Safety
Group of supplementary systems which help
you to obtain optimum braking in complete
safety in emergency situations:
- anti-lock braking system (ABS),
- electronic brake force distribution (EBFD).
Braking assistance systems
Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution
Linked systems which improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking,
in particular on poor or slippery sur faces.
Activation
The anti-lock braking system is active if the
vehicle speed is higher than 6 mph (10 km/h).
It is deactivated when the vehicle speed falls
below 3 mph (5 km/h).
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk of
wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make itself
felt by slight vibration of the brake pedal.
Operating fault
When the vehicle is stationary
If this warning lamp comes on, accompanied by
the indication on the instrument panel screen, it
indicates a malfunction of the anti-lock braking
system which could result in a loss of control of
the vehicle when braking.
The vehicle retains normal braking.
Drive carefully at moderate speed and contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
When braking in an emergency, press
very firmly without releasing the
pressure. The warning lamp comes on for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched on
(ON position). If it does not switch off or
does not come on, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Safety
When the vehicle is moving
If this warning lamp comes
on continuously it indicates a
malfunction of the anti-lock braking
system which could result in a loss of
control of the vehicle on braking.
The two warning lamps comes on at the
same time and the two warnings are
displayed alternately in the instrument
panel screen.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
The vehicle retains normal braking.
Drive carefully at moderate speed and contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or qualified workshop as
soon as possible. If these two warning lamps come on, linked
with the warnings on the instrument panel
screen, they indicate a malfunction of the
electronic brake force distribution which could
result in a loss of control of the vehicle on
braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Safety
Associated systems which guarantee the directional stability of the vehicle within the limits of the laws of physics:
- traction control (TCL),
- active stability control (ASC).
Traction control and active stability control
Traction control optimises traction to prevent
wheel spin, by acting on the brakes of the
driving wheels and on the engine.
Active stability control acts on the brake of one
or more wheels and on the engine to keep the
vehicle on the trajectory required by the driver.
Activation
These systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
The illumination of this warning lamp
in the instrument panel indicates
that the ASC and TCL systems are
deactivated.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground, ...), it may be advisable to deactivate
the ASC system, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip.
This is indicated by flashing of this
symbol on the instrument panel
screen.
Trajectory control systems
)
Press this button, located to the left of the
steering wheel, until the symbol appears in
the instrument panel screen.
Operation
They operate when the vehicle speed is higher
than 10 mph (15 km/h).
They come into operation in the event of a grip
or trajectory problem.

Safety
Reactivation
Operating fault
The illumination of one of these warning lamps
accompanied by a message in the instrument
panel screen indicates a malfunction of these
systems.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the ASC/ TCL systems
checked. The ASC/ TCL systems offer exceptional
safety in normal driving, but this should
not encourage the driver to take extra
risks or drive at high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on obser vation of the
manufacturer's recommendations on:
- wheels (tyres and rims),
- braking components,
- electronic components,
- assembly and repair procedures.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
)
Press this button again to reactivate the
ASC and TCL systems.
When the warning lamp goes off, this indicates
the reactivation of the ASC and TCL systems.

If the driver does not fasten their seat belt
within one minute after switching on the
ignition, the warning lamp flashes accompanied
by an intermittent audible signal and a display

The warning lamp, the audible signal and the
display stop after approximately 90 seconds
and return until the driver fastens their seat
belt.
If the seat belt is unfastened while the vehicle
is moving
, you are alerted by the same
warnings. When the ignition is switched
on, this warning lamp comes on
accompanied by an audible signal for
a few seconds if the driver has not
fastened their seat belt.

Safety
Deactivation
Only the front passenger's airbag can be
deactivated:
)
insert the key in the passenger airbag
deactivation switch A
,
)
turn it to the "OFF"
position,
)
remove the key.
This warning lamp comes on in
the centre console panel when the
ignition is on and until the airbag is
reactivated. To ensure the safety of your child, the
passenger's airbag must be deactivated
when you install a "rear ward facing"
child seat on the front passenger seat.
Other wise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were triggered.
If the airbag warning lamp and the
display come on continuously, do not
install a "rear ward facing" child seat on
the front passenger seat.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Reactivation
When you remove the child seat, turn
switch A
to the "ON"
position to reactivate the
airbag and so ensure the safety of your front
passenger in the event of an impact.
The associated warning lamp goes off.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, accompanied by
a message, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to
have the system checked. The
airbags may no longer be deployed in
the event of a serious impact.

Safety
In the event of a minor impact or bump
on the side of the vehicle or if the
vehicle rolls over, the airbag may not be
deployed.
In the event of a rear or front collision,
the airbag is not deployed. System which protects the driver and
passengers (with the exception of the
rear centre passenger) in the event of
a serious side impact in order to limit the risk of
injury to the head.
Each curtain airbag is fitted in the pillars
and the upper section of the passenger
compartment.
Curtain airbags
Deployment
The curtain airbag is deployed at the same
time as the corresponding lateral airbag in the
event of a serious side impact applied to all or
part of the side impact zone B
, perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The curtain airbag inflates between the front or
rear occupant of the vehicle and the windows.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on in the instrument
panel and this display appears in the
instrument panel screen, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked. The airbags may no longer be
