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.
Curtain airbags
Do not attach anything or hang anything to
the roof, as this could cause head injuries
when the curtain airbag is deployed.
If fitted to your vehicle, do not remove the
grab handles installed on the roof, they
play a


part in securing the curtain airbags. Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment of the
lateral airbags. For information on the
product range of seat covers suitable for
your vehicle, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not attach anything to or hang anything
from the seat backrests (clothes, etc.) as
this could cause injuries to the thorax or
arm when the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.
General points relating to
child seats

If an app on your smart phone is used
via Mirror Screen, the sign displayed by
the system may be temporarily hidden. It
will be redisplayed as soon as you pass
another sign.Speed limiter
System which prevents the
vehicle from exceeding the speed
programmed by the driver.
The limiter is switched on manually: this
can be done regardless of the vehicle speed.
However, if you are travelling at less than
18

mph (30 km/h), the programmed speed will
be set at 18
mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter is paused using the control.
The programmed speed can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator firmly
beyond the point of resistance.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal until the set limit
speed has been reached again.
The programmed speed is erased when
the ignition is switched off.
The limiter cannot, under any
circumstances, replace respect for speed
limits, nor the vigilance of the driver.
Steering mounted control
The controls for this system are grouped
together on this steering mounted control.
1.Activation/deactivation of the limiter: by
pressing on the end of the control.
2. Programming the speed/decreasing the
value: by pressing the control downwards.
3. Resuming speed limitation/increasing the
value: by pressing the control upwards.
4. Pause limitation: by pulling the control
towards you.

Setting the thresholds for
triggering the alertDeactivation/reactivation
Press this button for more than 3 seconds.
T his warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the message
"PCS OFF" is displayed. Press this button again to reactivate the
system.
This indicator lamp lights up on the
instrument panel.
The alert thresholds determine how you want
to be alerted to the risk of an imminent collision
with the vehicle travelling in front of you.
You can choose from three thresholds:
A. "Distant", to be given an early alert
(cautious driving).
B. "Normal",
C. "Close", to be given a

later alert (sporty
driving).
Press this button in succession to
scroll through the thresholds:
The default setting is "Normal". The system is reactivated automatically at
every new start using the key or the "START/
STOP " button.
Operating limits
The system only detects vehicles
(c ar s,
trucks), stationary or moving in the same
direction of traffic.
It does not detect small vehicles (bicycles,
motorcycles), pedestrians or animals, nor
non-reflective stationary objects.
This system will not trigger or inter vene if the
driver:
-

p
resses hard on the accelerator (even if the
speed limiter is active),
-

o
r suddenly turns the steering wheel
(avoidance manoeuvre).
The ability to detect is reduced if:
-

y
ou are driving in an environment with sharp
turns and/or roads in poor condition,
-

c
arrying an excessively heavy load which
badly affects the horizontal attitude of your
vehicle,
-

y
our vehicle skids.

Lane departure warning
system
System that detects involuntary crossing of
longitudinal markings of roads, using a camera
that recognises the continuous or broken lines.
To increase your safety, the camera analyses
the image then triggers a
warning if the driver's
attention drops and the vehicle drifts over
a
lane marking (speed greater than 30 mph
(50


km/h)).
This system is particularly suited to motor ways
and dual carriageways.
The lane departure warning system
cannot under any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
You must obser ve the driving regulations
and take a
break every two hours.
When driving with snow chains or with the
spare wheel fitted, you must deactivate
the system.
Activation
Detection
You are alerted by an audible signal and the
lighting of a warning lamp in the instrument panel.
No warning is given while the direction indicator
is flashing and for approximately 20 seconds
after the direction indicator is switched off.

Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressure in all four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised after ever y tyre
pressure adjustment or wheel change.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a
drop in the pressure of one or more
tyres. The tyre under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.
This system still requires you to check the
tyre inflation pressure (including the spare
wheel) every month as well as before
a


long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
handling, extends braking distances and
causes early tyre wear, particularly in
adverse conditions (heavy loads, high
speeds, long journeys).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption. The tyre pressure specifications for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the
Identification markings
, refer to the
corresponding section.
Tyre pressures should be checked when
the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1 hour or after a journey of less than
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to the
pressures shown on the label.Under-inflation alert
