Driving for Your Peugeot 208 4 Door 2020

Driving  
Do not park the vehicle or leave the  
engine running on a flammable  
surface (dry grass, dead leaves, etc.). The  
exhaust system of your vehicle is very hot,  
even several minutes after the engine stops.  
Risk of fire!  
► check that the depth of water does not  
exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that  
might be generated by other users,  
Driving recommendations  
6
► Observe the driving regulations and remain  
vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.  
► Monitor your environment and keep your  
hands on the wheel to be able to react to  
anything that may happen any time.  
► Drive smoothly, anticipate the need for  
braking and maintain a longer safety distance,  
especially in bad weather.  
► deactivate the Stop & Start function,  
► drive as slowly as possible without stalling. In  
all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h),  
► do not stop and do not switch off the engine.  
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety  
conditions allow, make several light brake  
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.  
If in doubt about the state of your vehicle,  
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop.  
Never leave a vehicle unattended with  
the engine running. If you have to leave  
your vehicle with the engine running, apply  
the parking brake and put the gearbox into  
neutral or position N or P (depending on the  
type of gearbox).  
► Stop the vehicle to carry out operations that  
require close attention (such as adjustments).  
► During long trips, take a break every two  
hours.  
Noise (Electric)  
On the outside  
Never leave children inside the vehicle  
unsupervised.  
Important!  
Never leave the engine running in a  
closed space without sufficient  
ventilation. Internal combustion engines emit  
toxic exhaust gases such as carbon  
Due to the vehicle’s quiet operation when driving,  
the driver should pay particular attention.  
At speeds of up to 19 mph (30 km/h), the  
pedestrian horn warns other road users of the  
vehicle’s presence.  
On flooded roads  
We strongly advise against driving on flooded  
roads, as this could cause serious damage to  
the engine or gearbox, as well as to the electrical  
systems of your vehicle.  
monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!  
On the inside  
In severe wintry conditions (temperature  
below -23°C), let the engine run for 4  
minutes before moving off, to ensure the  
correct operation and durability of the  
mechanical components of your vehicle  
(engine and gearbox).  
During use, you may hear certain perfectly  
normal noises specific to electric vehicles, such  
as:  
– Traction battery relay when starting.  
– Vacuum pump when braking.  
– Vehicle tyres or aerodynamics when driving.  
– Jolting and knocking noise during hill starts.  
Never drive with the parking brake  
applied. Risk of overheating and  
damage to the braking system!  
If you are obliged to drive on a flooded road:

Driving  
Tyres  
Brakes  
Towing  
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing  
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the  
recommended pressures.  
Braking distances are increased when towing a  
trailer. To avoid overheating the brakes, the use  
of engine braking is recommended.  
Driving with a trailer places greater  
demands on the towing vehicle and  
particular care must be taken.  
Lighting  
Side wind  
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer  
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.  
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more  
susceptible to wind when towing.  
Do not exceed the maximum towable  
weights.  
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by  
10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower  
air density at high altitudes decreases engine  
performance.  
If a genuine PEUGEOT towing device is  
used, the rear parking sensors will be  
deactivated automatically to avoid the audible  
signal.  
Anti-theft protection  
Electronic immobiliser  
The keys include an electronic engine  
immobiliser system, with a code that must be  
recognised in order for starting to be possible.  
If the system malfunctions, indicated by the  
display of a message, the engine will not start.  
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.  
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the  
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles  
(1,000 kilometres).  
When driving  
Cooling  
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant  
temperature to increase. The maximum towable  
load depends on the gradient and the exterior  
temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not  
increase with engine speed.  
If the outside temperature is high, let the  
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the  
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.  
► Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to  
limit heating up.  
Before setting off  
Nose weight  
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant  
temperature.  
If this warning lamp and the STOP  
warning lamp come on, stop the  
vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as  
possible.  
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the  
heaviest items are as close as possible to the  
axle and the nose weight (at the point where it  
joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum  
permitted without exceeding it.

