e-Remote Control is a free service available for new electric and plug-in hybrids. The service can be used in the My Peugeot app.

Vehicle status information

The home page displays important information about the battery: state of charge and estimated remaining range. To view new information, you need to update the app by:

• Drag the page from top to bottom
• Click the circular arrow (Refresh) in the top right corner

The correct information is displayed within a minute. When the app is updated, you need to have an internet connection. The connection must not be changed from Wi-Fi to 3G/4G/5G or vice versa. In this case, the communication is interrupted.

Remote charging

This feature allows you to remotely control and start charging your vehicle once it's plugged in. You can also change from starting charging immediately to delayed charging, or vice versa. Delayed charging can also be activated by pressing a special button in the charging door. When the charge reaches 100%, a notification is sent.

Remote-controlled heating and cooling

This function allows you to set a comfortable temperature in the vehicle. You don't need to configure preconditioning yourself, as the e-Remote Control always reaches a comfortable temperature of 21°C.

Using this function while charging does not affect the vehicle's range, it only means that the vehicle will reach a comfortable temperature. In the case of programmed preconditioning, the program starts between 30 and 45 minutes before the set time, so that the vehicle has reached a comfortable temperature and remains active 10 minutes later. Therefore, you should program the time when you will use the vehicle.

Depending on the equipment of your vehicle, you can also program charging from your navigation system on the screen, via the "CHARGING" page, in the "ELECTRICAL" menu and program the time of preconditioning under "TIME SETTING" on the "CLIMATE" page.

For preconditioning to start, there must be 45 minutes from programming to the selected time. When preconditioning is programmed, the setting is saved and it starts even if there is no good internet connection.

Doors and trunk lid must be locked. If you unlock the vehicle during preconditioning, it will exit after 1 minute.

Charging requests made during preconditioning will start when preconditioning ends. An informational message may appear in the app.

Special conditions for hybrid vehicles

Starting preconditioning means that ongoing charging is interrupted. Charging will resume at the end of preconditioning, provided that the charging station allows it. If the battery level is below 20%, and the vehicle is not charging, the preconditioning function is not available.

Special conditions for electric vehicles

Fast charge mode works unconditionally with preconditioning. However, in the case of regular charging, the outside temperature is conditional:

• Between 5 and 35°, preconditioning and charging can work at the same time.
• If you start preconditioning outside of this temperature range, charging will stop. It will resume after the end of preconditioning.

If the battery level is below 50%, the preconditioning function is not available.

Remote Control is a paid service available for new combustion engines, electric and hybrid vehicles, which allows you to remotely control in-car functions from your smartphone. The service can be used through the My Peugeot app.

For all remote functions, after 20 seconds, you can check in 2 ways if the request has been sent:

• through a banner (if the My Peugeot app is open)
• through a message (if the My Peugeot app is in the background or if your smartphone is locked)

Lock status

This feature allows you to control the locking of your vehicle. In order for the updated status to be displayed on the page, you need to update by:

• Drag the page from top to bottom
• Click the circular arrow (Refresh) in the top right corner

Note: As soon as a door is unlocked, the status in the My Peugeot app changes to unlocked.

Remotely control locking/unlocking

This feature allows you to remotely control: locking/unlocking the vehicle's doors. Animated buttons in the app indicate that the request is in progress. The vehicle is locked/unlocked no later than 8 seconds after the request.

Regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked, the "lock" and "unlock" buttons are displayed.

Remote-controlled lighting

This function allows you to remotely control warning or side lights, depending on the vehicle. Animated buttons in the app indicate that the request is in progress, within 8 seconds of your request:

• first, that the request is ongoing
• Then, for 10 seconds, that the lights are turned on.

Remotely control the horn

This feature allows you to control the horn remotely. Animated buttons in the app indicate that the request is in progress, within 8 seconds of your request:

• First, that the request is pending, a notice of compliance with applicable laws and regulations regarding the use of the horn.
• Then, for 10 seconds, the vehicle honks.

