Travelling abroad
Vehicles equipped with the Peugeot
Matrix LED Technology 2.0 function:
If planning to use your vehicle in a country
that drives on the other side of the road,
deactivate the function to avoid dazzling
oncoming drivers.
Operation
Using a camera, the system detects the driving
conditions (brightness, lights from oncoming or
followed vehicles, road turns) and adapts the
beams of the main headlamps accordingly.
The modules that make up the main beams
switch on and off gradually, segment by
segment, depending on the driving conditions
detected.
Nominal main beam lighting is restored as soon
as the vehicle is no longer detected by the
system.
If the system is selected but the display
on the instrument panel and the alerts are
not available, the indicator lamp comes on in
grey.
Followed vehicle

When approaching a vehicle from behind, only
those lamp segments directed at the followed
vehicle go off, thereby creating a "tunnel" so as
not to dazzle its driver.
Oncoming vehicle

When an oncoming vehicle approaches, only
those lamp segments directed at this vehicle
go off, thereby creating a "tunnel" during the
duration of the approach.
Entering an illuminated area

Night Vision
This system identifies and signals the presence
of pedestrians and animals in the driver's field
of vision, in low exterior light conditions, using
an infrared camera located at the front of the
vehicle.
Select the "Night vision " display mode if you
want the infrared camera image to be displayed
constantly on the instrument panel. When the
conditions are met, an alert is triggered if there is
a risk of collision.
The permanent
display disappears upon
switching off the ignition or if the conditions are
not met.
This system is a driving aid system that cannot, under any circumstances,
replace the driver's assessment of night-time
visibility and traffic conditions.
In some cases, the differences in temperature
are insufficient and the system may not detect
all dangers or, conversely, it may give false
warnings (e.g. engines of lorries parked by
the side of the road).

visibility conditions.
If a pedestrian or an animal is detected, the
system alerts the driver up to 100 m before the
possible collision.
The image provided by the camera is displayed
in shades of grey in the instrument panel; warm
objects appear brighter than cold objects.
If pedestrians or animals are detected, they
appear in yellow frames.
If the system detects a risk of
collision with pedestrians or
animals, it triggers an alert: a symbol appears in the middle of the display window. The silhouette
of pedestrians or animals is framed in red.
If the "
Night vision " display page has not been
selected, the alert is triggered inside a temporary

Maintenance
recommendations
The infrared camera has a wash nozzle
connected to the vehicle’s front screenwash
system.
This wash nozzle does not operate every time
the front screenwash system is used. Its wash
frequency is preset in the system.
Regularly check that the infrared camera is
clean.
In bad weather, or in wintry conditions, ensure
that the infrared camera is not covered with mud,
ice or snow.
Malfunction
If the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp comes on in orange on the
instrument panel, accompanied by the display of
a message.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Wiper control stalk
Before operating the wipers in wintry
conditions, clear any snow, ice or frost
from the windscreen and around the wiper
arms and blades.
Do not operate the wipers on a dry
windscreen. In extremely hot or cold
weather, check that the wiper blades are not
stuck to the windscreen before operating the
wipers.
After using an automatic car wash, you may temporarily notice abnormal noises CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Switching off
Manual
After the ignition has been switched off,
the wipers may move slightly at the foot
of the windscreen.
In position 1 or 2, the wiping frequency is
automatically reduced when the speed of
the vehicle drops below 3
mph (5 km/h).
When the speed is above 6
mph (10 km/h)
again, the wiping frequency returns to the
original frequency (fast or normal).
Single wipe
If the wiper control stalk is:
► In the INT or AUTO position, pull the stalk
briefly towards you then release it.
►

In the
0 position, press briefly on the stalk
then release it.
Pressing and holding triggers continuous wiping
at the normal wiping speed.
Windscreen wash
► Pull the wiper control stalk towards you and
hold.
A
final wiping cycle is performed when
screenwashing ends.
The windscreen wash jets are incorporated into the tip of each wiper
arm.
An additional jet is installed below the
midpoint of the arm on the driver's side.
Screenwash fluid is sprayed along the length
of the wiper blade. This improves visibility and
reduces screenwash fluid consumption.
With automatic air conditioning, any
action on the screenwash control results
in temporary closure of the air intake to
protect the passenger compartment from any
odour.
To avoid damaging the wiper blades, do not operate the screenwash if the
screenwash reservoir is empty.
Only operate the screenwash if there is no
risk of the fluid freezing on the windscreen
and hindering visibility. During the winter
period, use "very cold climate" rated products.
Never top up with water.
An additional jet is fitted above the number plate to clean the reversing camera (depending on
version).
