AIR BAGS
The air bags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
in the event of violent collisions. They
supplement the action of the force-
limiting seat belts.
In this case, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side
impacts suffered in the impact detec-
tion zones:
- in the event of a serious impact, the air bags are deployed instanta-
neously and protect the occupants
of the vehicle; immediately after the
i m p a c t , t h e a i r b a g s d e fl a t e r a p i d l y
so that they do not hinder the vis-
ibility of the occupants or their pos-
sible exit from the vehicle,
- in the event of a minor impact or rear impact and in certain roll-over
conditions, the air bags will not be
deployed; the seat belt alone is
s u f fi c i e n t t o p r o v i d e m a x i m u m p r o -
tection in these situations.
Front air bags
The front air bags protect the driver
and front passenger in the event of a
serious front impact in order to limit the
risks of injury to the head and chest.
They are folded in the centre of the
steering wheel for the driver and in the
fascia for the front passenger.
The air bags do not operate
when the ignition is off.
This equipment only operates
once. If a second impact oc-
curs (during the same or a subsequent
accident), the air bag will not operate. Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
The deployment of one or
more air bags is accompanied
by a slight discharge of harm-
less smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensi-
tive individuals may experience some
irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time. Activation
They are deployed simultaneously, ex-
cept in cases where the passenger's
front air bag is disarmed, in the event
of a serious front impact applied to all
or part of the front impact zone
A , in
the longitudinal centreline of the vehi-
cle on a horizontal plane directed from
the front to the rear of the vehicle.

fascia to cushion his forward movement.

Steering column air bag *
- Do not sit with your knees any nearer to the steering wheel than
necessary.
Front air bags
- Do not drive holding the steering
wheel by its spokes or resting your
hands on the centre part of the
wheel.
- Passengers must not place their feet on the fascia.
- Smoke as little as possible; de- ployment of the air bags can cause
burns or the risk of injury from a
cigarette or pipe.
- Never remove or pierce the steer- ing wheel or hit it violently.
* According to country.
Front side air bags
- Only put approved covers on the
seats. These will not hamper the
deployment of the side air bags.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
- D o n o t fi x o r g l u e a n y t h i n g t o t h e seat backs. This could cause injury
to the chest or arms when the side
a i r b a g i n fl a t e s .
- Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than
necessary. Curtain air bags
- D o n o t fi x o r g l u e a n y t h i n g t o t h e
pillars or the roof. This could cause
injury to the head when the curtain
a i r b a g i n fl a t e s .
- Do not remove the grab handles in- stalled on the roof, they play a part
in securing the curtain air bags.
For the air bags to be fully ef-
fective, observe the following
safety rules:
- Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
- Sit in a normal upright position.
- Do not leave anything between the occupants and the air bags
(a child, pet, object...). This could
hamper the operation of the air
bags or injure the occupants.
- After an accident or if the ve- hicle has been stolen or broken
into, have the air bag systems
checked.
- All work on the air bag system is strictly forbidden unless it is car-
r i e d o u t b y q u a l i fi e d p e r s o n n e l o f
the PEUGEOT network.
- Even if all of the precautions men- tioned are observed, a risk of in-
jury or of slight burns to the head,
chest or arms, when an air bag is
deployed, cannot be ruled out. The

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
Sensors check the tyre pressure dur-
ing driving and trigger a warning in the
event of malfunction.
Pressure Check
With the ignition on and the ve-
hicle having been stationary
for approximately 15 minutes,
and after the engine oil level,
this indicator light comes on
on the instrument panel screen to indi-
cate that the system is measuring the
tyre pressures.
Pressure OK
This indicator light comes
on on the instrument panel
screen if all of the tyre pres-
sure values measured are
correct.
If this indicator light does not appear,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked. Puncture
This warning light, accom-
panied by the audible sig-
nal and the message on the
multi-function display locat-
ing the wheel concerned, is
followed by illumination of the STOP
warning light.
Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-
den movement of the steering wheel
and the brakes.
Change the damaged wheel (punc-
t u r e d o r v e r y d e fl a t e d t y r e ) , a n d h a v e
the tyre pressure checked as soon as
possible.
Note: this message is also
displayed when one of the
wheels is away from the ve-
hicle (being repaired) or when
one or more wheels without a
s e n s o r a r e fi t t e d . All repairs and changing of
t y r e s o n a w h e e l fi t t e d w i t h t h i s
system must be carried out by
a PEUGEOT dealer.
If, when changing a tyre, you install a
wheel which is not detected by your
vehicle, you must have the system
reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer.
T h e t y r e u n d e r - i n fl a t i o n d e t e c t i o n s y s -
tem is an aid to driving which does not
replace the need for the driver to be
vigilant or to drive responsibly.
This system does not eliminate the
need to have the tyre pressure checked
regularly (see manufacturer's label) to
ensure that the optimum dynamic per-
formance of the vehicle is maintained
and prevent premature wear of the
tyres, particularly in arduous driving
conditions (heavy load, high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Remember to
check the pressure of the spare wheel.
T h e t y r e u n d e r - i n fl a t i o n d e t e c t i o n s y s -
tem may experience temporary inter-
ference due to radioelectric emissions
on a frequency close to that used by
the system.
Flat tyre This warning light is accom-
panied by the audible signal
and the message on the mul-
ti-function display locating
the wheel concerned.
If this warning light comes on, have
the tyre pressure checked as soon as
possible. Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
This warning light is accom-
panied by the audible sig-
nal and the message on the
multi-function display which
i n d i c a t e s t h a t u n d e r - i n fl a t i o n
detection is absent from one (or sev-
eral) wheel(s) or that there is a fault in
the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace
the faulty sensor(s).

TOWING YOUR VEHICLE
From the rear:
Unclip the cover, pulling the upper
rib towards you,
Screw in the towing eye as far as it
will go.
Special featuresof the automatic gearbox
Lifting (2 wheels only on the ground)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle with
a professional lifting device.
When towing with the engine
switched off, there is no bra-
king or steering assistance.
From the front:
Unclip the left part of the cover,
Screw in the towing eye as far as it
will go. Towing a vehicle with an auto-
matic gearbox in reverse gear
is
prohibited (absence of
lubrication).
When being towed with all four wheels
on the ground, it is imperative that the
following rules are obeyed:
- selector lever in position N ,
- the vehicle must be towed at a speed of less than 30 mph (50 km/h) over
a maximum distance of 30 miles
(50 km),
- do not add oil to the gearbox.
Without lifting (4 wheels on the ground)
You must always use a towbar.
The removable towing eye is inside
the spare wheel.
