MY CAR USER MANUAL

Driving for Your Peugeot 308 4 Door Second Genration (2014-2020)

Driving  
Never leave a vehicle unsupervised 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.  
If you are obliged to drive on a flooded road:  
Driving recommendations  
-
check that the depth of water does not  
exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that  
might be generated by other users,  
Observe the driving regulations and remain  
vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.  
Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your  
hands on the wheel so that you are ready to  
react at any time to any eventuality.  
As a safety measure, the driver should only  
carry out any operations that require close  
attention when the vehicle is stationary.  
On a long journey, taking a break every two  
hours is strongly recommended.  
-
-
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 on the state of your vehicle, contact  
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.  
In case of towing  
Driving with a trailer places greater  
demands on the towing vehicle and  
requires extra care from the driver.  
In difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate  
the need to brake and increase the distance  
from other vehicles.  
Side wind  
F Take into account the increased sensitivity  
Driving on flooded roads  
to wind.

Important!  
Cooling  
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.  
Never drive with the parking brake applied  
– Risk of overheating and damage to the  
braking system!  
As the exhaust system of your vehicle  
is very hot, even several minutes after  
switching off the engine, never park or run  
the engine on inflammable surfaces (dry  
grass, fallen leaves, etc.) – Risk of fire!  
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the  
temperature of the coolant.  
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling  
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.  
F To lower the engine speed, reduce your  
speed.  
The maximum towable load on an incline  
depends on the gradient and the exterior  
temperature.  
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant  
temperature.

Braking  
The key contains an electronic chip which has  
a special code. When the ignition is switched  
on, this code must be recognised in order for  
starting to be possible.  
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.  
To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of  
engine braking is recommended.  
This electronic engine immobiliser locks the  
engine management system a few minutes  
after the ignition is switched off, and prevents  
the engine being started by anyone who does  
not have the key.

the need to observe speed limits, nor the  
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.  
As a safety measure, you are advised to  
keep your feet near the pedals at all times.  
The system automatically maintains  
the vehicle’s cruising speed at a  
setting programmed by the driver,  
without using the accelerator pedal.

Driving  
Principle of operation  
Adaptive cruise control  
This system is a driving aid that cannot,  
in any circumstances, replace the need to  
observe speed limits and safety distances,  
nor the need for vigilance on the part of  
the driver.  
Some vehicles present on the road may  
not be properly seen or may be poorly  
interpreted by the camera and/or radar  
(e.g. a lorry), which may lead to a poor  
assessment of the distances and lead to  
the vehicle inappropriately accelerating or  
braking.  
The driver must be ready at all times  
to retake control of their vehicle by  
permanently holding both hands on the  
steering wheel and keeping their feet near  
the brake and accelerator pedals.  
The system automatically adapts the speed of  
your vehicle to that of the vehicle in front, to  
maintain a constant distance.  
If the vehicle in front is driving more slowly, the  
system slows, or even stops your vehicle (with  
the EAT8 automatic gearbox or the BlueHDi  
150 S&S EAT6 engine), using engine braking  
and the braking system.  
If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes  
lane, the cruise control progressively  
accelerates your vehicle to return to the  
programmed speed.  
If the driver operates a direction indicator to  
overtake a slower vehicle, the cruise control  
allows your vehicle to temporarily approach  
the vehicle in front to assist the overtaking  
manoeuvre, though never exceeding the  
programmed speed.  
This system provides the following  
functions:  
-
Automatically maintains the vehicle  
at the speed set by the driver.  
Automatic adjustment of the  
distance between your vehicle and  
the one in front.  
-
With the EAT8 automatic gearbox or with the  
BlueHDi 150 S&S EAT6 engine, automatic  
adjustment can cause your vehicle to come to a  
complete stop.  
It manages the acceleration and deceleration  
of the vehicle by automatically acting on the  
engine and the braking system.  
Steering mounted control  
The brake lamps illuminate as soon as  
the braking system is activated with  
deceleration of the vehicle.  
To do so, it has a radar located in the front  
bumper.  
Primarily designed for driving on main  
roads and motorways, this system only  
works on moving vehicles, driving in the  
same direction as your vehicle.

