Does anyone know what the button on the end of the left indicator stalk does?

I've tried pressing it loads of times and watching everything to see what it does and it does nothing??

Hi Steve like you I couldn't find anything that the button did so I got in touch with the dealer (after many hrs searching) and surprise surprise it does absolutely nothing dealer says he doesn't know why Peugeot put it there.

Ha,that'sthe french for you! maybe its for some optional upgrade theyhaven'tput in it like voicedialingor something. I wasdisappointedHID xenon headlightsweren't available, that and the lack of post code ability's on the sat nav

It's used on the basic model that doesn't have a screen ... Where we have our speed in a digital display between the clocks the base model has its mini computer there

 

[Steve_208]

aah. next question is where do you put cd's? if you can?

 

[Mikeyuk]

No CD player, all MP3 via a USB stick or via bluetooth off your phone

 

[Steve_208]

ok so how do you update the sat nav?

You can do part postcode search - just not full I think.

i've not been able to work out how, the guy at the dealership couldn't work out how as well

 

[Steve_208]

if anyone could get a pic up or a guide, then it would be most appreciated (for everyone!)

Just a guess but could you do it via the USB port - download map update to memory stick, then plug into port. Does it not say anything in the manual about updating sat nav ?

 

[sillysod]

you can do a partial post code search by typing the postcode into the city box, after youve typed the first half of post code it will put up a list of streets in that area.

One thing that really bugs me is the country field on satnav, scrolling down the list every time to pick england is annoying, it should default to the current country and city using your loc imo.

As for updates its done with a USB stick, or atleast thats how you get the traffic camera data onto it.

You can only get a CD player on left hand drive cars (along with JBL). The player is located in the glovebox on cars that do have it.

Hi absolutely nothing It's for the cheaper models that dont have a touch screen

 

[rubberball]

Have just found the following on the Peugeot Website solooks like my earlier post was wrong

PEUGEOT CONNECT 3D MEDIA NAVIGATION (NG4) Address book and voice command integration

The above guide was written for software version ng4_D_R26b_R26.04
Voice commands
The voice command function is activated by pressing the ""˜Push to talk' (PTT) button
which is located on the end of the indicator stalk (the left hand stalk above the
cruise control stalk if present). Once pressed, a double bleep tone will sound which
means that the microphones are now on and ready for speech recognition.
Below is a list of voice commands that are useful to know (press PTT and wait for


the acknowledgement beep before speaking):

 

[Steve_208]

excellent. that solves the mystery, well done shaggy. ha. Thankyou

I wasdisappointed that it didn't come with voice recognition and now its annoying it wasnt offered to me, saying that no extras were offered to me even though I expressed a strong interest in a number of things. Now I want to find out if the PTT is available after the car is on the road and how much..

 

[404notfound]

Surely something like voice recognition would be a simple software update, which Peugeot could easily offer now?

As long as the microphones are installed, i'd assume no other hardware be required.

 

[Steve_208]

Good point. Just depends how much they would want for the pleasure of installing software.

 

[Gio]

Are you sure voice recognition is available?
I was flicking through the spec. and price list last night and I didn't spot it listed anywhere.

The 208 does not have the NG4 system
