A fault with a lamp is signalled by the permanent illumination of this warning
lamp, accompanied by the display of a message
and an audible signal.
Rear foglamps
They only work if the dipped or main beam headlamps are on.


► Rotate the ring forwards/backwards to turn
them on/off.
When the lighting is switched off automatically
("
AUTO" position) the foglamps and the dipped
beam headlamps remain on.
When the rear foglamps are activated, the "fog"
mode of the Adaptive Frontlight System function
can be activated at the front.
For more information on the Adaptive Frontlight
System , refer to the corresponding section.
Switching on the foglamps is prohibited
in clear weather or in rain, both day and
night. In these situations, the power of their
beams may dazzle other drivers. They must
only be used in fog or falling snow (rules may
vary depending on country).
Do not forget to switch off the foglamps when
they are no longer necessary.
Switching off of the lighting when the
ignition is switched off
When the ignition is switched off, all of the
lamps turn off immediately, except for the
dipped beam headlamps if automatic guide-
me-home lighting is activated.
Switching on the lamps after
switching off the ignition
To reactivate the lighting control, rotate the
ring to the "AUTO" position, then to the
desired position.
If the driver's door is opened, a temporary
audible signal warns the driver that the lamps
are on.
They will go off automatically after a period
of time that depends on the level of charge in
the battery (entering energy economy mode).
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear

Lighting and visibility
Automatic illumination of lamps
With the lighting control stalk in the “ AUTO”
position and if a low level of exterior brightness
is detected by the rain/sunshine sensor, the
sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are
switched on automatically, without any action on
the part of the driver. They may also come on if
rain is detected, at the same time as automatic
operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a sufficient
level or after the windscreen wipers are switched
off, the lamps are switched off automatically.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction of the rain/
sunshine sensor, the vehicle’s lamps
come on and this warning lamp is displayed on
the instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and/or the display of a message.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Do not cover the rain/sunshine sensor
located at the top centre of the
windscreen behind the interior rear view
mirror; the associated functions would no
longer be controlled.
In fog or snow, the rain/sunshine sensor
may detect sufficient light. For this
reason, the lighting will not come on
automatically.
The inner surface of the windscreen may become misted up and affect the proper
operation of the rain/sunshine sensor.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Guide-me-home and
welcome lighting
Guide-me-home lighting
Automatic
With the ring of the lighting control stalk in the
"AUTO” position and when the light is poor, the

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.
Peugeot Matrix LED
Technology 2.0
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations for
automatic lighting systems.
This system automatically adapts the main
beam according to the driving conditions, so that
optimum illumination is maintained for the driver,
without causing a nuisance to other road users.
The driver remains responsible for the vehicle's lighting, its correct use in the
prevailing light, visibility and traffic conditions,
and for compliance with driving and vehicle
regulations.
The system is active from 28 mph
(45 km/h) and deactivates below 22 mph
(35

km/h).
Activation/Deactivation
► Place the ring of the lighting control stalk in
the “ AUTO” position.
This indicator lamp comes on in the instrument panel.
It is configured in the Settings > Vehicle
touch screen application.
The state of the system is stored when the
ignition is switched off.
When deactivated, the lighting system changes
to "Automatic illumination of lamps" mode.
It is recommended that you deactivate
the function in foggy or snowy conditions
or in case of heavy mist.
The function temporarily is deactivated when
the system detects thick fog or when the
foglamps are switched on manually. This is
signalled by the indicator lamp going off on
the instrument panel.
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.

4Activation/Deactivation
► Place the ring of the lighting control stalk in
the “AUTO” position.
It is configured in the Settings > Vehicle
touch screen application.
Operation
"Road" mode

This lighting provides a higher light beam, an
increased intensity of the headlamps and a
decreased intensity of the modules.
The range of this lighting is approximately
240
m.
This mode is activated once the vehicle has
been moving for more than 2
seconds at a speed
between 0 and 68
mph (0 and 110 km/h).
"Motorway" mode

The headlamps and modules create a cone of
light with a high beam, suitable for fast roads.
The range of this lighting is approximately
280 m.
This mode is activated if the vehicle has been
moving for more than 5 seconds above 68 mph
(110 km/h) and is deactivated if the vehicle has
been moving for more than 5 seconds below 56
mph (90 km/h).
"Fog" mode

This mode is activated if the vehicle is moving at
a speed between 0 and 43 mph (70 km/h) and
the rear foglamps are on.
The range of this lighting is approximately
180 m.
Beyond 43 mph (70 km/h), the function switches
to "road" or "motorway" mode even if the rear
foglamps are activated.
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).

Operation
If the function is selected but the display
on the instrument panel and the alerts are
not available (in " Night Vision"mode), the
indicator lamp comes on in grey.
If all operating conditions are met, the
indicator lamp comes on in green: the
display on the instrument panel (with " Night
Vision " mode selected) and the triggering of
alerts are available.
If certain operating conditions (speed or
temperature) are not met, the indicator
lamp comes on in orange: only the display on the
instrument panel is available (in " Night Vision"
mode).
Whilst the exterior light is too bright or the dipped
beam headlamps have not been switched on,
the alerts are not available.




The camera detection range is between 15 m
(for pedestrians) and 200 m, depending on
visibility conditions.
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: one of these symbols
appears on the instrument panel. The
corresponding silhouette is framed in red. If the "
Night Vision" display mode has not been
selected, the alert is triggered in the form of a
temporary window.
In the event of an alert, the driver may act by
making an avoiding manoeuvre or by braking.
Operating limits

Driving and manoeuvring
aids - General
recommendations
Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The driver must comply with the Highway
Code, must remain in control of the vehicle in
all circumstances and must be able to retake
control of it at all times. The driver must adapt
the speed to climatic conditions, traffic and
the state of the road.
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly
monitor traffic conditions, assess the distance
and relative speed of other vehicles, and
anticipate their manoeuvres before using the
direction indicator and changing lanes.
These systems do not make it possible to
exceed the laws of physics.
Driving aids
You should hold the steering wheel with
both hands, always use the door and interior
mirrors, always leave your feet close to the
pedals and take a break every 2 hours.
Manoeuvring aids
The driver must always check the
surroundings of the vehicle before and during
the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the
mirrors.
Radar(s)
The operation of the radar(s), along with
any associated functions, may be affected
by the accumulation of dirt (e.g.
mud, ice),
in poor weather conditions (e.g.
heavy rain,
snow), or if the bumpers are damaged.
If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop;
certain types of paint could interfere with the
operation of the radar(s).


Driving aids camera
This camera and its associated functions
may be impaired or not work if the windscreen
area in front of the camera is dirty, misty,
frosty, covered with snow, damaged or
masked by a sticker.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Poor visibility (e.g.
inadequate street lighting,
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle
(e.g.
headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low
sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving a
tunnel, alternating shade and light) can also
impair detection performance.
