Ease of use and comfort
Folding from the boot
When loading, for example, or from the third row
seats:
►
Pull strap
C to unlock the desired seat and
give the backrest a slight push forwards.
Repositioning the seat
► Place the continuity panels of the 2nd row
seats back up against the backrests.
► Straighten the backrest until it locks.
Before performing any operations on the
rear seats, to avoid damage to the seat
belts, check that the outer seat belts are
properly tensioned. The central seat belt must
be stored in the headlining.
Continuity panels
Each seat has a continuity panel at the bottom of
the backrest, which, once unfolded:
–
allows for a continuous loading surface in the
boot, whatever the position of the seats,
–
prevents objects from sliding beneath the 2nd
row seats.
The continuity panels are held against the
backrests with a magnetic fixing element.
These continuity panels are not designed to support a weight greater than 30
kg.
Before unfolding the continuity panels,
check that the 2nd row seats are pulled as
far back as possible.
Accessing third row seats
The third row seats are accessed via the second
row side seats.
From the outside or from the third row seats:
► Check that the "aircraft" type tables of the
front seats are properly folded up.
►
Pull paddle D
and guide the backrest
forwards to tilt it and move the seat forwards.
To put the seat back in place:
►
Straighten the backrest until the seat locks.
Whatever the initial position of the seat, it is
placed automatically a third of the way along
the longitudinal adjustment range in order to
preserve enough space for passengers in the
third row seats. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

► Once the rear part of the seat has been
raised, take hold of each side of the seat
cushion, at the plastic covers, then bring the seat
towards you, keeping it at the same angle.
Repositioning the seats
These operations must be performed from the
boot sill.
As long as the seat is not in the correct position, it must be held with both hands
by the sides, keeping it folded.
►
Check in advance that the seat storage well
is empty and that the removable support is
properly secured against the front wall.
► While holding it by the sides at the plastic
covers, tilt the seat forwards.
►
Simultaneously place both hooks located at
the front of the seat onto the coloured securing
lugs on the right and left
at the bottom of the seat
well.
Check that the front hooks of the seat are
positioned correctly on the two lugs.
If they are not, you must remove the seat and
start the procedure again.
► Release the rear part of the seat which will
lock in place under its own weight.
The yellow lever G
folds back automatically.
If the seat is not perfectly horizontal, do
not press on the backrest and do not try
to unfold it - risk of damaging the mechanism!
Take out the seat and start the operation
again.

Safety
5Operation
The system is activated automatically when the
ignition is switched on.
The electronic stability control system (ESC)
must not have any faults.
The vehicle speed must be between 37 and 99
mph (60 and 160 km/h).
If the system detects that the trailer is
snaking, it applies the brakes to stabilise
the trailer and reduces engine power, if
necessary, to slow the vehicle (indicated by the
flashing of this warning lamp on the instrument
panel and the brake lamps coming on).
For information on weights and towed loads,
refer to the Engine technical data and towed
loads section or your vehicle’s registration
certificate.
To ensure safe driving with a Towing device,
refer to the corresponding section.
Malfunction
If a fault occurs, this warning lamp lights
up on the instrument panel, accompanied
by a message and an audible signal.
To continue towing a trailer, reduce speed and
drive carefully!
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The trailer stability control system provides an extra safety feature under
normal driving conditions, when following the
recommendations for use of trailers and
current legislation in force in your country. It
must not encourage the driver to take extra
risks, such as using a trailer in unsuitable
conditions of operation (e.g.
excessive load,
exceeded nose weight, worn or under-inflated
tyres, faulty braking system) or driving at
excessive speed.
In certain cases, the system may not detect
trailer snaking, particularly with a light trailer.
When driving on slippery or poor surfaces, the
system may not be able to prevent sudden
trailer snaking.
Advanced Grip Control
This special patented traction control system improves grip on snow, mud and sand.
For optimum grip on snow, it is
recommended that you fit the vehicle
with winter tyres.
For optimum system performance, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer to choose the most suitable
tyres.
Recommendations
The vehicle is designed principally
to drive on tarmac roads, but it may
occassionally drive on other less passable
terrain.
However, it does not permit off-road driving:
–
Driving on terrain that can damage the
underbody or tear off elements (e.g.
fuel
pipe, fuel cooler) by obstacles or stones in
particular.
–
Driving on terrain with steep gradients and
poor grip.
–
Crossing a waterway
.
Operating modes
Snow
This mode constantly adapts the level of wheel
spin to offer maximum traction according to the
snow conditions (a lot of wheel spin in thick
snow; very little on ice). The wheel spin is also
adapted to the conditions encountered when
driving uphill by optimising the acceleration of
the vehicle.
(mode active up to 50 mph (80
km/h))
Mud
This mode, when moving off, allows considerable
spin on the wheel with the least grip to optimise
clearing of the mud and to regain grip. At the
same time, the wheel with the most grip is
controlled in such a way as to transmit as much
traction torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises wheel spin
to respond to the driver's requirements as fully
as possible.
(mode active up to 31 mph (50
km/h))
Sand
This mode allows little spin on the two driving
wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to CarM an uals 2 .c o m

5Advice
For the airbags to be fully effective,
observe the safety recommendations
below.
Adopt a normal and upright sitting position.
Fasten your seat belt and position it correctly.
Do not place anything between the occupants
and the airbags (e.g.
child, animal, object), do
not fix or attach anything near or in the path of
the airbags, as this could cause injuries when
they are deployed.
Never modify the original definition of the
vehicle, particularly in the area directly around
the airbags.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are
observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns to
the head, chest or arms cannot be ruled out
when an airbag is deployed. The bag inflates
almost instantly (within a few milliseconds)
then deflates within the same time,
discharging the hot gas via openings provided
for this purpose.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen, have the airbag systems checked.
All work must be carried out only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
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 fix or attach anything to the steering
wheel or dashboard, as this could cause
injuries when the airbags are deployed.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved seat covers
compatible with the deployment of these
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backrests (e.g.
clothing) as this could cause
injuries to the chest or arm when the airbag is
deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.
The vehicle's front door panels include side
impact sensors.
A damaged door or any unauthorised or
incorrectly executed work (modification or
repair) on the front doors or their interior trim
could compromise the operation of these
sensors - risk of malfunction of the lateral
airbags!
All work must be carried out only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof,
as this could cause head injuries when the
curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the grab handles installed on
the roof, as these help to secure the curtain
airbags.
Child seats
The legislation on carrying children is specific to each country. Refer to the
legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please observe the
following recommendations:
–
In accordance with European regulations, all
children under the age of 12 or less than one
and a half metres tall must travel in approved
child seats suited to their weight , on seats
fitted with a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings.
–
Statistically
, the safest seats in your
vehicle for carrying children are the rear
seats.
–
A
child weighing less than 9 kg must travel
in the "rearward facing" position both in the
front and in the rear.
It is recommended that children travel
on the rear seats of the vehicle:
–
"rearward facing" up to the age of 3,
–
"forward facing" over the age of 3. CarM an uals 2 .c o m
