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.
Pull on the parking brake lever, only
with the vehicle stationary
.
In the exceptional case of use of the
parking brake when the vehicle is
moving, apply the brake by pulling
gently to avoid locking the rear wheels
(risk of skidding).


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.

Releasing

Pull the lever and press the button to
lower the parking brake lever.

ABS

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 lamp comes
on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message
in the screen, it indicates a
malfunction of the ABS which
could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle on braking.
If this warning lamp comes
on, together with the brake
and STOP warning lamps,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen, 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 as soon as it is safe to do so.

In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

Seat belts

90
The inertia reels are fi tted with a device
which automatically locks the strap in
the event of a collision or emergency
braking or if the vehicle rolls over.
You can unfasten the seat belt by
pressing the red button on the buckle.
Guide the seat belt after unfastening.
The airbag warning lamp comes on
if the pretensioners are deployed.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
Recommendations for children:


- use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years old
or shorter than one metre fi fty,

- never allow a child to travel on
your lap, even with the seat belt
fastened.
For more information on child
seats, refer to the "Children on
board" section of chapter 4.
Clean the seat belt straps with
soapy water or a textile cleaning
product, sold by PEUGEOT
dealers.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, your PEUGEOT dealer
can guarantee all work or any checks,
from testing to maintenance, on your
seat belt equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly
(even after a minor impact) by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop: they must not show any
signs of wear, cutting or fraying
and they must not be converted or
modifi ed.

Front seat belts

The front seats are fi tted with
pretensioners and force limiters.
The seat belt associated with the
centre seat of the front bench does not
have a pretensioner.
In order to be effective, a seat belt
must:


- restrain one person only,

- must not be twisted, check by
pulling in front of you with an even
movement,

- be tightened as close to the body
as possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should
be positioned in the hollow of the
shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low
as possible on the pelvis.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as
they will not fulfi l their role completely.
If the seats are fi tted with armrests, the
lap part of the seat belt should always
pass under the armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened
correctly by pulling the strap fi rmly.

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 in contact with the
back of the vehicle's seat and that the
head restraint does not cause any
discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be removed,
ensure that it is stored or attached
securely to prevent it from being
thrown around the vehicle in the event
of sharp braking.
Children under the age of 10 must not
travel in the "forward facing" position
on the front passenger seat, unless
the rear seats are already occupied by
other children, cannot be used or are
absent.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag
when a "rear facing" child seat is
installed on the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were to infl ate.
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, fi t side blinds to the rear
windows.


Installing a booster seat

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, fi tted
with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.

CHECKS

Carbon filter and passenger
compartment filter
An access fl ap below the glove box
permits replacement of the fi lters.
The carbon fi lter permits continuous
and effective fi ltering of dust.
If the passenger compartment fi lter
becomes blocked, this may reduce the
performance of the air conditioning
system and generate unpleasant
odours.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment fi lter. By
means of its second special active
fi lter, it contributes to the purifi cation
of the air breathed by the occupants
and the cleanness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).

Particle emission filter (Diesel)

maintenance of the particle emission
fi lter must be carried out by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
On acceleration after the vehicle has
been running for a prolonged period
at very low speed or at idle, you may,
in exceptional circumstances, notice
the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust. This water vapour does not
have any adverse effect on vehicle
handling or the environment.


Battery

At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.


Brake pads

Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
check the thickness of the pads, even
between services.
Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.


Brake disc / drum wear

For information on checking the brake
disc / drum wear, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.


Parking brake

Where the parking brake travel is too great
or there is a reduction in the performance
of the system, the parking brake should be
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.


Oil filter

Change the fi lter regularly in
accordance with the servicing
schedule. Refer to the servicing and warranty
booklet for the replacement interval for
these components.
Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the
vehicle (urban driving...), change them
twice as often if necessary.

FILLING WITH FUEL

Low fuel level


Filling
The fuel tank must be fi lled with the
engine off
.


- Open the fuel fi ller fl ap.

- Insert the key, then turn it a quarter
turn.

- Remove the cap and hook it onto
the clip located on the inside of the
fl ap.


When fi lling with fuel, with the fuel
fi ller fl ap open, ensure that no one
attempts to open the sliding side
door. When the minimum fuel tank
level is reached, this warning
light comes on.
You then have approximately 8 litres

of fuel remaining. Fill up without delay
to avoid running out of fuel.
Never risk driving until you run out of
fuel as this may damage the emissions
control and injection systems.











Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
A label affi xed to the inside of the fl ap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used.
You must fi ll with at least 5 litres of fuel
for it to be registered by the fuel gauge.
When the fuel fi ller cap is opened,
there may be a slight air suction noise.
This vacuum is entirely normal and is
due to the sealing of the fuel circuit.
When fi lling the fuel tank, do not
continue after the 3 rd cut-off of the
nozzle. This could cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 60 litres.


- After fi lling the fuel tank, lock the
cap and close the fl ap.

The petrol engines are perfectly
compatible with E10 or E24 type petrol
biofuels (containing 10 % or 24 %
ethanol), conforming to European
standards EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for
vehicles marketed for the use of this
type of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The
quality of the ethanol must comply with
European standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are
marketed to run on fuels containing up
to 100 % ethanol (E100 type).
