My connected vehicle is equipped with a privacy protection mechanism.

 

  • Private mode activated: data sharing and vehicle position cannot be done.
  • Intermediate private mode: data sharing only (except vehicle position) can be done.
  • Private mode disabled: data sharing and vehicle position can be done
     

Connected services (Telemaintenance, reporting vehicle information in the MyPEUGEOT application, connected navigation services, Mirror Screen functions (CarPlay / Android Auto), SOS and Assistance services, remote e-commands, etc.) are only returned when the private mode is deactivated.

So, if you have these services (subject to availability and/or subscription in your country), you can check and, if necessary, change the private mode of your vehicle by following the procedure (which you can also download if you click on the attached file at the end of this article).

A - Action on the SOS and ASSISTANCE buttons

(Your vehicle does not have these buttons, go to Action B )

Step 1 :
Start the vehicle and let the engine run

2nd step :
Press the SOS and ASSISTANCE buttons simultaneously and release them immediately.

 

 

At the end of the double-push, a voice message invites you to go to the next step: "To confirm switching to geolocated mode, please press the ASSISTANCE button."

In case there is no voice message: Go to Step 4.
