Driving
When the battery is in standby mode,
access to the vehicle is only possible by
unlocking the mechanical lock on the driver's
side door.
After a battery standby, the information (time, date, radio stations, etc.) is
memorised.
To remove the battery from standby mode:
► Turn the key to the MAR - ON position.► Start the vehicle normally (AV V position).
Parking brake
Application
► Apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle.► Check that the parking brake is correctly applied before leaving the vehicle.
Apply the parking brake only when the
vehicle is stationary.
When parking on a slope, turn your
wheels towards the kerb and pull the
parking brake lever up.
There is no advantage in engaging a gear
after parking the vehicle, particularly if the
vehicle is loaded.
In the event of a failure of the
hydraulic braking system
While driving , to avoid any accidental
movement of the vehicle, use the parking
brake while depressing the brake pedal.
In this exceptional circumstance, it is
advisable to pull the parking brake up gently
so as not to block the rear wheels - risk of
skidding!
Release

► Pull the lever up gently and press the button to release the parking brake.When the vehicle is being driven, this
warning lamp coming on indicates that
the parking brake is still applied or has not been
fully released.
Manual gearbox
To change gear easily, always fully depress the
clutch pedal.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught under
the pedal:
– ensure that the mat is positioned correctly,
– never fit one mat on top of another.
Avoid leaving your hand on the gear knob as
the force exerted, even if slight, may wear the
internal components of the gearbox over time.
Engaging reverse gear

► Lift the ring under the knob to engage reverse gear.
Never engage it until the vehicle has
come to a complete stop.
The movement must be done slowly to reduce
the noise when engaging reverse gear.
If fitted to the vehicle, the parking
sensors are activated when reverse gear
is engaged; an audible signal sounds.
For more information on the Parking
sensors, refer to the corresponding section.
Gear shift indicator
Depending on version or engine, this system
reduces fuel consumption by recommending a
higher gear change.
Gear shift recommendations should not be
considered compulsory. In fact, the road layout,
the traffic density and safety remain the deciding
factors when choosing the best gear. The driver
therefore remains responsible for deciding
whether or not to follow the indications issued by
the system.
The system cannot be deactivated.
Operation
The information appears in the instrument panel screen in the form of the SHIFT
indicator, accompanied by an upward arrow to
signal to the driver that they can change up.
The system adapts its gear shift recommendation according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the driver’s
requirements (power, acceleration, braking,
etc.).
The system never recommends engaging first
gear or reverse, or changing down.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start function puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
phases when the vehicle is stopped (red lights,

Stop & Start
The Stop & Start function puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
phases when the vehicle is stopped (red lights,
queues, etc.). The engine restarts automatically
- START mode - as soon as the driver wishes to
move off again.
Primarily designed for urban use, the function
is intended to reduce fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise level
when stationary.
The function does not affect the functionalities of
the vehicle, in particular the braking.
Deactivation/Reactivation
The function is activated by default when the
ignition is switched on.
To deactivate/reactivate the function:



► Press the button.A message in the instrument panel confirms the
change of status.
When the function is deactivated, the indicator
lamp is lit; if the engine was in standby, it restarts
immediately.
To allow continuous operation of the air conditioning, deactivate the Stop & Start.
Opening the bonnet
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to avoid
any risk of injury caused by the engine
restarting automatically.
Driving on flooded roads
Before entering into a flooded area, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Driving
recommendations, particularly on flooded
roads, refer to the corresponding section.
Going into engine STOP
mode
With the vehicle stationary, place the gear lever
in neutral and release the clutch pedal.
This indicator lamp comes on in the instrument panel and the engine goes into
standby.
Automatic engine shutdown is only possible when the speed of the vehicle
has exceeded 6 mph (10 km/h), to avoid
repeated engine shutdowns when driving
slowly.

Driving
The inflation pressures defined for the vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
Tyre pressures should be checked when the
tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or
after a journey of less than 6 miles (10 km) at
moderate speeds). Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to
the pressures shown on the label.
For more information on Identification
markings, including the tyre pressure label,
refer to the corresponding section.
The tyre pressure measurement unit can be configured with the MODE button: in
the "Tyre pressure measurement” menu, select
"psi/bar/kPa".
For more information on Vehicle configuration
(MODE), refer to the corresponding section.
Under-inflation alert
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and, depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
In the event of an anomaly noted on just one of
the tyres, depending on equipment, the symbol
or the message displayed identifies it.
► Reduce speed immediately , avoid excessive steering movements and avoid sudden braking.► Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
► Using a compressor , such as the one in the temporary puncture repair kit, check the
pressures of the four tyres when cold.
► If it is not possible to make this check immediately, drive carefully at reduced speed.► In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel
(depending on equipment).
The alert is kept active until the tyre/tyres concerned is/are reinflated, repaired or
replaced.
Malfunction
The flashing and then fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by the
illumination of the service warning lamp, and
depending on equipment, the display of a
message, indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, the tyre pressures are no longer
monitored.
This alert is also displayed if at least one wheel is not equipped with a sensor.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked or, following a puncture, to have the original wheel,
equipped with a sensor, refitted.
Pneumatic suspension

If the vehicle is equipped with pneumatic
suspension, it is possible to change the height
of the rear sill, in order to facilitate loading or
unloading.



