Exceeding the programmed 
speed 
  Pressing the accelerator pedal in order 
to exceed the programmed speed 
will have no effect unless you press 
the pedal  fi rmly 
 beyond the  point of 
resistance 
. 
  The limiter is deactivated temporarily 
and the programmed speed fl ashes. 
  To return to the limiter function, reduce 
your speed to below the programmed 
speed.  
 
 
Switching the function off 
 
 
 
-   Place the switch in position  0 
 or 
switch off the ignition to switch the 
system off.  
  The last programmed speed remains in 
the memory.  
 
 
Operating fault 
 
The programmed speed is cleared 
then replaced by three dashes. 
  Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualifi ed workshop to have the system 
checked. 
   
Good practice  
 
 
 
Flashing of the speed 
 
The speed fl ashes: 
   
 
-   following forcing of the accelerator 
point of resistance, 
   
-   when the limiter cannot prevent an 
increase in the vehicle speed due 
to the profi le of the road or on a 
steep descent, 
   
-   in the event of sharp acceleration.  
   In any event, the speed limiter cannot 
replace the need to observe speed 
limits, nor can it replace the need for 
vigilance and responsibility on the part 
of the driver. 
  Always pay attention to the profi le 
of the road and sharp acceleration 
and stay in complete control of your 
vehicle. 
  To avoid any jamming under the 
pedals: 
   
 
-   ensure that the mat and its fi xings 
on the fl oor are positioned correctly, 
   
-   never place one mat on top of 
another.

FRONT FITTINGS
   
1. Lower glove box 
 
This may or may not be fi tted with a lid.  
 
 
Upper storage compartment 
 
This is located on the dashboard, 
behind the steering wheel. 
  A recess makes lifting of the lid easier 
when opening. Guide it to its rest 
position. 
  To close, guide the lid then press the 
centre gently. 
  Any liquid which could spill risks 
causing an electrical short circuit and 
therefore a potential fi re.  
 
 
3. Side storage compartment  
   
4. Bag hook 
 
Only hang fl exible bags which are not 
too heavy on this hook.

DRIVING SAFELY 
  HORN
 
Press the centre of the steering wheel. 
PARKING BRAKE
   
Applying 
 
Pull the parking brake lever up to 
immobilise your vehicle. 
  Check that the parking brake is applied 
fi rmly before leaving the vehicle. 
 
 
Releasing 
 
Pull the lever and press the button to 
lower the parking brake lever.  
 
HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
 
Press this button, the direction 
indicators fl ash. 
  They can operate with the ignition off. 
  The hazard warning lamps should only 
be used in dangerous situations, when 
stopping in an emergency or when 
driving in unusual conditions. 
  When parking on a slope, direct your 
wheels towards the pavement and pull 
the parking brake lever up. 
  There is no advantage in engaging 
a gear after parking the vehicle, 
particularly if the vehicle is loaded.  
 
If the parking brake is still on or has 
not been released properly, this is 
indicated by this warning lamp which 
comes on on the instrument panel.    
Automatic operation of hazard 
warning lamps 
  When braking in an emergency, 
depending on the force of deceleration, 
the hazard warning lamps come 
on automatically. They switch off 
automatically the fi rst time you 
accelerate. 
  It is also possible to switch them off by 
pressing the switch on the dashboard.   

   
 
Airbags  
 
92
 
 
Good practice 
 
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 hinder 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 is strictly 
forbidden unless it is carried out by 
qualifi ed personnel at 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. In fact, 
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.    
Lateral airbags 
  Only put recommended covers on 
the seats. These will not hinder 
infl ation of the lateral airbags. Contact 
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed 
workshop. 
  Do not fi x or attach anything to the seat 
backs. This could cause injury to the 
chest or arms when the lateral airbag 
infl ates. 
  Do not sit with the upper part of the 
body any nearer to the door than 
necessary.  
   
Front airbags 
  Do not drive holding the steering wheel 
by its spokes or resting your hands on 
the centre part of the wheel. 
  Do not allow passengers to place 
their feet on the dashboard, they risk 
serious injury if the airbag is deployed. 
  Smoke as little as possible 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.  
     
Airbags 
  only operate when the 
ignition is switched on. 
 
  This equipment only operates once. 
If a second impact occurs (during the 
same or a subsequent accident), the 
airbag will not operate. 
  The deployment of an airbag or 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 
sensitive individuals may experience 
some irritation. 
  The noise of the detonation may result 
in a slight loss of hearing for a short 
time. 
  It is imperative that the 
passenger's airbag is deactivated 
if a child seat is installed facing 
rearwards. Refer to the "Children on 
board" section of chapter 4.  

   
 
Airbags  
 
94
 
 
Front airbags 
 
The front airbags are fi tted in the 
centre of the steering wheel for the 
driver and in the dashboard for the 
front passenger(s). 
   
Deployment 
  They are deployed simultaneously, 
unless the passenger's front airbag 
has been deactivated, in the event of 
a serious front impact applied to all or 
part of the front impact zone  A 
 in the 
longitudinal centreline of the vehicle 
on a horizontal plane directed from the 
front towards the rear of the vehicle. 
  The front airbag infl ates between the 
front occupant of the vehicle and the 
dashboard to cushion their forward 
movement.     
Deactivation 
  Only the passenger's front airbag can 
be deactivated: 
   
 
-   With the ignition switched off 
, 
insert the key into the passenger's 
airbag deactivation switch 
   
-   turn it to the  "OFF" 
 position, 
   
-   then remove the key keeping the 
switch in the new position.  
  The airbag warning lamp in the 
instrument panel remains on 
while the airbag is deactivated.   If the two airbag warning lamps 
are on continuously, do not install 
a rear-facing child seat. Contact 
a PEUGEOT or a qualifi ed 
workshop.  
     
Front airbag fault 
  To ensure the safety of your child, 
it is essential to deactivate the 
passenger airbag when you install 
a rear-facing child seat on the front 
passenger seat. Otherwise, the child 
would risk being killed or seriously 
injured if the airbag were to infl ate.     
Reactivation 
 
In the  "OFF" 
 position, the passenger airbag 
will not be deployed in the event of an impact. 
  As soon as the child seat is removed, turn 
the airbag switch to the  "ON" 
 position to 
reactivate the airbag and thus ensure the 
safety of your passenger in the event of an 
impact.  
 
If this warning lamp comes 
on, accompanied by an 
audible signal and a message 
in the screen, consult a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualifi ed workshop to have 
the system checked.

  "Active Fleet Data" Telematic unit 
  Connected directly to the heart of 
the vehicle ("Full CAN" multiplexed 
network), as part of a comprehensive 
service, the telematic unit allows the 
sending in real time of information
such as: 
   
 
-  distance travelled, 
 
 
-   distance remaining before the next 
service, 
   
-   warnings and faults (oil level, 
coolant level, oil temperature, 
coolant temperature, etc...).  
  This enables Fleet managers 
to optimise the monitoring and 
management of their business 
vehicles.
