from direct exposure to the sun's rays.  
A message is displayed on the instrument  
panel to confirm the unlocking of the  
wheels for 15 minutes.  
When the vehicle is free-wheeling, the  
audio system cannot be updated (message  
displayed on the instrument panel).  
Free-wheeling  
In certain situations, it is necessary to put the  
vehicle into free-wheeling mode (e.g. towing, on  
a rolling road, automatic car wash (Wash mode),  
rail or sea transport).

It is not easy for drivers to detect  
when shock absorbers are worn.  
Nevertheless, the shock absorbers  
have a major impact on road holding  
and braking performance.  
When the vehicle is fitted with an  
engine and select mode P.  
automatic gearbox or a drive selector, it  
is strongly recommended to stay inside the

Advice on care and  
maintenance  
Timing and accessory kits  
Depress and hold the brake pedal.  
The timing and accessory kits are  
used from the time the engine is  
started until it is switched off. It is  
normal for them to wear over time.  
Select and hold the mode N on the push  
selector.  
General recommendations  
Press the START/STOP button around 1 s  
to switch off the engine (confirmed by the  
flashing of the P and N indicator lights).  
Observe the following recommendations to avoid  
damaging the vehicle.  
A faulty timing or accessory kit can damage  
the engine, rendering it unusable. Observe the  
recommended replacement frequency, stated in  
distance travelled or time elapsed, whichever is  
reached first.  
Release the brake pedal to switch on the  
ignition and deactivate the electric parking  
brake.  
Exterior  
Never use a high-pressure jet wash in the  
engine compartment - risk of damaging  
the electrical components!  
Do not wash the vehicle in bright sunshine or  
extremely cold conditions.

Practical information  
Interior  
Decals  
When washing the vehicle in an automatic  
roller-brush car wash, be sure to lock  
the doors and, depending on version, move  
the electronic key away and deactivate the  
"hands-free" function (Hands-Free Tailgate  
Access).  
(Depending on version)  
When washing the vehicle, never use a  
water hose or high-pressure jet to clean  
the interior.  
Do not use a high-pressure washer to  
clean the vehicle - risk of damaging or  
detaching the decals!  
Liquids carried in cups or other open  
containers can spill, presenting a risk of  
damage to the instruments and controls and  
the controls located on the centre console.  
Be vigilant! To clean instrument panels, touch  
screens or other displays, wipe gently with  
a soft, dry cloth. Do not use products (e.g.  
alcohol, disinfectant) or soapy water directly  
on these surfaces - risk of damage!  
When using a pressure washer, keep the jet  
nozzle at a minimum distance of 30 cm from  
the vehicle (particularly when cleaning areas  
containing chipped paint, sensors or seals).  
Promptly clean up any stains containing  
chemicals liable to damage the vehicle's  
paintwork (including tree resin, bird  
droppings, insect secretions, pollen and tar).  
Depending on the environment, clean the  
vehicle frequently to remove salty deposits  
(in coastal areas), soot (in industrial areas)  
and mud/salts (in wet or cold areas). These  
substances can be highly corrosive.  
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop for advice on removing stubborn  
stains requiring special products (such as tar  
or insect removers).  
Use a high-flow hose (temperature  
between 25°C and 40°C).  
Place the jet of water perpendicular to the  
surface to be cleaned.  
Rinse the vehicle with demineralised water.  
Textile  
Bodywork  
The dashboard, door panels and seats may  
contain parts made of textile material.  
High-gloss paint  
Maintenance  
Do not use abrasive products, solvents,  
petrol or oil to clean the bodywork.  
Never use an abrasive sponge to clean  
stubborn stains - risk of scratching the  
paintwork!  
Do not use aggressive cleaning products  
(e.g. alcohol, solvent or ammonia).  
Do not use steam-cleaning systems - risk of  
affecting the adhesion of the fabrics!  
Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed  
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop.  
Do not apply polish in strong sunshine, or to  
plastic or rubber parts.  
Remove dust from the textile parts  
regularly with a dry cloth, soft brush or  
vacuum cleaner.  
Rub down the textile parts once per year with  
a clean, damp cloth. After leaving overnight to  
dry, brush with a soft-bristled brush.  
Use a soft cloth and soapy water or a pH  
neutral product.  
Gently wipe the bodywork with a clean  
microfibre cloth.  
Apply polish with the vehicle clean and dry.  
Comply with the instructions for use stated on  
the product.

you may cause the substance to penetrate  
the surface.  
Alcantara® is an elegant and practical material  
which is very resistant and easy to maintain.  
Do not use printed cloths or printed  
absorbent paper.  
Do not use steam-cleaning systems.  
Act quickly by reducing the stain from its  
edges inwards.  
Remove as much substance or solids as  
possible using a spoon or spatula, and  
remove as much liquid as possible using  
absorbent paper.  
Remove dust from the Alcantara® parts  
regularly with a dry cloth, soft brush or  
vacuum cleaner.  
Clean the Alcantara®, without rubbing too  
vigorously, with a white cotton cloth which is  
slightly damp.  
Before cleaning greasy stains or liquids,  
quickly mop up any surplus.  
Before cleaning, wipe off any residues liable  
to scuff the leather, using a cloth that has  
been dampened with demineralised water  
and thoroughly wrung out.  
Product/Procedure to use depending  
on the type of stain:  
Clean the leather, without rubbing too  
vigorously, using a soft cloth moistened with  
soapy water or a pH-neutral product.
