"ISOFIX" mountings
There are three rings for each seat:
- 
t
 wo rings A , located between the vehicle 
seat back and cushion, indicated by a 
marking, 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 on the two rings A
.
Some seats also have an upper strap , known 
as the Top Tether, which is attached to ring B .
Your vehicle has been approved in accordance with the latest
 ISOFIX regulation.
To secure the child seat to the TOP TETHER :
-  
r
 emove and stow the head restraint before 
installing the child seat on the seat (refit it 
once the child seat has been removed),
-  
p
 ass the upper strap of the child seat 
behind the seat backrest, between the 
apertures for the head restraint rods,
-  
f
 ix the hook of the upper strap to the ring B,
-  
t
 ighten the upper strap.
-  
a r
 ing B behind the seat and identified by a 
marking, referred to as the Top Tether  for 
fixing the upper strap.
The incorrect installation of a child seat 
in a vehicle compromises the child's 
protection in the event of an accident.
Follow strictly the fitting instructions 
provided by with the child seat. When fitting an ISOFIX child seat to 
the left hand rear seat, before fitting the 
seat, first move the centre rear seat belt 
towards the middle of the vehicle, so 
as to avoid the seat inter fering with the 
operation of the seat belt.
For information on the possibilities for 
installing ISOFIX child seats in your 
vehicle, refer to the summary table.
The seats, represented below, are fitted with

For optimum installation of the forward facing 
child seat, ensure that the back of the child 
seat is as close as possible to the backrest 
of the vehicle's seat, in contact if possible.
You must remove the head restraint before 
installing a child seat with backrest to a 
passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored or 
attached securely to prevent it from being 
thrown around the vehicle in the event of 
sharp braking. Refit the head restraint when 
the child seat is removed.
Advice
Installing a booster seat
Children at the frontThe incorrect installation of a child seat in a 
vehicle compromises the child's protection in 
the event of an accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt 
buckle under the child seat, as this could 
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the 
child seat harnesses keeping the slack 
relative to the child's body to a minimum, 
even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat 
belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened 
correctly on the child seat and that it secures 
the child seat firmly on the seat of your 
vehicle. If your passenger seat is adjustable, 
move it for wards if necessary. The legislation on carrying children on the 
front passenger seat is specific to each 
country. Refer to the legislation in force in 
your country.
Deactivate the passenger's front airbag 
when a rear ward facing child seat is installed 
on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child risks being seriously 
injured or killed if the airbag is deployed.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, fitted with a seat belt 
guide at shoulder level.
At rear seating positions, always leave 
sufficient space between the front seat and:
-
 
a r
 ear ward facing child seat,
-
 
t
 he child's feet for a child seat fitted 
forward facing.
To do this, move the front seat for wards 
and, if necessary, move its backrest into the 
upright position. As a safety precaution, do not leave:
-
 
a c
 hild or children alone and 
unsupervised in a vehicle,
-
 
a c
 hild or an animal in a vehicle which 
is exposed to the sun, with the windows 
closed,
-
 
t
 he keys within reach of children inside 
the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the doors 
and rear windows, 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, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

Distance alert and Active Safety Brake
This system includes three functions:
- D istance alert (alert if there is a risk of 
collision),
-
 I
ntelligent emergency braking assistance,
-
 
A
 ctive Safety Brake (automatic emergency 
b r ak ing).
Points on the Active Safety Brake 
function
The speed of the vehicle must be between 3 
and 87 mph (5 and 140 km/h) when a moving 
vehicle is detected.
The speed of the vehicle must not be higher 
than 50 mph (80 km/h) when a stationary 
vehicle is detected.
The speed of the vehicle must not be higher 
than 36 mph (60 km/h) when a pedestrian is 
detected.
The DSC system must not be deactivated or 
faulty.
All occupants must have fastened their seat 
belts.
Driving at steady speed on roads with few 
bends is required.
This system is designed to assist the 
driver and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to 
continuously monitor the state of 
the traffic, observing the driving 
regulations.
This system does not avoid the need for 
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The vehicle is fitted with a radar located in the 
front bumper and a camera at the top of the 
windscreen.
Conditions for activation and operation
The system is active from about 4 mph (7 km/h) 
and is deactivated below about 3 mph (5 km/h).
It takes account of:
-  
r
 egistered vehicles running in the same 
direction or stationary,
-
 
p
 edestrians present in the traffic lane 
(bicycles, motorcycles, animals and objects 
on the road are not necessarily detected).
Distance aler t: it warns the driver if their 
vehicle is at risk of collision with the 
vehicle in front or a pedestrian present in 
their traffic lane.
Intelligent emergency braking assistance: 
it completes the braking action taken by the 
driver if this is inadequate.
Active Safety Brake: it inter venes following 
the aler t if the driver does not react quickly 
enough and does not operate the vehicle's 
brakes.
If the driver fails to act, it contributes 
towards avoiding a collision or limiting 
its severity by reducing the speed of your 
vehicle. Following an impact, the system 
is automatically disabled; contact 
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked.

Fatigue detection system
It is recommended that you take a break as soon as you feel tired or at least every two hours.
Depending on version, the function either has the "Driving time warning" only, or this combined with the "Fatigue detection system".
Driving time warning
The system triggers an alert once it detects that 
the driver has not taken a break after two hours 
of driving at a speed above 40 mph (65 km/h).
This alert takes the form of the display of a 
message encouraging you to take a break, 
accompanied by an audible signal.
If the driver does not follow this advice, the 
alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is 
stopped.
The system cannot in any 
circumstances replace the need for 
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Do not take the wheel if you are tired.
As soon as the speed of the vehicle 
drops below 40 mph (65 km/h), the 
system goes into standby.
The driving time is counted again once 
the speed is above 40 mph (65 km/h).
Activation / Deactivation
The system is activated or deactivated via the 
vehicle configuration menu.
For more information on the menu, refer to the 
part covering your screen in the "Dashboard 
instruments" section.
The state of the system stays in memory when 
the ignition is switched off.The system resets itself if one of the following 
conditions is met:
-
 
e
 ngine running, the vehicle has been 
stationary for more than 15 minutes,
-
 
t
