Get Driving Guide for Peugeot 2008 SUV Second Generation (2019-2025)

Driving

Do not park the vehicle or leave the

engine running on a ﬂammable

surface (e.g. dry grass, dead leaves).The

vehicle exhaust system is very hot, even

several minutes after the engine stops. Risk

of ﬁre!

On ﬂooded roads

Driving recommendations

6

We strongly advise against driving on ﬂooded

roads, as this could cause serious damage to the

engine or gearbox, as well as to your vehicle's

electrical systems.

► 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.

► Stop the vehicle before performing operations

that require sustained attention (e.g. settings).

► During long trips, take a break every 2 hours.

Never drive on surfaces covered with

vegetation (tall grass, accumulated

dead leaves, crops, debris) such as a ﬁeld,

a country lane overgrown with bushes or a

grassy verge.

This vegetation could come into contact with

the vehicle's exhaust system or other systems

which are very hot. Risk of ﬁre!

If the vehicle absolutely must drive through a

ﬂooded section of road:

Important!

► Check that the depth of the water does not

exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that

might be generated by other users.

Never leave the engine running in a

closed space without suﬃcient

ventilation. Internal combustion engines emit

toxic exhaust gases such as carbon

Make sure you do not leave any item in

the passenger compartment which could

act like a magnifying glass under the eﬀect of

the sun's rays and cause a ﬁre - risk of ﬁre or

damage to interior surfaces!

► 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.

monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!

In very 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).

Never leave the 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

or drive selector into neutral or position N or P

(depending on version).

Never drive with the parking brake

applied. Risk of overheating and

damaging the braking system!

Never leave children inside the vehicle

unsupervised.

Driving

air density at high altitudes decreases engine

performance.

When driving

Cooling

Noise (Electric)

On the outside

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.

► Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to

limit the amount of heating produced.

► Pay constant 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.

Due to the vehicle’s quiet operation when

driving, the driver must 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.

New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the

vehicle has driven at least 620 miles

(1,000 kilometres).

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.

Cooling the traction battery

The cooling fan comes on during

charging to cool the on-board charger and the

traction battery.

Before setting oﬀ

Nose weight

On the inside

► 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.

During use, you may hear certain perfectly

normal noises speciﬁc to electric vehicles, such

as:

– Traction battery relay when starting.

– Vacuum pump when braking.

Brakes

Using the engine brake is recommended to limit

the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances

are increased when towing a trailer.

– Vehicle tyres or aerodynamics when driving.

– Jolting and knocking noise during hill starts.

Tyres

Side wind

► Check the tyre pressures of the towing

vehicle and of the trailer, observing the

recommended pressures.

Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more

susceptible to wind when towing.

Towing

Driving with a trailer places greater

demands on the towing vehicle and

particular care must be taken.

Lighting

Anti-theft protection

► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer

and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.

Electronic immobiliser

The keys contain a code, which must be

recognised by the vehicle before starting is

possible.

If a genuine PEUGEOT towing device is

used, the rear parking sensors will be

deactivated automatically to avoid the audible

signal.

Do not exceed the maximum towable

weights.

At altitude: reduce the maximum load by

10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower

For more information on Advanced Grip

Control, refer to the corresponding section.

Whenever the ignition is switched on,

The Brake function emulates engine braking,

slowing the vehicle with no need to depress the

brake pedal. The vehicle slows more quickly

when the driver releases the accelerator pedal.

The energy recovered when the accelerator

pedal is released is then used to partially

recharge the traction battery, thereby increasing

the vehicle's driving range.

The driver may experience a diﬀerent

sensation when depressing the brake

pedal compared to a vehicle without

regenerative braking.

Driving modes

The driving modes available depend on the

engine and equipment of the vehicle.

Driving modes are selected using the following

control:

The resulting deceleration of the vehicle

does not cause the brake lamps to come

Stop & Start

6

This system is designed to reduce fuel

consumption by recommending the most suitable

gear.