Under-inflation detection  
This system automatically checks the pressures  
of the tyres while driving.  
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.  
The system triggers an alert as soon as it  
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one or  
more tyres.  
Special cases  
The engine restarts automatically if all the  
operating conditions are met again and in the  
following cases.  
– With a manual gearbox: vehicle speed  
exceeds 2.5 mph (4 km/h),  
– With an automatic gearbox, in mode N, vehicle  
speed exceeds 0.6 mph (1 km/h).  
In these cases, this indicator lamp flashes

The images from the camera(s)  
displayed on the touch screen or on the  
instrument panel may be distorted by the  
relief.  
In the presence of areas in shade, or in  
conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate  
lighting, the image may be darkened and with  
lower contrast.  
It is the driver's responsibility to constantly  
check the traffic, to assess the relative  
distances and speeds of other vehicles and to  
anticipate their movements before indicating  
and changing lane.  
The systems cannot exceed the limits of the  
laws of physics.  
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.  
On versions with camera alone, this message  
indicates to you that the camera is obstructed:  
"Driving aids camera: visibility limited, see  
user guide".  
Obstacles may appear further away than they  
actually are.  
Driving aids  
You should hold the steering wheel  
with both hands, always use the interior and  
exterior rear view mirrors, always keep the  
feet close to the pedals and take a break  
every two hours.  
Sensors  
The operation of the sensors as well as  
the associated functions may be disturbed  
by sound interference such as that emitted  
by noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries,  
pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of  
snow or dead leaves on the road or in the  
event of damaged bumpers and mirrors.  
When reverse gear is engaged, an audible  
signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors  
may be dirty.  
A front or rear impact to the vehicle can  
upset the sensors’ settings, which is not  
always detected by the system: distance  
measurements may be distorted.  
The sensors do not systematically detect  
obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs)  
or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).  
Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind  
spots may not be detected or may no longer  
be detected during the manoeuvre.  
Manoeuvring aids  
In humid and cold weather, demist the  
windscreen regularly.  
The driver must always check the  
surroundings of the vehicle before and during  
the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the  
mirrors.  
Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting,  
heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle  
(headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun,  
reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel,  
alternating shade and light) can also impair  
detection performance.  
In the event of a windscreen replacement,  
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop to recalibrate the camera;  
otherwise, the operation of the associated  
driving aids may be disrupted.  
Radar  
The operation of the radar as well as the  
associated functions may be impaired through  
the accumulation of dirt (mud, frost, etc.), in  
certain difficult weather conditions (very heavy  
rain, snow) or if the bumper is damaged.  
If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact  
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop;

In the case of suggested maximum speeds, the  
first time the vehicle exceeds the suggested  
speed by more than 3 mph (5 km/h) (e.g. 59  
mph (95 km/h)), the speed is displayed flashing  
for 10 seconds.  
In addition to Speed Limit Recognition and  
Recommendation, the driver can select the  
speed displayed as a speed setting for the speed  
limiter or cruise control using the speed limiter or  
cruise control memorisation button.  
Operating limits  
The system does not take account of reduced  
speed limits, especially those imposed in the  
following cases:  
– Atmospheric pollution.  
– Towing.  
If rain is detected, the system will propose to the  
driver a speed setting lower than the speed read/  
obtained from the mapping in order to adapt to  
the weather conditions (example: on a motorway,  
the proposed speed will be 68 mph (110 km/h)  
instead of 81 mph (130 km/h).

fixed) in the event of a speed limiter malfunction.  
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT  
dealer or a qualified workshop.  
On a steep descent or in the event of  
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will  
not be able to prevent the vehicle from  
exceeding the speed setting.  
Brake if necessary to control the speed of  
your vehicle.  
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).  
Cruise control - particular  
recommendations  
For the safety of everyone, only use the  
cruise control where the driving  
conditions allow running at a constant speed  
and keeping an adequate safety distance.  
Remain vigilant when the cruise control is  
activated. If you hold one of the speed setting  
modification buttons, a very rapid change in  
the speed of your vehicle may occur.  
When descending a steep hill, the cruise  
control system cannot prevent the vehicle  
from exceeding the set speed. Brake if  
necessary to control the speed of your  
vehicle.  
– On winding or steep roads.  
– On slippery or flooded roads.  
– In poor weather conditions.  
– Driving on a speed circuit.  
– Driving on a rolling road.  
– When using snow chains, non-slip covers  
or studded tyres.

