Automatic illumination of 
headlamps
The sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps 
switch on automatically if the light is poor or 
during operation of the windscreen wipers. 
They switch off again as soon as the ambient 
light becomes bright enough or the windscreen 
wipers stop.
This function is not compatible with daytime 
running lamps.In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may 
detect sufficient light.
As a result, the lighting will not come on 
automatically. If necessary, you must 
switch on the dipped beam headlamps 
manually.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor located 
on the windscreen behind the rear view 
mirror. It is used for automatic illumination 
of the headlamps and for the automatic 
rain sensitive wipers.
Activation
F Turn the ring to the AUTO position. The activation of the 
function is accompanied by a 
message on the screen.
Deactivation
F Turn the ring for wards or rear wards. The deactivation of the function is accompanied 
by a message on the screen.

when the manual lighting control stalk is used.
In the event of a malfunction of 
the sunshine sensor , the lamps 
come on, accompanied by the 
illumination of the Ser vice warning 
lamp, an audible signal and a 
message on the screen.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
LED daytime running lamps
On starting the vehicle, in daylight the daytime 
running lamps come on automatically.
If the sidelamps, dipped or main headlamps 
are switched on manually or automatically, the 
daytime running lamps switch off.
Programming
For countries where exterior lighting by day is 
not a legal requirement, you can activate or 
deactivate the function via the configuration 
menu.
Guide-me-home lighting
Keeping the dipped beam headlamps on 
temporarily after switching the ignition off makes 
the driver's exit easier when the light is poor.

Operation
The warning lamp flashes when the 
ASR or ESC is triggered.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (moving a vehicle that 
is bogged down in mud, stuck in snow, on loose 
soil, etc.), it may prove useful to deactivate the 
ASR and ESC systems, so that the wheels can 
spin and regain grip.F
 
P
 ress the button or turn the 
knob to the ESC OFF position 
(depending on version).
The LED lights up: the ASR and ESC systems 
are deactivated.
They reactivate again:
-
 
a
 utomatically above 31   mph (50   km/h),
If there is a difference between the path followed 
by the vehicle and that required by the driver, the 
ESC system automatically acts on the brake of 
one or more wheels and on the engine to return 
the vehicle to the required path.
- manually when you press the button again or turn the knob 
to this position (depending on 
ve r s i o n).
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of the 
systems, the warning lamp and the 
LED come on, accompanied by an 
audible signal and a message on the 
screen.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked.
The warning lamp may also come on if the 
tyres are under-inflated. Check the pressure of 
each tyre.
Although the ASR /ESC systems help to 
improve safety in normal driving, they 
should not encourage the driver to take 
extra risks or drive at high speed.
The correct operation of these systems 
is ensured if the recommendations of the 
manufacturer regarding the wheels (tyres 
and rims), the braking components, the 
electronic components and the fitting and 
repair procedures are observed.
After an impact, have these systems 
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Grip control
Special patented traction control system which 
improves traction 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 car use).
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 to confirm your choice.

stop the vehicle and switch off 
the engine as soon as possible.
New vehicle
Do not pull a trailer before having driven at 
least 620
  miles (1,000   kilometres).
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of 
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the 
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height 
of your vehicle. For more information on adjusting 
the Headlamp beam
, refer to the 
corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be 
deactivated automatically to avoid the 
audible signal if a genuine PEUGEOT 
towbar is used.

F Hold this button down.
Reinitialisation is confirmed by a high-pitched 
audible signal.
A low-pitched audible signal indicates that 
the reinitialisation operation has not been 
successful.
The new pressure parameters saved are 
treated as reference values by the system.The under-inflation alert can only be relied 
on if the reinitialisation of the system has 
been done with the pressures in the four 
tyres correctly adjusted.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be 
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow 
chains.
Operating fault
After doing anything to the system, the 
pressures of the four tyres must be 
checked and the system reinitialised.
The flashing and then constant illumination of 
the under-inflation warning lamp accompanied 
by illumination of the Ser vice warning lamp 
indicates a fault in the system.
In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the 
tyres is no longer provided.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
"LIMIT" speed limiter
System preventing the vehicle 
from exceeding the speed setting 
programmed by the driver. 1.
Speed limiter mode Selection/Off.
2. Decreases the set value.
3. Increases the set value.
4. Speed limiter On/Pause.
The speed setting is selected with the engine 
running, regardless of being stationary or 
in motion. The minimum speed that can be 
programmed is at least 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, pressing the pedal beyond this point 
of resistance to the floor permits exceeding 
of the programmed speed. To resume use of 
the limiter, simply reduce the pressure on the 
accelerator pedal gradually and return to a 
speed below the programmed speed.
Setting and operation of the system can be 
done with the engine running, regardless of 
being stationary or in motion.

It flashes:
-  a fter forcing the accelerator pedal past the 
point of resistance,
-
 
w
 hen the limiter cannot prevent the speed 
of the vehicle increasing, because of the 
profile of the road or when going down a 
steep hill,
-
 
u
 nder sharp acceleration.
Switching the funtion off
F Place the knob at the 0 position or switch off the ignition to switch the function off.
The last programmed speed remains in the 
memory.
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared, then 
replaced by three dashes.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked.
Under no circumstances can the speed 
limiter replace the need to obser ve speed 
limits, nor can it replace the need for 
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Always pay attention to the profile of the 
road and sharp acceleration and stay in 
complete control of your vehicle.