There is a normal sill level, as well as 3 higher levels (from +1 to +3) and 3 lower levels (from -1 to -3). Each level reached is displayed on the
instrument panel display screen.
Loading sill height manual

Malfunction
If a fault occurs with the system, this
warning lamp comes on.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Driving with the suspension set too high
or too low poses risk of damaging
components under the body.
The height may be adjusted automatically to
take account of changes in temperature or
loading.
You must avoid using this control in the
following circumstances:
– when working underneath the vehicle,– when changing a wheel,– when the vehicle is being transported by lorry, train, ferry, boat, etc.
To avoid damaging the vehicle or injuring
anyone, check that there is nothing or no
person that might be close to or come into
contact with the vehicle, before raising or
lowering the suspension.
Driving and manoeuvring
aids - General
recommendations
Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must comply with the Highway
Code, must remain in control of the vehicle in
all circumstances and must be able to retake
control of it at all times. The driver must adapt
the speed to climactic conditions, traffic and
the state of the road.
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly
check the traffic, to assess the relative
distances and speeds of other vehicles and to
anticipate their movements before indicating
and changing lane.
The systems cannot exceed the limits of the
laws of physics.
Driving aids
You should hold the steering wheel
with both hands, always use the interior and
exterior rear view mirrors, always keep the
feet close to the pedals and take a break
every two hours.
Manoeuvring aids
The driver must always check the
surroundings of the vehicle before and during

74
Driving
the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the
mirrors.
Radar
The operation of the radar as well as the
associated functions may be impaired through
the accumulation of dirt (mud, frost, etc.), in
certain difficult weather conditions (very heavy
rain, snow) or if the bumper is damaged.
If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop;
certain types of paint could interfere with the
operation of the radar.
Driving aids camera
This camera and its associated functions
may be impaired or not work if the windscreen
area in front of the camera is dirty, misty,
frosty, covered with snow, damaged or
masked by a sticker.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting,
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle
(headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun,
reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel,
alternating shade and light) can also impair
detection performance.
In the event of a windscreen replacement,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to recalibrate the camera;
otherwise, the operation of the associated
driving aids may be disrupted.
Other cameras
The images from the camera(s)
displayed on the touch screen or on the
instrument panel may be distorted by the
relief.
In the presence of areas in shade, or in
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate
lighting, the image may be darkened and with
lower contrast.
Obstacles may appear further away than they
actually are.
Sensors
The operation of the sensors as well as
the associated functions may be disturbed
by sound interference such as that emitted
by noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries,
pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of
snow or dead leaves on the road or in the
event of damaged bumpers and mirrors.
When reverse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors
may be dirty.
A front or rear impact to the vehicle can
upset the sensors’ settings, which is not
always detected by the system: distance
measurements may be distorted.
The sensors do not systematically detect
obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs)
or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).
Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind
spots may not be detected or may no longer
be detected during the manoeuvre.
Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound
waves: pedestrians may not be detected.
Maintenance
Clean the bumpers and door mirrors and
the field of vision of the cameras regularly.
When washing your vehicle at high pressure,
direct the spray from at least 30 cm away from the radar, sensors and cameras.
Mats
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may interfere with the operation of
the speed limiter or cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
► ensure that the mat is secured correctly ,► never fit one mat on top of another.
Units of speed
Ensure that the units of speed displayed
on the instrument panel (mph or km/h) are
those for the country you are driving in.
If this is not the case, when the vehicle is
stationary, set the display to the required
units of speed so that it complies with what is
authorised locally.
In case of doubt, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Speed Limit recognition
and recommendation
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .




Using the camera located at the top of the
windscreen, this system detects the following
types of signs and displays the corresponding
information on the instrument panel:
– the maximum authorised speed,– no overtaking,– the end of the previous limitations / restrictions.

Speed Limit recognition
and recommendation
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids.



