SAFETY
The driver must ensure that passen-
gers use the seat belts correctly and
that they are all restrained securely
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles
as they will not fulfi l their role fully.
The seat belts are fi tted with an in-
ertia reel permitting automatic ad-
justment of the length of the strap
to your size. The seat belt is stored
automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned
in the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fi tted with an
automatic locking device which
comes into operation in the event
of a collision, emergency braking
or if the vehicle rolls over. You can
release the device by pulling rapidly
on the strap and releasing it so that
it re-winds slightly. Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to se-
cure more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your
lap.
In order to be effective, a seat belt:
- must be tightened as close to the
body as possible,
- must restrain one person of adult size only,
- must not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- must be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking
that it does not twist,
- must not be altered or modifi ed to avoid altering its performance.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, all repairs and checks
must be carried out by a PEUGEOT
dealer who guarantees that the work
is carried out correctly.
Have your seat belts checked regularly
by a PEUGEOT dealer and particularly
if the straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and reeled in correctly.
Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impacts
, the pre-
tensioning device may be triggered
before and independently of the air-
bags. Triggering of the pre-tensioners
is accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer.

AIRBAGS The airbags do not operate
when the ignition is switched
off.
This equipment will only operate
once. If a second impact occurs
(during the same or a subse-
quent accident), the airbag will
not operate. Front air bags
System which protects the head and
chest of the driver and front passenger
in the event of a front impact.
The driver's air bag is incorporated in
the centre of the steering wheel; the
front passenger's air bag is incorporated
in the fascia above the glove box.
Activation
The air bags are triggered simultane-
ously, unless the passenger's front air
bag is disarmed, in the event of a seri-
ous front impact applied to all or part
of the front impact zone
A , in the lon-
gitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the
front to the rear of the vehicle.

The front air bag infl ates between the front
occupant of the vehicle and the fascia to
cushion his forward movement.
Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.

B. Side impact zone.
Triggering of the airbag(s) is ac-
companied by a slight emission
of harmless smoke and a noise,
due to the activation of the pyro-
technic cartridge incorporated in
the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but
sensitive individuals may expe-
rience slight irritation.
The noise of the detonation may
result in a slight loss of hearing
for a short time.
System designed to maximise the safety
of the occupants (with the exception of
the rear centre passenger) in the event
of violent collisions. It supplements the
action of the force-limiting seat belts.
If a collision occurs, the electronic de-
tectors record and analyse the front
and side impacts sustained in the im-
pact detection zones:
- in the case of a serious impact, the
airbags are triggered instantly and
protect the occupants of the vehicle
(with the exception of the rear cen-
tre passenger); immediately after the
impact, the airbags defl ate rapidly so
that they do not hinder visibility or the
exit of the occupants,
- in the case of a minor or rear impact or in certain roll-over conditions, the
airbags will not be triggered; the
seat belt alone is suffi cient to pro-
vide optimum protection in these
situations.

SAFETY
If the air bag warning light and
the display come on continuous-
ly, do not install a "rear facing"
child seat on the front passenger
seat.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Operating fault
If this warning light comes on on the
instrument panel and this display ap-
pears on the instrument panel display,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
system checked. The air bags may no
longer be triggered in the event of a se-
rious impact.
To guarantee the safety of your
child, it is imperative that the
passenger air bag is disarmed
when you install a "rear facing"
child seat on the front passen-
ger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk
being seriously injured or killed
if the air bag were triggered.
This warning light comes on on the centre
console front panel when the ignition is on
and until the air bag is re-armed.
Reactivation
When you remove the child seat, turn
switch
A to the "ON" position to re-arm
the air bag and so guarantee the safety
of your front passenger in the event of
an impact.
The associated warning light switches off.
Deactivation
Only the front passenger's air bag can
be disarmed:

 with the ignition off , insert the key
in the passenger air bag disarming
switch A ,

 turn it to the "OFF" position,

 remove the key.

Side air bags
System which protects the driver and
passenger in the event of a serious side
impact in order to limit the risk of injury
to the chest.
Each side air bag is incorporated in
the front seat back frame, on the door
side.
Activation
The side air bag is triggered unilater-
ally in the event of a serious side impact
applied to all or part of the side impact
zone B , perpendicular to the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal
plane and directed from the outside to-
wards the inside of the vehicle.
The side air bag infl ates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
corresponding door trim pad. Curtain air bags
System which protects the driver and
passengers (with the exception of the
rear centre passenger and the passen-
gers of row 3) in the event of a serious
side impact in order to limit the risk of
injury to the head.
Each curtain air bag is incorporated in
the pillars and the upper section of the
passenger compartment. Activation
The curtain air bag is triggered at the
same time as the corresponding side air
bag in the event of a serious side impact
applied to all or part of the side impact
zone
B , perpendicular to the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal
plane and directed from the outside to-
wards the inside of the vehicle.
The curtain air bag infl ates between the
front or rear occupant of the vehicle and
the windows.
In the event of a minor impact or
bump on the side of the vehicle
or if the vehicle rolls over, the air
bag may not be triggered.

In the event of a rear or front colli-
sion, the air bag is not triggered.
Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.

B. Side impact zone.
Operating fault
If this warning light comes on on the in-
strument panel and this display appears
on the instrument panel display, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system
checked. The air bags may no longer be
triggered in the event of a serious impact.

"DCS" GEARBOX
The six-speed robotised gearbox of-
fers a choice between the comfort of
automatic regulation or the pleasure of
manual gear changing.
This gearbox enables you to access
three driving modes:
- a manual mode for changing of the
gears by the driver using the steer-
ing wheel controls or the gear lever,
- a "
Normal
" automatic mode for
economical control of the gears
(everyday use),
- a "
Sport
" automatic mode which
permits a more dynamic style of
driving, with improved acceleration
and optimised engine braking. Displays on the instrument

The cruise control cannot, in any
circumstances, take the place of
the need to comply with speed
limits or of the vigilance and re-
sponsibility of the driver.
System which permits automatic main-
taining of the vehicle speed at the value
programmed by the driver, without any
action on the accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is
switched on
manually: the vehicle speed must be
25 mph (40 km/h) minimum and sec-
ond gear must be engaged in the case
of a manual gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off man-
ually, by an action on the brake or clutch
pedal or if the ASC system is triggered.
The programmed speed can be ex-
ceeded temporarily by pressing the ac-
celerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed,
simply release the accelerator pedal.
