SURVEILLANCE MIRROR

This mirror, placed on top of the
central mirror, enables the driver or
front passenger to observe all the rear
seats.
Fitted on its own ball joint, its manual
adjustment is simple and provides a
view of the rear interior of the vehicle.
It can also be adjusted for improved
visibility during manoeuvres or when
overtaking.

REAR WINDOWS

To partially open the rear windows, tilt
the lever and push it fully to lock the
windows in the open position.

Manual rear view mirror

The rear view mirror has two positions:
-

day (normal),

-

night (anti-dazzle).

To change from one to the other, push
or pull the lever on the lower edge of
the mirror.

ELECTRIC WINDOWS

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.

Safety anti-pinch

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

Manual mode

This mode is available
depending on equipment; it is

identified by this symbol on the

control in question.

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.

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.

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.

There are two operating modes:

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

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.

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...

HAZARD WARNING LAMPS

HORN

Press the centre of the steering wheel.

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.

Parking sensors

SAFETY

5

Partner2VP_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2016

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.

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.

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

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.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM

(ABS / EBFD)

The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake
force distribution) systems improve the
stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle on braking, in particular on
poor or slippery surfaces.
The ABS prevents locking of the
wheels, the EBFD provides control of
the braking pressure wheel by wheel.

If this warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message
in the screen, it indicates a
malfunction of the ABS which

could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle on braking.

If this warning lamp comes
on, together with the brake
and STOP warning lamps,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the

screen, it indicates a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution
which could result in a loss of control of
the vehicle on braking.

EMERGENCY BRAKING

ASSISTANCE (EBA)

In an emergency, this system enables
the optimum braking pressure to be
reached more quickly, press the pedal

firmly without releasing it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is pressed down.
This alters the resistance of the brake
pedal under your foot.
To maintain operation of the
emergency braking assistance system:
keep your foot on the brake pedal.

Good practice

The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock. It does not
reduce the braking distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice, oil,
etc...) the ABS may increase the
braking distance. When braking in
an emergency, do not hesitate to

press the brake pedal firmly, without

releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able
to continue to manoeuvre the vehicle
to avoid an obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be
felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that these are listed by
PEUGEOT for the vehicle.

Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualified workshop.

ANTI-SLIP REGULATION (ASR)

AND DYNAMIC STABILITY

CONTROL (DSC)

These systems are linked and
complement the ABS.
The ASR system is very useful for
maintaining optimum drive and
avoiding losses of control of the vehicle
on acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent
the wheels skidding, by acting on the
brakes of the drive wheels and on the
engine. It also allows the directional
stability of the vehicle to be improved
on acceleration.
Use the DSC to hold your course
without attempting to countersteer.
If there is a variation between the
trajectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the DSC
system automatically acts on the
engine and the brake of one or more
wheels, in order to put the vehicle back
on course.

Deactivation

In certain exceptional conditions
(starting the vehicle when stuck in mud
or snow, or on loose ground...), it could
prove useful to deactivate the ASR and
DSC systems to make the wheels spin
and regain grip.

Operating fault

Good practice

The ASR/DSC systems offer increased
safety during normal driving, but
should not incite the driver to take risks
or to drive at high speed.
The operation of these systems is
ensured if the recommendations
of the manufacturer regarding
the wheels (tyres and rims), the
braking components, the electronic

components and the fitting and repair

procedures are observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualified workshop.

Operation

The warning lamp flashes

when operation of the ASR or
DSC is triggered.

They engage again:
-

automatically above 30 mph
(50 km/h),

When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the warning
lamp and the LED come on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen.

-

Press the button or turn
the dial to the DSC OFF
position (depending on
model).

-

The LED comes on: the ASR and
DSC systems no longer come into
play.

-

manually by pressing the
button again or by turning
the dial to this position
(depending on model).

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualified workshop to have the system

checked.
The warning lamp may also come on if

the tyres are under-inflated. Check the

pressure of each tyre.

GRIP CONTROL

Correct use
Your vehicle is designed principally to
drive on tarmac roads but it allows you
to drive on other less passable terrain
occasionally.
However, particularly when your
vehicle is heavily laden, it does not
permit off-road activities such as:
-

crossing and driving on ground
which could damage the underbody
or tear off components (fuel pipe,
fuel cooler, ...), particularly by
obstacles or stones,

-

driving on ground with steep
gradients and poor grip,

-

crossing a stream.

On snow, mud or sand, traction control
is obtained by a compromise between
safety, grip, traction and appropriate
tyres.

It adapts to allows most conditions of
poor grip to be accommodated.
The accelerator pedal must be pressed
enough for there to be adequate
engine power to manage the various
parameters in the best way.

121

Driving safely

SAFETY

Partner2VP_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2016

Different

modes are available:

Normal (ESC)

ESC OFF

Snow

This mode allows the vehicle
to adapts its strategy to the
conditions of grip encountered
for each of the two front
wheels, on moving off.

When moving, the system optimises
wheelspin to provide the best
acceleration possible for the grip
available.

Off road

(mud, wet grass, ...)

When moving off, this
mode allows considerable
wheelspin on the wheel
with the least grip to favour
clearing of the mud and
regain "grip".

At the same time, the wheel with the
most grip is controlled in such a way as
to transmit as much torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises
wheelspin to meet the driver's
requirements as fully as possible.