Using the camera located at the top of the
windscreen, this system detects the following
types of signs and displays the corresponding
information on the instrument panel:
– the maximum authorised speed,– no overtaking,– the end of the previous limitations / restrictions.
The system detects signs on the left-hand side
and right-hand side, high and low, as well as
overlapping signs.
The system only detects circular signs.
The units for the speed limit (mph or
km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
This should be taken into account so that you
observe the speed limit.
For the system to operate correctly when
you change country, the units for speed in
the instrument panel must be those for the
country you are driving in.
The automatic reading of road signs is a driving aid system and does not always
display speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over the display by the
system.
It is possible for the system to not display the
speed limit if it does not detect a speed limit
sign within a preset period.
The system is designed to detect signs that
conform to the Vienna Convention on road
signs.
When replacing the bulbs of the headlamps,
it is highly recommended that you fit genuine
replacement parts.
Using other bulbs could reduce system
performance.
Principles

Using the camera, located at the top of the
windscreen, this system detects and reads the
speed limit indications, overtaking prohibitions
and signs indicating the end of implementation of
the signs previously mentioned.
The sign is read by the camera and is displayed
in the instrument panel when it is passed (when
the vehicle is level with it).
Display on the touch screen
then on the instrument
panel
The display of signs takes place as per the
following two phases:
– All new road signs recognised are displayed on the touch screen as a pop-up for 40 seconds.– These signs are then displayed on the instrument panel.
The system can display two road signs (speed
limit and no overtaking/end of no overtaking)

76
Driving
simultaneously in the two dedicated areas of the
instrument panel.
If an additional road sign is detected, such
as a reduced speed limit for wet road sign, it
is displayed in an empty window below the
corresponding sign.
Additional signs are filtered as follows:
– Signs for snow or ice only appear if the outside temperature is below 3°C.– Signs for snow, rain or fog are only displayed if the wipers are activated while the outside
temperature is below 3°C.
– Signs concerning heavy goods vehicles are not displayed if they concern a vehicle weighing
less than 4 tonnes.
– Signs concerning farm equipment are not displayed.
Signs such as no overtaking go out after about
40 seconds on the instrument panel.
Activation/Deactivation
This function can be set using the MODE
button: in the “Traffic Sign” menu, select
“ON” or “OFF”.
For more information on Vehicle
configuration (MODE) , refer to the
corresponding section.
Operating limits
The system does not take account of reduced
speed limits, especially those imposed in the
following cases:
– Poor weather (rain, snow).– Atmospheric pollution.– Towing.– Driving with a space-saver type spare wheel or snow chains fitted.– Driving with a non-standard suspension kit.– Tyre repaired using the temporary puncture repair kit.– Young drivers.The system may not display the speed limit if it
does not detect a speed limit sign within a preset
period and in the following situations:
– Road signs that are obstructed, non-standard, damaged or bent.– Obsolete or incorrect maps.– Road incline causing the sign to be out of the camera field of vision (on a slope, for example). – Change in the vehicle load that causes the camera to tilt significantly (system operation may
temporarily be suspended to enable camera
self-calibration).
Speed limiter
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
System which prevents the vehicle
from exceeding the speed
programmed by the driver. The speed is selected when the vehicle is
stationary with the engine running or while
driving with at least 2
nd gear engaged.
The minimum speed to be programmed is 19
mph (30 km/h).
The vehicle responds to the driver's foot
pressure on the accelerator until resistance is felt
in the pedal, which signifies that the vehicle has
reached the programmed speed.
However, depressing the pedal beyond this point
of resistance to the floor allows you to exceed
the programmed speed. To resume use of the
speed limiter, gradually release the pressure
on the accelerator pedal and return below the
programmed speed.

example after depressing the brake or clutch
pedal):
► Gradually return to the chosen speed and press button 3.The indicator lamp comes on; the cruise control function is restored.
Cancelling the programmed
speed
When the vehicle stops, after the ignition is
switched off, the system no longer memorises
any speeds.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, the function
stops and the indicator lamp goes out.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Lane Departure Warning
System
Refer to the General recommendations on the
use of driving and manoeuvring aids .
System which detects the involuntary crossing of
longitudinal traffic lane markings on the ground
(solid or broken line).


A camera, fitted in the upper central part of the
windscreen, monitors the road and detects the
lane marking lines and the position of the vehicle
in relation to them.
With the speed of the vehicle above 37 mph (60
km/h), an alarm is triggered if there is a deviation
in direction.
This system is particularly useful on motorways
and main roads.
In case of windscreen damage, it is strongly
recommended to contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop for any replacement and
calibration of the camera.
Operation
The system starts automatically when moving
off.
A check of the operating conditions takes place: these two indicator
lamps come on in the instrument panel.
When these conditions are met, these two
indicator lamps go off. The system is activated.
If the operating conditions are not met, the
system is activated but is no longer effective.
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of these
two warning lamps in the instrument panel.
Operating conditions
Once engaged, the system is active only when
these operating conditions are met:
– The vehicle is moving forwards.– No malfunction of the vehicle is detected.– The speed of the vehicle is equal to or greater than approximately 37 mph (60 km/h).– The longitudinal marking of the traffic lanes is clearly visible.– The visibility conditions are clear.
– The trajectory is in a straight line (or in the case of bends, they are wide).– The field of vision is sufficiently clear (the safety distance with the vehicle ahead is
respected).
– In the event of a lane departure, the direction indicator corresponding to the direction (right or
left) of the departure has not been operated.
