the rear when the head restraints are

removed; the head restraints should be in

place and in the high position.

Rear head restraints

The head restraint for the centre seat

and those for the outer seats are not

interchangeable.

The electrochrome system uses a sensor that

detects the level of exterior brightness and that

coming from the rear of the vehicle, in order to

automatically and gradually switch between day

and night usage.

Folding the backrests

Manoeuvring the backrests should only

be done when the vehicle is stationary.

To ensure optimum visibility while

manoeuvring, the mirror automatically

brightens when reverse gear is engaged.

The system is deactivated if the load in the

boot exceeds the height of the load space

cover or if the load space cover has items

placed on it.

– A high position, for when the seat is in use:

not in use:

► Press the lug A to release the head

restraint and push it down.

First steps:

► Lower the head restraints.

► If necessary, move the front seats forward.

with the folding of the backrests (e.g. clothing,

luggage).

Advice

First check that the outer seat belts are

lying vertically ﬂat alongside the backrest

latching rings.

The air circulating in the passenger compartment

is ﬁltered and originates either from the

exterior, via the grille located at the base of the

windscreen, or from the inside in air recirculation

mode.

Using the ventilation and air

conditioning system

► To ensure that air is distributed evenly,

keep the external air intake grilles at the base

of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the

air outlets and the air extractor in the boot

free from obstructions.

► Do not cover the sunshine sensor located

on the dashboard; this sensor is used to

regulate the automatic air conditioning

system.

Controls

Depending on version, the controls are

accessible in the Climate touch screen menu

or are grouped together on the centre console

panel.

Air distribution

► Operate the air conditioning system for at

least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to

keep it in good working order.

► If the system does not produce cold air,

switch it oﬀ and contact a PEUGEOT dealer

or a qualiﬁed workshop.

When towing a large load on a steep gradient

in high temperatures, switching oﬀ the air

conditioning increases the available engine

power, enhancing the towing capacity.

► Put the backrest 2 in the upright position and

push it ﬁrmly to latch it home.

► Check that the red indicator is no longer

visible in the release grip 1.

► Ensure that the outer seat belts were not

trapped during the operation.
