The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child's protection in the event of an
accident.
For information on the possibilities
for installing ISOFIX child seats in
your vehicle, refer to the summary
table.
"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS
There are three rings for each seat:
- two rings A , located between the vehicle seat back and cushion, indi-
cated by a marking, - a ring B behind the seat for fi xing
the upper strap, referred to as the
Top Tether .
The top tether is used to secure the up-
per strap of child seats that have one.
This arrangement limits the forward tip-
ping of the child seat in the event of a
front impact.
This ISOFIX mounting system provides
fast, reliable and safe fi tting of the child
seat in your vehicle.
Your vehicle has been approved in ac-
cordance with the
latest ISOFIX regu-
lation .
The seats, represented below, are fi tted
with regulation ISOFIX mountings:
The ISOFIX child seats are fi tted with
two latches which are secured on the
two rings A .
Some seats also have an upper strap ,
known as the Top Tether, which is at-
tached to ring B . To secure the child seat to the top tether:
- remove and stow the head restraint
before installing the child seat in
this seating position (refi t it once the
child seat has been removed),
- pass the strap of the child seat over the top of the seat backrest, centred
between the apertures for the head
restraint rods,
- fi x the hook of the upper strap to the ring B ,
- tighten the upper strap.
Follow the instructions for fi tting
child seats contained in the seat
manufacturer's installation guide.

The driver must ensure that passen-
gers use the seat belts correctly and
that they are all restrained securely
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt
buckles as they will not fulfi l their
role fully.
The seat belts are fi tted with an in-
ertia reel permitting automatic ad-
justment of the length of the strap
to your size. The seat belt is stowed
automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that
the seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on
the pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned
in the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fi tted with an
automatic locking device which
comes into operation in the event
of a collision, emergency braking
or if the vehicle rolls over. You can
release the device by pulling fi rmly
on the strap and releasing it so that
it reels in slightly. In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
- be tightened as close to the body as
possible,
- be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking that it
does not twist,
- be used to restrain only one person,
- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- not be converted or modifi ed to avoid affecting its performance.
In accordance with current safety regula-
tions, for all repairs on your vehicle, go to
a qualifi ed workshop with the skills and
equipment needed, which a PEUGEOT
dealer is able to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regu-
larly by a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop, particularly if the straps
show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is
positioned and reeled in correctly. Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the passen-
ger is less than 12 years old or shorter
than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to se-
cure more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your lap.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impact , the pre-
tensioning device may be deployed
before and independently of the air-
bags. Deployment of the pretensioners
is accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic car-
tridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

AIRBAGS
The airbags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants in
the event of violent collisions. They sup-
plement the action of the force-limiting
seat belts.
In this case, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side
impacts suffered in the impact detection
zones:
- in the event of a serious impact, the airbags are deployed instanta-
neously and contribute towards pro-
tecting the occupants of the vehicle;
immediately after the impact, the
airbags defl ate rapidly so that they
do not hinder the visibility of the oc-
cupants or their possible exit from
the vehicle,
- in the event of a minor impact or rear impact and in certain roll-over
conditions, the airbags will not be
deployed; the seat belt alone con-
tributes towards providing your pro-
tection in these situations.
The airbags do not operate when
the ignition is off.
This equipment only operates once.
If a second impact occurs (during
the same or a subsequent acci-
dent), the airbag will not operate. Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
Front airbags
Deployment
The airbags are deployed, except the
passenger's front airbag if it 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 and directed from the front to 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.
The deployment of one or more
airbags is accompanied by a slight
discharge of smoke and a noise,
due to the activation of the pyro-
technic cartridge incorporated in
the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sen-
sitive individuals may experience
some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may
result in a slight loss of hearing for
a short time. System which protects the head and
chest of the driver and front passenger
in the event of a front impact.
The driver's airbag is fi tted in the centre
of the steering wheel; the front passen-
ger's airbag is fi tted in the dashboard
above the glove box.

* According to country.
Knee airbag *
System which protects the driver's knees
in the event of a serious front impact.
This airbag is fi tted in the dashboard
below the steering column.
Deployment
It is deployed at the same time as the
front airbags.
Lateral airbags
System which protects the driver and
front passenger in the event of a violent
side impact in order to limit the risks of
injury to the chest.
Each lateral airbag is fi tted in the front
seat back frame, on the door side.
Deployment
It is deployed unilaterally in the event
of a violent impact applied to all or part
of the side impact zone B , operating at
right angles to the longitudinal axis of
the vehicle in a horizontal plane and
from the exterior of the vehicle towards
the interior.
The lateral airbag comes between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
corresponding door trim panel. Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone. The airbag may not be deployed in
an impact or minor accident on the
side of the vehicle.
The airbag is not deployed in a
front or rear impact.
Operating fault If this warning lamp comes on
on the instrument panel, accom-
panied by an audible signal and
a message in the screen, con-
tact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop to have the system checked.
The airbags may no longer be deployed
in the event of a violent impact.

Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you
can engage position P or N to place the
gearbox in neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake
to immobilise the vehicle.
Operating fault
There is a risk of damage to the
gearbox:
- if you press the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time,
- if you force the movement of the gear lever from the P posi-
tion to another position when
the battery is fl at.
To reduce fuel consumption when
at a prolonged standstill with the
engine running (traffi c jam...), put
the gear lever in the N position and
apply the parking brake.
Manual operation
Select position M for sequential
changing of the four gears.
Push the lever towards the + sign to
change up a gear.
Pull the lever towards the - sign to
change down a gear.
D disappears and the gears
engaged appear in succes-
sion in the instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low
or too high, the gear selected
fl ashes for a few seconds, then the ac-
tual gear engaged is displayed.
It is possible to change from position D
(automatic) to position M (manual) at
any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or mov-
ing very slowly, the gearbox selects
gear M1 automatically.
The sport and snow programmes do not
operate in manual mode. If the lever is not in position
P ,
when the driver's door is opened or
approximately 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off, a warning
message appears in the screen.
Return the lever to position P ;
the message disappears.
It is only possible to change from one
gear to another if the vehicle speed and
engine speed permit; otherwise, the
gearbox will operate temporarily in au-
tomatic mode.
Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a
gear is not engaged correctly
(selector between two posi-
tions). When the ignition is on, the
lighting of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
multifunction screen, indicates a gear-
box fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to
back-up mode and is locked in 3rd gear.
You may feel a substantial knock when
changing from P to R and from N to R .
This will not cause any damage to the
gearbox.
Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local
speed restrictions permitting.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop as soon as possible.
When driving on fl ooded roads or
when crossing a ford, proceed at
walking pace.
