After an accident or if the vehicle has beenstolen or broken into, have the airbagsystems checked. All work on the airbag system must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentionedare obser ved, a risk of injury or of minor burns to the head, chest or arms when an airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out. Thebag inflates almost instantly (within a fewmilliseconds) then deflates within the same
time discharging the hot gas via openings provided for this purpose.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats, compatible with the deployment the lateralairbags. For information on the range of seatcovers suitable for your vehicle, you can contact a PEUGEOT dealer (see "Practical information - § Accessories"). Do not fix or attach anything to the seatbacks (clothing...). This could cause injuryto the chest or arms if the lateral airbag isdeployed.Do not sit with the upper par t of the body anynearer to the door than necessary.
Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by itsspokes or resting your hands on the centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on thedashboard.
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.
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. This could cause injury to the head if the cur tain airbag is deployed.If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove thegrab handles installed on the roof, they play a part in securing the cur tain airbags.
For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:

of a tyre.3.Injection pipe. 4.Suction pipe, to remove the sealant product
if necessary.
5.Sachet containing a replacement valve core, a tool for removing/refitting the valve core and a speed restriction sticker.

Repair procedure
1. Sealing
FSwitch off the ignition.FIndicate on the speed restriction sticker provided, the wheel to be repaired, then fix it to the steering wheel as a reminder that a
wheel is in temporary use. FShake the sealant car tridge, remove the cap and screw on the injection pipe.
F Remove the valve cap for the tyre to be
repaired.F Remove the valve core using the tool
provided, and store in in a clean place.
F Connect the injection pipe to the valve of
the tyre to be repaired.
FTap the sealant car tridge (top down)several times with your hand, so as to injectall of the product into the tyre. FRemove the injection pipe.FRefit the valve core and tighten it using the
tool provided.
Take care, this product is harmful (e.g. ethylene-glycol, colophony...) if swallowed andcauses irritation to the eyes.Keep it out of reach of children. The use-by date of the sealant is marked on the car tridge.

2. Infl ation
FCheck that the compressor switch A
is in
the "OFF" position. FUncoil the compressor pipe B.
F
Connect this pipe to the valve of the
repaired wheel. F
Connect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket (ignition switch in
position "ON" or "ACC"). F Star t the compressor by turning the
switch A
to the "ON" position. F
Using the compressor, adjust the pressure in accordance with the vehicle's tyre
pressure label (located in the driver's door
aperture).
A loss of pressure indicates that the
puncture has not been fully plugged;contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for assistance.
F Remove the compressor and stow the kit. F
Drive off straight away at reduced speed (50 mph [80 km/h] max) limiting
the distance travelled to approximately120 miles (200 km).
As soon as possible, go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. Tell the technician that you have used the kit. After checking, the technicianwill advise you whether the tyre can berepaired or must be replaced.
If after around 5 to 7 minutes the pressure is not attained, this indicates that the tyre is not repairable; contacta PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifiedworkshop for assistance.
