AirbagsThe airbags do not operate when the
engine is not running.
This equipment will only deploy once. If
a second impact occurs (during the same
or a
subsequent accident), the airbag will
not be deployed again.
The airbags have been designed to optimise
the safety of the occupants in the event of
a
serious collision; they work in conjunction
with the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a
serious collision, electronic
detectors record and analyse any abrupt
deceleration of the vehicle:
-
i
n the event of a
serious collision, the
airbags are deployed instantly and
contribute towards better protection of
occupants of the vehicle; immediately after
the impact, the airbags deflate rapidly so as
not to hinder visibility or a
potential exit by
the occupants,
-
i
n the case of a
minor or rear impact or in
certain rollover conditions, the airbags are
not deployed; the seat belt alone contributes
towards ensuring your protection in these
situations. Deployment of the airbags is accompanied
by a
slight discharge of smoke and
a
noise, resulting from activation of the
pyrotechnic charge incorporated in the
system.
Although this smoke is not harmful,
sensitive individuals may experience slight
irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result in
a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.
Front airbags
System which protects the driver and
passenger(s) in the event of a serious front
impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the
head and thorax.
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.
Malfunction
If this warning lamp comes on,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
Lateral airbags and curtain
airbags
If your vehicle is fitted with lateral airbags,
these are fitted to the front seat backrests on
the door side.
Curtain airbags are fitted to the door pillars and
the upper part of the passenger compartment,
in the roof over the front cab seats.
They inflate between the occupant and the
glazed area.
They are deployed independently of each other
depending on which side the collision occurs.
Malfunction
If this warning lamp comes on,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.

Safety

88
Manoeuvre cautiously, at low
speed
The dimensions of your vehicle differ from
those of a light vehicle, in width, in height, as
well as in length, and some obstacles will be
more difficult to notice.
Manoeuvre slowly.
Before turning, check that there are no
obstacles at mid-height along the sides.
Before reversing, check that there are no
obstacles, particularly at high level behind the
vehicle.
Be aware of the external dimensions, if ladders
are fitted.
Load the vehicle correctly
With a load, the vehicle must remain within the
m aximum authorised weight, the Gross Vehicle
Weight.
To avoid upsetting the balance of the vehicle,
the load should be centred and the heaviest
part placed on the floor in front of the rear
wheels.
It is inadvisable to place heavy loads on a
roof
rack.
Loading also implies adherence to the
maximum load of the roof bar anchor points.
Adhere to the maximum permissible weight,
according to PEUGEOT dealer specifications.
Loads must be securely lashed down.
A load that is not properly secured inside the
vehicle may affect vehicle handling and create
a
risk of accident.
Drive the vehicle in a prudent
a nd efficient way
Take corners gently.
Anticipate the need to brake as the stopping
distance is increased, particularly on wet or icy
roads.
Be aware of the effect of side winds on the
vehicle.
Effective eco-driving saves fuel; accelerate
progressively, anticipate the need to slow down
and adapt your speed to suit the situation.
Indicate changes of direction well in advance
so that you are seen by other road users.
Take care
The tyres must be inflated to at least the
pressures indicated on the label, even over-
inflated by 0.2
to 0.3 bar for long journeys.
In case of towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
d emands on the towing vehicle and
requires extra care from the driver.
Distribution of loads
F Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight approaches
the maximum permitted without exceeding
it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. The maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10% for every
1,000
metres of altitude.
For more information on the Technical
data of your vehicle and particularly on
towable loads, refer to the corresponding
section.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to wind.
If your vehicle is fitted with a
drop-side back,
the height and width of the load must remain
within the overall dimensions of the vehicle.
Driving

89
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
t emperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F
T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towable load on an incline
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a
check on the coolant
temperature.
F
I
f this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
New vehicle
Do not pull a
trailer before having driven at
least 620
miles (1,000 kilometres).
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height
of your vehicle.
For more information on Headlamp
beam height adjustment , refer to the
corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal if a
genuine PEUGEOT
towbar is used.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys contain an electronic immobiliser
device.
This device locks the engine supply system.
It activates automatically when the key is
removed from the ignition.
This warning lamp goes off after the
key has been recognised, the ignition is
switched on and the engine can be started.
If the key is not recognised, the engine
cannot be started. Use another key
and have the faulty key checked by
a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Note the number of the keys carefully;
in case of loss, inter vention by the
PEUGEOT dealer will be more efficient
and quicker if you present this number and
the confidential card.
When the ignition switch is turned on, a
dialogue is set up between the key and the
electronic immobiliser.
Do not make any modifications to the
electronic immobiliser system.
Operating the remote control, even when it
is in your pocket, may result in involuntary
unlocking of the doors.
The simultaneous use of other high
frequency equipment (mobile telephones,
domestic alarms, etc.), may inter fere
with the operation of the remote control
temporarily.
The remote control does not operate
while the key is in the ignition, even if the
ignition is off, except for reinitialisation.

