Air bags
Front air bags
The front air bags are incorporated in
the centre of the steering wheel for the
driver and in the fascia for the front
p a s s e n g e r ( s ) .
Activation
They are deployed simultaneously,
unless the passenger's front air bag
has been 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 vehicle
on a horizontal plane directed from the
front towards the rear of the vehicle.
T h e f r o n t a i r b a g i n fl a t e s b e t w e e n
the front occupant of the vehicle and
the fascia to cushion his forward
movement. Disarming
The passenger's front air bag alone
c a n b e d i s a r m e d :
-
With the ignition switched off ,
insert the key into the passenger air
bag disarming switch
- turn it to the "OFF" position,
- then remove the key keeping the slot in this position.
The air bag warning light on the
instrument panel is lit throughout
the period of disarming.
If the two air bag warning lights
are lit continuously, do not install
a rear-facing child seat. Consult a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Front air bag fault
To ensure the safety of your
child, it is essential to disarm the
passenger air bag when you install
a rear-facing child seat on the front
passenger seat. Otherwise, the child
would risk being killed or seriously
i n j u r e d i f t h e a i r b a g w e r e t o i n fl a t e . Reactivation
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 of your passenger in the event
of an impact.
If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
display, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer to have the system
checked.

Air bags
Side air bags
This is a system which protects the
driver and front 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
It is triggered unilaterally 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 towards the
inside of the vehicle.
T h e s i d e a i r b a g i n fl a t e s b e t w e e n t h e
front occupant of the vehicle and the
corresponding door trim pad. Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
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. Operating fault
If this warning light comes
on on the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
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.
Curtain air bags
This is a system which protects the
driver and passengers in the event of a
serious side impact in order to limit the
risk of head injuries.
Each curtain air bag is incorporated
in the pillars and the upper part of the
passenger compartment.
Activation
It 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
towards the inside of the vehicle.
T h e c u r t a i n a i r b a g i n fl a t e s b e t w e e n

ACCESSORIES

Good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep slope in high temperatures), the
engine automatically limits its power. In
this case, the automatic cutting off of
the air conditioning allows the engine
power to be recovered.
Tyres
Check the tyre pressures of the
t o w i n g v e h i c l e ( s e e t h e " I d e n t i fi c a t i o n
features" section of chapter 8) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressure.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 6.
If the coolant temperature
warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change
down early and brake gradually. Towbar
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their
harnesses, which have been tested
and approved from the design stage of
your vehicle, and that you entrust the
