AT A GLANCE
  Limit the causes of excess consumption 
  Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in 
the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats. 
 Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance 
(roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in 
preference. 
 Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.  
  At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer 
tyres.   
  Observe the recommendations on maintenance 
  Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the 
label in the door aperture, driver's side. 
 Carry out this check in particular: 
   -   before  a  long  journey, 
  -   at each change of season, 
  -   after a long period out of use.  
 Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or 
caravan.  
  Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air 
filter, cabin filter...) and observe the schedule of operations in the 
warranty and maintenance record.    
  When refuelling, do not continue after the 3 
rd  cut-off of the nozzle 
to avoid any overflow.  
  At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 
1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel 
consumption settle down to a consistent average.

   Airbags   
  Deactivating the passenger's front airbag 
 When  OFF  is selected, the passenger's front 
airbag will not be triggered in the event of an 
impact. 
 As soon as the child seat is removed, select  ON  to 
re-activate the airbag and thus ensure the safety of 
your passenger in the event of an impact.   Lateral airbags and curtain airbags 
 If your vehicle is fitted with lateral airbags, 
these are fitted to the front seat backs on 
the door side. 
 The curtain airbags are fitted to the door 
pillars and the upper part of the passenger 
compartment, in the roof over the front cab 
seats. 
 They inflate between the occupant and the 
glazed area. 
 They are deployed independently of each 
other depending on which side the collision 
occurs. 
 To ensure the safety of your child, it is 
essential to deactivate the passenger's 
front airbag when you install a rearward 
facing child seat on the front passenger 
seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being 
killed or seriously injured if the airbag were 
to inflate. 
 If your vehicle is not fitted with this facility: 
do not install a rearward facing child seat.    Deactivation  check 
  T his is confirmed by the 
illumination of this warning lamp, 
accompanied by a message in 
the display screen, every time the 
engine is started.   
  Operating  fault  If this warning lamp comes on, 
contact a PEUGEOT dealer to 
have the vehicle checked.   
 Refer to the "Technology on board - 
Vehicle configuration" section. 
 The setting is made using the " 
MODE " 
button: in the "Passenger airbag" menu, 
select "  OFF ".

SAFETY
Airbags
  Good  practice 
  If your vehicle is fitted with front, lateral 
and curtain airbags, in order for these to 
be fully effective, observe the following 
safety rules:  
 Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt. 
 Sit in a normal upright position. 
 Do not leave anything between the 
occupants and the airbags (child, animal, 
object...). 
 This could hamper the operation of the 
airbags or injure the occupants. 
 All work on the airbag systems must be 
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop. 
 After an accident or if the vehicle has been 
stolen or broken into, have the airbag 
systems  checked.  
  Front  airbags 
 Do not drive holding the steering wheel 
by its spokes or resting your hands on the 
centre part of the wheel. 
 Passengers must not place their feet on the 
dashboard. 
 Smoke as little as possible; deployment of 
the airbags can cause burns or the risk of 
injury from a cigarette or pipe. 
 Never remove or pierce the steering wheel 
or hit it violently.  
  Lateral  airbags 
 Fit only approved covers on the front seats, 
compatible with the deployment of lateral 
airbags. For information on the range of 
covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer. 
 Do not fix or attach anything to the front seat 
backs. This could cause injury to the chest 
or arms when the lateral airbag is deployed. 
 Do not sit with the upper part of the body 
any nearer to the door than necessary.  
  Curtain  airbags 
 Do not fix or attach anything to the pillars or 
the roof. This could cause injury to the head 
when the curtain airbag is deployed. 
 Do not remove the bolts from the grab 
handles installed on the roof, they play a 
part in securing the curtain airbags.

 "ISOFIX"  MOUNTINGS 
 Your vehicle has been approved 
to the latest ISOFIX regulation.  The mountings comprise three rings for each 
seat: 
   -   two front rings, located between the 
vehicle seat back and cushion, indicated 
by a label, 
  -   a rear ring, for securing the upper  strap referred to as the TOP TETHER, 
indicated by another label.  
 This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast, 
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in 
your vehicle. 
 The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two 
latches which are secured easily on the two 
front rings. 
 Some also have an upper strap which is 
attached to the rear ring. 
 To attach this strap, remove and stow the 
head restraint before installing the child seat 
at the seating position (refit it once the child 
seat has been removed). Then fix the hook 
on the rear ring and tighten the upper strap. 
 If fitted on your vehicle, the regulation 
ISOFIX mountings are located by labels. 
 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 fitting 
ISOFIX child seats to your vehicle, refer to 
the summary table for the location of the 
ISOFIX child seats.