Adaptive Cruise Control  
Refer to the General recommendations on the  
use of driving and manoeuvring aids and to  
Cruise control - particular recommendations.  
This system automatically maintains the speed  
of your vehicle at a value which you set (speed  
setting), while keeping a safe distance from the  
vehicle in front (target vehicle), and which has  
been set beforehand by the driver. The system  
automatically manages the acceleration and  
deceleration of the vehicle.  
As a precaution, we recommend setting  
a cruise speed fairly close to the current  
speed of your vehicle, to avoid any sudden  
acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle.  
Drive Assist Plus  
Only available on versions with the EAT8  
automatic gearbox and gear selector.  
This system automatically adjusts the speed and  
corrects the trajectory, using the Adaptive Cruise  
Control with Stop & Go function in conjunction  
with the Lane Positioning Assist.  
To modify the cruise speed setting using the  
speed suggested by the Speed Limit Recognition  
and Recommendation shown on the instrument  
panel:  
► Press button 5 once; a message is displayed  
to confirm the memorisation request.  
► Press button 5 again to save the suggested  
speed.  
With the Stop & Go function, the system  
manages the braking until the vehicle comes to a  
complete stop and the restarting of the vehicle.  
These two functions must be activated and in  
operation.  
This system is especially suitable for driving on  
motorways and main roads.  
For more information on Adaptive Cruise  
Control and Lane Positioning Assist, refer to  
the corresponding sections.  
The speed is immediately shown on the  
instrument panel as the new speed setting.  
To do so, it has a camera located at the top of  
the windscreen and, depending on version, a  
radar located in the front bumper.  
Switching off  
► Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "OFF" position:  
the cruise control information disappears from  
the screen.  
The system assists the driver by acting  
on the steering, acceleration and braking,  
within the limits of the laws of physics and the  
capabilities of the vehicle. Certain road  
infrastructure elements or vehicles present on  
the road may not be properly seen or may be  
poorly interpreted by the camera and radar,  
resulting in an unexpected change in  
direction, a lack of steering correction and/or  
inappropriate management of acceleration or  
braking.  
Primarily designed for driving on main  
roads and motorways, this system only  
works with moving vehicles driving in the  
same direction as your vehicle.  
Malfunction

(grey colour)  
This position is not necessarily the centre of the  
lane.  
The driver can feel movements in the steering  
wheel.  
The driver can change the position of the vehicle  
at any time, by turning the steering wheel.  
When the driver feels that the vehicle’s position  
is appropriate, whilst keeping hands on the  
steering wheel, they must release the pressure  
to let the system resume control of the steering,  
but the vehicle will not be automatically centred  
within the lane.  
Using a camera located at the top of the  
windscreen, the system identifies lane markings  
and steers the vehicle inside this lane to keep it  
in the lateral position chosen by the driver.  
This function is primarily suitable for driving on  
motorways and main roads.  
One or more operating conditions is not  
met; the system is paused.  
(green colour)  
All operating conditions are met; the

system  
(orange colour)  
System malfunction.  
The driver must act promptly if they  
believe that the traffic conditions or the  
state of the road surface require their  
intervention, by moving the steering wheel to  
temporarily suspend system operation. Any  
action on the brake pedal that results in cruise  
control being paused will also cause the  
system to be paused.  
If the driver no longer wishes to use the system  
for a while, they can deactivate it by pressing the  
button again.  
The indicator lamp in the button goes off and the  
symbol disappears from the instrument panel.  
Activation/Deactivation  
The system status is saved when the

holding the wheel firmly enough, it  
triggers a series of gradual alerts and then  
deactivates itself if there is no response from  
the driver.  
Cruise control  
The driver must hold the steering wheel properly.  
When cruise control is activated, the symbol is  
displayed in green: by small steering actions,  
the system directs the vehicle and keeps it in the  
position chosen by the driver, in the traffic lane.  
116  
Driving  
If the function is suspended due to the  
prolonged release of the force holding  
the steering wheel, you must reactivate it by  
pressing the button again.  
– Prolonged failure to detect one of the lane limit  
markings. In this case, the active lane departure  
warning function can take over, and the system

detected or a lane limit (e.g. grass border), it  
makes the necessary trajectory correction to  
return the vehicle to its initial path.  
The driver will notice a turning movement of the  
steering wheel.  
This system is particularly useful on motorways  
and main roads.  
This warning lamp flashes during  
trajectory correction.  
– Driving on racing circuits.  
– Driving on a rolling road.  
The driver can prevent the correction by  
keeping a firm grip on the wheel (during  
an avoiding manoeuvre, for example).  
The correction is interrupted immediately if  
the direction indicators are operated.  
Conditions for operation

Driving  
system considers that any change of trajectory is  
intentional and no correction is triggered during  
this period.  
For more information on the Blind Spot  
Monitoring System, refer to the corresponding  
section.  
However, with the Blind Spot Monitoring System  
system activated, if the driver starts changing  
lanes and another vehicle is detected in the  
vehicle's blind spot, the system will correct the  
trajectory even though the direction indicators  
are on.  
If the system detects that the driver is not  
holding the wheel firmly enough during  
an automatic correction of trajectory, it  
interrupts the correction. An alert is triggered  
to encourage the driver to take back control of  
the vehicle.

