Puncture
Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden
movement of the steering wheel and
the brakes.
Change the damaged (punctured or
very defl ated) tyre, and have the tyre
pressure checked as soon as possible.
Sensor(s) not detected
Under-infl ation detection is absent
from one (or several) tyre(s). Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer to replace the faulty
sensor(s).
This message is also displayed when
one of the tyres is away from the
vehicle (being repaired) or when a
wheel without a sensor is fi tted.
All repairs and changing of tyres on a
wheel fi tted with this system must be
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system is a driving aid which does
not take the place of vigilance or the
responsibility of the driver.
This system does not remove the need
to have the tyre pressure checked
regularly (including the spare wheel), to
ensure that the dynamic performance
of the vehicle remains at its best and
to avoid premature wear of the tyres,
in particular in the case of arduous
driving (heavy load, high speed).
The system may temporarily be
disturbed by radio broadcasts on a
frequency close to it.
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION EMISSION CONTROL
Flat tyre
Check the tyre pressure as soon as
possible.
Refer to the "Changing a wheel"
section of chapter 7.
If the damaged tyre is temporarily
stored inside the vehicle, it will again
emit this message to remind you of the
necessity of having it repaired. This will
prevent another warning of the same
type being displayed.
Sensors check the tyre pressure during
driving (speed higher than 12 mph
[20 km/h]) and trigger a warning in the
event of a malfunction or puncture.
Any anomaly detected
(fl at or punctured tyre,
malfunction of a sensor)
is indicated by visual
and audible information
and is accompanied
by a message on the
display. EOBD (European On Board
Diagnosis) is a diagnostics
system which complies
with, among others, the
standards concerning
authorised emissions of:
- CO (carbon monoxide),
- HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
- NOx (nitrogen oxides) or particles,
detected by oxygen sensors placed
upstream and downstream of the
catalytic converters.
Therefore, the driver is warned of any
malfunction of this emission control
system by the lighting of this specifi c
warning lamp on the instrument panel.
There is a risk of damage to the
catalytic converter. Have it checked by
a PEUGEOT dealer.

Driving safely
(ABS - EBFD)
The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake
force distribution) systems improve the
stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle on braking, in particular on
poor or slippery surfaces.
The ABS prevents locking of the
wheels, the EBFD provides control of
the braking pressure wheel by wheel. If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on
the display, it indicates a
malfunction of the ABS which
could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle on braking.
If this warning light comes
on, together with the brake
and STOP warning lights,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
display, it indicates a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution
which could result in a loss of control of
the vehicle on braking.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables
the optimum braking pressure to be
reached more quickly, press the pedal
fi rmly without releasing it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is activated.
This alters the resistance of the brake
pedal under your foot.
To prolong the operation of the
emergency braking assistance system:
keep your foot on the brake pedal.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock. It does not
reduce the braking distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice, oil, etc...)
the ABS may increase the braking
distance. When braking in an
emergency, do not hesitate to press
the brake pedal fi rmly, without
releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able
to continue to manoeuvre the vehicle
to avoid an obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be
felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), ensure that these are
recommended by PEUGEOT.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.

ESP OFF

Driving safely
SAFETY

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL
(ESP)
These systems are linked and
complement the ABS.
The ASR system is very useful for
maintaining optimum drive and
avoiding losses of control of the vehicle
on acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent
the wheels skidding, by acting on the
brakes of the drive wheels and on the
engine. It also allows the directional
stability of the vehicle to be improved
on acceleration.
Use the ESP to hold your course
without attempting to countersteer.
If there is a variation between the
trajectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESP
system automatically acts on the
engine and the brake of one or more
wheels, in order to put the vehicle back
on course.
Disarming the ASR/ESP
systems
In certain exceptional conditions
(starting the vehicle when stuck in mud
or snow, or on loose ground...), it could
prove useful to disarm the ASR and
ESP systems to make the wheels spin
and regain grip.
Operating check
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 fi tting and repair
procedures within the PEUGEOT
network are observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Operation of the ASR and ESP
systems
The LED fl ashes when the
ASR or ESP is triggered.
They engage again:
- automatically above 30 mph
(50 km/h), When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the indicator
light comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message on the display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
The warning light may also come on if
the tyres are under-infl ated. Check the
pressure of each tyre.
- Press the button or turn
the dial to the ESP OFF
position (depending on
model).
- The indicator light comes on: the ASR
and ESP systems no longer act.
- manually by pressing the
button again or by turning
the dial to this position
(depending on model).

Towing a trailer
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
towing vehicle (see the "Identifi cation
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
fi tting of this equipment to a PEUGEOT
dealer.
If this equipment is not fi tted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative that
it is fi tted using the electrical pre-
equipment installed at the rear of the
vehicle and in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
In accordance with the general
instructions a reminder of which has
been given above, we draw your
attention to the risk linked with fi tting
a towbar or electrical accessory not
recommended by PEUGEOT. Fitting
such equipment could result in the
failure of your vehicle’s electronic
system. Please contact a PEUGEOT
dealer for information before fi tting this
type of equipment.
Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased.
Drive smoothly and at a moderate
speed.
ABS/ESP
The ABS or ESP systems only control
the vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.
Rear parking assistance
The assistance does not function while
the vehicle is towing.

Changing a wheel
The temporary tyre repair kit consists
of a compressor and a bottle
(containing a sealant).
Using the kit
1.
Tick the defl ated wheel on the
speed limitation sticker then affi x
the sticker to the vehicle's steering
wheel to remind you that a wheel is
in temporary use.
2.
Clip the bottle 1
on the
compressor 2
.
3.
Connect the bottle 1
to the valve of
the tyre to be repaired.
4.
Take care to unwind the
compressor pipe before connecting
it to the bottle.
5.
Connect the power lead to one of
the vehicle's 12 V sockets.
6.
Switch on the compressor by
pressing button A
until the tyre
pressure reaches 2.0 bars. If this
pressure cannot be reached, the
tyre cannot be repaired.
7.
Remove and store the compressor.
8.
Drive immediately, for a few miles
(kilometres), at reduced speed, to
fi ll the puncture.
9.
Adjust the pressure using the
compressor in accordance with the
recommendation for the vehicle and
check that the leak is fi lled correctly
(no further loss of pressure).
10.
Drive at reduced speed (50 mph
[80 km/h]). The tyre must be
examined and repaired by a
professional as soon as possible. After use, the bottle can be stored in
a plastic bag, supplied in the kit, to
avoid staining your vehicle with traces
of fl uid.
Warning: the bottle of gel contains
ethylene-glycol, a product which
is harmful if swallowed and which
causes irritation to the eyes.
Keep it out of reach of children.
After use, do not discard the bottle
into the environment, take it to a
PEUGEOT dealer or to an specialised
waste disposal site.
Replacement bottles of sealant are
available from PEUGEOT dealers.
The kit is located in one of the two
storage compartments located under
the front seats.
Vehicles supplied with a temporary
puncture repair kit do not have a spare
wheel or tooling (jack, wheelbrace, ...).
