Mirrors and windows

ELECTRIC WINDOWS

Safety anti-pinch

When the window rises and meets an
obstacle, it stops and partially lowers.

The electrical functions of the electric
windows are deactivated:
- approximately 45 seconds after the

ignition is switched off,

-

after one of the front doors is
opened, if the ignition is off.

Manual mode

Press or pull the control, without
passing the point of resistance.
The window stops when you release
the control.

This mode is available
depending on equipment; it is

identified by this symbol on the

control in question.

1. Driver's side
2. Passenger's side

Reinitialisation

Following reconnection of the battery,
or in the event of a malfunction, the
safety anti-pinch function must be
reinitialised.

Good practice

If the electric windows meet an
obstacle during operation, you must
reverse the movement of the window.
To do this, press the control concerned.
When the driver operates the
passenger electric window controls,
they must ensure that no one is
preventing correct closing of the
windows.
The driver must ensure that the
passengers use the electric windows
correctly.
Be aware of children when operating
the windows.
Following several consecutive closing/
opening operations of the electric
window control, a protection system
is triggered which only allows closing
of the window. After closing, wait
approximately 40 minutes. Once this
time has elapsed, the control becomes
operational again.

Lower the window fully, then raise it, it
will rise in steps of a few centimetres
each time the control is pressed.
Repeat the operation until the window
is fully closed.
Continue to press the control for at
least one second after the window
closed position has been reached.
The safety anti-pinch does not operate
during these operations.

There are two operating modes:

One-touch mode

Press or pull the control, beyond the
point of resistance.
The window opens or closes fully when
the control is released.

Pressing or pulling the control again
stops the movement of the window.

Driving safely

Partner-2-VU_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2016

Labels are applied at various
points on your vehicle. They
carry safety warnings as well as

vehicle identification information. Do

not remove them: they form an integral
part of your vehicle.

GENERAL SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS

For any work on your vehicle, use

a qualified workshop that has the

technical information, skills and

equipment required, all of which a
PEUGEOT dealer is able to provide.

We draw your attention to the
following points:

- The fitting of electrical equipment

or accessories not listed by
PEUGEOT may cause excessive
current consumption and faults and
failures with the electrical system of
your vehicle. Contact a PEUGEOT
dealer for information on the range
of recommended accessories.

-

As a safety measure, access to
the diagnostic socket, used for
the vehicle's electronic systems,
is reserved strictly for PEUGEOT

dealers or qualified workshops,

equipped with the special tools
required (risk of malfunctions of the
vehicle's electronic systems that
could cause breakdowns or serious
accidents). The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible if this
advice is not followed.

- Any modification or adaptation

not intended or authorised by
Automobiles PEUGEOT or
carried out without meeting the

technical requirements defined by

the manufacturer would lead to
the suspension of the legal and
contractual warranties.

Installation of accessory radio
communication transmitters

Before installing a radio communication
transmitter, you must contact a

PEUGEOT dealer for the specification

of transmitters which can be fitted

(frequency, maximum power,

aerial position, specific installation

requirements), in line with the Vehicle
Electromagnetic Compatibility
Directive (2004/104/EC).

Depending on the legislation in
force in the country, certain safety
equipment may be compulsory:

high visibility safety vests, warning
triangles, breathalysers, spare bulbs,

spare fuses, fire extinguisher, first

aid kit, mud flaps at the rear of the

vehicle...

PARKING BRAKE

Applying

Pull the parking brake lever up to
immobilise your vehicle.
Check that the parking brake is applied

firmly before leaving the vehicle.

Pull on the parking brake lever, only
with the vehicle stationary.
In the exceptional case of use of the
parking brake when the vehicle is
moving, apply the brake by pulling
gently to avoid locking the rear wheels
(risk of skidding).

Press this button, the direction

indicators flash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
The hazard warning lamps should only
be used in dangerous situations, when
stopping in an emergency or when
driving in unusual conditions.

When parking on a slope, direct your
wheels towards the pavement and pull
the parking brake lever up.
There is no advantage in engaging
a gear after parking the vehicle,
particularly if the vehicle is loaded.

If the parking brake is still on or has
not been released properly, this is
indicated by this warning lamp which
comes on in the instrument panel.

Automatic operation of hazard
warning lamps

When braking in an emergency,
depending on the force of deceleration,
the hazard warning lamps come
on automatically. They switch off

automatically the first time you

accelerate.
It is also possible to switch them off by
pressing the switch on the dashboard.

Releasing

Pull the lever up slightly and press the
button to lower the parking brake lever.

Partner-2-VU_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2016

Parking sensors

The audible (front and rear) and visual
(rear) parking sensor system consists
of proximity sensors, installed in the
rear bumper.
The sensors detect any obstacle which

enters its field of operation: person,

vehicle, tree, fence, behind the vehicle
during the manoeuvre.
Certain objects detected at the
beginning of the manoeuvre will no
longer be detected at the end of the
manoeuvre due to the blind spots
between and below the sensors.
Examples: stake, roadworks cone or
pavement post.

Engage reverse gear

PARKING SENSORS

Display in the screen

An audible signal confirms the

activation of the system by engaging
reverse gear.
The proximity information is indicated
by an audible signal which becomes
more rapid as the vehicle approaches
the obstacle.
When the distance between the rear
of the vehicle and the obstacle is less
than approximately thirty centimetres,
the audible signal becomes
continuous.

Activation / Deactivation

Malfunction

In the event of a malfunction, the LED
in the button comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message in
the screen.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or

qualified workshop.

Good practice

In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered with mud,
ice or snow.
The system will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed

or if a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle

fitted with a towbar or bicycle carrier

recommended by PEUGEOT).

You can activate or deactivate
the system by pressing this
button.
The activation or deactivation
of the system is stored when
the vehicle stops.

The parking sensor system
cannot, in any circumstances,
take the place of the vigilance and
responsibility of the driver.

Engage forward gear

In addition to the rear parking sensors,
the front parking sensors are triggered
when an obstacle is detected in front of
the vehicle and the speed of the vehicle
remains below 6 mph (10 km/h).

The tone from the speaker (front
or rear) allows an obstacle to be

identified as either in front of or

behind the vehicle.

Stop the assistance

Change to neutral.

You are advised to deactivate

the system if your vehicle is fitted

with a rear ladder or if you are
transporting a load which exceeds
the length of the vehicle.

REVERSING CAMERA

The reversing camera is activated
automatically when reverse gear is
engaged.
The image is displayed in the touch
screen.

The reversing camera function may be
completed with parking sensors.

The reversing camera cannot in
any circumstances be a substitute
for vigilance on the part of the
driver.

High pressure jet washing
When washing your vehicle, do
not direct the lance within 30 cm of
the camera lens.

The superimposed representation of
guide lines helps with the manoeuvre.
They are represented by lines marked
"on the ground" and do not allow the
position of the vehicle to be determined
relative to tall obstacles (for example:
other vehicles, ...).
Some deformation of the image is
normal.

The blue lines represent the general
direction of the vehicle (the difference
corresponds to the width of your
vehicle without the mirrors).
The red lines represent a distance of
about 30 cm beyond the edge of your
vehicle's rear bumper.
The green lines represent distances of
about 1 and 2 metres beyond the edge
of your vehicle's rear bumper.
The turquoise blue curves represent
the maximum turning circle.

Opening the tailgate causes the
display to disappear.

Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a soft, dry cloth.
