Access
Anti-intrusion security
When the vehicle is started, the system locks the
cab and load space doors automatically when
you reach approximately 12 mph (20 km/h).
If none of the doors is opened during the journey,
the locking remains active.
Activation/deactivation of the function
This function can be set using the MODE
button: select "ON" or "OFF" in the
"Autoclose" menu.
For more information on Vehicle
configuration (MODE) , refer to the
corresponding section.
Front doors

► Use the corresponding button on the remote
control or use the key in the driver's door lock to
unlock.
►

Pull the handle towards you.
Sliding side door
Take care not to block the guide space on the floor to allow the door to slide
correctly.
Opening
From outside
► Pull the handle towards you and then towards
the rear .
From inside





► To unlock and open, push the handle towards
the rear.
To keep the sliding side door open, open it completely to lock the device at the
base of the door.
Do not drive with the sliding side door
open.
Closing
From outside

71
Driving
6If 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 located 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 activating
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.
►

Pay constant 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
Using the engine brake is recommended to limit
the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances
are increased when towing a trailer.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more
susceptible to wind when towing.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys contain an electronic immobiliser
device.
This device locks the engine supply system. It
activates automatically when the key is removed
from the ignition.
When the ignition switch is turned on, a dialogue
is set up between the key and the electronic
immobiliser.
This warning lamp goes off after the key has been recognised, the ignition is
switched on and the engine can be started.
If the key is not recognised, the engine
cannot be started. Use another key and
have the faulty key checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Carefully note the key number. In case of
loss, the intervention of a PEUGEOT
dealer will be faster and more efficient if you
provide this number and the confidential card.
Do not make any modifications to the
electronic immobiliser system.
Operating the remote control, even in your
pocket, may cause the doors to be unlocked
accidentally.
The simultaneous use of other high-frequency
devices (mobile phones, home alarms, etc.),
may temporarily disturb the operation of the
remote control.
Except for reinitialisation, the remote control
cannot operate while the key is in the ignition
switch, even when the ignition is off.
Driving with the doors locked could make
it more difficult for the emergency
services to enter the vehicle in an emergency.
As a safety precaution (with children on
board), remove the key from the ignition when
leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.

72
Driving
When purchasing a second-hand
vehicle:
–

check that you are in possession of the
confidential card,
–


have the keys memorised by a PEUGEOT

dealer, to be sure that the keys in your
possession are the only ones that allow the
vehicle to be started.
Confidential card

It is given to you upon delivery of your vehicle
with the duplicate key.
It contains the identification code required for
any intervention by a PEUGEOT dealer on the
electronic engine immobiliser system. This code
is hidden by a film, which is to be removed only
when necessary.
Keep your card in a safe place, never inside the
vehicle.
When undertaking a long trip or journey
however, it is advisable to take this card with you
along with your personal papers.

Battery standby system
If your vehicle is to be out of use for an extended
period of time, such as during winter storage for
example, it is strongly recommended to put the
battery in standby mode in order to protect it and
optimise its life.


To put the battery in standby mode:
► Switch the engine off ( ST
OP position).


► Press the red button, then turn the key to the
BA TT position.
The battery goes into standby mode
approximately 7 minutes later.
This time is necessary to:

allow the user to leave the vehicle and lock the
doors using the remote control.
–


ensure that all vehicle electrical systems are
deactivated.
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:
►

