Fuel warning light
In certain driving conditions and de-
pending on the engine, the distance
which you will be able to travel with
the remaining fuel may be less than
30 miles (50 kilometres) (the capacity
of the tank is approximately 67 litres).
Emission control system
warning light
This should switch off a few seconds
after the engine is switched on.
When the engine is running, if the
w a r n i n g l i g h t fl a s h e s o r c o m e s o n c o n -
tinuously, this indicates an emission
control system malfunction.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible. Diesel engine pre-heat
warning light
Wait for the warning light to switch off
before starting. The duration of the
display is determined by the exterior
climatic conditions.
Passenger air bag disarmed
warning light *
If the warning light remains on, this in-
dicates that the passenger air bag has
been disarmed intentionally.
If it comes on continuously above
6 mph (10 km/h), it indicates an ABS
fault.
However, the vehicle retains conven-
tional servo-assisted braking.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) warning light
* According to country.
The warning light is repeat-
ed on the instrument panel
screen.
Coolant temperature indicator
When the needle is in zone A , the
temperature is correct.
When the needle is in zone B , the
temperature is too high.
If the coolant temperature warning
light comes on (linked with the STOP
warning light), stop immediately.
Wait for the engine to cool down be-
fore topping up the level, if necessary.
As the cooling circuit is pressurised, in
order to prevent any risk of scalding,
unscrew the cap by two turns to allow
the pressure to drop.
When the pressure has dropped,
remove the cap and top up the level,
if necessary.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.

HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
Automatic lighting of hazard
warning lights *
When braking in an emergency, de-
pending on the deceleration, the hazard
warning lights come on automatically.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESP)
This system is linked and complemen-
tary to the ABS system.
I n t h e e v e n t o f a s i g n i fi c a n t v a r i a t i o n
between the trajectory of the vehicle
and the path required by the driver,
the ESP monitors wheel by wheel and
acts automatically on the engine and
on the brake of one or more wheels, to
put the vehicle back on course, within
the limit of the laws of physics.
ESP operation The indicator light comes on. Disarming the ESP
In exceptional conditions (starting the
vehicle when it is stuck in the mud,
immobilised in snow, on unstable
ground...), it may be advisable to dis-
arm the ESP.
Press the "ESP OFF" switch, lo-
cated on the centre console.
The switch lights up and the warning
light comes on: the ESP no longer acts
on the operation of the engine.

Operating fault
When a malfunction of the system oc-
curs, the warning light comes on, ac-
companied by an audible signal and a
message on the multifunction display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked. Instrument panel indicator light.
The ESP offers exceptional
safety during normal driving,
but this should not encourage
the driver to take extra risks
(late braking) or drive at high
speed.
Correct operation of the system depends
on compliance with the manufacturer's
recommendations regarding the wheels
(tyres and rims), the braking compo-
nents, the electronic components and
the PEUGEOT assembly and operation
procedures.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)
The ABS increases the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle on
braking, in particular on poor or slippery
road surfaces.
This system comes into operation
automatically when there is a risk of
wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations of
the brake pedal.
This indicates that the ABS is
faulty.
It comes on on the instrument
panel screen also.
If it comes on permanently above
6 mph (10 km/h), it indicates an ABS
malfunction.
However, the vehicle retains conven-
tional servo-assisted braking.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
EMERGENCY BRAKING ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
In an emergency, this system enables
the optimum braking pressure to be
reached more quickly, thus reducing
the stopping distance.
It is triggered by the speed at which
the brake pedal is activated.
The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase
i n b r a k i n g e f fi c i e n c y .
When braking in an emergency, press
fi r m l y w i t h o u t r e l e a s i n g t h e p r e s s u r e .
In emergency braking, press
v e r y fi r m l y w i t h o u t r e l e a s i n g
the pressure.
Note: when changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that these are
approved.
