Range The display shows the distance that can still be covered with the fuelremaining in the tank. Note: this figure may rise if there is
a change in driving style or road sur- face, causing a significant drop incurrent fuel consumption. If there are less than 3 litres of fuel in the tank, only three segments willbe displayed.
Current fuel consumption This gives the fuel consumption recorded during the last two sec-
onds. This function is only displayedwhen the vehicle is travelling atmore than 12 m.p.h. (20 km/h). Average consumption This is the ratio between the amount of fuel consumed and the distancetravelled since the computer waslast reset to zero.
Average speed This is obtained by dividing the dis- tance travelled by the period of timethe vehicle has been in use (with theignition on), since the computer waslast reset to zero. Distance travelled This shows the distance travelled since the computer was last reset tozero. After the trip computer has been reset to zero, the range databecomes meaningful only after thevehicle has been in use for a certainperiod. If horizontal segments are displayed instead of figures when driving, con-
tact a PEUGEOT dealer.

to select the corresponding mirror. Move knob 1in all four directions to
adjust. Electric folding mirrors With the ignition on, turn knob 1to
position A.
The exterior mirror on the driver's side is convex (outer edge defined by a dotted line) in order to eliminate the 'blind spot'. As a result, objects observed in the driver's and passenger's mirrors
are in reality closer than they appear.
This must be taken into account to correctly judge the distance of vehiclesapproaching from behind.

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP) These systems are linked and com-
plement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to prevent the wheels skidding, byacting on the brakes of the drivewheels and on the engine. It alsoallows the directional stability of thevehicle to be improved on accelera-tion. If there is a variation betweenthe trajectory followed by the vehicle
and that required by the driver, the
ESP system automatically acts onthe engine and the brake of one ormore wheels, in order to put thevehicle back on course.Disarming the ASR/ESPsystems In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which is bogged down, stuck
in snow, on soft ground), it may be
advisable to disarm the ASR and
ESP systems, so that the wheels canmove freely and regain grip. 
Press the "ESP OFF" switch,
located under the steering wheel to the left.
The switch lights up and thewarning light comes on: the
ASR and ESP systems no
longer have any effect onthe engine operation.
These are triggered again:  automatically if the ignition is
switched off,
 automatically above 50 km/h,
 manually by pressing the switchagain.
Operation of the ASR and ESPsystems
When one of these two sys-tems is operating, this lightflashes.Operating checkWhen a malfunction of the systems occurs, the switchlight flashes and the warninglight comes on, accompaniedby an audible signal and the
message "ESP/ASR system not ope-
rational" on the multifunction display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to havethe system checked.
The ESP system offers exceptional safety in nor-mal driving, but thisshould not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive athigh speed. The correct functioning of this sys- tem depends on observation of themanufacturer's recommendationsregarding wheels (tyres and rims),the braking components and theelectronic components, as well asthe PEUGEOT assembly and ope-ration procedures. After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

FRONT AIR BAGS These are folded in the centre of the steering wheel for the driver and in
the fascia for the front passenger.
They are deployed simultaneously,except in cases where the air bag isdisarmed.Front air bag malfunction If this warning light comes on, accompanied by a buz-zer and the message "Air
bag fault" on the multifunction dis-
play, contact a PEUGEOT dealer tohave the system checked.
AIR BAGS The air bags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occu-pants in the event of serious colli-sions; they work in conjunction withthe force limiting seat belts. In the event of a serious collision, the electronic detectors record andanalyse any abrupt deceleration ofthe vehicle: if the triggering thre-shold is reached, the air bags inflateinstantly and protect the occupantsof the vehicle. Immediately after the impact, the air
bags deflate rapidly, so that they donot hinder the visibility of the occu-pants nor their possible exit from thevehicle. The air bags will not be deployed in collisions which are not serious, for
which the seat belt is sufficient to
provide maximum protection. Theseriousness of the collision dependson the nature of the obstacle and thespeed of the vehicle at the momentof impact. Air bags only operate when the ignition is switched on. Note:
the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant. Disarming the passenger air bag*
To ensure the safety of your child, it is essential to disarm the pas-senger air bag when you install arear-facing child seat on the frontpassenger seat. 
With the ignition switched off, insert the key into the passengerair bag disarming switch 1, turn it
to the "OFF" position, then remo-
ve the key keeping the slot in thisposition.
The air bag warning light on theinstrument panel is lit throu-ghout the disarming process.
* According to destination.

In the "OFF" position, the passen-
ger air bag will not be triggered in the event of an impact. As soon as the child seat is remo- ved, turn the air bag slot to the "ON"
position to re-activate the air bagand thus ensure the safety of yourpassenger in the event of an impact. Operating check This is confirmed by an indicator light, accompanied by an audiblesignal and a message on the multi-
function display. With the ignition on (2nd notch), illu- mination of this warning light accom-panied by an audible signal and themessage "Passenger air bag
disarmed" on the multifunction dis-
play, indicates that the passenger airbag is disarmed (switch in the"OFF" position). SIDE AIR BAGS These are incorporated into the frame of the front seat back, on thedoor side. They are deployed independently of each other depending on which sidethe collision occurs, in collisionswhich could cause injury to thechest, the abdomen or the head.
Operating check
This is confirmed by a light on theinstrument panel. It comes on for 6 seconds, each time the ignition is switched on. If the indicator light:
Ð does not light up when the ignition is switched on, or
Ð does not go out after 6 seconds, or
Ð flashes for 5 minutes then stays on,
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
