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.

–  Vehicles with hidden lighting (e.g. travelling 

behind a safety barrier on the motorway).

–  Vehicles 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.

With the ring of the lighting control stalk in the 

"

AUTO

" position and the function activated on 

the touch screen, this system automatically 

switches between dipped and main beam 

headlamps, according to lighting and traffic 

conditions, using a camera located at the top of 

the windscreen.

 

 

This system is a driving aid.

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 becomes operational when 

the vehicle exceeds 16 mph (25 km/h).

When the speed falls below 9 mph (15 km/h), 

the function is no longer operational.

Activation/Deactivation

The settings are changed via the 

Driving/

Vehicle

 touch screen menu.

The state of the system is stored when the 

ignition is switched off.

Operation

If the ambient light level is very low and traffic 

conditions permit:

–  The main beam headlamps 

come on automatically. These 

indicator lamps light up on the instrument panel.

If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or the 

traffic conditions do not allow the main beam 

headlamps to be lit:

–  The dipped beam headlamps 

remain lit. These indicator lamps 

light up on the instrument panel.

The function is deactivated if the foglamps 

are switched on or if the system detects poor 

visibility conditions (e.g. fog, heavy rain, 

snowfall).

When the foglamps are switched off or when the 

visibility conditions become favourable again, the 

function is automatically reactivated.

This indicator lamp goes out when the 

function is deactivated.

Pause

If the situation requires a change of headlamp 

beam, the driver can take over at any time.

►  Switch the headlamps manually between 

dipped and main beam to pause the function.

If the "AUTO" and "Dipped beam" indicator 

lamps were on, the system changes to main 

beam.

If the "AUTO" and "Main beam" indicator lamps 

were on, the system changes to dipped beam.

►  To reactivate the function, once again switch 

the headlamps manually between dipped and 

main beam.

Static cornering lighting

 

 

With the dipped or main beam headlamps on, 

this function allows headlamps to illuminate 

the inside of a bend using light-emitting diodes 

(LEDs).

" 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).

Activation/Deactivation

This function is set via the 

Driving/

Vehicle

 touch screen menu.

Conditions for operation

–  With the engine running and in Stop mode 

of Stop & Start.

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 

and poorer wiping performance.  You do not 

need to replace the wiper blades.

If the ignition has been switched off with 

the windscreen wipers active, you must 

operate the control stalk again to reactivate 

wiping when the ignition is switched on again 

(unless the ignition was off for less than 

a minute).

After the ignition has been switched off, 

the wipers may move slightly at the foot 

of the windscreen.

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.

Screenwash fluid is sprayed along the length 

of the wiper blade. This improves visibility and 

reduces screenwash fluid consumption.

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.

Changing a wiper blade

Special position of the 

windscreen wipers

This maintenance position is used while cleaning 

or replacing the wiper blades. It can also be 

useful, in wintry weather (ice, snow), to release 

the wiper blades from the windscreen.

To maintain the effectiveness of the flat 

wiper blades, it is advisable to:

–  handle them with care.

–  clean them regularly using soapy water.

–  avoid using them to hold cardboard on the 

windscreen.

–  replace them at the first signs of wear.

Before removing a windscreen wiper blade

 

 

Operating the wiper control stalk within one 

minute after switching off the ignition will place 

the wiper blades in a vertical position.

Event Data Recording 

system

(Depending on country of sale)

This vehicle is fitted with an accident data 

recording system, also called Event Data 

Recorder (EDR).

This system gathers and records certain vehicle 

data over a short period (a few seconds) before, 

during and after an event such as an accident or 

collision.

In order to gain a better understanding of the 

circumstances surrounding the event, this 

system records how the vehicle’s various 

systems are operating at the time of the event, 

including:

–  Any deployment of a restraint system 

(e.g. airbag, seat belt).

–  The status of the seat belts of all the 

occupants (fastened/unfastened).

–  The contact or intensity of pressure exerted on 

the pedal(s) engaged by the driver.

–  The speed of the vehicle.

