The 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.
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.
For optimal installation of the forward facing
child seat, verify that its backrest is as close
as possible to the backrest of the vehicle
seat, if possible in contact with it. The head restraint must be removed before
installing a
child seat with a backrest on
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. As a
safety precaution, do not leave:
- a c hild or children alone and unattended 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.
Advice
Children in front
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 front passenger airbag when
a
rear ward facing child seat is installed on the
front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were
deployed.
Installing a
booster seat
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 using a
booster seat
with a
backrest equipped with a belt guide at
shoulder level.
Safety

The camera may be disrupted or not work
in the following situations:
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate street
lighting, falling snow, heavy rain, dense
f o g , e t c .),
-
d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a
damp
road, leaving a
tunnel, alternating
shade and light, etc.),
-
c
amera or radar obstructed (mud, frost,
snow, condensation, etc.).
In these situations, detection performance
may be reduced. The system is not intended for the
following situations:
-
i
f the front end of the vehicle has
been modified (addition of long-range
headlamps, painting of the front
bumper),
-
d
riving on a racing circuit,
-
r
unning on a rolling road,
-
u
se of snow chains, non-slip covers or
studded tyres.
The use of mats not approved by
PEUGEOT may inter fere with the
operation of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
e
nsure that the mat is secured
c o r r e c t l y,
-
d
o not fit one mat on top of another.
Operation of the radar, located in the
front bumper, may be impaired by the
accumulation of dirt (dust, mud, etc.) or in
certain weather conditions (snow, frost,
e t c .) .
Clean the front bumper regularly.
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the
detection camera.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle, as this could
obscure the camera.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the cruise
c ontrol, you are alerted by the
illumination of this warning lamp
and the display of a
message in the
instrument panel, accompanied by
an audible signal.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Fitting directly to the roof
You must only attach the transverse bars to
the four fixing points located in the roof frame.
These points are concealed by the vehicle
doors when the doors are closed.
The roof bar fixings have a stud which must be
inserted into the opening of each fixing point.Maximum load distributed across the
transverse roof bars, for a
load height not
exceeding 40 cm (except bicycle carrier):
80 kg
.
For more information, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the
speed of the vehicle to the profile of the
road to avoid damaging the roof bars and
the vehicle's anchorage points.
For transporting objects which are longer
than the vehicle, refer to local legislation.
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as
close as possible to the roof.
Lash the load securely.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the effects of side winds
and the stability of the vehicle may be
affected.
On a
long journey, check the security of
the load at every stop.
Remove the roof bars once they are no
longer needed. Sunroof
Check that the load does not pass below
the roof bars so that it does not impede
the movements of the sunroof.
Bonnet
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 location of the interior bonnet release
lever prevents opening of the bonnet when
the left-hand front door is shut.
When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the stay with
care (risk of burns), using the protected
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.
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.
