Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
the air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer. In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines below:
F
I
f the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been parked in the sun for a considerable time, first ventilate the
passenger compartment for a few minutes.
P
lace the air flow control at a sufficient level to provide an adequate renewal of air in the passenger compartment.
F t
o o
btain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles,
the vents and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.
F
I
n normal conditions, use the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recirculation may cause misting of the windows and side
windows.
F
D
o not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation of the automatic air conditioning system.
F
O
perate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep it in good working order.
F e
n
sure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks"
section).
W
e recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. t
h
anks to its second special active filter, it contributes to the
purification of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad
odours and greasy deposits).
F t
h
e air conditioning uses power from the engine while operating. t
h
is results in an increase in the vehicle's fuel consumption.
W

hen towing at or near maximum capacity or on steep slopes in high ambient temperatures, switching off the air conditioning saves engine
power and so improves towing capacity.
C
ondensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the vehicle when stationary, which is per fectly normal.
F t
o e
nsure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have it checked regularly.
F
I
f the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a P
e
uge
Ot
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Airbags
General information
System designed to contribute towards
improving the safety of the occupants (with
the exception of the rear centre passenger)
in the event of violent collisions. t
h
e airbags
supplement the action of the seat belts fitted
with force limiters (all except the centre rear
passenger belt).
If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side impacts
sustained in the impact detection zones:
-

i
n the case of a serious impact, the airbags
are deployed instantly and contribute
towards better protection of the occupants
of the vehicle (with the exception of the
rear centre passenger); immediately after
the impact, the airbags deflate rapidly so
that they do not hinder visibility or the exit
of the occupants,
-

i
n the case of a minor or rear impact or in
certain roll-over conditions, the airbags
may not be deployed; the seat belt
alone contributes towards ensuring your
protection in these situations.
The airbags do not operate when the
ignition is switched off. Deployment of one or more of the
airbags is accompanied by a slight
emission of smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
th

is smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience slight
irritation.
th

e noise of detonation associated with
the deployment of one or more airbags
may result in a slight loss of hearing for
a short time.
Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. S ide impact zone.
Front airbags
Deployment
the airbags are deployed, except the
passenger's front airbag if it is deactivated, in the
event of a serious front impact 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.
th

e front airbag inflates between the thorax
and head of the front occupant of the vehicle
and the steering wheel, driver's side, and the
dashboard, passenger's side to cushion their
for ward movement. System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious front impact
in order to limit the risk of injury to the head and
thorax.
th
e driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the
steering wheel; the front passenger's airbag is
fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.
th

is equipment will only deploy once.
If a second impact occurs (during the
same or a subsequent accident), the
airbag will not be deployed again.

Safety

142
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,
object...), nor fix or attach anything close to
the inflation trajectory of the airbags; this
could cause injuries during their deployment.
Never modify the original definition of your
vehicle, particularly in the area directly
around the airbags.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
All work on the airbag system must be
carried out by a P
e
uge
Ot
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
ev

en if all of the precautions mentioned
are observed, a risk of injury or of minor
burns to the head, chest or arms when an
airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out.
t
h
e
bag inflates almost instantly (within a few
milliseconds) then deflates within the same
time discharging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.Lateral airbags
use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer.
For more information on accessories, refer
to the corresponding section.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs (clothing...).
t
h
is could cause injury
to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is
deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.
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.
Do not smoke as 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.
Do not fit or attach anything to the steering
wheel or dashboard, this could cause
injuries with deployment of the airbags.
Advice
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. th is
could cause injury to the head if the curtain
airbag is deployed.
If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove the
grab handles installed on the roof, they play
a part in securing the curtain airbags.
For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the safety recommendations below:

The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might
be caught by the fan blades. Because of the presence of electrical
equipment under the bonnet, it is
recommended that exposure to water
(rain, washing,


...) be limited.

JBL eQuIPMeNt
the Hi-Fi system is a 5.1 system developed by
PeugeOt in conjunction with JBL.
4 two-way speaker kits, separated by an active
filter, are fitted at front and rear.
th

ese are based on a fabric dome tweeter
delivering stable and balanced treble
reproduction and a 50W RMS neodymium
magnet inverted motor medium-woofer
possessing a very high output of bass
frequencies.
th

e central acoustic path in the dashboard
improves reproduction of the musical
scene, putting the listener in a situation that
realistically reproduces the original musical
recording.
th

e bass unit located in the boot carries a
150W triple-coil true subwoofer in an optimised
space, giving depth and impact to the bass
ranges.
th

is set of speakers is controlled by
a
10 -way 500W RMS 2 ohm amplifier,
using advanced surround sound and sound
distribution handling, so as to deliver optimum
per formance both for the driver and for the
passengers in the vehicle.