–  The status of some driving and manoeuvring 

aids systems.

The following are not recorded by the system:

–  Data on normal driving conditions, in other 

words data not directly related to the event.

–  Personal data on the driver and any other 

occupants.

–  The geographical location of the vehicle at the 

time of the event.

The reading of data recorded by the system 

requires the following:

–  Access to the interior of the vehicle or to the 

system.

And

–  Special equipment that can be purchased from 

the manufacturer BOSCH (www.BoschCDRTool.

com).

Aside from the vehicle Manufacturer, other 

parties such as law enforcement agencies may 

access this data in order to analyse the event.

Electronic stability control 

(ESC)

The electronic stability control programme 

includes the following systems:

–  Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and Electronic 

brake force distribution (EBFD).

–  Emergency braking assistance (EBA).

–  Anti-slip regulation (ASR).

–  Dynamic stability control (DSC).

–  Trailer stability assist (TSA).

Anti-lock braking system 

(ABS)/Electronic brake force 

distribution (EBFD)

These systems enhance the vehicle’s stability 

and handling during braking, and enable greater 

control while cornering, particularly on poor or 

slippery road surfaces.

ABS prevents wheel locking in the event of 

emergency braking.

Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD) 

manages overall braking pressure on each 

individual wheel.

► 

When braking in an emergency, depress 

the pedal very firmly and maintain this 

pressure.

Normal operation of the ABS may make 

itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake 

pedal.

The fixed illumination of this warning lamp 

signals that there is a fault with the ABS.

The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive 

carefully at a moderate speed.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 

qualified workshop.

This warning lamp, when lit together with 

the 

STOP

 and ABS warning lamps, 

accompanied by a message and an audible 

signal, indicates an EBFD malfunction.

You must stop the vehicle.

Stop as soon as it is safe to do so and switch off 

the ignition.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 

workshop.

When changing wheels (tyres and rims), 

ensure that these are approved for your 

vehicle.

After an impact

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer 

or a qualified workshop.

Emergency braking 

assistance (EBA)

This system reduces the emergency stopping 

distance, by optimising the braking pressure.

It is triggered in relation to the speed at which 

the brake pedal is depressed. The effect of this 

is a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and 

an increase in braking efficiency.

Intelligent traction control

(Depending on version)

The intelligent traction control system helps 

improve grip when driving on snow.

This system detects situations of poor surface 

grip that could make it difficult to move off 

or make progress on deep fresh snow or 

compacted snow.

In these situations, the system limits the amount 

of wheel spin to provide the best traction and 

trajectory control for the vehicle.

The use of winter tyres is strongly 

recommended on slippery surfaces.

Anti-slip regulation (ASR) 

/ Dynamic stability control 

(DSC)

Anti-slip regulation (or traction control) optimises 

traction by using engine braking and by applying 

the brakes on the driving wheels to avoid one 

or more wheels spinning. It also enhances the 

vehicle's directional stability.

If there is a difference between the vehicle’s 

trajectory and the path desired by the driver, the 

dynamic stability control system automatically 

uses engine braking and the brakes on one or 

more wheels to return the vehicle to the desired 

path, within the limits of the laws of physics.

These systems are activated automatically every 

time the vehicle is started.

92

Safety

These systems are activated in the event 

of a problem with grip or trajectory 

(confirmed by this warning lamp flashing on the 

instrument panel).

Deactivation/Reactivation

In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle 

which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft 

ground, etc.), it may be advisable to deactivate 

the ASR system, so that the wheels can turn 

freely and regain grip.

Reactivate the system as soon as the level of 

grip permits.

This function is set via the 

Driving/

Vehicle

 touch screen menu.

Deactivation is confirmed by the lighting 

of this indicator lamp on the instrument 

panel and the display of a message.

The ASR system is reactivated automatically 

every time the ignition is switched off, or at 

speeds over 31 mph (50 km/h).

Reactivation is manual below 31 mph (50 km/h).

Malfunction

In the event of a malfunction, this warning 

lamp comes on 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.