Releasing
When the vehicle is being driven,
this warning lamp coming on
indicates that the parking brake is
still applied or has not been fully
released.
Manual gearbox
To change gear easily, always depress the
clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedal:
-
e
nsure that the mat is positioned
correctly,
-
n
ever fit one mat on top of another.
Avoid leaving your hand on the gear knob as
the force exerted, even if slight, may wear the
internal components of the gearbox over time.
Engaging reverse gear
Never engage reverse gear before the
vehicle is completely stationary.
If your vehicle is fitted with parking
sensors, the system comes into operation
when reverse gear is engaged; an audible
signal is heard.
For more information on Rear parking
sensors , refer to the corresponding
section.
F
P
ull the lever up slightly and press the
button to release the parking brake lever.
Gear shift indicator
Depending on the engine or model, this system
allows fuel consumption to be reduced by
suggesting when to change up.
Gear shift recommendations are only optional.
In fact, the road configuration, the traffic
density and safety remain the determining
factors when choosing the best gear.
Therefore, the driver remains responsible for
deciding whether or not to follow the system's
advice.
The system cannot be deactivated.
Operation
The information appears in the
instrument panel screen in the form
of the SHIFT indicator, accompanied
by an upward arrow to signal to the
driver that they can change up.
The system adapts its gear shift
recommendation according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the
driver's requirements (power, acceleration,
b r a k i n g , e t c .) .
The system never recommends engaging
first gear or reverse, or changing down.
F
R
aise the collar under the gear knob to
engage reverse gear.
The lever should be moved slowly to reduce the
noise on engaging reverse gear.
Driving

Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, etc.).
The engine restarts automatically – START
mode – as soon as you wish to move off.
Restart is instantaneous, quick and silent.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions and offers the comfort of complete
silence when stationary.
Going into engine STOP
mode
With the vehicle stationary, put the gear lever
into neutral, then release the clutch pedal.This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby.
Automatic stopping of the engine is only
possible after the vehicle has exceeded
a
speed of about 6 mph (10 km/h), to avoid
repeated stopping of the engine when
driving slowly. Never leave your vehicle before turning off
the ignition with the key.
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
using the key.
Special cases: STOP mode
not available
STOP mode is not triggered when:
-
t he system is initialising,
-
t
he driver's door is open,
-
t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-
t
he air conditioning is on,
-
t
he rear screen demisting is on,
-
t
he windscreen wipers are on fast wipe,
-
r
everse gear is engaged for a parking
manoeuvre,
-
s
ome special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, particle filter
regeneration, braking assistance, exterior
temperature, etc.) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a
system.-
d
uring intensive use of Stop & Start, it
may be deactivated to conser ve starting
ability; go to a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
function reactivated.
This indicator lamp in the instrument
panel flashes for a few seconds,
then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Going into engine START
mode
With the vehicle in gear, automatic engine
restarting is only allowed by fully depressing
the clutch pedal.
This indicator lamp goes off and the
engine restarts.
If the driver takes no action on the vehicle for
3
minutes after an automatic restart in START
mode, the system stops the engine definitively.
The engine can then only be restarted using
t h e key.

Before each use
Check that the towball is correctly locked by
verifying the following points:
- the green mark on the locking wheel is in line with the green mark on the towball,
- the locking wheel is in contact with the towball,- the security lock is locked and the key removed; the locking wheel can no longer be
operated,
- the towball must not be able to move in its carrier; test by trying to shake it with your hand.
During use
Never release the locking system with
a trailer or load carrier on the towball.
Never exceed the maximum authorised
weight for the vehicle (the Gross Vehicle
Weight – GV W), the trailer, or the sum of
the two (the Gross Train Weight – GTW).
Following use
When travelling without a trailer or load on
a towbar-mounted carrier, the towball must be
removed and the protective plug inserted in
the carrier. This measure applies particularly
where the towball might obscure visibility of the
number plate or its lighting.

allows you to continue listening to the
same station, by automatically switching to
the corresponding "FM" analogue station
(if there is one).
When the system switches to analogue
radio, there is a
difference of a few
seconds with sometimes a
change in
volume.
When the digital signal is restored, the
system automatically changes back to
" DA B ".
If the "DAB" station being listened to is
not available, the sound will cut out while
the digital signal is too weak and the
alternative "AF" frequency will be greyed
out.