Driving  
Malfunction  
The cruise control operates by day and  
night, in fog or moderate rainfall.  
However, it is strongly recommended that  
you always keep a safe distance from  
vehicles ahead, according to the driving  
conditions, the weather and the road  
surface.  
Use the cruise control only where the  
driving conditions allow running at a  
constant speed and keeping an adequate  
safety distance.  
Do not activate the cruise control in urban  
areas where pedestrians are likely to  
cross the road, in heavy traffic (except for  
versions with EAT8 gearbox), on winding  
or steep roads, on slippery or flooded  
roads, when there is snowfall, if the front  
bumper is damaged or when the brake  
lamps have failed.  
In certain circumstances, it may not  
be possible for the speed setting to be  
maintained or even reached: loaded  
vehicle, ascending a steep hill, etc.  
The system is not intended for the  
following situations:  
-
the front end of the vehicle has been  
modified (addition of long-range  
headlamps, painting of the front  
bumper),  
If the cruise control  
malfunctions, dashes are  
displayed instead of the  
cruise control speed setting.  
-
-
-
driving on a racing track,  
driving on a rolling road,  
use of snow chains, non-slip covers or  
studded tyres.  
If this warning lamp comes  
on, accompanied by an alert  
message and an audible  
signal, this confirms a  
malfunction.  
The use of mats not approved by  
PEUGEOT may interfere with the  
operation of the cruise control.  
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT  
dealer or a qualified workshop.  
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:  
-
-
ensure that the mat is secured  
correctly,  
never fit one mat on top of another.  
The adaptive cruise control deactivates  
automatically if the use of a "space-saver"  
type spare wheel is detected or if there is  
a malfunction on the lateral brake lamps or  
trailer brake lamps (for approved trailers).  
The following situations may interfere with  
the operation of the system or prevent it  
from working:  
6
-
poor visibility (inadequate street  
lighting, falling snow, heavy rain, dense  
fog, etc.),  
-
dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming  
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp  
road, leaving a tunnel, alternating  
shade and light, etc.),  
-
camera or radar masked (mud, frost,  
snow, condensation, etc.).  
In these situations, detection performance  
may be reduced.  
145  
Driving  
The vehicle has a camera located at the top of  
the windscreen, and a radar located in the front  
bumper.  
All passenger seat belts must be fastened.  
Driving at a steady speed on roads with few

Active Safety Brake  
with Distance Alert and  
Intelligent emergency  
braking assistance  
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.  
This system does not replace the need for  
vigilance on the part of the driver.  
The following situations may interfere with  
the operation of the system or prevent it  
from working:  
-
poor visibility (inadequate street  
lighting, falling snow, heavy rain, dense  
fog, etc.),  
The system allows:  
-
the driver to be warned that their vehicle is  
at risk of collision with the vehicle in front,  
a collision to be prevented, or its severity to  
be limited, by reducing the vehicle’s speed.  
-
dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming  
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp  
road, leaving a tunnel, alternating  
shade and light, etc.),  
-
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 a driving aid that includes three  
functions:  
-
camera or radar obstructed (mud, frost,  
snow, condensation, etc.).  
-
Distance Alert (alert if there is a risk of  
collision),  
On versions with the camera alone, this  
message indicates to you that the camera  
is obstructed: "Driving aids camera:  
Visibility limited, see user guide".  
In these situations, detection performance  
may be reduced.

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.  
This threshold determines how you wish to be  
warned of the presence of a vehicle moving  
or stationary in front of you, or a pedestrian  
present in your traffic lane.  
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the  
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could  
conceal the detection camera.  
It is possible that warnings are not given,  
are given too late or seem unjustified.  
Consequently, always stay in control of  
your vehicle and be prepared to react at  
any time to avoid an accident.  
You can select one of three predefined  
thresholds:  
-
-
-
"Distant",  
"Normal",  
"Close".  
The last threshold selected is kept in memory  
when the ignition is switched off.  
In the following cases, deactivating the system  
via the vehicle's configuration menu is advised:  
-
-
towing a trailer,  
carrying long objects on roof bars or roof  
rack,  
with snow chains fitted,  
before using an automatic car wash, with  
the engine running,  
Operation  
After an impact, the function automatically  
stops operating. Contact a PEUGEOT  
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the  
system checked.  
Depending on the degree of risk of collision  
detected by the system and the alert threshold  
chosen by the driver, different levels of alert can be  
triggered and displayed in the instrument panel.

They take account of the vehicle dynamics,  
the speed of your vehicle and the one in front,  
the environmental conditions, the operation of  
the vehicle (cornering, pedals pressed, etc.) to  
trigger the alert at the best moment.

-
It warns the driver if their vehicle is at risk of  
collision with the vehicle in front or a pedestrian  
present in their traffic lane.  
147

