Hands-free sliding side
door(s)
Opening/Closing

With a movement of your foot while keeping the
remote control on your person in the recognition
zone A, the system unlocks and opens the
sliding side door or closes and locks it.
The remote control must be located at the rear
of the vehicle, at least about 30 cm but no more
than about 2 m from the vehicle.
The automatic locking after closing the door can be programmed in the vehicle
configuration menu.
Before making the movement with your
foot, ensure that you are steady and well
Safety/Obstacle detection
with electric door(s)


The obstacle detection system is triggered when
the moving door encounters an obstacle with a
certain level of physical resistance. If an obstacle
is detected:
–

while the door is closing, the door stops then
opens fully

.
–

while the door is opening, the door stops then
closes.
–


twice in succession during a movement of the
door

, the door will no longer close electrically
(uninitialisation).
On a steep slope: a safety system slows down
the movement of the door.
In all cases, wait a few seconds before operating
the door (closing or opening).
Close the door manually for safety reasons.
Then reinitialise the door.
Reinitialising electric doors
If electrical operations no longer work:
► Fully close the door(s) manually
.►

Fully open the door(s)
electrically
.
►
Close the door(s)
electrically
.
On completion of this procedure, electric
operation of the doors is restored.
However, if a problem persists following this
procedure, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
On a steep slope

It is possible to open and close the doors
electrically on slopes of up to a 20% gradient.
If the vehicle is on a slope, with the front of the
vehicle facing up the slope, open the door with
care. The door may open more quickly due to
the incline.
On a steep slope, guide the side door manually
to help it to close.


If your vehicle is on a slope, with the front of the
vehicle facing down the slope, the door may not
stay open and may close violently with the risk
of injury.
In the case of a steep slope, the door
may be driven by its own weight and as a
consequence may open or close violently.
There would not be time for action at the
electric controls to take effect.
There would not be time for the obstacle
detection system to react.
Take care not to leave the vehicle on a
steep slope with the door(s) open without
supervision. If this advice is not followed,
injuries or damage may occur if a person or
an object is trapped or caught.

On the floor, behind the front seats, a vertical
partition protects the driver and front passengers
against the risk of load movement.
Steel or glazed partitions separate the loading
area from the cab.
Recommendations on
loading
The weight of the load must comply with the Gross Train Weight (GTW).
For more information on Engine technical
data and towed loads , refer to the
corresponding section.
If you are using a carrying system (roof
bars/roof rack), comply with the
maximum loads associated with this system.
For more information on Roof bars/Roof
rack , refer to the corresponding section.
Make sure that the size, shape and
volume of the loads carried are
compatible with the highway code and safety
regulations and do not impair the driver’s field
of vision.
The load must be evenly distributed in the loading area so as not to interfere
with driving the vehicle.
Place the load close to the side panels, or
even push it against the side panels between
the wheel arches.
However, it is recommended that heavy
objects are placed as close to the cab as
possible as a precaution in case of sharp
braking.
Firmly secure all parts of the load using
the stowing rings on the floor of the
loading area.
For more information on the Interior
fittingsand in particular on the stowing rings,
refer to the corresponding section.
To avoid the risk of injury or accident, the load must be made stable so that it
cannot slide, tip over, fall or be thrown. To do
this, use only retaining straps that conform to
current standards (DIN for example).
For more information on putting straps in
place, refer to the manufacturer’s user guide.
There must not be any empty space between
the components of the load.
To prevent the load sliding, there must not be
any empty space between the load and the
panels of the vehicle.
As well as the straps, optimise the stability
of the load with stable handling equipment
(wedges, rigid blocks of wood or padding).
When washing your vehicle, never clean
the inside directly using a water jet.
Seating area fittings

High load retaining net
This allows the use of the entire loading capacity,
up to the roof:
–

behind the front seats in row 1, when the rear
seats (and bench seats) in rows 2 and 3 are
folded or removed,
–


behind the rear seats (and bench seats) in row
2, when the rear seats (and bench seats) in row
3 are folded or removed.