If the event of malfunction, this warning  
lamp comes on in the instrument panel,  
accompanied by the display of a message.  
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop to have the system checked.  
The system may suffer temporary  
interference in certain weather conditions  
(rain, hail, etc.).  
In particular, driving on a wet surface or  
moving from a dry area to a wet area can  
cause false alerts (for example, the presence  
of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot  
angle is interpreted as a vehicle).  
– Your vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a caravan,  
etc.  
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the  
sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow.  
No alert is triggered in the following conditions:

use of driving and manoeuvring aids.  
Active Blind Spot  
Monitoring System  
The vehicle has a multifunctional camera located  
at the top of the windscreen and, depending on  
version, a radar located in the front bumper.  
In addition to the fixed warning lamp in the door  
mirror on the side in question, a correction of  
trajectory will be felt if you attempt to cross  
a lane marking with the direction indicator  
activated, to help you avoid a collision.  
This system is the combination of the Active  
Lane Keeping Assistance and Blind Spot  
Monitoring System.  
These two functions must be activated and in  
operation.  
The speed of the vehicle must be between 40  
and 87 mph (65 and 140 km/h).  
These functions are especially suitable for  
driving on motorways and main roads.  
For more information on the Active Lane  
Keeping Assistance and Blind Spot  
Monitoring System, refer to the corresponding  
sections.  
This system:  
– warns the driver that their vehicle is at risk of  
collision with the vehicle in front, a pedestrian or,  
depending on version, a cyclist.  
– reduces the vehicle's speed to avoid a  
collision or limit its severity.  
This system does not avoid the need for  
vigilance on the part of the driver.  
This system is designed to assist the driver  
and improve road safety.  
It is the driver's responsibility to continuously  
monitor the state of the traffic, observing the  
driving regulations.  
The system also takes motorcyclists and  
animals into account; however, animals  
below 0.5 m tall and objects on the road are  
not necessarily detected.  
As soon as the system detects a  
potential obstacle, it prepares the braking  
circuit in case automatic braking is needed.  
This may cause a slight noise and a slight  
sensation of deceleration.  
This system is comprised of three functions:  
– Distance Alert.  
– Intelligent emergency braking assistance.  
– Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency  
braking).  
Deactivation / Activation  
By default, the system is automatically activated  
at every engine start.  
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle  
touch screen menu.  
124  
Driving  
Deactivation of the system is signalled by  
the illumination of this warning lamp,  
accompanied by the display of a message.  
It is possible that warnings are not given,  
are given too late or seem unjustified.  
The driver must always stay in control of the  
vehicle and be prepared to react at any time  
to avoid an accident.  
Operation  
6
Depending on the degree of risk of collision  
detected by the system and the alert trigger  
threshold chosen by the driver, several different  
levels of alert may be triggered and displayed in  
the instrument panel.  
The system takes account of the vehicle  
dynamics, the speed of your vehicle and the one  
in front, the environmental conditions and the  
operation of the vehicle (actions on the pedals,  
the steering wheel, etc.) to trigger the alert at the  
best moment.  
Level 1 (orange): visual alert only,  
indicating that the vehicle in front is very  
close.  
The message "Vehicle close" is displayed.  
Level 2 (red): visual and audible alert,  
indicating that a collision is imminent.  
The message "Brake!" is displayed.  
Level 3: in some cases, a vibration alert in the  
form of micro-braking can be given, confirming  
the risk of collision.  
Operating conditions and  
limits

