching on
The camera comes into operation when reverse
gear is engaged and remains active up to
approximately 9 mph (15 km/h). It is deactivated
above 11 mph (18 km/h).
The camera also comes on with the vehicle
stationary, when the rear doors are opened.
Switching off
When engaging forward gear, the last image
remains displayed for approximately 5 seconds,
then goes out.
The last image also remains displayed in the
same way, with the vehicle stationary, when
closing the rear doors.
With optimum vehicle conditions (position
on the road, loading level) the maximum
area of visibility covered by the camera has a
field depth approximately 3 m long and 5.5 m
wide.
The area of visibility may vary depending on
the external weather conditions (brightness,
rain, snow, fog, etc.), the load in the vehicle
and the position of the vehicle on the road.
When cleaning the camera and the screen,
avoid using a detergent or a tool which may
scratch the glass.
Use a non-abrasive cloth or a small brush.

For over 20 years, the PEUGEOT TOTAL partnership has set new performance standards in achieving success in the toughest conditions, with victories in
the Le Mans 24 Hours, the World Rally Championship and the Dakar Rally.
To obtain these exceptional results, the Peugeot Sport teams chose TOTAL QUARTZ, a high-tech lubricant that protects the engine in the most extreme
conditions.

The capacity of the tank is about 90 litres.
Fuel tanks of different capacities may be fitted,
60 and 120 litres, depending on the engine.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel tank level E (Empty) is
reached, this warning lamp comes on.
At this moment, you have approximately 10 or
12 litres left in the reserve, depending on the
capacity of your tank and the engine.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid

The fuel tank must be filled with the engine off.► Open the fuel filler flap.► Hold the black filler cap with one hand.► With the other hand, insert the key and turn it anti-clockwise.

► Remove the black filler cap and hang it on the hook located on the inside of the filler flap.
A label inside the fuel filler flap indicates the type
of fuel to use.
Do not continue past the 3
rd cut-off of the nozzle.
This may cause malfunctions.
► After filling the fuel tank, lock the black filler cap and close the filler flap.
With the Stop & Start system, never
refuel with the engine in STOP mode;
you must switch off the ignition using the key.
Fuel system cut off
In the event of an impact, a device automatically
cuts off the fuel supply to the engine and the
vehicle's power supply.
It triggers the hazard warning lamps and the
courtesy lamps, as well as the unlocking of the

Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel
fuels could prevent the engine from operating
correctly. In these temperature conditions, use
winter-type Diesel fuel and keep the fuel tank
more than 50 % full.At temperatures below -15 °C (+5 °F) to avoid problems starting, it is best to park the vehicle
under shelter (heated garage).
Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage your vehicle’s
engine.
In certain countries, the use of a particular
fuel may be required (specific octane rating,
specific trade name, etc.) to ensure correct
operation of the engine.
For all additional information, consult a dealer.
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the
vehicle when braking.
The snow chains must be fitted only to the front wheels. They must never be
fitted to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
Observe the legislation in force in your
country on the use of snow chains and
the maximum authorised speed.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
Original tyre size Maximum link size.
205/70 R15 16 mm
215/70 R15 12 mm
225/70 R15 16 mm
215/75 R16 12 mm
225/75 R16 16 mm
For more information on snow chains, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Installation tips
► To fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat surface on the side of the road.► Apply the parking brake and position any wheel chocks under the wheels to prevent
movement of the vehicle.
► Fit the chains following the instructions provided by the manufacturer.► Move off gently and drive for a few moments, without exceeding 31 mph (50 km/h).► Stop the vehicle and check that the snow chains are correctly tightened.
It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry surface.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads that have been cleared of snow to avoid
damaging the vehicle's tyres and the road
surface. If the vehicle is fitted with alloy