Practical information
7Charging the traction
battery (Electric)
To charge, connect the vehicle to a domestic
charging unit or a fast public charger (superfast
charging).
For a full charge, follow the desired charging
procedure without interrupting it, until it ends
automatically.
To stop charging at any time, press the locking
button on the remote control for 5 seconds
and remove the charging nozzle. For superfast
charging, also refer to the fast public charger.
The display of information linked to the charging
is integrated into the rear view mirror. For more
information on the Display integrated into the
rear view mirror , refer to the corresponding
section.
As a safety measure, the engine will not start if the charging cable is plugged into
the vehicle's charging connector.
Cooling the traction battery
The cooling fan in the engine
compartment comes on during charging to
cool the on-board charger and the traction
battery.
Balancing the traction battery voltage
After carrying out a full charge (100%)
at least once per week, we recommend not
using the vehicle for about 4 hours.
This time allows the voltage to balance across
all of the traction battery's cells (ensuring a
level voltage across all of its cells).
This process helps keep the traction battery in
good condition and aids in the calculation of
its charging level.
Completely discharged traction
battery
T
o preserve the lifespan of the traction battery
and avoid damaging it, make sure that it is
never completely discharged (0%).
When the charge level drops to 15%, the
message "LOW POWER MODE" appears
on the display integrated into the rear view
mirror. If this message appears while driving,
avoid heavy acceleration and charge the
vehicle as soon as possible.
Long-term parking
Before parking the vehicle for an
extended period, carry out a full charge of the
traction battery.
Park the vehicle in a place where the
temperature will be between 0°C and 45°C
(parking in a place which will experience
extreme temperatures can damage the
traction battery).
Disconnect the cable from the (-) terminal of
the 12
V accessory battery.
Check the level of charge in the traction
battery periodically and charge it if necessary.
When parking the vehicle for more than one
month, keep the level of charge above 50%.
When parking the vehicle for a very long
period, charge the vehicle every 2 months.
Do not leave the charging cable connected.
Lack of use of the traction battery temporarily
affects its performance. At the end of the
parking period, carry out several charge/
discharge cycles to restore the normal
operation of the traction battery.
Precautions
Our electric vehicles have been developed in
accordance with the recommendations on the
maximum limits for electromagnetic fields, as
issued by the International Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP - 1998
Guidelines).
Wearers of pacemakers or equivalent
devices
Ask your doctor about what precautions you should take, or ask the manufacturer
of your implanted electro-medical device about
whether its operation is guaranteed in an
environment which complies with the ICNIRP
recommendations.
If in doubt
Accelerated charging: do not remain
inside or near the vehicle, or near the
charging cable or charging unit, even for a
short time.

► Insert the nozzle into the vehicle's charging
connector .
The indicator lamp in the flap comes on fixed to
indicate that the nozzle is locked.
When charging has started, the message
"CHARGING" appears on the display integrated
into the rear view mirror and the level of current
flowing into the traction battery is shown.
If this is not the case, charging has not started.
Depending on the message displayed in the rear
view mirror, proceed as follows:
–
"UNPLUG&PLUG": remove and then reinsert
the nozzle.
–
"WAITING x SEC": wait several seconds until
the message "DC CHARGE READY " appears.
Disconnection
Charging is complete when the message
"CHARGE FULL" is shown on the display
integrated into the rear view mirror.
Before disconnecting the nozzle from the
charging connector:
►

Switch off the current to the charging unit (if
applicable).
or
►


Press the locking button on the remote
control for 5 seconds.
The charging nozzle unlocks (confirmed when
the indicator lamp above the charging connector
goes out).
Accelerated charging, mode 3
When the nozzle is unlocked, the message
"PLUGGED IN" appears in the display integrated
into the rear view mirror.
►

Remove the charging nozzle within 30
seconds

.
If the charging nozzle is not removed
within 30 seconds, it automatically locks
again inside the flap and charging
recommences (the message " CHARGING"
appears on the display integrated into the rear
view mirror).
Superfast charging, mode 4
When the nozzle is unlocked, the message
"CHARGE STOP" appears on the display
integrated into the rear view mirror.
►

W
ait until the message "UNPLUG" appears,
then remove the charging nozzle.
Never try to remove the charging nozzle
when it is locked (indicator lamp on fixed)
- risk of irreversibly damaging the locking
mechanism and preventing charging of the
traction battery!
►

Replace the protective covers over the
charging connector and close the charging flap.
► Disconnect the cable from the charging unit
(if applicable).
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the
vehicle when braking.
The snow chains must be fitted only to the front wheels. They must never be
fitted to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
Observe the legislation in force in your
country on the use of snow chains and
the maximum authorised speed.
Only use chains that have been designed to be
fitted to the type of wheel on the vehicle:
