THE ALARM
This provides two types of surveillance:
- exterior protection: it sounds if
a door, the boot or the bonnet is
opened.
- interior protection: it sounds if
the volume inside the passenger
compartment changes (breaking
of a window or a movement inside
the vehicle). When the alarm is triggered, the siren
sounds and the direction indicator lights
fl a s h f o r a p p r o x i m a t e l y t h i r t y s e c o n d s .
After triggering, the alarm remains set,
ten times in succession.
On the eleventh time it will become
inactive again, until the next cycle of
disarming then setting of the alarm.
Warning: if button A indicator light

triggered while you were away from
your vehicle.
Incorrect operation
When the ignition is switched on, if
button A lights for ten seconds, there
is a fault in the siren connection.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
R e m o t e c o n t r o l f a i l u r e , a l a r m set
Unlock the doors with the key and
open the door. The alarm is trig-
gered.
Switch on the ignition. The alarm is
disarmed.
* According to country.
Setting the alarm
Switch off the ignition and get out
of the vehicle.
Set the alarm, by locking or dead-
locking using the remote control
(button A i n d i c a t o r l i g h t fl a s h e s
once per second).
If you wish to lock or deadlock your ve-
hicle without setting the alarm, lock it
(one turn of the key) or deadlock it (a
s e c o n d t u r n w i t h i n fi v e s e c o n d s m a x i -
mum) using the lock.
The alarm is activated automatically
two minutes after the last closure of a
door or the boot.
In order to avoid accidental triggering
of the alarm when a door or the boot
is opened, it is essential to press the
unlocking button on the remote control
again.
Before setting the alarm, en-
sure that all of the accesses
(doors, bonnet, boot) are
closed correctly.
Disarming
Unlock the vehicle with the remote
control key.

If, while you are away from the vehi-
cle, you wish to leave a window par-
tially open or a pet inside the vehicle,
you should choose exterior protection
only.
Switch off the ignition,
In the next ten seconds, press but-
ton A until the indicator light is on
continuously,

AUTOMATIC HEADLAMP ADJUSTMENT
W h e n s t a t i o n a r y a n d w h e n t h e v e h i -
cle is moving , the system automati-
cally corrects the height of the beam,
whatever the load of the vehicle. The
driver is then assured of having opti-
mum lighting and not causing a nui-
sance to other road users.
DIRECTIONAL HEADLAMPS
Activation/Deactivation
When the dipped or main beam head-
lamps are on, this function enables the
light beam to follow the direction of the
road.
The quality of your lighting when turning
is improved considerably.
I n c a s e s o f m a l f u n c t i o n ,
the warning light comes on
on the instrument panel dis-
play, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
on the multifunction display. The sys-
tem places your headlamps to the low
position.
Do not touch the xenon bulbs. Consult
a PEUGEOT dealer. F u n c t i o n a c t i v a t e d

status of activation/deactivation of this
function selected when the engine was
switched off is retained.
By default, this function is activated.
Note: when stationary or driv-
ing at very low speed, or in
reverse gear, this function is
inactive.

pending on the deceleration, the hazard
warning lights come on automatically.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESP)
The electronic stability programme
(ESP) incorporates the following sys-
tems:
- the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the braking system (EBFD),
- the emergency braking assistance system,
- the traction control (ASR),
- the dynamic stability control (DSC).
Traction control (ASR)
The ASR system optimises traction in
order to avoid wheel slip by acting on
the brakes of the driving wheels and
on the engine. It also improves the
directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
If there is a difference between the
path followed by the vehicle and that
required by the driver, the DSC moni-
tors each wheel and automatically acts
on the brake of one or more wheels
and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of
the laws of physics.
Operating modes
Definitions
Emergency braking assistance
system
In an emergency, this system enables
you to reach the optimum braking
pressure more quickly and therefore
reduce the stopping distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed
at which the brake pedal is pressed.
This is felt by a reduction in the resis-
tance of the pedal and an increase in
the effectiveness of the braking. When this warning light
comes on, accompanied by
a buzzer and a message, it
indicates that there is a mal-
function of the ABS, which
can cause a loss of control of the ve-
hicle when braking.
When this warning light
comes on, connected to
the STOP and ABS warn-
ing lights, accompanied by
a buzzer and a message, it
indicates that there is a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution,
which can cause a loss of control of
the vehicle when braking.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Anti-lock braking
system (ABS) and braking
system (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking and offers improved control,
in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The braking system provides integral
management of the braking pressure
wheel by wheel. Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and braking system (EBFD)

ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED SUSPENSION
The suspension adapts automatically
and instantly to different driving styles
and road characteristics, improving
the comfort of the occupants and the
vehicle's road holding capabilities. The
suspension favours smooth shock ab-
sorption, ensuring a comfortable ride,
but as soon as conditions demand a
change (sporty driving, tight bends,
avoidance action, etc.) it automatically
s e l e c t s fi r m e r s h o c k a b s o r p t i o n , g u a r -
anteeing optimum road holding.