The Stop & Start function puts the engine

temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during

phases when the vehicle is stationary (e.g. red

lights, traﬃc jams). The engine automatically

restarts - START mode - as soon as the driver

indicates the intention of moving oﬀ again.

Primarily designed for urban use, the function

is intended to reduce fuel consumption and

exhaust emissions as well as the noise level

when stationary.

Operation

Depending on the driving situation and

the vehicle's equipment, the system may

recommend skipping one or more gears.

Gear engagement recommendations are

not to be considered mandatory. Indeed, the

conﬁguration of the road, the traﬃc density and

safety remain determining factors when choosing

the best gear. Therefore, the driver remains

responsible for deciding whether or not to follow

the system’s advice.

Driving on ﬂooded roads

Before entering into a ﬂooded area, it is

strongly recommended that you deactivate

the Stop & Start system.

For more information on Driving

12 V battery

Time counter

The Stop & Start system requires a

12 V battery of speciﬁc technology and

speciﬁcation.

All work must be carried out only by a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualiﬁed workshop

A time counter adds up the time spent in standby

during the journey. It is reset to zero every time

the ignition is switched on.

Special cases:

The engine will not go into standby if the

conditions for operation are not met and in the

following cases:

– Steep slope (ascending or descending).

– Vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph (10 km/h)

since the last engine start (with the key or the

START/STOP button).

– Needed to maintain a comfortable temperature

in the passenger compartment.

– Demisting active.

– With reverse gear engaged.

Tyre under-inﬂation

detection

This system alerts the driver if one or more tyres

suﬀer a drop in pressure.

Special cases

The engine will restart automatically if the

conditions for operation 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

for a few seconds, then goes oﬀ.

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.

In these cases, this indicator lamp ﬂashes

for a few seconds, then goes oﬀ.

After the engine has restarted, STOP

mode is not available until the vehicle

has reached a speed of 5 mph (8 km/h).

Malfunctions

In the event of a fault with the system, this

warning lamp ﬂashes for a few moments

on the instrument panel, then remains on,

accompanied by the display of a message.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualiﬁed workshop.

During parking manoeuvres, STOP mode

is not available for a few seconds after

coming out of reverse gear or turning the

steering wheel.

102

Driving

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):

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 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.

The alert is kept active until the system is

reinitialised.

– worsens road-holding.

► Reduce speed immediately, avoid excessive

steering movements and avoid sudden braking.

► Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do

so.

Reinitialisation

► The system must be reinitialised after any

adjustment to the pressure of one or more tyres,

and after changing one or more wheels.

– 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.

The loss of pressure detected may not

always cause visible deformation of the

tyre.

Before reinitialising the system, make

sure that the pressures of the four tyres

are correct for the conditions of use of the

vehicle and conform to the values written on

the tyre pressure label.

Check the pressures of the four tyres before

performing the reinitialisation.

The system does not advise if a pressure is

incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.

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).

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.

With the vehicle stationary, the system is

reinitialised via the Driving/Vehicle touch

screen menu.

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

Malfunction

In the event of a malfunction, these

warning lamps light up on the

Driving

A message appears, accompanied by an audible

signal.

In this case, the tyre under-inﬂation monitoring

function is no longer performed.

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualiﬁed workshop.

It is the driver's responsibility to constantly

monitor traﬃc conditions, assess the distance

and relative speed of other vehicles, and

anticipate their manoeuvres before using the

direction indicator and changing lanes.

These systems do not make it possible to

exceed 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.

Non-standard or 'space-saver' spare

wheel

Driving aids

The use of this type of spare wheel may

suspend tyre pressure monitoring.

In this case, the malfunction warning lamp

comes on and disappears once the wheel

has been replaced by one of uniform size (the

same as the others), the pressure readjusted

and the reinitialisation carried out.

You should hold the steering wheel with

both hands, always use the door and interior

mirrors, always leave your feet close to the

pedals and take a break every 2 hours.

In humid and cold weather, demist the

windscreen regularly.

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.

Manoeuvring aids

The driver must always check the

surroundings of the vehicle before and during

the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the

mirrors.