Ease of use and comfort

► Push the control then tip the table assembly
downward until it clicks into place.
Before stowing the table tops, check that
they are clear. Before tipping the
assembly down, check that the two table tops
have clicked home in the low position and that
there is nothing in the cup holder area (such
as a can or pen).
Cup holders
Two cups or cans and small objects (such as
a credit card, portable ashtray or pen) can be
carried in the middle of the unfolded table.
Liquids carried in an open vessel (a cup
or mug) could be spilt, presenting a risk.
Be careful.
Never use the table in this position while the
vehicle is being driven.

The table has a central storage space covered
by a lid. When deployed, this device becomes
a table with two table tops on which you can
place objects. The central part has two cup/
can holders and can also be used to hold small
objects (e.g. credit card, pen).
The assembly is mounted on a runner allowing it
to be positioned either in row 2 or row 3.
Storage

► Slide back the cover for access to 1 1 litres of
storage space.
The storage space can only support a maximum weight of 3 kg; do not exceed
this maximum load in use.
Moving forward or backward

► Lift the control (without going beyond the
point of resistance) and slide the assembly
forwards or backwards.
►

Release the control when it is in the desired
position.
►


Check that the table is secured on the runner
.
If this is not the case, move the assembly slightly
to the next notch on the runner.
You can move the table in both the open and stowed position. However, to ensure
safety, it is advised that you handle the
assembly in the stowed position.
For the table to run smoothly, ensure that
no objects are blocking the space used
by the runner on the floor.
Before manoeuvring the table, check that
there is nothing on the table.
Unfolding

► Operate the control on the top and pull the
table assembly up until it clicks into place.
►

Pull each table top fully up then pivot them on
each side into the horizontal position.
Folding
► Raise each table top, going beyond the point
of resistance, to the vertical position.
►

Push each table top down into its housing
until it clicks into place.

Ease of use and comfort

When stowing the table tops, never place
your hand inside the slide area - risk of
trapping your fingers! Use the handle
provided.
Heating and Ventilation
Advice
Using the ventilation and air
conditioning system
► To ensure that air is distributed evenly,
keep the external air intake grilles at the base
of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the
air outlets and the air extractor in the boot
free from obstructions.
► Do not cover the sunshine sensor located
on the dashboard; this sensor is used to
regulate the automatic air conditioning
system.
► Operate the air conditioning system for at
least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to
keep it in perfect working order.
► If the system does not produce cold air,
switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
► Check that the control is in the upper position
(locking mechanism armed). If not, lift this control
fully to arm the mechanism.
►

Place the front of the table on the runner
.
►

T
aking care not to interfere with the control,
tip the assembly towards the rear until you hear
it lock into place.
►

Check that the assembly is fully locked into
the runner

. If not, slide the assembly gently along
the runner until it meets the next notch.
Check that the table is fully locked into
the runner - risk of injury in the event of
an accident or sudden braking.
►

Release the control until the guide locks into
the runner

.
Be careful of passengers' feet when
manoeuvring the assembly.
Storage off the runner
If removing the table from the vehicle for
storage, ensure that it is placed in a
clean area, in order to avoid introducing any
foreign bodies into the mechanisms.
The table must be placed outside the vehicle,
on a flat and level surface, resting on the
guide so as not to damage visible parts.
Caution, when out of the vehicle, the
table leans to the right or left when
placed on a surface.


Incorrect use of the table can cause
serious injury.
Never use the table in the open or deployed
position while the vehicle is in motion. In the
event of sudden braking, any object placed on
the table can become a projectile.
Ensure that the table is correctly stowed in
the low position before setting off.
Never use the table tops as seats or lean on
them.
A label attached to the side of the table
serves as a reminder of this.
Never place hot objects such as
saucepans or frying pans on the table
- risk of damaging the surface and starting a
fire!
When the table is deployed, each table
top can support a maximum of 10 kg. If
you exceed the maximum weight limit, you
risk damaging part or all of the table.
Never lift the table when it is between
individual seats; you risk damaging the table
tops.


Before moving the table or an individual
seat forwards or backwards, make sure
that the seat's backrest is upright and the
table is stowed.