– Carrying long objects on roof bars.  
– Vehicles with snow chains fitted.  
– Before using an automatic car wash, with the  
engine running.  
– Before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in  
a workshop.  
– Towed vehicle, engine running.  
– Following impact to the windscreen close to  
the detection camera.  
Distance Alert  
This function warns the driver that their vehicle is  
at risk of a collision with the vehicle in front, or a  
pedestrian or cyclist present in their traffic lane.  
Modifying the alert trigger threshold  
This trigger threshold determines the sensitivity  
with which the function warns of the risk of  
collision.  
The threshold is set via the  
Driving / Vehicle touch screen  
menu.  
► Select one of the three pre-defined  
thresholds:  
– "Distant".  
– “Normal".  
– “Close".  
The last threshold selected is memorised when  
the ignition is switched off.  
Where the speed of your vehicle is too  
high approaching another vehicle, the  
first level of alert may not be displayed: the  
level 2 alert may be displayed directly.  
Important: the level 1 alert is not displayed  
when there is a stationary obstacle or when  
the "Close" trigger threshold has been  
selected.  
The system is automatically deactivated  
after the use of certain "space-saver"  
type spare wheels is detected (smaller  
diameter).  
The system is automatically deactivated  
after detection of a fault with the brake pedal  
switch or with at least two brake lamps.

Driving  
Operation  
The system operates subject to the following  
conditions:  
The brake pedal may vibrate slightly  
while the function is operating.  
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,  
automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2  
seconds.  
Intelligent emergency  
braking assistance  
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid a  
collision, this system will supplement the braking,  
within the limits of the laws of physics.  
This assistance will only be provided if the driver  
presses the brake pedal.  
– The vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph  
(60 km/h) when a pedestrian is detected.  
– The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph  
(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle or a cyclist  
is detected.  
– The vehicle's speed is between 6 mph and  
53 mph (10 km/h and 85 km/h) (versions with  
camera only) or 87 mph (140 km/h) (versions  
with camera and radar) when a moving vehicle  
is detected.  
This warning lamp immediately flashes  
(for approximately 10 seconds) when the  
function acts on the vehicle’s braking.  
With an automatic gearbox or drive selector, in  
the event of automatic emergency braking until  
the vehicle comes to a complete stop, keep the  
brake pedal pressed down to prevent the vehicle  
from moving off again.  
Malfunction  
In the event of a system malfunction, this  
warning lamp comes on on the instrument  
panel, accompanied by an onscreen message  
and an audible signal.  
Active Safety Brake  
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop to have the system checked.  
If these warning lamps come on  
after the engine has been switched  
off and then restarted, contact a PEUGEOT  
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the  
system checked.  
Distraction detection  
Refer to the General recommendations on the  
use of driving and manoeuvring aids.  
Take a break in case of feeling tired or at least  
every 2 hours.  
The function comprises the "Driver Attention  
Alert" system combined with the "Driver Attention  
Alert by camera" system.  
With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic  
emergency braking until the vehicle comes to a  
complete stop, the engine may stall.  
The driver can maintain control of the  
vehicle at any time by firmly turning the  
steering wheel and/or firmly depressing the  
accelerator pedal.  
This function, also called automatic emergency  
braking, intervenes following the alerts if the  
driver does not react quickly enough and does  
not operate the vehicle's brakes.  
It aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a  
collision where the driver fails to react.  
126  
Driving  
These systems are in no way designed  
to keep the driver awake or to prevent  
the driver from falling asleep at the wheel.  
It is the driver’s responsibility to stop if feeling  
tired.  
As soon as the speed of the vehicle  
drops below 40 mph (65 km/h), the  
system goes into standby.  
The driving time is counted again once the  
speed is above 40 mph (65 km/h).

Driver Attention Alert by  
camera  
The following situations may interfere  
with the operation of the system or  
prevent it from working:  
– lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow,  
mud) or multiple (roadworks);  
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle  
touch screen menu.  
The state of the system stays in the memory  
when the ignition is switched off.  
Driver Attention Alert  
– close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings  
not detected);  
– roads that are narrow, winding, etc.  
The system triggers an alert as soon as it  
detects that the driver has not taken a  
break after two hours of driving at a speed above  
40 mph (65 km/h).  
This alert is issued via the display of a message  
encouraging the driver to take a break,  
accompanied by an audible signal.  
If the driver does not follow this advice, the alert  
is repeated hourly until the vehicle is stopped.  
The system resets itself if one of the following  
conditions is met:  
– With the engine running, the vehicle has been  
stationary for more than 15 minutes.  
– The ignition has been switched off for a few  
minutes.  
Parking sensors  
Refer to the General recommendations on the  
use of driving and manoeuvring aids.  
Using a camera placed at the top of the  
windscreen, the system assesses the  
driver's level of vigilance, fatigue or distraction by  
identifying variations in trajectory compared to  
the lane markings.  
This system is particularly suited to fast roads  
(speed higher than 40 mph (65 km/h)).  
At a first-level alert, the driver is warned by the  
“Take care!” message, accompanied by an  
audible signal.  
– The driver's seat belt is unfastened and their  
door is opened.  
Using sensors located in the bumper, this  
system signals the proximity of obstacles  
(e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier) present in  
their field of detection.  
After three first-level alerts, the system triggers  
a further alert with the message "Dangerous

