Advice on child seats
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's protection in the event of an accident. Remember to fasten the seat belts or the child seat harnesses keeping the slack in relation to the child's body to a minimum , even for short journeys. For optimum installation of the "forward facing" child seat, ensure that the back of the child seat is as close as possible to the backrest of the vehicle's seat, or in contact if possible The head restraint must be removed before installing a child seat with a backrest on the passenger seat. Ensure that the head restraint is stowed or attached securely so that it is not thrown around the vehicle in the event of sharp braking. Refit the head restraint as soon as the child seat is removed.
Children at the front
The legislation on carrying a child on the front passenger seat is specific to each country. Refer to the legislation in force in your c o unt r y. Deactivate the passenger's airbag when a "rear ward facing" child seat is installed on the front seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if the airbag were deployed.
Installing a booster cushion
The chest part of the seat belt must be positioned on the child's shoulder without touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt passes correctly over the child's thighs. PEUGEOT recommends the use of a booster seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave: - one or more children alone and unsupervised in a vehicle, - a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with the windows closed, - the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle. To prevent accidental opening of the doors, use the "Child lock". Take care not to open the rear windows by more than one third. To protect young children from the rays of the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

Stop & Start
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel and the engine goes into standby:
- with an electronic gearbox , at speeds below 4 mph (6 km/h), press the brake pedal or put the gear lever in position N .
If your vehicle is fitted with the system, a time counter calculates the sum of the periods in STOP mode during a journey. It rests itself to zero every time the ignition is switched on with the key.
Special cases: STOP mode not available
STOP mode is not invoked when: - the driver's door is open, - the driver's seat belt is not fastened, - the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph (10 km/h) since the last engine start using
the key, - the electric parking brake is applied or being applied, - the engine is needed to maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment, - demisting is active, - some special conditions (battery charge, engine temperature, braking assistance, ambient temperature...) where the engine is needed to assure control of a system.
In this case, the "ECO" warning lamp flashes for a few seconds then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP mode; you must switch off the ignition with the key.
For your comfort, during parking maoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear. STOP mode does not affect the functionality of the vehicle, such as for example, braking, power steering...
The Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...). The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently. Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.

Reactivation Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the system, the "ECO OFF" switch warning lamp flashes then comes on continuously. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the vehicle may stall: all the instrument panel warning lamps come on. It is then necessary to switch off the ignition and start the engine again using the key.
Maintenance
This system requires a 12 V battery with a special specification and technology (reference numbers available from PEUGEOT dealers). Fitting a battery not listed by PEUGEOT introduces the risk of malfunction of the system. To charge the battery, use a 12 V charger and observe the polarity.
Press the "ECO OFF" switch again. The system is active again; this is confirmed by the switch warning lamp going off and a message in the screen.
The system is reactivated automatically at every new start using the key.
Before doing anything under the bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start system to avoid any risk of injury resulting from automatic operation of START mode.
The Stop & Start system makes use of advanced technology. For any work on the system go to a qualified workshop with the skills and equipment required, which a PEUGEOT dealer is able to provide.

Charging the battery using
a battery charger
Disconnect the battery from the vehicle. Follow the instructions for use provided by the manufacturer of the charger. Connect the battery starting with the negative terminal (-). Check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are covered with sulphate (whitish or greenish deposit), remove them and clean them.
The batteries contain harmful substances such as sulphuric acid and lead. They must be disposed of in accordance with regulations and must not, in any circumstances, be discarded with household waste. Take used remote control batteries and vehicle batteries to a special collection point.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery if the vehicle is to be left unused for
more than one month.
Before disconnecting the battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition before disconnecting the battery. Close the windows and the doors before disconnecting the battery.
Following reconnection of the battery
Following reconnection of the battery, switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute before starting to permit initialisation of the electronic systems. However, if problems remain following this operation, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. Referring to the corresponding section, you must yourself reinitialise (depending on version): - the remote control key, - the electric blind(s), - ...
Protect your eyes and face before handling the battery. All operations on the battery must be carried out in a well ventilated area and away from naked flames and sources of sparks, so as to avoid the risk of explosion or fire. Do not try to charge a frozen battery; the battery must first be thawed out to avoid the risk of explosion. If the battery has been frozen, before charging have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop who will check that the internal components have not been damaged and the casing is not cracked, which could cause a leak of toxic and corrosive acid. Do not reverse the polarity and use only a 12 V charger. Do not disconnect the terminals while the engine is running. Do not charge the batteries without disconnecting the terminals first. Wash your hands after wards.
Do not push the vehicle to start the engine if you have an electronic or automatic gearbox.
Some functions are not available if the battery is not sufficiently charged.

Fitting roof bars
When fitting transverse roof bars, use the four quick-fit fixings provided for this purpose: lift the concealing flaps, open the fixing covers on each bar using
the key, put each fixing in place and lock them on the roof one by one, ensure that roof bars are correctly fitted (by shaking them), close the fixing covers on each bar using the key.
If your vehicle is fitted with roof finishers, do not use them for carrying loads.
Maximum authorised weight on the roof rack, for a loading height not exceeding 40 cm (with the exception of bicycle c a r r i e r s): 65 kg. If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the speed of the vehicle to the profile of the road to avoid damaging the roof bars and the fixings on the roof. Be sure to refer to national legislation in order to comply with the regulations for transporting objects that are longer than the vehicle.