Level 1 (orange): visual alert only,  
signalling to you that the vehicle in  
front is very close.  
The message "Vehicle close" is  
displayed.  
-
-
The vehicle's speed does not exceed 50 mph  
(80 km/h) when a stationary vehicle is  
detected.  
The vehicle's speed must be between 6 mph  
and 87 mph (10 km/h and 140 km/h) when a  
moving vehicle is detected.  
Active Safety Brake  
If the camera and/or radar have  
confirmed the presence of a vehicle  
or a pedestrian, this warning lamp  
flashes once the function is acting  
on the vehicle's brakes.  
Level 2 (red): visual and audible  
alert, warning you that a collision is  
imminent.  
The message "Brake!" is displayed.  
With an automatic gearbox, 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  
starting off again.  
With a manual gearbox, in the event of  
automatic emergency braking until the vehicle  
comes to a complete stop, the engine may stall.  
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: alert level 1 is never displayed  
for a stationary obstacle or when the  
"Close" trigger threshold has been  
selected.  
This function, also called automatic emergency  
braking, intervenes following the alert 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  
frontal collision by your vehicle where the driver  
fails to react.  
The driver can maintain control of the  
vehicle at any time by sharply turning  
the steering wheel and/or pressing the  
accelerator pedal.  
Intelligent emergency  
braking assistance  
Operation  
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 you  
press the brake pedal.  
Operation of the function may be felt by  
slight vibration in the brake pedal.  
If the vehicle comes to a complete stop,  
the automatic braking is maintained for 1  
to 2 seconds.  
The system operates under the following  
conditions:  
-
The vehicle's speed does not exceed 37 mph

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop to have the system checked.  
Fatigue detection system

The system resets itself if one of the following  
conditions is met:  
least every two hours.

-
engine running, the vehicle has been  
stationary for more than 15 minutes,  
the ignition has been switched off for a few  
minutes,  
the driver's seat belt is unfastened and their  
door is open.  
These systems cannot in any circumstances  
replace the need for vigilance on the part  
of the driver who must remain in control  
of their decisions. In no case can these  
systems keep the driver awake or prevent  
them from falling asleep at the wheel.  
It is the driver’s responsibility to stop if they  
feel tired.  
Using a camera placed at the top of the  
windscreen, the system assesses the  
driver's level of vigilance by identifying  
variations in trajectory compared to the  
lane markings.  
6
As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops  
below 40 mph (65 km/h), the system goes  
into standby.  
This system is particularly suited to fast roads  
(speed faster than 40 mph (65 km/h)).  
Activation/Deactivation  
The driving time is counted again once the  
speed is above 40 mph (65 km/h).  
When the system interprets the behaviour of  
the vehicle as indicating a certain fatigue or  
inattention threshold on the part of the driver, it  
triggers the first level of alert.  
The driver is then alerted by the message  
"Take care!", accompanied by an audible  
signal.  
The system is activated or deactivated via the  
vehicle configuration menu.  
For more information on the menu, refer to the  
part covering your screen in the "Instruments"  
section.  
The state of the system stays in the memory  
when the ignition is switched off.  
149  
Driving  
After three first level alerts, the system triggers  
a new alert with the message "Take a break!",  
accompanied by a more pronounced audible  
signal.  
Conditions for operation  
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.  
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the  
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could  
conceal the detection camera.  
The speed of the vehicle must be between  
40 mph and 112 mph (65 km/h and 180 km/h).  
The driver must hold the steering wheel with both  
hands.  
The change of trajectory must not be  
accompanied by operation of the direction  
indicators.  
In certain driving conditions (poor road  
surface or strong winds), the system may  
give alerts independent of the driver's  
level of vigilance.  
The ESC system must be activated and fault-free.  
The following situations may interfere with  
the operation of the system or prevent it  
working:  
This system is a driving aid that cannot,  
in any circumstances, replace the  
driver’s own vigilance. The driver must  
remain in control of the vehicle under all  
circumstances.  
The system helps the driver only when  
there is a risk of the vehicle involuntarily  
wandering from the lane it is being driven  
in. It does not manage the safe driving  
distance, the speed of the vehicle or the  
brakes.  
The driver must hold the steering wheel  
with both hands in a way that allows  
control to be maintained in circumstances  
where the system is not able to intervene  
(if lane markings disappear, for example).  
It is necessary to observe the driving  
regulations and take a break every two  
hours.  
Active Lane Keeping  
Assistance  
Using a camera located at the top of the  
windscreen to identify lane markings on the  
ground, the system corrects the trajectory of  
the vehicle while alerting the driver if it detects  
a risk of involuntary crossing of a line.  
This system is particularly useful on motorways  
and main roads.  
-
poor visibility (inadequate lighting of  
the roadway, falling snow, heavy rain,  
dense fog, etc.),  
-
dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming  
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp  
road, leaving a tunnel, alternating  
shade and light, etc.),  
-
-
windscreen area located in front of the  
camera: dirty, misted up, frost-covered,  
snow-covered, damaged or covered by  
a sticker,  
lane markings absent, worn, hidden  
(snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks,  
etc.),  
-
-
close to the vehicle ahead (lane  
markings not detected),  
roads that are narrow, winding, etc.  
150  
Driving  
Operation  
Driving situations and  
associated alerts  
Once the system identifies a risk of the vehicle  
involuntarily crossing one of the lane markings  
detected on the ground or a lane limit (e.g.  
grass border), it makes the correction to the  
trajectory necessary to return the vehicle to its  
initial path.  
The table below describes the alerts and  
messages displayed depending on the driving  
situation.  
The display of these alerts is not sequential.  
The instrument panel display screen "Driving  
aids" tab must have been selected first.  
The driver will notice a turning movement of the  
steering wheel.  
While the direction indicators are on and for  
a few seconds after switching them off, the  
system considers that any change of trajectory  
is voluntary and no correction is triggered  
during this period.  
This warning lamp flashes during  
trajectory correction.  
However, with the Blind Spot Detection  
activated, if the driver starts changing lanes  
and another vehicle is detected in the vehicle's  
blind spot, the system will correct the trajectory  
of the vehicle even though the direction  
indicators are on.  
If the driver wishes to maintain the  
trajectory of the vehicle, they can prevent  
the correction by keeping a firm grip on  
the wheel (during an avoiding manoeuvre,  
for example).  
6
For more information on the Blind Spot  
Detection, refer to the corresponding section.  
The correction is interrupted if the  
direction indicators are operated.  
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.