If the vehicle receives a second request to activate the horn before the previous one is completed, the vehicle will honk a second time with a limited noise level.

e-ROUTES is a smartphone navigation app for electric vehicles, mirrorable though Android Auto and CarPlay.

It shows available stations nearby and helps you to plan trips, suggesting the best charging stops along the journey and the optimal charge time for each stop. Your trips are constantly adapted to the circumstances, as the app takes into account real-time conditions (traffic information, charging station availability, weather, state of charge, etc.).

Once you have subscribed to a contract including e-ROUTES in Peugeot Services Store, you need to complete the association process in the My Peugeot app. If you already did this for another service/feature, you do not need to do it again.

Then, go to Apple Store or Google Play and download e-ROUTES. Select Peugeot, insert your My Peugeot credentials and tap on log in to start using e-ROUTES.

Yes, you can.

If both vehicles are from the same brand: after selecting the brand and logging in in the app, you can change your preferred vehicle by tapping on “Change vehicle".

If the vehicles are from different brands: select the brand you want to use at that moment and log in with the corresponding brand account. To change to a vehicle from another brand, log out and select that other brand, logging in with the corresponding account.

Find charging stations nearby
e-ROUTES automatically detects your type of plug and displays nearby charging stations (10 km radius) and their details (including availability), even while driving without any route set.

Modify your battery preferences

e-ROUTES automatically detects your battery level (it might take up to 1 minute to update with the latest data, depending on how good your connection is). You can manually modify the following parameters:

-Battery level at departure

-Minimum battery level at destination

-Minimum battery level at charging station

-Maximum battery level

Please note that changing these settings will not have a direct impact on your vehicle, as e-ROUTES does not control your vehicle’s charging. For example, if you set a maximum battery level of 80% and leave your vehicle charging overnight, the app will not stop the vehicle from reaching 100%.

Modify your navigation settings

You can choose to avoid tolls, ferries and highways. Also, you can activate speed camera alerts* and voice indications.

*Please note that speed camera alerts are not permitted in Germany.

Optimise your charging stops

If you are planning a long trip, you can modify the frequency/duration of your charging stops by tapping on “Optimise for”. You can choose between shorter stops, longer stops and best route (most efficient route to reduce total trip time).

Introduce a destination and plan your trip

When you enter a destination, e-ROUTES will show you the charging stations you should stop at to complete the trip in the most efficient manner. The app takes into account your battery, navigation and optimisation preferences and, for each stop, will tell you how long you should charge for.

You can also select an alternative route (when available) or modify your battery/navigation/optimisation settings.

Once you tap on the “Go” button, you will receive guidance including:

•       Turn-by-turn navigation

•       Speed limits

•       Current speed

•       Speed camera alerts (optional)

•       Real-time traffic

•       Voice indications (optional)

•       Written directions

Establish the Mirror Screen connection

To display e-ROUTES on your vehicle’s touchscreen, you need to connect your smartphone via Mirror Screen (Android Auto or CarPlay).

You can first plan your trip on your smartphone and then establish the mirroring, or you can first establish the mirroring and then plan the trip on your vehicle’s touchscreen.

For both options, once the Android Auto/CarPlay connection is established, you must select e-ROUTES on the touchscreen. e-ROUTES will open and you will be able to access it via the touchscreen.

If you are having problems with the app, please make sure that:

-You are subscribed to a contract that includes e-ROUTES

-Your smartphone is compatible with e-ROUTES (see point 3)

-You completed the association procedure in your My Peugeot app (see point 5)

-Your vehicle is in an area with good 3G/4G coverage

-Your vehicle’s Private Mode is deactivated

-Your e-ROUTES app is up to date

-You allow the app enough time to load new data (it might take up to 1 minute to refresh the smartphone data with, for example, latest battery level).

-You configured the mirroring properly

If you meet these requirements and are still experiencing problems, please contact Customer Care.
