General
recommendations

the doors must only be operated when
the vehicle is stationary.
For your safety and for that of your
passengers, as well as for correct
operation of the doors, you are strongly
advised not to drive with a door open.
Always check that it is safe to operate
the door and in particular, be sure not to
leave children or animals near the door
controls without supervision.
the audible warning, illumination of
the "door open" warning lamp and the
message in the multifunction screen
are there to remind you. Contact
a PEugEot dealer or a qualified
workshop to deactivate these warnings.
Lock your vehicle when using an
automatic car wash.

Before any opening or closing and
during any movement of the doors,
ensure that no person, animal or object
is protruding through the window
frame or might prevent the intended
manoeuvre, either inside or outside the
vehicle.
If this advice is not followed, injuries or
damage may occur if a person or an
object is trapped or caught.
Electric closing and opening of the
doors is not possible above 2 mph
(3 km/h):
-

If you set off with the door(s) open,
you must slow down to below
20 mph (30 km/h) in order to close
the door(s).

Any attempt to open a door
electrically using the interior handle
while driving, results in only being
possible to open the door manually.

this situation is accompanied by
the audible warning, illumination of
the "door open" warning lamp and
the message in the multifunction
screen. to release the door and
be able to operate it again, it is
necessary to stop the vehicle.

Manual or electric sliding side door(s)

the electric controls are inhibited in the
event of an impact. Manual opening and
closing remain possible.

While starting the engine, the
movement of a door is interrupted and
restored once the engine is running.

Depending on the engine, in Stop
mode of Stop & Start, if the door
is closed and you initiate opening
of the door, the door opens
partially and stops. When the
engine changes automatically to
Start mode, the door continues its
movement.

When open, a door never projects
beyond the rear bumper.

The doors and the overall
dimensions of the vehicle

When open, a door projects beyond the body.
Be sure to take this into account when you park
alongside a wall, a post or a high kerb...

Safety / Obstacle detection with
electric door(s)

Fuel filler flap

the obstacle detection system is triggered
when the moving door encounters an obstacle
with a certain level of physical resistance.
-

If an obstacle is detected while the door is
closing, the door stops then opens fully.

If an obstacle is detected while the door is
opening, the door stops and then closes.

If an obstacle is detected twice in
succession during a movement of the door,
it will no longer close electrically. Close the
door manually to reinitialise it.

If fitted to your vehicle, never open the
left-hand sliding side door when the
fuel filler flap is open. otherwise you
risk damaging the fuel filler flap and the
sliding door and causing injury to the
person filling the vehicle.

If the fuel filler flap is open and your
vehicle has an electric left-hand sliding
side door, the door cannot be opened
using the opening control button. If
required the door can be opened half
way manually. the fuel filler flap must
be closed to allow the door to open
correctly.

In the case of a steep slope, the door
may be driven by its own weight and
as a consequence may open or close
jerkily.
there would not be time for action at
the electric controls to take effect.
There would not be time for the
obstacle detection system to react.
take care not to leave the vehicle on
a steep slope with the door(s) open
without supervision. If this advice is not
followed, injuries or damage may occur
if a person or an object is trapped or
caught.

On a steep slope

It is possible to open and close the doors
electrically on slopes of up to 20%.
However, if your vehicle is on a slope, with the
front of the vehicle facing up, open the door
with care. the door may open more quickly due
to the incline.
on a steep slope, guide the side door manually
to help it to close.

However, if your vehicle is on a slope, with the
front of the vehicle facing down, the door may
not stay open and may close again jerkily with
the risk of injury.

Reinitialising electric doors

Following disconnection of the battery with the
doors open, it may be necessary to close the
doors manually to reinitialise them.
If the doors no longer work electrically,
reinitialise the door(s) as follows:
F  Fully close the door(s) manually.
F  Fully open the door(s) manually.
F  Close the door(s) manually.
F  Fully open the door(s) manually.
F  Close the door(s) manually.
on completion of this procedure, electric
operation of the doors is restored.
However, if a problem persists following this
procedure, contact a PEugEot dealer or a
