Lighting and visibility
► With the ignition off, pull the lighting control
stalk toward you ("headlamp flash") to activate/
deactivate the function.
Manual guide-me-home lighting goes off
automatically after a period of time.
Welcome lighting
When the vehicle is unlocked in low light
conditions and the "Automatic illumination of
headlamps" function is activated, this system
automatically switches on:
–

On the outside, sidelamps, dipped beam
headlamps and door mirror spotlamps.
–


Inside, courtesy lamps and footwell lighting.
Door mirror spotlamps
These spotlamps facilitate access to the vehicle
by lighting the ground near the front doors.
The spotlamps come on automatically:
–
when the vehicle is unlocked.
–


when a door is opened.
–


when a request to locate the vehicle is
received from the remote control.
They also come on with the welcome lighting
and guide-me-home lighting functions.
They go off automatically after 30 seconds.
Automatic lighting systems - General
recommendations
The automatic lighting systems use a detection
camera, located at the top of the windscreen.
Operating limits
The system may be disrupted or not work
correctly:
–

When visibility conditions are poor
(e.g.

snowfall, heavy rain).
–

If the windscreen is dirty
, misted-up or
masked (e.g.
sticker) in front of the camera.
–

If the vehicle is facing highly reflective signs
or safety barrier reflectors.
The system is not able to detect:
–


Road users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians.
–


V

ehicles with hidden lighting (e.g. travelling
behind a safety barrier on the motorway).
–

V

ehicles at the top or bottom of a steep
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
Maintenance
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal surface of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
obstruct the camera.
Automatic headlamp dipping
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations for
automatic lighting systems.
With the ring of the lighting control stalk
in the
"AUTO" position and the function activated on
the touch screen, this system automatically
switches between dipped and main beam
headlamps, according to lighting and traffic
conditions, using a camera located at the top of
the windscreen.

127
Driving
6– Stationary vehicles (e.g. traffic jams,
breakdown).


– Vehicles crossing your lane.
– V ehicles driving in the opposite direction.
Situations where the driver must suspend the
system:


– Vehicles in a tight bend.
– When approaching a roundabout.

– When following a narrow vehicle.
Reactivate the system when conditions allow .
Situations in which the driver is prompted to
immediately resume control:
– Excessively sharp deceleration by the vehicle
in front of you.


– When a vehicle cuts in sharply between your
vehicle and the one in front.
Some vehicles on the road may be
poorly perceived or interpreted by the
camera and/or the radar (e.g.
truck), which
can lead to an incorrect evaluation of
distances and result in inappropriate
acceleration or braking of the vehicle.
Pay particular attention:
– When motorcycles are present and
when there are vehicles staggered across the
traffic lane.
–

When entering a tunnel or crossing a
bridge.
If any of the following malfunctions
occurs, do not use the system:
–

Following an impact on the windscreen
close to the camera or on the front bumper

.
–

If a brake lamp is not working.
If the vehicle has undergone any of the
following modifications, do not use the
system:
–

Carrying long objects on roof bars.
–


Towing.
–

Front end of the vehicle modified (for
example by adding long-range headlamps or
painting the front bumper).
–


Obstructed radar
.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, dashes are
displayed (orange) instead of the speed setting.
This warning lamp comes on, accompanied by a message and an
audible signal, to confirm the malfunction.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Lane positioning assist
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids .

144
Driving
Visual assistance

This supplements the audible signal, without
taking account of the vehicle's trajectory, by
displaying bars on the screen whose location
represents the distance between the obstacle
and the vehicle (white: more distant, orange:
close, red: very close).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"
symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
Supplementing the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the
vehicle is below 6 mph (10 km/h).
Front parking sensor operation is suspended if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in
forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected
or the vehicle speed exceeds 6
mph (10 km/h).
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) locates the obstacle relative to
the vehicle, whether in front of or behind it on
its path.
Deactivation/Activation
(Depending on country of sale)
Depending on version, using the centre console
button and/or in the ADAS application on the
touch screen.




► Press this button to activate or deactivate the
function.
The indicator lamp is lit when the function is
deactivated.
It is configured in the ADAS touch screen
application.
If the function is deactivated, this indicator
lamp lights up on the instrument panel.
The system status is saved when the ignition is
switched off.


The rear parking sensors are deactivated automatically if a trailer or bicycle carrier
is connected to a towing device installed in
accordance with the Manufacturer's
recommendations.
In this case, the outline of a trailer is displayed
at the rear of the image of the vehicle.
When starting the vehicle, the graphic
and audible aids are only available after
the touch screen has started up.
Operating limits
If the boot is heavily loaded, the vehicle may tilt,
affecting distance measurements.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction when
changing into reverse gear, these
warning lamps light up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal (short beep).
In the event of a malfunction, this
indicator lamp flashes for approximately
10 seconds when reverse gear is engaged.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Practical information
7► Replace the protective plug 2 into the
carrier 1.
►

Stow the towball in its bag to protect it from
knocks and dirt.
Maintenance
Correct operation is only possible if the towball
and its carrier are kept clean.
Before cleaning the vehicle with a high-pressure
jet wash, the towball must be removed and the
protective plug fitted to the carrier.
Work on the towing device
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Roof bars
As a safety measure and to avoid damaging the roof, it is essential to use
transverse roof bars approved for your
vehicle.
Observe the instructions on fitting and use
contained in the guide supplied with the roof
bars.
Maximum load distributed over the
transverse roof bars, for a loading height
not exceeding 40 cm (except bicycle carrier):
80 kg.
As this value may change, please verify the
maximum load quoted in the guide supplied
with the roof bars.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the speed
of the vehicle to the profile of the road to
avoid damaging the roof bars and the fixings
on the vehicle.
Be sure to refer to national legislation in order
to comply with the regulations for transporting
objects that are longer than the vehicle.
Direct fitting on roof

The transverse bars must only be fixed at the
four anchorage points located on the roof frame.
These points are concealed by the vehicle doors
when the doors are closed.
The roof bar fixings have a stud which must be
inserted into the opening of each anchorage
point.
Fitting on longitudinal bars
(SW)


The transverse bars must be fixed at the
markings located on the longitudinal bars.
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as close
as possible to the roof.
Secure the load firmly.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the effects of side winds and its
stability may be affected.
Regularly check the security and tight
fastening of the roof bars, at least before each
trip.
Remove the roof bars once they are no longer
needed.