ASR/DSC

These systems enhance safety during 

normal driving, but should not encourage 

the driver to take extra risks or drive at high 

speed.

It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain, snow, 

ice) that the risk of loss of grip increases. It 

is therefore important for your safety to keep 

these systems activated in all conditions, and 

particularly in difficult conditions.

Correct operation of these systems depends 

on compliance with the manufacturer's 

recommendations relating to the wheels 

(tyres and rims), braking and electronic 

components, as well as the assembly and 

repair procedures provided by PEUGEOT 

dealers.

In order to ensure that these systems remain 

effective in wintry conditions, the use of snow 

or all-season tyres is recommended. All four 

wheels must be fitted with tyres approved for 

your vehicle.

All tyre specifications are listed on the 

tyre/paint label. For more information 

on 

Identification markings

, refer to the 

corresponding section.

Trailer stability assist (TSA)

When towing, this system reduces the risk of the 

vehicle or trailer snaking.

Operation

The system is activated automatically when the 

ignition is switched on.

The electronic stability control system (ESC) 

must not have any faults.

The vehicle speed must be between 37 and 99 

mph (60 and 160 km/h).

If the system detects that the trailer is 

snaking, it applies the brakes to stabilise 

the trailer and reduces engine power, if 

necessary, to slow the vehicle (indicated by the 

flashing of this warning lamp on the instrument 

panel and the brake lamps coming on).

For information on weights and towed loads, 

refer to the 

Engine technical data and towed 

loads

 section or your vehicle’s registration 

certificate.

To ensure safe driving with a 

Towing device

refer to the corresponding section.

Malfunction

If a fault occurs, this warning lamp lights 

up on the instrument panel, accompanied 

by a message and an audible signal.

To continue towing a trailer, reduce speed and 

drive carefully!

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 

qualified workshop.

The trailer stability control system 

provides an extra safety feature under 

normal driving conditions, when following the 

recommendations for use of trailers and

current legislation in force in your country. It 

must not encourage the driver to take extra 

risks, such as using a trailer in unsuitable 

conditions of operation (e.g. excessive load, 

exceeded nose weight, worn or under-inflated 

tyres, faulty braking system) or driving at 

excessive speed.

In certain cases, the system may not detect 

trailer snaking, particularly with a light trailer.

When driving on slippery or poor surfaces, the 

system may not be able to prevent sudden 

trailer snaking.

Advanced Grip Control

This special patented traction control system 

improves grip on snow, mud and sand.

For optimum grip on snow, it is 

recommended that you fit the vehicle 

with winter tyres.

For optimum system performance, contact a 

PEUGEOT dealer to choose the most suitable 

tyres.

Recommendations

The vehicle is designed principally 

to drive on tarmac roads, but it may 

occassionally drive on other less passable 

terrain.

However, it does not permit off-road driving:

–  Driving on terrain that can damage the 

underbody or tear off elements (e.g. fuel 

pipe, fuel cooler) by obstacles or stones in 

particular.

–  Driving on terrain with steep gradients and 

poor grip.

–  Crossing a waterway.

Operating modes

Snow

This mode constantly adapts the level of wheel 

spin to offer maximum traction according to the 

snow conditions (a lot of wheel spin in thick 

snow; very little on ice). The wheel spin is also 

adapted to the conditions encountered when 

driving uphill by optimising the acceleration of 

the vehicle.

(mode active up to 50 mph (80 km/h))

Mud

This mode, when moving off, allows considerable 

spin on the wheel with the least grip to optimise 

clearing of the mud and to regain grip. At the 

same time, the wheel with the most grip is 

controlled in such a way as to transmit as much 

traction torque as possible.

When moving, the system optimises wheel spin 

to respond to the driver's requirements as fully 

as possible.

(mode active up to 31 mph (50 km/h))

Sand

This mode allows little spin on the two driving 

wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to 

move forward and limit the risks of getting stuck 

in the sand.

(mode active up to 75 mph (120 km/h))

Do not use the other modes on sand as 

the vehicle may become stuck.