5Trailer stability assist (TSA)
When towing, this system reduces the risk of the
vehicle or trailer snaking.
Operation
The system is activated automatically when the
ignition is switched on.
The electronic stability control system (ESC)
must not have any faults.
The vehicle speed must be between 37 and 99
mph (60 and 160 km/h).
If the system detects that the trailer is
snaking, it applies the brakes to stabilise
the trailer and reduces engine power, if
necessary, to slow the vehicle (indicated by the
flashing of this warning lamp on the instrument
panel and the brake lamps coming on).
For information on weights and towed loads,
refer to the Engine technical data and towed
loads section or your vehicle’s registration
certificate.
To ensure safe driving with a Towing device,
refer to the corresponding section.
Malfunction
If a fault occurs, this warning lamp lights
up on the instrument panel, accompanied
by a message and an audible signal.
To continue towing a trailer, reduce speed and
drive carefully!
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The trailer stability control system provides an extra safety feature under
normal driving conditions, when following the
recommendations for use of trailers and
current legislation in force in your country. It
must not encourage the driver to take extra
risks, such as using a trailer in unsuitable
conditions of operation (e.g.
excessive load,
exceeded nose weight, worn or under-inflated
tyres, faulty braking system) or driving at
excessive speed.
In certain cases, the system may not detect
trailer snaking, particularly with a light trailer.
When driving on slippery or poor surfaces, the
system may not be able to prevent sudden
trailer snaking.
Advanced Grip Control
(Depending on version)
A special, patented traction control system,
which improves driveability on snow, mud and
sand.
This system, optimised for operation in a range
of conditions, enables you to manoeuvre in most
slippery conditions (encountered during normal
passenger car use).
When combined with all-season Peak Mountain
Snow Flake tyres, this system offers a
compromise between safety, grip and driveability.
The accelerator pedal should be pressed
sufficiently to allow the system to harness 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, accompanied by the display of a
message to confirm your choice.
Operating modes



Standard (ESC)
This mode is calibrated for a low level of wheel spin, based on the different levels
of grip normally encountered on the road.
Whenever the ignition is switched off, the
system automatically resets to this mode.

Lateral airbags
Use only approved seat covers
compatible with the deployment of these
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backrests (e.g.
clothing) as this could cause
injuries to the chest or arm when the airbag is
deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.
The vehicle's front door panels include side
impact sensors.
A damaged door or any unauthorised or
incorrectly executed work (modification or
repair) on the front doors or their interior trim
could compromise the operation of these
sensors - risk of malfunction of the lateral
airbags!
All work must be carried out only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Active, Allure, Business VIP
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof,
as this could cause head injuries when the
curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the grab handles installed on
the roof, as these help to secure the curtain
airbags.
Child seats
The legislation on carrying children is specific to each country. Refer to the
legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please observe the
following recommendations:
–

In accordance with European regulations, all
children under the age of 12 or less than one
and a half metres tall must travel in approved
child seats suited to their weight , on seats
fitted with a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings.
–


Statistically
, the safest seats in your
vehicle for carrying children are the rear
seats.
–

A

child weighing less than 9 kg must travel
in the "rearward facing" position both in the
front and in the rear.
It is recommended that children travel
on the rear seats of the vehicle:
–

"rearward facing" up to the age of 3,
–

"forward facing" over the age of 3.
Make sure that the seat belt is correctly
positioned and tightened.
For child seats with a support leg, ensure that
the support leg is in firm and steady contact
with the floor.
Advice
An incorrectly installed child seat compromises the child's safety in the
event of an accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat, as this could
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
harness of child seats, keeping the slack
relative to the child's body to a minimum,
even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat
belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened
correctly on the child seat and that it secures
the child seat firmly on the seat of the vehicle.
If the passenger seat is adjustable, move it
forwards if necessary.
Remove the head restraint before
installing a child seat with a backrest on a
passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from being
thrown around the vehicle in the event of
sharp braking. Refit the head restraint once
the child seat has been removed.