Driving and manoeuvring

aids - General

recommendations

Radar(s)

The operation of the radar(s), along with

any associated functions, may be aﬀected

by the accumulation of dirt (e.g. mud, ice),

in poor weather conditions (e.g. heavy rain,

snow), or if the bumpers are damaged.

If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact

a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualiﬁed workshop;

certain types of paint could interfere with the

operation of the radar(s).

Driving and manoeuvring aids cannot, in

any circumstances, replace the need for

vigilance on the part of the driver.

The driver must comply with the Highway

Code, must remain in control of the vehicle in

all circumstances and must be able to retake

control of it at all times. The driver must adapt

the speed to climatic conditions, traﬃc and

the state of the road.

Other cameras

The images from the camera(s)

displayed on the touch screen or on the

instrument panel may be distorted by the

terrain.

In the presence of areas in shade, or in

conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate

104

Driving

lighting, the image may be darkened and with

lower contrast.

Obstacles may appear further away than they

actually are.

When washing your vehicle at high pressure,

direct the spray from at least 30 cm away

from the radar, sensors and cameras.

Mats

Sensors

The use of mats not approved by

PEUGEOT may interfere with the operation of

the speed limiter or cruise control.

To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:

– Ensure that the mat is secured correctly.

– Never ﬁt one mat on top of another.

The operation of the sensors, as well as

any associated functions, may be disrupted

by noise pollution 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.

This system displays the maximum speed

authorised locally on the instrument panel, using:

– Speed limit signs detected by the camera.

– Speed limit information from the navigation

system’s mapping.

– Signs indicating a shared traﬃc zone detected

by the camera (depending on version).

Units of speed

Ensure that the units of speed displayed

on the instrument panel (mph or km/h) are

those for the country you are driving in.

If this is not the case, when the vehicle is

stationary, set the display to the required

units of speed so that it complies with what is

authorised locally.

Operating limits

Cruise control operates by day and night, in dry

weather or moderate rainfall.

Certain situations cannot be managed by the

system and require driver intervention.

Cases not taken into account by the system:

– Pedestrians, cyclists, animals.

– Stationary vehicles (e.g. traﬃc jams,

breakdown).

– When following a narrow vehicle.

Reactivate the system when conditions allow.

Situations in which the driver is prompted to

immediately resume control:

– Excessively sharp deceleration by the vehicle

in front of you.

– Brake lamps not working.

If the vehicle has undergone any of the

following modiﬁcations, do not use the

system:

(grey colour)

One or more operating conditions is not

met; the system is paused.

(green colour)

All operating conditions are met; the

system is active.

The driver can feel movements in the steering

wheel.

The system identiﬁes the limits of the traﬃc

lane and steers the vehicle inside this lane to

maintain it in the lateral position chosen by the

driver.

To do this, the system uses a camera placed on

the upper part of the windscreen.

The driver can change the position of the vehicle

at any time, by turning the steering wheel, which

suspends the function. The driver positions the

vehicle where they wish to in the lane. When

the driver feels that the vehicle’s position is

appropriate, they maintain it until the function

is reactivated. The system regains control by

regulating on the new deﬁned position.

This function is primarily suitable for driving on

motorways and main roads.

Malfunction

If the event of a malfunction, this warning

lamp lights up on the instrument panel,

accompanied by the display of a message.

123

Driving

Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a

qualiﬁed workshop.

The system may be temporarily disturbed

by certain climatic conditions (e.g. rain,

hail).

In particular, driving on a wet road or going

from a dry to a wet area can cause false

alerts (e.g. presence of a cloud of water

droplets in the blind spot interpreted as a

vehicle).

In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the

sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow.

Take care not to cover the warning zone in

the door mirrors, or the detection zones on

the front and rear bumpers with adhesive

labels or other objects; they may hamper

correct operation of the system.

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.

The vehicle has a multifunction camera located

at the top of the windscreen and, depending on

version, a radar located in the front bumper.