Sand

This mode allows a little
wheelspin on the two driving
wheels at the same time to
allow the vehicle to move
forward and reduces the risk
of getting stuck in the sand.

Do not use the other modes on sand
as the vehicle may become stuck.

This mode is calibrated for a
low level of skidding, based
on different conditions of grip
encountered on the road.

When the ignition is switched off, the
system returns automatically to DSC
mode.

This mode is only suitable

for specific conditions

encountered when moving off
or at low speed.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h)

the system returns to DSC mode
automatically.

ACTIVE CITY BRAKE

Active City Brake is a driving
assistance system that aims to avoid
a frontal collision or reduce the speed
of an impact if the driver does not

react sufficiently (inadequate brake

application).

This system is designed to
improve driving safety.

It remains the driver's responsibility to
continuously monitor the state of the

traffic and to assess the distances and

relative speeds of other vehicles.
Active City Brake can in no
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.

Never look at the laser sensor
through an optical instrument
(magnifying glass, microscope...)
at a distance of less than
10 centimetres: risk of eye injury.

Principle

Using a laser sensor located at the top
of the windscreen, this system detects
a vehicle running in the same direction
or stationary ahead of your vehicle.
When necessary, the vehicle's braking
system is operated automatically
to avoid a collision with the vehicle
ahead.

Automatic braking occurs later
than if done by the driver, so as
to intervene only when there is a
high risk of collision.

Conditions for activation

Active City Brake only operates if the
following conditions are met:
● ignition on,

● the vehicle is in a forward gear,

● speed is between about 3 and

18 mph (5 and 30 km/h),

● the braking assistance systems

(ABS, EBFD, emergency braking
assistance) are not faulty,

● the trajectory control systems

(ASR, DSC) are not deactivated or
faulty,

● the vehicle is not in a tight corner,

● the system has not been triggered

during the previous 10 seconds.

Partner2VP_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2016

Operation

When your vehicle is too close to or
approaches the vehicle ahead too
quickly the system automatically
applies the brakes to avoid a collision.
You are then alerted by the display of a
message.
The brake lamps on your vehicle come
on to warn other road users.

The collision can be avoided
automatically if the difference in
speed between your vehicle and the
vehicle ahead does not exceed 9 mph
(15 km/h).
Above this threshold, the system will
do what is possible to avoid or reduce
the accident by lowering the speed of
impact.
The automatic braking may bring
the vehicle to a complete stop if the
situation requires it.
In this case, the vehicle is held
stationary temporarily (for about
1.5 seconds) to allow the driver to take
back control by pressing the brake
pedal.

The triggering of the system may
cause the engine to stall, unless
the driver depresses the clutch

pedal quickly enough during automatic
braking.

During automatic braking, the
driver can always obtain a higher
rate of deceleration than that

controlled by the system, by pressing

firmly on the brake pedal.

After an impact, the system is
automatically put out of service:
it no longer operates.

You must go to a PEUGEOT dealer

or a qualified workshop to have the

system made operational again.

Operating limits

The system only detects vehicles that
are stationary or moving in the same
direction as your vehicle.

It does not detect small vehicles
(bicycles, motorcycles),
pedestrians or animals, nor non-

reflective stationary objects.

The system is not triggered or is
interrupted if the driver:
-

accelerates strongly

-

or turns the steering wheel
suddenly (avoiding manoeuvre).

In difficult weather conditions (very

heavy rain, snow, fog, hail...),
braking distances increase, which

can reduce the ability of the system to
avoid a collision.
The driver must therefore remain
particularly vigilant.

Never leave accumulations of
snow or any object projecting
above the bonnet or in front of

the roof: this might fall into the field of

vision of the sensor and generate a
detection.

Operating faults

Sensor fault
The operation of the laser sensor may
suffer interference from accumulations
of dirt or misting of the windscreen.
In this case you are warned by the
display of a message.
Use the windscreen demisting
and regularly clean the area of the
windscreen in front of the sensor.

Do not stick or otherwise fix any

object on the windscreen in front
of the sensor.

System fault
In the event of a malfunction of the
system, you are warned by an audible
signal and the display of the message
"

Automatic braking system fault".

Have the system checked by a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified

workshop.

In the event of an impact to
the windscreen at the sensor,
deactivate the system and contact

a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified

workshop to have your windscreen
replaced.

Never try to remove, adjust or test
the sensor.
Only a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualified workshop is able to work

on the system.

When towing a trailer or when the

correctly by pulling the strap.

Seat belt(s) not fastened

warning lamp

Unfastening

Press the red button.

When the vehicle is started,
this warning lamp comes on
if a user at the front has not
fastened their seat belt.

Good practice

The driver must ensure that
passengers use the seat belts correctly
and that they are all strapped in
securely before moving off.
Wherever you are seated in the
vehicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia

reel which automatically adjusts the
length of the strap to your size.
Do not use accessories (clothes pegs,
clips, safety pins, etc.) which allow the

seat belt straps to fit loosely.
Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
has reeled in correctly and that the
buckle is ready to accommodate the
tongue.
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of any impact, the
pretensioning device may be deployed

before and independently of inflation

of the airbags. It instantly tightens
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
Deployment of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.

The front passenger's seat may be

fitted with a presence detector, in which

case you should not place anything
heavy on this seat as this could trigger
the alert.
