The connection of an electrical device not approved by PEUGEOT, such as a
USB charger, may adversely affect the
operation of vehicle electrical systems,
causing faults such as poor radio reception or
interference with displays in the screens.
USB sockets

These allow the connection of a portable device,
such as a iPod® type digital audio player, to
recharge the device.
The USB socket located at the front also allows a
smartphone to be connected by MirrorLink
TM,

applications on the smartphone can be used on
the touch screen.
You can manage these applications using the
