Front airbags

The front airbags are fitted in the centre of

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.

Front airbag fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the screen,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop to have the system
checked.
If the two airbag warning lamps are
on continuously, do not install a rear-
facing child seat. Contact a PEUGEOT or a
qualified workshop.

For more information about weights,
refer to the administrative documents
(registration document, ...) or to the
"Weights" section of chapter 8.
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...


Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest objects are as close as possible
to the axle and the nose weight is close to
the maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.

Driving advice

A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in
neutral.

PUNCTURE REPAIR KIT

The kit is located at the left hand rear of the
vehicle.
The temporary puncture repair kit consists
of a compressor and a cartridge (containing
a sealant).
Using the kit


- switch off the ignition,

- affix the speed limitation sticker to the
vehicle's steering wheel to remind you
that a wheel is in temporary use,

- check that the switch A
is at position " 0
",

- connect the pipe of the bottle 1
to the
valve of the tyre to be repaired,

- connect the compressor's electrical plug
to the vehicle's 12V socket,

- start the vehicle and let the engine run,

- switch on the compressor by pressing
the switch A
to position " 1
" until the tyre
pressure reaches 2.0 bars,
- remove the compressor, unclip and
store the bottle in a sealed bag to avoid
staining your vehicle with traces of fluid,

- drive immediately, for approximately
two miles (three kilometres), at reduced
speed (between 12 and 37 mph (20 and
60 km/h)), to seal the puncture,

- stop to check the repair and the
pressure,
Vehicles supplied with a temporary
puncture repair kit do not have a spare
wheel or tooling (jack, wheelbrace, ...). If, after approximately five to ten
minutes, you are not able to obtain
this pressure, the tyre cannot be repaired;
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for roadside assistance.