It is important to check the sides of the  
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the  
mirrors.  
Recommendations on care  
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the  
sensors and camera are not covered with mud,  
ice or snow.  
The rear parking sensors also provide  
information on the vehicle's surroundings.  
The driver can take control at any time by  
gripping the steering wheel.  
Check the cleanliness of the camera lens  
regularly.  
If necessary, clean the camera with a soft, dry  
cloth.  
This manoeuvring assistance system  
cannot, in any circumstances, replace the  
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.  
The driver must remain in control of their  
vehicle ensuring that the space remains  
clear throughout the manoeuvre.  
In some circumstances, the sensors may  
not detect small obstacles located in their  
blind spots.

The Park Assist system cannot work with  
the engine off.  
With a manual gearbox, the driver manages  
the accelerator, brakes, gears and clutch.  
With an automatic gearbox (EAT6/EAT8), the  
driver manages the accelerator, brakes and  
gears.  
The 180° view facilitates reversing out of a  
parking bay, making it possible to see the  
approach of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.  
This view is not recommended for carrying out  
a complete manoeuvre.  
161  
Driving  
The Park Assist system takes control  
of the assistance for a maximum of  
4 manoeuvre cycles. The function is  
deactivated after these 4 cycles. If you  
think that your vehicle is not positioned  
correctly, you should then take control of  
the steering to carry out the manoeuvre.  
The parking sensors function is  
not available during parking space  
measurement. It intervenes later when  
manoeuvring to warn you that your vehicle  
is approaching an obstacle: the audible  
signal becomes continuous when the  
obstacle is less than thirty centimetres  
away.  
If you have deactivated the parking  
sensors, they are automatically  
reactivated during assisted parking  
manoeuvres.  
The Park Assist system provides assistance for  
the following manoeuvres:

During parking and exit from parking  
manoeuvres, the Reversing Camera  
function may come into operation. It  
facilitates monitoring of the surroundings  
of the vehicle, by displaying additional  
information in the instrument panel.

Driving  
The loss of pressure detected does not  
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.  
Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual  
check.  
It compares the information given by the  
wheel speed sensors with reference values,  
which must be reinitialised after every tyre  
pressure adjustment or wheel change.  
The system triggers an alert as soon as it  
detects a drop in the pressure of one or more  
tyres.  
The tyre pressure specifications for your  
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure  
label.  
For more information on the  
Identification markings, refer to the  
corresponding section.  
Tyre pressures should be checked 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 (when hot), add 0.3 bar to the  
pressures shown on the label.  
F In the event of a puncture, use the  
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare  
wheel (depending on equipment),  
or  
F if you have a compressor, such as the one  
in the temporary puncture repair kit, check  
the pressures of the four tyres when cold,  
or  
The tyre under-inflation detection system  
does not replace the need for vigilance on  
the part of the driver.  
This system still requires you to check  
the tyre inflation pressures (including  
the spare wheel) every month as well as  
before a long journey.  
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs  
handling, extends braking distances and  
causes early tyre wear, particularly in  
adverse conditions (heavy loads, high  
speeds, long journeys).  
F if it is not possible to carry out this check  
immediately, drive carefully at reduced  
speed.  
Snow chains  
The system does not have to be  
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow  
chains.  
The alert is kept active until the system is  
reinitialised.

the equipment installed, a message  
displayed on the screen.  
The system must be reinitialised after any  
adjustment to the pressure of one or more  
tyres, and after changing one or more wheels.  
Driving with under-inflated tyres  
increases fuel consumption.  
F Reduce speed immediately, avoid excessive  
steering movements and sudden braking.  
F Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do  
so.
