Lateral airbags
System which protects the driver and
front passenger in the event of a seri-
ous side impact in order to limit the risk
of injury to the chest.
Each lateral airbag is fi tted in the front, in
the outer side of the seat back frame.

Deployment
The lateral airbags are deployed 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.
Curtain airbags
System which protects the driver and
passengers (with the exception of the
rear centre passenger) in the event of a
serious side impact in order to limit the
risk of injury to the side of the head.
Each curtain airbag is built into the pil-
lars and the upper passenger compart-
ment area.
Operating fault
Deployment
The curtain airbag is deployed at the
same time as the corresponding later-
al airbag in the event of a serious side
impact applied to all or part of the side
impact zone B
, perpendicular to the lon-
gitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the
outside towards the inside of the vehicle.
The curtain airbag 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

The electric parking brake combines
2 operational modes:


- Automatic application/release

Application is automatic when the
engine stops, release is automatic
on use of the accelerator (activated
by default),

- Manual application/release

The parking brake can be applied/
released manually by pulling control
lever A
.


Deactivation is recommended in
particularly cold conditions (ice)
and during towing (breakdown,
caravan...). Refer to the "Manual
release" paragraph.



Programming the mode
Depending on the country of registration
of the vehicle, the automatic application
when the engine is switched off and the
automatic release when you press the
accelerator can be deactivated.
If this warning lamp in the in-
strument panel comes on, the
automatic mode is deactivated. The system can be ac-
tivated/deactivated by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
The parking brake is then applied and
released manually. When the driver's
door is opened, there is an audible beep
and a message is displayed if the brake
is not applied.


Do not place any object (packet
of cigarettes, telephone, ...) be-
hind the electric brake control.

137
With the vehicle stationary, to apply the
parking brake whether the engine is
running or off, pull
on control lever A
.
The application of the parking brake is
confi rmed by:


-
lighting of the braking warn-
ing lamp and of the warning
lamp P
in the control lever A
,

When the driver’s door is opened with
the engine running, there is an audible
signal and a message is displayed if
the parking brake has not been applied,
unless the gear lever is in position P

(Park).

If necessary, you can utilise maximum
application
of the parking brake. It is
obtained by means of a long pull
on
control lever A
, until you see the mes-
sage "Handbrake on" and an audible
signal is heard.

In the case of towing, a loaded
vehicle or parking on a gradient,
make a maximum application

check that parking brake
warning lamp in the instrument
panel is on fi xed, not fl ashing.

Maximum application is essential:



- in the case of a vehicle towing a
caravan or a trailer, if the automatic
functions are activated but you are
applying the parking brake manually,

- when the gradient you are parked
on is variable in its effect (e.g. on a
ferry, in a lorry, during towing),

- display of the message
"Handbrake on".
- display of the message
"Handbrake off".

Particular situationsEMERGENCY BRAKING


In the event of a failure of the main ser-
vice brake or in an exceptional situation
(e.g. driver taken ill, under instruction,
etc) a continuous pull on control le-
ver
A
will stop the vehicle
.
The electronic stability programme
(ESP) provides stability during emer-
gency braking.
If the emergency braking malfunctions,
one of the following messages will be
displayed:


- "Parking brake faulty".

- "Parking brake control faulty".
In certain situations (e.g. starting the
engine), the parking brake can auto-
matically alter its force. This is nor-
mal operation.
To advance your vehicle a few cen-
timetres without starting the engine,
but with the ignition on, press on the
brake pedal and release the park-
ing brake by pulling
then releasing

control lever A
. The full release of
the parking brake is confi rmed by the
extinction of warning lamp in control
lever A
and of the warning lamp in
the instrument panel and display of
the message "Handbrake off".
If the parking brake malfunctions
while applied
or if the battery runs
fl at, an emergency release is always
possible.

If a failure of the ESP system is
signalled by illumination of this
warning lamp, then braking sta-
bility is not guaranteed.

The emergency braking must
only be used in exceptional
circumstances.
In this event, stability must be assured
by the driver by repeating alternate "pull
release" actions on control lever A
.

141
HILL START ASSIST
System which keeps your vehicle im-
mobilised temporarily (approximately
2 seconds) when starting on a gradi-
ent, the time it takes to move your foot
from the brake pedal to the accelerator
pedal.
This function is only active when:


- the vehicle is completely stationary,
with your foot on the brake pedal,

- in particular conditions on a slope,

- with the driver’s door closed.
The hill start assist function cannot be
deactivated.

Operation


On an ascending slope, with the ve-
hicle stationary, the vehicle is held
for a brief moment when you release
the brake pedal,
if the gear lever is in
position A
or M
.



On a descending slope, with the vehicle
stationary and reverse gear engaged,
the vehicle is held for a brief moment
when you release the brake pedal.





Do not exit the vehicle while
it is being held in the hill start
assist phase.
If you need to exit the vehicle with
the engine running, apply the parking
brake manually then ensure that the
parking brake warning lamp and the
warning lamp P
on the lever (of the
electric brake) are permanently on. Operating fault

If a malfunction of the system occurs,
these warning lamps come on. Contact
a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system
checked.
