How to use your motorhome cab: Peugeot (2026 version)

If you’ve recently purchased a Bailey motorhome based on a 2026 Peugeot chassis, this guide covers some key features to get you started. A complete list can be found in the supplied Peugeot handbook. Here's what you need to know: inside, outside, or under the bonnet to make the best use of your cab.

 

Seats

There are Captain’s chairs for the driver and passenger with armrests either side and adjusters at the bottom of the armrests

Both chairs swivel round into the lounge to create a large lounging area, but when ready to drive again, they must be facing forward and clicked into place.

The driver’s seat can slide forward or back, and the backrest can be tilted backwards or forwards. The seat can also be adjusted up or down.


 

Mirrors

To adjust the mirrors, put your foot on the brake for safety and turn the ignition on. There’s no need to turn the engine on.

There is a control knob at the front of the console on the driver’s door. Use this to select the left or right mirror and then adjust your mirrors so you can see a third or a quarter of the motorhome in the outside portion of the mirror to give you good visibility.

There are also blind spot mirrors at the bottom of the mirror. Set this so that you can see about a third of the motorhome but make sure it’s elevated enough to see if any cars are caught in your blind spot.


 

Infotainment System

This is a 10” touchscreen with a colour display, FM and DAB radio, and connectivity for Apple or Android devices. It also includes a built-in sat-nav and large reversing camera.

How to connect your phone for the first time

  • Press the phone icon at the bottom of the unit and it will ask you if you want to connect a phone
  • Press Yes and then search for Bluetooth Devices.
  • As long as your Bluetooth is on and your phone is detectable, your phone should be detected and its name displayed on the screen
  • Press your phone’s name on the screen and allow the connection on your phone to complete the connection

 

Driver Aids

Additional drivers aids are available in the cab which include heated door mirrors, automatic headlights, electric windows, climate air conditioning and cruise control.


 

Helpful notes before travelling

  • Make sure the captain’s chairs are facing forward and are locked
  • Make sure any passengers are ready to go with their seatbelts on
  • Check anything you are carrying is secure
  • Make sure the rooflights and skylights are closed, all windows are fastened and exterior locker doors are shut and locked
  • Make sure any external steps are fully retracted
