no longer be deployed in the event
of a serious impact.
In this case, do not install a child
seat nor allow a passenger to sit in
the front passenger seat.
Lateral airbags
This system protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a severe side impact
to minimise the risk of injury to the chest,
between hip and shoulder.
Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest
frame, door side.
Deployment
A lateral airbag is deployed unilaterally in the
event of a severe side impact applied to all or
part of side impact zone B, perpendicular to
the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The lateral airbag inflates between the hip
and shoulder of the front occupant and the
corresponding door trim panel.
Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
Curtain airbagsThis system protects the driver and passengers
in the event of a severe lateral impact in order
to limit the risk of injury to the head.
Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and
the upper passenger compartment area.
Deployment
Each curtain airbag is deployed at the same
time as the corresponding lateral airbag in the
event of a serious side impact applied to all or
part of the side impact zone B , perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The curtain airbag inflates between the front or
rear occupant of the vehicle and the windows.
Malfunction
If this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop to have

This system still requires you to check the
tyre inflation pressure every month as well
as before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
handling, extends braking distances and
causes premature 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, add 0.3
bar to the values
indicated on the label.Under-inflation alert

n case of a puncture, use the temporary
puncture repair kit. The alert persists until the reference
pressure values are reinitialised once the
tyre or tyres concerned are reinflated,
repaired or replaced. In case of tyre repair
or replacement, the sensor identifiers
must be logged by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Resetting the reference
pressures
The system must be reinitialised after any
adjustment to the pressures of one or more
tyres, and after changing one or more wheels.
Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures of the four tyres are
correct for the use of the vehicle and in
line with the recommendations on the tyre
pressure label.
The under-inflation detection system
does not give a warning if a pressure is
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.

The flashing of the warning lamp in the
instrument panel confirms that the system has
been reinitialised.
The warning lamp will then go off after driving
for about a hundred metres.
The under-inflation alert can only be relied
on if the reinitialisation of the system has
been done with the pressures in the four
tyres correctly adjusted.
Malfunction
The flashing and then fixed
illumination of the under-inflation
warning lamp indicates a fault with
the system.
In this case, the pressure in the tyres is no
longer monitored.
This alert is also displayed if:

Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop
to have the system checked or,
following a puncture, to have the original
wheel, equipped with a sensor, refitted
with a tyre. Any tyre repair or replacement on a wheel
fitted with this system must be carried
out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If you fit the second set of tyres stored
in the system, the malfunction alert will
appear until this second set is selected in
the configuration menu.
Managing sets of tyres
If you have registered a second set of tyres with
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop,
every time the set of tyres is changed (e.g.
"winter" tyre), select the set you have just
installed in the configuration menu.
Once the new set has been fitted, check
and adjust the pressure to the value stated
on the tyre pressure label.
For more information on the
Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding section.
The other set of tyres is selected via the
instrument panel display screen, with the
ignition on and the vehicle stationary.

Practical information

78
As a safety measure, the motor will
not start when the charging cable is
connected to the vehicle's socket.
In addition, any attempt to start during
the charging process will interrupt the
procedure. It will then be necessary to
disconnect and reconnect the charging
plug to continue charging.
If the ancillaries battery is discharged,
charging of the main battery is no longer
possible.
During charging, never do any work under
the bonnet of the vehicle, even with the
ignition off, because the fan could start
operating at any time (risk of physical
injury).
Wait at least one hour after the end of the
charging procedure before doing any work
under the bonnet, because certain areas
could be extremely hot (risk of burns).
After recharging, ensure that the socket
cover and access flap are closed.
Take care to avoid allowing water or
dust to enter the socket, under its cover
or in the charging plug (risk of fire or
electrocution).After removing the charging plug from
the vehicle's socket, do not leave the
cable connected to the wall-mounted
power point (risk of short-circuit or of
electrocution in the event of contact with
or immersion in water).
In the event of an accident or impact on
the vehicle chassis (contact with a raised
kerb, a bollard, an urban roadside fixture,
etc.), the electrical circuit or the main
battery could be damaged. Have your
vehicle checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Never touch the 300
V components or any
orange cables.
In the case of serious damage to the main
battery, never touch any fluids leaking
from this component.
In the event of skin contact, wash
abundantly with water and contact a
doctor as soon as possible. To optimise the ser vice life of the main
battery, recharge it completely every
two weeks.
For a complete charge, follow the normal
charging procedure (domestic electricity
supply) without interruption until it stops
automatically (confirmed by the charging
warning lamp going off in the instrument
panel).
In addition, ever y 3
months, make sure
that you charge the main batter y fully
star ting from a charge level less than
or equal to 2
bars.
Immobilising the vehicle for a long
period
When your vehicle is to be immobilised
for an indeterminate period, carry out
a complete charge of the main battery
every three months (following the normal
charging procedure).
Before carrying out the charging
operation, ensure that the ancillaries
battery is not disconnected or discharged.
For more information on the Ancillaries
battery , refer to the corresponding
section.
