As a safety measure, never leave the vehicle, even for a short time, without
taking the Keyless Entry and Start system’s
electronic key with you.
Be aware of the risk of theft of the vehicle if
the key is present in one of the defined areas
while the vehicle is unlocked.
In order to preserve the battery in the
electronic key and the vehicle's battery:
–

The unlocking
on approach function
(zone
C) automatically switches to hibernation
mode after several days (approximately one
week) without being used. To unlock the
vehicle, use the remote control or press on
the driver’s door handle. The next time the
vehicle is started, the automatic unlocking
and locking functions will be reactivated.
–

If the welcome lighting is triggered
several times in succession without the
vehicle subsequently being started, it will be
deactivated.
–


All "hands-free" functions switch to
hibernation mode after 21 days without being
used.

To restore these functions, unlock the
vehicle using the remote control and start the
engine.
Electrical interference
The electronic key may not work if it is
close to an electronic device (e.g.
mobile
telephone (switched on or on standby), laptop
computer, strong magnetic fields). If this
occurs, move the electronic key away from
the electronic device.

functionality.
Hands-free function (Hands-
Free Tailgate Access)
With the electronic key on your person, this
function allows the motorised tailgate to be
opened, closed or stopped via a "kicking"
movement under the rear bumper.
The "Handsfree Trunk Opening" function is configured in the Settings
> Vehicle
touch screen application.
Ensure that you are steady on your feet
before performing the "kicking"
movement.
Take care not to touch the exhaust system
which may be hot - risk of burns!
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles
The function is not available when the
vehicle is connected.


► Position yourself behind the vehicle by the
number plate and perform a "kicking" movement
in the "
OK" detection zone.
The "kicking" movement must be given forwards,
smoothly, not too fast and with a vertical
movement from low to high. Raise the foot
sufficiently and remove it immediately.
Acknowledgement of the "kicking" movement
is confirmed by the lighting of the direction
indicators.
"Sideward kicking" movements do not
work. If the "kicking" movement has not
been detected, wait at least 2 seconds before
repeating the movement.
Do not perform repetitive "kicking"
movements.
If the motorised tailgate has not started to open
or close, check that:
–

the function is activated.
–


the electronic key is on your person, outside
the vehicle in the rear recognition area.
–


the "kicking" movement was performed in the
detection zone, close enough to the bumper

.
–

the foot was removed from the bumper quickly
enough.
When the vehicle is locked, the request
to open the tailgate with this function
unlocks the vehicle, or only the tailgate if
selective unlocking is activated, prior to the
opening of the tailgate.
Closing the tailgate with the "Hands-Free
Tailgate Access" function enables you to lock
the vehicle.
Recommendations on the hands-free
function (Hands-Free Tailgate Access)

avoid damaging the accessory.
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 symbols determine the type of use of a USB socket:
Power supply and recharging.
Likewise, plus exchange of multimedia
data with the audio system.
Likewise, plus use of smartphone
applications with the touch screen.




USB sockets allow the connection of a portable
device.
The USB socket located at the front of the centre console also allows a smartphone to be connected by Android
Auto
® or CarPlay®, enabling certain smartphone
applications to be used on the touch screen.
For best results, use a cable made or approved
by the device manufacturer.
These applications can be managed using the
steering-mounted controls or the audio system
controls.
Smartphone storage/USB socket

► Open the front armrest to access the cable
passage.
►

Open the cable passage shutter
.
►

Put the device to be connected with its USB
cable in the storage compartment.
►


Route the cable through the cable passage in
the front armrest.
►


Connect the cable to the USB socket to
charge the device.
When the USB socket is used, the
portable device charges automatically.
While charging, a message is displayed if the
power drawn by the portable device exceeds
the current supplied by the vehicle.
For more information about how to use this
equipment, refer to the sections describing
the audio and telematics systems.
Wireless smartphone
charger




This system allows wireless charging of a
portable device such as a smartphone, using the
magnetic induction principle, in accordance with
the Qi 1.1 standard.
The portable device to be charged must be
compatible with the Qi standard, either by design
or by using a compatible holder or shell.
A mat can also be used provided that it is
approved by the Manufacturer.
The charging area is identified by the Qi symbol.
The charger works with the engine running and
with the Stop & Start system in STOP mode. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Ease of use and comfort
Charging is managed by the smartphone.
With the Keyless Entry and Start system, the
charger’s operation may be briefly disrupted
when a door is opened or the ignition is switched
off.
Charging
► With the charging area clear, place a device
in its centre.


When the portable device is detected, the
charger’s indicator lamp lights up green. It
remains lit for the whole time that the battery is
being charged.
The system is not designed to charge multiple devices simultaneously.
Do not leave metal objects (e.g. coins,
keys, vehicle remote control) in the
charging area while a device is being charged
- Risk of overheating or interrupting the
charging!
When using applications for a long time
in combination with wireless charging,
some smartphones may switch to thermal
safety and cause some functions to stop.
Checking operation

Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle
when braking.
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 relating to the use of snow
chains and maximum authorised speeds.
Only use chains that have been designed for the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
Original tyre size Maximum link size 215/65 R17 9 mm
225/55 R18 9 mm
Original tyre size Maximum link size
205/55 R19 9 mm
245/40 R20 -
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Installation tips
► To fit the snow chains during a journey, stop
the vehicle on a flat surface at the side of the
road.
►

Apply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks under the wheels to prevent
movement of the vehicle.
►


Fit the snow chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer

.
►

Move off gently and drive for a few moments,
without exceeding 31

mph (50 km/h).
►

Stop the vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
It is strongly recommended that you
practise fitting the snow chains on a level
and dry surface before setting off.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads that have been cleared of snow to avoid
damaging the vehicle's tyres and the road
surface. If the vehicle is fitted with alloy
wheels, check that no part of the chain or its
fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.
Energy economy mode
This system manages the duration of use of
certain functions, in order to conserve a sufficient
level of charge in the battery with the ignition off.
After switching off the engine and for a maximum
cumulative period of around 30 minutes, you can
continue to use functions such as the audio and
telematics system, dipped beam headlamps or
courtesy lamps.
Selecting the mode
A confirmation message is displayed when
energy economy mode is entered, and the active
functions are placed on standby.
If a telephone call is in progress at the
time, it will be maintained for around 10
minutes via the audio system’s hands-free
system.
Exiting the mode
These functions are automatically reactivated the
next time the vehicle is used.
To restore the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let it run:
–

For less than 10 minutes, to use the
equipment for approximately 5 minutes.
–


For more than 10 minutes, to use the
equipment for approximately 30 minutes.
Let the engine run for the specified duration to
ensure that the battery charge is sufficient. CarM an uals 2 .c o m
