TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
System which automatically and contin-
uously checks the pressure of the tyres
while driving. All repairs and changing of tyres on
a wheel fi tted with this system must
be carried out by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you fi t a
wheel which is not detected by your
vehicle (example: fi tting of snow
tyres), you must have the system
reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
This system does not avoid the need
to have the tyre pressures checked
regularly (refer to the "Identifi cation
markings" section) to ensure that
the optimum dynamic performance
of the vehicle is maintained and pre-
vent premature wear of the tyres,
particularly in arduous driving con-
ditions (heavy load, high speed).
The tyre pressures must be
checked cold, at least once a
month. Remember to check the
pressure of the spare wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to electro-magnetic
emissions on a frequency close to
that used by the system.
Sensors fi tted in each valve trigger a
warning in the event of problem (speed
above 12 mph (20 km/h)).

This warning lamp is displayed
in the instrument panel and/or a
message appears in the screen,
accompanied by an audible signal,
to identify the wheel concerned.


)
Check the tyre pressures as soon
as possible.
This check must be carried out when
the tyres are cold.
Under-infl ated tyre
The STOP
warning lamp comes
on and/or this warning lamp is
displayed in the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message in the screen
identifying the wheel concerned.


)
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so,
avoiding any sudden movement of
the steering wheel and the brakes.

)
Repair or change the damaged
wheel (punctured or very defl ated
tyre), and have the tyre pressure
checked as soon as possible.

Puncture
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for the driver to
be vigilant or to drive responsibly.
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
This warning lamp is displayed
on the instrument panel and/
or a message appears in the
screen, accompanied by an
audible signal, to locate the wheel or
wheels which are not detected or to in-
dicate a malfunction of the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).
This message is also displayed
when one of the wheels is away
from the vehicle (being repaired) or
when one or more wheels without a
sensor are fi tted.
If your vehicle is equipped with a
spare wheel, this is not
fi tted with
a sensor.

BRAKING ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS
Group of supplementary systems which
help you to obtain optimum braking in
complete safety in emergency situations:


- anti-lock braking system (ABS),

- electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD),

- emergency braking assistance (EBA).


Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution
Linked systems which improve the sta-
bility and manoeuvrability of your vehicle
when braking, in particular on poor or
slippery surfaces.

When braking in an emergency,
press very fi rmly without releasing
the pressure.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.

Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message in the mul-
tifunction screen, it indicates a
malfunction of the anti-lock braking sys-
tem which could result in loss of control
of the vehicle when braking.
If this warning lamp comes on,
together with the STOP
and ABS

warning lamps, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message
in the multifunction screen, it indicates a
malfunction of the electronic brake force
distribution which could result in loss of
control of the vehicle when braking.









Emergency braking assistance

System which, in an emergency, en-
ables you to obtain the optimum braking
pressure more quickly, thus reducing
the stopping distance.

Activation
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when there
is a risk of wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase
in braking effi ciency.
When braking in an emergency,
press fi rmly without releasing the
pressure.


You must stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.

In either case, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

SAFETY
The ESP/ASR systems offer ex-
ceptional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation
of the manufacturer's recommen-
dations on:


- wheels (tyres and rims),

- braking components,

- electronic components,

- repair and assembly procedures.
After an impact, have these sys-
tems checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.


Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a ve-
hicle which is bogged down, stuck in
snow, on soft ground, ...), it may be ad-
visable to deactivate the ASR and ESP
systems, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip.


)
Press the "ESP OFF"
button, located
in the middle of the dashboard.


If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel and the indi-
cator lamp in the button come on,
this indicates that the ASR and
ESP systems are deactivated.
On vehicles fi tted with the 1.6 litre THP 200 hp
engine, this action also deactivates the auto-
matic operation of hazard warning lamps.


Reactivation
These systems are reactivated automati-
cally each time the ignition is switched
back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h) (except
in the case of the 1.6 litre THP 200 hp
petrol engine).


)
Press the "ESP OFF"
button again
to reactivate them manually.
Operating fault

If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen, this indicates a mal-
function of these systems.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.















TRAJECTORY CONTROL
SYSTEMS

Activation
These systems are activated automati-
cally each time the vehicle is started.

Anti-slip regulation (ASR) and
electronic stability programme
(ESP)
They come into operation in the event
of a grip or trajectory problem.
This is indicated by fl ashing of
this warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel.

The anti-slip regulation (also known as
Traction Control) optimises traction to
prevent skidding of the wheels, by acting
on the brakes of the driving wheels and
on the engine.
The electronic stability programme acts
on the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to keep the vehicle on the
trajectory required by the driver, within
the limits of the laws of physics. On vehicles fi tted with the 1.6 litre THP
200 hp engine, this action also reacti-
vates the automatic operation of hazard
warning lamps.

SAFETY





AIRBAGS

The airbags have been designed to max-
imise the safety of the occupants in the
event of violent collisions. They supple-
ment the action of the force-limiting seat
belts.
In this case, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side
impacts suffered in the impact detection
zones:


- in the event of a serious impact,
the airbags are deployed instanta-
neously and protect the occupants
of the vehicle; immediately after the
impact, the airbags defl ate rapidly
so that they do not hinder the visibil-
ity of the occupants or their possible
exit from the vehicle,

- in the event of a minor impact or
rear impact and in certain roll-over
conditions, the airbags will not be
deployed; the seat belt alone is suf-
fi cient to provide maximum protec-
tion in these situations.

The deployment of one or more
airbags is accompanied by a slight
discharge of harmless smoke and
a noise, due to the activation of the
pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated
in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sen-
sitive individuals may experience
some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may
result in a slight loss of hearing for
a short time.

















Front airbags

System which protects the driver and
front passenger in the event of a seri-
ous front impact in order to limit the risk
of injury to the head and thorax.
The driver's airbag is fi tted in the centre
of the steering wheel; the front passen-
ger's airbag is fi tted in the dashboard
above the glove box.

Deployment
The airbags are deployed simultaneously,
unless the passenger's front airbag is de-
activated, in the event of a serious front im-
pact to all or part of the front impact zone A
,
in the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle
on a horizontal plane and directed from the
front to the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag infl ates between the tho-
rax and head of the front occupant of the
vehicle and the steering wheel, driver's
side, and the dashboard, passenger's
side to cushion their forward movement.
Impact detection zones


A.
Front impact zone.

B.
Side impact zone.


The airbags do not operate when
the ignition is off.

This equipment only operates once.
If a second impact occurs (during
the same or a subsequent acci-
dent), the airbag will not operate.

SAFETY













For the airbags to be fully
effective, observe the following
safety rules:
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child,
pet, object...). This could hamper the
operation of the airbags or injure the
occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has
been stolen or broken into, have the
airbag systems checked.
All work on the airbag system must be
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned
are observed, a risk of injury or of minor
burns to the head, chest or arms when
an airbag is deployed cannot be ruled
out. The bag infl ates almost instantly
(within a few milliseconds) then defl ates
within the same time discharging the
hot gas via openings provided for this
purpose.
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.
If possible, do not smoke as 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
Fit only approved covers on the seats, compatible with deployment of the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your vehicle,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer (see "Practical information § Accessories").
Do not fi x or attach anything to the seat backs. This could cause injury to the
chest or arms if the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not fi x or attach anything to the front head restraints (articles of clothing...).
This could cause injury to the head if the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.
