Driving
The display of a message on the instrument
panel confirms the change of state.
Function deactivated, this indicator lights
up in the instrument panel.
If high traction is required, the driver can
deactivate the e-Auto mode using the
touch screen application.
Tyre under-inflation detection
This system alerts the driver if one or more tyres
suffer a drop in pressure.
The alert is raised when the vehicle is moving,
not when stationary.
It compares the information given by the wheel
speed sensors with reference values, which
must be reinitialised every time the tyre
pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.
It takes into account the last values stored
during the reinitialisation request. It is therefore
essential that the tyre pressure is correct during
the operation. This operation is the driver’s
responsibility.
The tyre under-inflation detection cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need
for vigilance on the part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
regularly check the tyre pressures (including
the spare wheel), especially before a long
journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly
in adverse conditions (heavy load, high
speed, long journey):
–

worsens road-holding.
–


lengthens braking distances.
–


causes premature wear of the tyres.
–


increases energy consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for the vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the Identification
markings, refer to the corresponding section.
Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done monthly
when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1

hour or after a journey of less than 6 miles
(10

km) at moderate speeds).
Otherwise, add 0.3
bar to the pressures
shown on the label.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
Under-inflation alert
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and, depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
►

Reduce speed immediately
, avoid excessive
steering movements and avoid sudden braking.
►

Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.
The loss of pressure detected may not always cause visible deformation of the
tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
►

Using a compressor
, such as the one in
the temporary puncture repair kit, check the
pressures of all four tyres when cold.
►

If it is not possible to carry out this check
immediately

, drive carefully at reduced speed.
►

In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel
(depending on equipment).
Driving too slowly may not ensure
optimum monitoring.
The alert is not immediately triggered in the
event of a sudden loss of pressure or tyre
blow-out. This is because analysis of the
values read by the wheel's speed sensors
can take several minutes.
The alert may be delayed at speeds below
25

mph (40 km/h), or when adopting a sporty
driving mode.
The alert is kept active until the system is reinitialised.

124
Driving
On detecting speed limit information, the system
displays the value, accompanied by an audible
signal.


For a suggested maximum speed, when the
vehicle exceeds it, the speed is displayed and
flashes for 3 seconds.


If the vehicle continues to exceed it, the
speed is displayed and flashes for 8 seconds,
accompanied by an audible signal.
Operating limits
The system does not take account of reduced
speed limits, especially those imposed in the
following cases:
–

Atmospheric pollution.
–

Towing.
–

Driving with a space-saver type spare wheel
or snow chains fitted.
–


T
yre repaired using the temporary puncture
repair kit.
–

Y
oung drivers.
The system may not display the speed limit if it
does not detect a speed limit sign within a preset
period and in the following situations:
–
Non-standard road signs.
–


Road signs that are obstructed, damaged or
bent.
Settings
Deactivation/Activation
By default, the overspeed alert sound is
automatically activated at every engine start.
You can activate/deactivate the overspeed alert and the speed limit
change sound.
or
Direct access to the Shortcuts for driving aids .
The system cannot be deactivated.
The speed limit change sound is saved
when the ignition is switched off.
In the event of the overspeed alert sound
deactivation, this warning lamp lights up a
few seconds on the instrument panel.
Country selection
The list of detected road signs can be updated
by selecting a specific country.
► In the ADAS touch screen application,
select Functions >Road Signs>Country
setting.
►

In the
Select Country list, select the desired
country.
The current country is displayed under the function name in the settings screen.
The country selection is saved when the
ignition is switched off.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
This warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel with the message
"Driving Assistance Sensor blind: Clean
sensor, see User Manual" if the sensor is
masked.
This is a normal behavior, which does not
request the support of a qualified workshop.
In this case, stop the vehicle and verify if the
front camera is covered by dirt, mud, sand,
snow, ice or anything preventing the sensing.
The system is operational again after the
detection field has been cleaned.
Speed setting
recommendations
The driver can select the speed displayed by the
Road signs recognition system as the speed
setting for the speed limiter, cruise control or
adaptive cruise control using the OK button.

128
Driving
Cruise control - Specific
recommendations
The cruise control function does not guarantee compliance with the maximum
authorised speed and the safety distance
between vehicles, the driver remains
responsible for their driving.
In the interest of public safety, only use cruise
control if the traffic conditions enable vehicles
to drive at a steady speed and maintain an
adequate safety distance.
Remain vigilant while cruise control is
activated. If you press and hold one of the
speed setting modification buttons, your
vehicle may change speed very abruptly.
When descending a steep hill , the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the set speed. Brake if
necessary to control the vehicle speed.
On steep climbs or when towing, the set
speed may not be reached or maintained.
Exceeding the programmed speed
setting
You can temporarily exceed the speed
setting by pressing the accelerator pedal (the
programmed speed flashes).
To return to the speed setting, release the
accelerator pedal (when the set speed is
reached again, the displayed speed stops
flashing).
Operating limits
Never use the system in the following
situations:
–

In an urban area with the risk of
pedestrians crossing the road.
–


In heavy traffic (except versions with the
Stop

& Go function).
–

On winding or steep roads.
–


On slippery or flooded roads.
–


In poor weather conditions.
–


In the event of restricted visibility for the
driver

.
–

Driving on a speed circuit.
–


Driving on a rolling road.
–


When using a ‘space-saver
’ type spare
wheel.
–

When using snow chains or non-slip
covers.
Cruise control
For more information, refer to the
General recommendations on the use
of driving and manoeuvring aids and the
Specific recommendations on cruise
control.
This system automatically maintains the vehicle’s speed at the value programmed
by the driver (speed setting), without the use of
the accelerator pedal.
Cruise control is switched on manually.
It requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40 km/h).
With a manual gearbox, whichever gear is
engaged.
With an automatic gearbox, mode

D
or second
gear or higher in mode

M
must be engaged.
With a drive selector, mode
D or B must be
engaged.
Cruise control remains active after
changing gear, regardless of the gearbox
type, on engines fitted with the Stop & Start
function.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
speed setting.

Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle
when braking.

187
Practical information
7Snow 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 205/55 R16 9 mm
205/60 R16 9 mm
215/50 R17 9 mm
225/45 R17 9 mm
215/45 R18 9 mm
225/40 R18 Polaire PSGB 60
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 40
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.
To recharge the battery, avoid repeatedly or
continuously restarting the engine.
A flat battery prevents the engine from starting.