With manual gearbox

 

 

 

 

►  Turn the selector to choose the mode 

corresponding to the driving conditions

An indicator lamp associated with each mode 

comes on, accompanied by the display of a 

message to confirm your choice.

Hill Assist Descent 

Control

Hill Assist Descent Control system for medium to 

steep slopes, on tarmac or other road surfaces 

(e.g. gravel, mud).

This system reduces the risk of slip or loss of 

control of the vehicle when descending, whether 

going forward or in reverse.

During a descent, the system assists the driver 

in maintaining a constant speed, depending on 

the gear engaged, while progressively releasing 

the brakes.

For the system to activate, the gradient 

must be greater than 5%.

The system can be used with the gearbox in 

neutral.

Otherwise, engage a gear corresponding to 

the speed to prevent the engine stalling.

With an automatic gearbox, the system can 

be used with the selector at 

N

D

 or 

R

.

The system is no longer available if the 

speed of the vehicle is:

–  above 43 mph (70 km/h).

–  managed by the Adaptive cruise control 

function, depending on the type of gearbox.

Switching on

By default, the system is not selected.

The state of the function is not saved when the 

ignition is switched off.

 

 

 

 

►  To select the system, at speeds below 

31 mph (50 km/h), press this button until 

its green indicator lamp lights up; this lamp 

appears in grey on the instrument panel.

►  The system becomes active at speeds 

below 19 mph (30 km/h); this lamp lights 

up in green on the instrument panel.

►  When the vehicle begins its descent, the 

driver can release the accelerator and brake 

pedals; the system regulates the speed:

–  If the gearbox is in first or second gear, 

the speed decreases and the 

indicator lamp flashes rapidly.

95

Safety

5

–  If the gearbox is in neutral or if the clutch 

pedal is depressed, the speed decreases and 

the indicator lamp flashes slowly; in this case, 

the maintained descent speed is lower.

On a descent, with the vehicle stationary, if the 

driver releases the accelerator and brake pedals, 

the system will release the brakes to set the 

vehicle gradually in motion.

The brake lamps light up automatically when the 

system is regulating.

If the speed exceeds 19 mph (30 km/h), 

regulation is paused automatically, the 

indicator lamp goes back to grey in the 

instrument panel, but the green indicator lamp in 

the button remains on.

Regulation resumes automatically when the 

speed falls below 19 mph (30 km/h) again, if the 

slope and pedal release conditions are met.

You can depress the accelerator or brake pedal 

again at any time.

Switching off

►  Press the button until its indicator lamp goes 

off; the indicator lamp on the instrument panel 

goes off.

At speeds above 43 mph (70 km/h), the system 

is automatically deactivated; the indicator lamp in 

the button goes off.

Malfunction

In the event of a malfunction, this warning 

lamp comes on in green on the 

instrument panel, accompanied by the display of 

a message.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 

qualified workshop.

Seat belts

Inertia reel

The seat belts are equipped with an inertia 

reel which allows the strap length to adjust 

automatically to the shape of the user. The seat 

belt returns to its storage automatically when it 

is not used.

The inertia reels are fitted with a device which 

automatically locks the strap in the event of a 

collision, emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls 

over. It can be released by pulling the strap firmly 

and then releasing it so that it reels in slightly.

Pyrotechnic pretensioning

This system improves safety in the event of a 

frontal or side impact.

Depending on the severity of the impact, the 

pyrotechnic pretensioning system instantly 

tightens the seat belts against the body of the 

occupants.

The pyrotechnic pretensioning seat belts are 

enabled when the ignition is on.

Force limiting system

This system reduces the pressure of the seat 

belt on the chest of the occupant, thus improving 

their protection.

In the event of an impact

Depending on the nature and 

seriousness of the impacts, the pyrotechnic 

device may trigger before and independently 

of airbag deployment. 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.

In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes 

on.

Following an impact, have the seat belt 

system checked, and if necessary replaced, 

by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 

workshop.
