In lighting off and sidelamps modes, the driver
can switch on the main beam headlamps
temporarily ("headlamp flash") by pulling on the
stalk.
Display
Illumination of the corresponding indicator lamp
in the instrument panel confirms that the lighting
selected is on.
Foglamps
In good or rainy weather, by both day
and night, 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.
Rear foglamp
It only works if the dipped or main beam
headlamps are on.


► Rotate the ring forwards/backwards to turn
it on/off.
When the lighting is switched off automatically
("
AUTO" position), the foglamp is switched off.
Front foglamps/Rear
foglamps
They operate with the sidelamps, dipped or main beam headlamps on.


► Rotate the ring forwards:
• once to switch on the front foglamps,
•

a second time to switch on the rear
foglamps.
►


Rotate
the ring backwards:
•

once to switch off the rear foglamps,
•


a second time to switch off the front
foglamps.
If the lighting is switched off automatically (with
AUT

O model) or the dipped beam headlamps
are switched off manually, the foglamps and
sidelamps remain on.
►

Rotate the ring backwards to switch the
foglamps off; the sidelamps will then switch off.
Never look too closely at the luminous
beam of “Full LED” headlamps: risk of
serious eye injury.
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal surface of the glass
of the headlamps and rear lamps is normal; it
disappears after the lamps have been on for a
few minutes.
Travelling abroad
Halogen headlamps
If using your vehicle in a country that drives
on the other side of the road to the one in
which your vehicle was sold, the headlamps
must be adjusted to avoid dazzling oncoming
drivers.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
LED lamps
The design of the front LED headlamps
allows driving without modification in a
country that drives on the other side of the
road to the country in which your vehicle was
sold.
Switching off the lights when the
ignition is switched off
On switching off the ignition, all of the lights
turn off immediately, except for dipped
beam if automatic guide-me-home lighting is
activated.

Driving
Starting with the key
The parking brake must be applied.
► With a manual gearbox in neutral, fully
depress the clutch pedal.
► With an automatic gearbox in mode P or N,
fully depress the brake pedal.
► Insert the key into the ignition switch.
– The system recognises the starting code.
► Unlock the steering column by simultaneously
turning the steering wheel and the key.
In some cases, you may have to apply
some force to turn the wheels (if the
wheels are turned against a kerb, for
example).
► With a petrol engine, operate the starter
motor by turning the key to position 3 without
pressing the accelerator pedal, until the engine
starts. As soon as the engine starts, release the
key.
► With a Diesel engine, turn the key to position
2, ignition on, to operate the engine preheating
system.
► Wait until this warning lamp goes off in
the instrument panel, then turn the key to
position 3 without pressing the accelerator pedal,
to operate the starter motor until the engine
starts. As soon as the engine starts, release the
key.
If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight (at the point where it
joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine PEUGEOT towing device is
used, the rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the audible
signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant
temperature to increase. The maximum towable
load depends on the gradient and the exterior temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not
increase with engine speed.
►

Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to
limit the amount of heating produced.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as
possible.
Brakes
Braking distances are increased when towing a
trailer. To avoid overheating the brakes, the use
of engine braking is recommended.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more
susceptible to wind when towing.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip which has a
special code. When the ignition is switched on,
this code must be recognised in order for starting
to be possible.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks the
engine management system a few minutes after
the ignition is switched off, and prevents the
engine being started by anyone who does not
have the key.
In the event of a fault, you are informed
by illumination of this warning lamp, an
audible signal and a message in the screen.In
this case, your vehicle will not start; contact a
PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.
Keep safely, away from your vehicle, the
label attached to the keys given to you
when you purchased your vehicle.

Wait a few seconds before operating the
starter motor again. If the engine does not
start after several attempts, do not keep
trying: you risk damaging the starter motor
and the engine.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In mild conditions, do not leave the
engine to warm up while stationary, but
move off straight away and drive at moderate
speed.
Never leave the engine running in an
enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines emit
toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!
In very severe wintry conditions (temperature
below -23°C), the engine should be left to
idle for 4 minutes before moving off to ensure
the correct operation and service life of the
mechanical parts of your vehicle, engine and
gearbox.