The speed will be reduced by a

maximum of 16 mph (25 km/h) for

versions with camera only, or by a maximum

of 31 mph (50 km/h) for versions with camera

and radar.

This system does not replace the need

for vigilance on the part of the driver.

This system is designed to assist the driver

and improve road safety.

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.

It is the driver's responsibility to continuously

monitor traﬃc conditions in accordance with

applicable driving regulations.

Active Safety Brake with

Collision Risk Alert and

Intelligent emergency

braking assistance

This system is comprised of three functions:

– Collision Risk Alert.

– Intelligent emergency braking assistance

(iEBA).

– Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency

braking).

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.

For more information, refer to the

General recommendations on the use

of driving and manoeuvring aids.

Deactivation/Activation

By default, the system is automatically activated

at every engine start.

The settings are changed via the

– Following an impact to the windscreen close to

the detection camera.

Collision Risk Alert

This function warns the driver that their vehicle

is at risk of a collision with the vehicle in front, or

with a pedestrian or cyclist present in their traﬃc

lane.

The message "Brake!" is displayed.

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 "Near" trigger threshold has been

selected.

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: "Far", "Normal" or "Close".

The last threshold selected is memorised when

the ignition is switched oﬀ.

The system is automatically deactivated

when the use of certain types of

"space-saver" spare wheel (smaller diameter)

is detected, or if a fault with the brake pedal

switch or at least two brake lamps is detected.

Intelligent emergency

braking assistance (iEBA)

This function supplements braking in the event

that the driver brakes, but not enough to avoid a

collision.

the function applies the vehicle’s brakes.

With an automatic gearbox or drive selector,

in the event of automatic emergency braking

bringing the vehicle to a complete stop, keep the

brake pedal depressed to prevent the vehicle

from moving oﬀ again.

With a manual gearbox, in the event of automatic

emergency braking bringing the vehicle 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.

Distraction detection

For more information, refer to the

General recommendations on the use

of driving and manoeuvring aids.

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.

The system aims to reduce the speed of impact

or avoid a collision where the driver fails to react.

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.

The function comprises the "Driver Attention

Warning" system combined with the "Driver

Attention Warning by Camera" system.

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.

Operation

The system operates subject to the following

conditions:

– At reduced speed in an urban environment,

when a stationary vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist

is detected.

The following situations may interfere

with the operation of the system or

prevent it from working:

The state of the system is memorised when the

ignition is switched oﬀ.

– lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow,

mud) or multiple (roadworks);

– close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings

not detected);

Driver Attention Warning

The system triggers an alert when it

detects that the driver has not taken a

break after two hours of driving at a speed above

43 mph (70 km/h).

– roads that are narrow, winding, etc.

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

The system assesses the driver's level of

alertness, fatigue and distraction by

identifying trajectory changes in relation to the

lane markings.

To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on

the upper part of the windscreen.

This system is particularly suited to fast roads

(speed higher than 43 mph (70 km/h)).

At a ﬁrst alert level, the driver is warned by the

message "Be vigilant!", accompanied by an

audible signal.

For more information, refer to the

General recommendations on the use

of driving and manoeuvring aids.

– The driver's seat belt is unfastened and their

door is opened.

As soon as the speed of the vehicle

drops below 43 mph (70 km/h), the

system goes into standby.

Driving time starts being counted again once

the speed reaches above 43 mph (70 km/h).

After three ﬁrst-level alerts, the system triggers

a further alert with the message "Dangerous

driving: take a break", accompanied by a more

pronounced audible signal.

This system detects and signals the proximity of

obstacles (e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier)

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 whose location

represents 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 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.

180° view

This system provides active parking assistance:

it detects a parking space and then steers in the

appropriate direction to park in the space while

the driver controls the driving direction, gear

changes, acceleration and braking.

Zoom view

To help the driver monitor the manoeuvre,

the system automatically triggers the display

from the Visiopark 1 function 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

view selection menu.

The 180° view facilitates reversing out of a

parking space, making it possible to see the
