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.

switched on or the system detects dense fog.
When the fog lamps are switched off or the
vehicle leaves the area of dense fog, the function
is automatically reactivated.
This indicator lamp goes out when the function is deactivated.
Pause
If the situation requires a change of headlamp
beam, the driver can take over at any time.
► A "headlamp flash" pauses the
function and the system changes to
"automatic illumination of headlamps" mode:
–

if the "AUT
O" and "Dipped beam" indicator
lamps were on, the system changes to main
beam,
–

if the "AUT
O" and "Main beam" indicator
lamps were on, the system changes to dipped
beam.
To reactivate the system, flash the headlamps
again.
The system may suffer interference or not work correctly:
–

under conditions of poor visibility (snow
,
heavy rain, etc.),
– if the windscreen in front of the camera is
dirty , misted or obscured (for example, by a
sticker, etc.),
–

if the vehicle is facing highly reflective
signs.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:
–


road users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians,
–


vehicles whose lighting is obscured (for
example: vehicles running behind a safety
barrier on a motorway),
–


vehicles at the top or bottom of a steep
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the
camera.
The internal surface of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
obstruct the detection camera.

► To return the wiper blades to their initial
position, switch on the ignition and operate the
wiper control stalk.
Changing a wiper blade
Removing/refitting at the front

► Carry out these wiper blade replacement
operations from the driver's side.
► Starting with the wiper blade farthest from
you, hold each arm by the rigid section and raise
it as far as possible.
Take care not to hold the arms at the jet locations.
Do not touch the wiper blades. Risk of
irreparable deformation.
Do not release them while moving them. Risk
of damaging the windscreen!
On vehicles fitted with automatic air
conditioning, any action on the
screenwash control temporarily closes the air
intake, to avoid odours inside the passenger
compartment.
The windscreen wash jets are incorporated into the tip of each wiper
arm.
Screenwash fluid is sprayed along the length
of the wiper blade. This improves visibility and
reduces screenwash fluid consumption.
In some cases, depending on the contents
or colour of the fluid and on the exterior
brightness, the liquid spray may be barely
noticeable.
To avoid damaging the wiper blades, do not operate the windscreen washer if the
windscreen washer reservoir is empty.
Only operate the windscreen washer if
there is no risk of the fluid freezing on the
windscreen and hindering visibility. Always
use windscreen washer fluid suitable for low
temperatures during the winter period.
Never top up with water.
