2004 PEUGEOT 607 warning light

02-02-2004
In the "OFF" position, the passenger
air bag will not be triggered in the event of an impact. As soon as the child seat is removed, turn the air bag slot to the"ON" position to re-activate the air
bag and thus ensure the safety ofyour passenger in the event of animpact. Disarming check This is confirmed by an indicator light, accompanied by an audible sig-nal and a message on the multifunc-
tion display.
With the ignition on (2ndnotch), illumination of thiswarning light accompaniedby an audible signal and themessage "Passenger air
bag deactivated" on the multifunc-
tion display, indicates that the pas-senger air bag is disarmed (switch inthe "OFF" position). SIDE AIR BAGS AND
CURTAIN AIR BAGS The side air bags are incorporated in the front and rear seat backs, on thedoor side. The curtain air bags are incorporated into the door pillars and the upperpart of the passenger compartment. They are deployed independently of each other depending on which sidethe collision occurs. Operating check This is confirmed by an indicator light, accompanied by an audible sig-nal and a message on the multi-func-
tion display.
If this indicator light comes on, accompanied by anaudible signal and the mes-sage 'Air bag(s) faulty' ,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer
to have the system checked.

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION Sensors check the tyre pressure during driving, and trigger a warningin the event of malfunction (speedgreater than 15mph [25 km/h]). Flat tyre When this warning light comes on, accompanied byan audible signal and themessage 'Tyre pressure
low' on the multi-function
display, have the tyre pressurechecked as soon as possible. Puncture
This warning light, accom- panied by an audible signaland the message 'Punc-
tured tyre(s) detected' on
the multi-function display, is
followed by illumination of the
'STOP' warning light.
Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-den movement of the steering wheeland the brakes.
Change the damaged (punctured orvery deflated) tyre, and have the tyrepresure checked as soon as possible.
Note: if the damaged tyre is temporari-
ly stored in the boot, it will again emitthis message to remind you of the
necessity of having it repaired. This willprevent another warning of the sametype being displayed.
Sensor(s) not detected
This warning light, accom-panied by an audible signaland the message ' X tyre
pressure sensor(s) miss-ing ' on the multi-function
display, indicates that under-inflationdetection is absent from one (or sev-eral) tyre(s).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace the faulty sensor(s). Note: this message is also displayed
when one of the tyres is away from the vehicle (being repaired) or whena wheel without a sensor is fitted.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION
All repairs and changing of tyres on a wheel fittedwith this system must becarried out by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
The tyre under-inflation detec-tion system is an aid to drivingwhich does not replace theneed for the driver to be vigilant
or to drive responsibly. This system does not remove the necessity for having the tyre pres-sure (including that of the spare
wheel) checked regularly, toensure optimum dynamic perfor-mance of the vehicle and to pre-vent premature wear of the tyres,particularly in the case of arduousdriving conditions (heavy load,high speed). The system may temporarily be disturbed by radio broadcasts ona frequency close to it.

CHANGING A BULB Front lights
In the engine compartment, remove the style cover secured by one or two butterfly screws, a plastic retainer clip andtwo screws. Note:
handle the bulbs with a dry cloth.
1 - Dipped beam headlamps: H7-55W or Xenon bulb.
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION Xenon bulbs must be replaced by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
2 - Main beam headlamps: H1-55W.
 Turn the protective cover of the faulty bulb a quarterof a turn and remove it.
 Disconnect the connector.
 Press the end of the securing clip to free it. Changethe bulb.
 When fitting the new bulb, ensure that the directionnotches are positioned correctly and the securing
clip is fixed properly. 
Reconnect the connector.
 Refit the protective cover.
The headlamps are fitted with polycarbonate glass with aprotective coating. Do not clean them with a dry or abra-
sive cloth, nor with a detergent or solvent product.
3 - Side lights: W 5 W.
 Pull the socket rearwards, remove the bulb and change it.
4 - Direction indicators: PY 21 W (amber).
 Turn the bulb holder a quarter turn and remove it.
 Change the bulb.
 Refit the style cover.
Front foglamps: H1 - 55 W.
Note: In certain climatic conditions (low temperature,
humidity), condensation on the inside surface of the
headlamp glass is normal ; it disappears a few minutes
after the lights are switched on.

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN,
BOAT ETC...
Only use original PEUGEOT tow bars which have been tested andapproved from the design stage ofyour vehicle. The tow bar must be fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Driving advice Distribution of loads:distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heaviest loads are as close as possible to theaxle and the nose weight is close tothe maximum authorised without,
however, exceeding it. Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.As the fan is electronically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependenton the engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the engine speed, and reduceyour speed. In all cases, pay attention to thecoolant temperature. Note:
in certain cases of particularly
arduous use (towing the maximum load up a steep slope in high tempe-ratures), the engine automatically
limits its power. In this case, cutting
off the air conditioning allows theengine power to be recovered, andtherefore the towing capacity to beincreased. If the coolant temperature warning light comes on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as soon as pos-sible.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures of
the towing vehicle (label on the cen- tral door pillar on the driver's side)and of the trailer towed, observingthe recommended pressure. Brakes: towing increases the bra-
king distance. Drive at a moderate speed, change down early and brake
gradually. Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a moderate speed. Lighting Manual adjustmentAdjust your headlamps so as not to dazzle other road users. Check the
electrical signalling of the trailer. Automatic headlamp adjustment (Automatic beam correction) For vehicles with Xenon bulbs, this system automatically corrects theheight of the beam, whatever the
load of the vehicle. The driver isthen assured of having optimum ligh-ting and not causing a nuisance toother road users. In cases of malfunction, the driver is alerted by means of the warning lighton the instrument panel and the sys-tem adjusts your headlamps to thelow position.