of reverse gear.  
Visual assistance  
Audible assistance  
Using four additional sensors located on the  
sides of the bumpers, the system records the  
position of obstacles during the manoeuvre and  
indicates them when they are located alongside  
the vehicle.  
This supplements the audible signal by  
displaying bars on the screen that represent the  
distance between the obstacle and the vehicle  
(white: more distant, orange: close, red: very  
close).  
Only fixed obstacles are indicated  
correctly. Moving obstacles detected at  
the beginning of the manoeuvre may be  
indicated mistakenly, while moving obstacles  
that appear alongside the vehicle but were  
not previously recorded will not be indicated.  
The system signals the presence of obstacles  
within the sensors’ detection zone.  
The proximity information is given by an  
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of  
which increases as the vehicle approaches the  
obstacle.  
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger"  
symbol is displayed on the screen.  
Front parking sensors  
When the distance between the vehicle and  
the obstacle becomes less than about thirty  
centimetres, the audible signal becomes  
continuous.  
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or  
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is  
located.  
Supplementing the rear parking sensors, the  
front parking sensors are triggered when an  
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the  
vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).  
Front parking sensor operation is suspended if  
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in  
forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected  
or the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).  
Objects memorised during the  
manoeuvre will no longer be stored after  
switching off the ignition.

the driver controls the driving direction, gear  
changes, acceleration and braking.  
Parking sensors also provide additional  
information about the area around the vehicle.  
180° view  
Zoom view  
To help the driver monitor the manoeuvre,  
the system automatically triggers the display  
of Visiopark 1 and activates the parking sensors.  
The system measures the available parking  
spaces and calculates the distances to obstacles  
using ultrasonic sensors built into the front and  
rear bumpers of the vehicle.  
The camera records the vehicle's surroundings  
during the manoeuvre in order to create a  
view from above the rear of the vehicle in its  
near surroundings, allowing the vehicle to be  
manoeuvred around nearby obstacles.  
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the

insufficient.  
– The system is not designed for performing the  
parking manoeuvre on a sharp bend.  
– The system does not detect spaces that  
are much larger than the vehicle itself or that  
are delimited by obstacles that are too low  
(pavements, studs, etc.) or too thin (trees, posts,  
wire fences, etc.).  
– If the boot is heavily loaded, the tilt of the  
vehicle towards the rear may interfere with the  
distance measurements.

Full Park Assist  
Refer to the General recommendations on the  
use of driving and manoeuvring aids.  
This system provides active parking assistance  
for vehicles fitted with the EAT8 automatic  
gearbox or a gear selector: it detects a free  
"parallel" or "bay" parking space and then  
operates the vehicle, parking it with no need for  
driver intervention. It also allows you to drive out  
of a "parallel parking" space automatically.  
The system controls the steering, direction,  
acceleration and braking. The system measures  
the available parking spaces and calculates  
the distances to obstacles using 12 ultrasonic  
sensors built into the front and rear bumpers of  
the vehicle.  
Malfunctions  
Do not use the function under the  
following exterior conditions:  
– Alongside a soft shoulder (e.g. ditch) or  
quay or on the edge of a drop.  
When the function is not activated, the  
temporary flashing of this indicator lamp  
and an audible signal indicate a system  
malfunction.  
– When the road surface is slippery (e.g. ice).  
If the malfunction occurs while the system is in  
use, the indicator lamp goes off.  
If the parking sensor malfunction  
occurs during use, indicated by  
one of these warning lamps coming on, it causes  
the function to deactivate.  
In the event of a malfunction, have the system  
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop.  
To help the driver monitor the successful  
completion of the manoeuvre, the system  
automatically displays the Visiopark 1 and  
activates the parking sensors.  
If any of the following malfunctions  
occurs, do not use the system:  
– If a tyre is under-inflated.  
– If one of the bumpers is damaged.  
– If one of the cameras is faulty.
