2018 PEUGEOT 108 warning light

57
Impact detection zones
A.Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
The deployment of an airbag is
accompanied by a
slight emission of
smoke and a
noise, due to the detonation
of the pyrotechnic charge incorporated in
the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience slight irritation.
The detonation noise associated with the
deployment of an airbag may result in
a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.
Front airbags
This system protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a severe frontal
impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the
head and chest.
The 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.
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.
The 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.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel it indicates
a
malfunction of the airbags. Contact
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible to
have the system checked. The
airbags may no longer be deployed
in the event of a
serious impact.
If this is the case, do not install a child seat nor
a llow a passenger to sit in the front passenger seat.
Lateral airbags
System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious side impact
in order to limit the risk of injury to the chest,
between the hip and the shoulder.
Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest
frame, door side.

Gear shift indicator
System which reduces fuel consumption by
recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and the
equipment of your vehicle, the system can
recommend you to change gear.
Gear shift recommendations are for information
only. In fact, the road layout, the traffic density
and safety remain the deciding factors when
choosing the best gear. The driver therefore
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the indications issued by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
Example:
-

Y
ou are in third gear.
-

Y
ou press the accelerator pedal.
-

T
he system may suggest that you engage
a


higher gear.

Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the
s ystem, this warning lamp flashes in
the instrument panel.
Have it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a


qualified workshop.
Maintenance
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid any risk of injury resulting from an
automatic change to START mode.
The Stop & Start system requires a
12 V
battery of specific technology and
specification.
All work on this type of battery must be
carried out only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a


qualified workshop.
For more information on the 12
V batter y,
refer to the corresponding section. Driving on flooded roads
Before driving in a
flooded area, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Driving advice ,
particularly on flooded roads, refer to the
corresponding section.
Deactivation/Manual
reactivation
Press this button at any time to deactivate the
system.
Deactivation is confirmed by the
illumination of this indicator lamp in
the instrument panel.
If the system has been deactivated in STOP
mode, the engine restarts immediately.
Press this button again.
The system is active again; this is confirmed by
the indicator lamp going off in the instrument
panel.
The system reactivates automatically every
time the engine is started by the driver.
Speed Limit recognition
and recommendation
This system allows certain road signs detected
by the camera to be displayed on the touch
screen (especially the maximum authorised
speed).
Examples of signs recognised:
Specific speed limits, such as those for heavy
goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the touch
screen is updated as you pass a
speed limit
sign intended for cars (light vehicles).
Driving

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.
Driving

89
When weather conditions are difficult
(extremely heavy rain, snow, fog, hail,
etc.), braking distances increase, which
may reduce the system's ability to avoid
a

collision.
The driver must therefore remain
particularly cautious.
Never let snow build up on the bonnet
or any object above the bonnet nor at
the front of the roof: this could enter the
field of vision of the sensor and obstruct
detection.
Unwanted triggering
- passing a vehicle travelling in the other
direction, at a crossroads, when your
vehicle is turning left or right,
-

i
f the vehicle in front of you kicks up water or
snow,
-

i
f your vehicle stops very close to an
overhanging wall or other vehicles,
-

w
hen your vehicle quickly draws close to
a
vehicle in front,
-

i
f the vehicle is raised or lowered,
-

i
f the vehicle is passing through a plastic
curtain,
-

i
f you are driving in fog or smoke,
-

i
f the sensor is misaligned (replacement
after a
collision).
Operating faults
Sensor fault
Operation of the laser sensor may be
disrupted by accumulation of dirt, formation
of condensation on the windscreen or
the presence of a component causing an
obstruction (e.g. an open bonnet).
If this happens, you are alerted by
the flashing of this warning lamp in
the instrument panel. Do not stick or other wise attach any object
on the windscreen in front of the sensor.
System fault
If there is a system fault, you are
a lerted by the flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument
panel.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of an impact to the
windscreen at the sensor, deactivate the
system and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer
or a

qualified workshop to have your
windscreen replaced.
Do not attempt to remove, adjust or test
the sensor.
Only a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop is able to work on the system.
The system may detect a

risk of imminent
collision, particularly in the following conditions:
-

d

etection of an object close to the edge of
the road going into a

bend (safety rail, street
light, road sign),
-

d

etection of a

structure at the top or bottom
of a


sharp slope (advertising hoarding,
public lighting),
-

d

etection of reflective objects (central
reser vation, etc.) on the road,
-

d

etection of the top bar of a

bridge or
a


signal gantry,
-

p

assing a

vehicle travelling in the other
direction in a

corner, Use windscreen demisting and regularly clean
the area of the windscreen in front of the
sensor.
