TECHNOLOGY ON BOARD


Pneumatic suspension
PNEUMATIC SUSPENSION

If your vehicle is fitted with pneumatic
suspension, you can adjust the height of
the rear of the vehicle to make loading and
unloading easier.
The control panel is located on the
dashboard.
There is a nominal level as well as 6 height
adjustment levels, raising (from +1 to +3) or
lowering (from -1 to -3). Each level reached
is indicated on the instrument panel screen.

Manual adjustment of the loadingheight


Raise: upwards adjustment
of the load floor
Make a quick press on the control
to select the next level up. Each
press (LED on) raises the floor by
one level: +1 to +3.
A long press selects the highest level (+3).
Lower: downwards adjustment of the
load floor
Make a quick press on the control
to select the next level down.
Each press (LED on) lowers the
floor by one level: -1 to -3.
A long press selects the lowest level (-3).

Driving safely

When a malfunction of the ESP
system occurs, this warning lamp
comes on, accompanied by an
audible signal and confirmed by
a message on the screen.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.


Good practice

The ASR/ESP systems offer increased
safety during normal driving, but should not
incite the driver to take risks or to drive at
high speed.
The operation of these systems is ensured
if the recommendations of the manufacturer
regarding the wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components, the electronic
components and the fitting and repair
procedures within the PEUGEOT network
are observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. Intelligent Traction Control

System to improve traction on slippery
surfaces (snow, black ice, mud...).
This system checks for situations of difficult
surface adhesion that could make it difficult
to move off or make progress.
In these situations, Intelligent Traction
Control
takes over from the ASR
system,
by transferring drive to the wheel with the
best grip on the ground to provide the best
traction and trajectory control.
Activation
On starting the vehicle, the system is
deactivated.
Press the button, located on the dashboard,
to activate the system; the warning lamp in
the button comes on.
The system is active up to about 18 mph
(30 km/h).
Once the speed exceed 18 mph (30 km/h),
the system is deactivated automatically, but
the warning lamp in the button comes on.
The system is reactivated automatically as
soon as the speed drops below 18 mph
(30 km/h).

SAFETY


Deactivation
Press the button, located on the dashboard,
to deactivate the system; the warning lamp
in the button goes off and the ASR
system is
active again.

Operating fault
This warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel if there is a
fault with the system.


FIXED SPEED LIMITER

If your vehicle is fitted with this function,
the speed of your vehicle can be limited
to a fixed speed of approximately 55 mph
(90 km/h) or 60 mph (100 km/h). This
maximum speed cannot be changed.
A label in the passenger compartment
indicates this maximum speed.
The fi xed speed limiter is not a function of
the cruise control type. It cannot be activated
or deactivated by the driver while driving.

Airbags

SAFETY
AIRBAGS
The airbags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants in the
event of a serious collision; they work in
conjunction with the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, the
electronic detectors record and analyse any
abrupt deceleration of the vehicle:
if the triggering threshold is reached, the
airbags inflate instantly and protect the
occupants of the vehicle.
Immediately after the impact, the airbags
deflate rapidly, so that they do not hinder the
visibility of the occupants nor their possible
exit from the vehicle. The airbags will not be deployed in collisions
which are not serious, for which the seat belt
is sufficient to provide maximum protection.
The seriousness of the collision depends on
the nature of the obstacle and the speed of
the vehicle at the moment of impact.

Airbags

only operate when the ignition is
switched on. Front airbags

These are fitted in the centre of the steering
wheel for the driver and in the dashboard
for the front passenger. They are deployed
simultaneously, except in cases where the
passenger airbag has been deactivated.
The gas escaping from the deployed
airbags can be a minor irritant.
The noise of the detonation may result in
a slight loss of hearing for a short time.
Front airbag fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer to
have the system checked.

Airbags
SAFETY
Good practice

If your vehicle is fitted with front,

lateral

and curtain

airbags

, in order for these to
be fully effective, 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 airbags (child,
animal, object...).
This could hamper the operation of the
airbags or injure the occupants.
All work on the airbag systems is strictly
prohibited unless it is carried out by qualified
personnel of the PEUGEOT network.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.

Front airbags

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
dashboard.
Smoke as little as possible; deployment of
the airbags can cause burns or the risk of
injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel
or hit it violently.


Lateral airbags

Only put approved covers on the front seats.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the front seat
backs. This could cause injury to the chest
or arms when the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.
Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the pillars or
the roof. This could cause injury to the head
when the curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the bolts from the grab
handles installed on the roof, they play a
part in securing the curtain airbags. 12
