The driver must ensure that
passengers use the seat belts
correctly and that they are all
restrained securely before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for
short journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt
buckles as they will not fulfi l their role
fully.
The seat belts are fi tted with an inertia
reel permitting automatic adjustment
of the length of the strap to your size.
The seat belt is stowed automatically
when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in
the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fi tted with an au-
tomatic locking device which comes
into operation in the event of a collision,
emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls
over. You can release the device by
pulling fi rmly on the strap and releasing
it so that it reels in slightly. In order to be effective, a seat belt
must:
- be tightened as close to the body
as possible,
- be pulled in front of you with a
smooth movement, checking that
it does not twist,
-
be used to restrain only one person,
- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- not be converted or modifi ed to
avoid affecting its performance.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, for all repairs on your
vehicle, go to a qualifi ed workshop
with the skills and equipment need-
ed, which a PEUGEOT dealer is able
to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regu-
larly by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop, particularly if the
straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and reeled in correctly.
Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to secure
more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your lap.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impact
, the pre-
tensioning device may be deployed
before and independently of the
airbags. Deployment of the preten-
sioners is accompanied by a slight
discharge of harmless smoke and
a noise, due to the activation of the
pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in
the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

Operation
You have identifi ed a parking space:
)
Press button A
to activate the func-
tion.
)
Activate the direction indicator on
the side where the space is to be
measured.
)
During the measuring, go forward
the length of the space, at a speed
less than 12 mph (approximately
20 km/h), to prepare for your ma-
noeuvre.
The system then measures the size
of the space.
)
The system informs you of the level
of diffi culty of the manoeuvre via a
message in the multifunction screen
accompanied by an audible signal.
The function displays the following
types of message:
Parking possible
Parking diffi cult
Parking not advised
The function deactivates itself automati-
cally:
- when you engage reverse gear,
- when you switch off the ignition,
- fi ve minutes after activation of the
function or after the last measure-
ment operation,
- if the vehicle speed exceeds the
threshold of 45 mph (approximately
70 km/h) for one minute.
- The function remains avail-
able after each measure-
ment and so can measure
a number of places succes-
sively.
- In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered
by dirt, or by ice or snow.
- The parking space sensor func-
tion deactivates the front parking
sensors during the space mea-
suring phase when you are in for-
ward gear.
If there is a malfunction, have the sys-
tem checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.
If the lateral distance between
your vehicle and the parking
space is too great, the system
may not operate.
