ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS) AND THE
ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE
DISTRIBUTION (EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the
electronic brake force distribution,
increases the stability and manoeu-
vrability of your vehicle on braking,
in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
Note:
when changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that these are
approved.
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock.
When this warning light
comes on, accompanied by
a buzzer and a message,
it indicates that there is a
malfunction of the ABS,
which can cause a loss of control of
the vehicle when braking.
When this warning light
comes on, connected to
the STOP warning light, ac-
companied by a buzzer and
a message, it indicates that
there is a malfunction of the electron-
ic brake force distribution, which can
cause a loss of control of the vehicle
when braking. Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
In an emergency, this system ena-
bles the optimum braking pressure
to be reached more quickly, thus re-
ducing the stopping distance.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is activated. The effect of
this is a reduction in the resistance of
the pedal and an increase in braking
eficiency.
Normal operation of the
ABS may make itself felt
by slight vibrations of the
brake pedal.
In emergency braking,
press very irmly without
releasing the pressure.

The switch lights up and
the warning light comes on:
the ASR and ESP systems
are disarmed.
TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP)
These systems are linked and com-
plement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to
prevent the wheels skidding, by act-
ing on the brakes of the drive wheels
and on the engine. It also allows the
directional stability of the vehicle to
be improved on acceleration.
If there is a variation between the
trajectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESP
system automatically acts on the
engine and the brake of one or more
wheels, in order to put the vehicle
back on course.
Operation of the ASR and ESP
systems
The warning light lashes
if the ASR or ESP is acti-
vated. Disarming
In exceptional conditions (starting a
vehicle which is bogged down, stuck
in snow, on soft ground, ...), it may
be advisable to disarm the ASR and
ESP systems, so that the wheels can
move freely and regain grip.
F
Press the "ESP OFF" switch, lo-
cated on the central section of the
fascia.
Reactivation
F Automatic if the ignition is
switched off,
F Automatic above 30 mph (50 km/h),
F Manual by pressing the switch
again. Operating check
When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the warning
light comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message on the multifunction
display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the systems checked.
The ESP/ASR systems offer
exceptional safety in normal
driving, but this should not
encourage the driver to take
extra risks or drive at high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation of
the manufacturer's recommenda-
tions regarding the wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and the
PEUGEOT assembly and operation
procedures.
After an impact, have the systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

SEAT BELTS
Fastening the seat belts
With the door closed, slide your arm
along the door and take hold of the
seat belt at the base. Then, insert the
buckle into the stalk. Seat belt not fastened warning*
If the driver and/or the
front passenger has
not fastened his seat
belt, the corresponding
warning light comes on
when the ignition is on, then, at a speed
above 12 mph (20 km/h), this is accom-
panied by an audible signal the volume
of which increases (for approximately
two minutes) and a message on the
multifunction display.
Note: a bag or an animal placed on
the front passenger seat may trigger
lighting of the warning light.
Pre-tensioning and force-limiting
front seat belts
Safety in the event of a frontal impact
has been improved by the introduc-
tion of pre-tensioning and force-lim-
iting front seat belts. Depending on
the seriousness of the impact, the
pre-tensioning system instantly tight-
ens the seat belts irmly against the
body of the occupant. * According to country.
Additional seat belt warnings*

passenger's seat belt is not fas-
tened or has been unfastened.
3 - Front passenger's seat belt not
fastened warning.
4 - Rear right passenger's seat belt
unfastened warning.
5 - Rear left passenger's seat belt
unfastened warning. Seat belt unfastened warning*
If the driver and/or one
of the passengers has
unfastened his seat
belt, the corresponding
warning light comes on
when the engine is running, then, at
a speed above 12 mph (20 km/h),
this is accompanied by an audible
signal the volume of which increases
(for approximately two minutes) and
a message on the multifunction dis-
play.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are
armed when the ignition is on.
The force-limiting device reduces the
pressure of the seat belt against the
occupant's body in the event of an
accident.

Rear seat belts
The rear seats are itted with two
three-point inertia reel seat belts.
The retaining of the rear seat belt
buckle by the sliding block makes
folding down or complete folding of
the seats easier. Wherever you are seated
in the vehicle, always fas-
ten your seat belt, even for
short journeys.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and rolled up correctly.
Recommendations for child seats:
- use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one metre ifty,
- do not use the strap-guide* when a child seat is installed.
Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impacts , the pre-
tensioning device may be triggered
before and independently of the air
bags.
In all cases, the air bag warning light
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if nec-
essary replaced, by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
* According to model.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as
they will not fulil their role fully.
If the seats have armrests*, the lap
part of the seat belt must always
pass under the armrest.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is rolled up correctly.
In order to be effective, a seat belt:
- must be tightened as close to the
body as possible,
- must restrain one adult only,
- must not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- must not be twisted,
- must not be transformed or modiied.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by PEUGEOT dealers.

AIR BAGS
The air bags have
been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
in the event of serious collisions. They
work in conjunction with the force-
limiting seat belts. The electronic
detectors register and analyse any
abrupt deceleration of the vehicle: if
the triggering threshold is reached,
the air bags inlate instantly and pro-
tect the occupants of the vehicle.
Immediately after the impact, the air
bags delate rapidly so that they do
not hinder the visibility of the occu-
pants nor their exit if necessary from
the vehicle.
The air bags are not deployed in the
case of collisions which are not seri-
ous, for which the seat belt is sufi-
cient to ensure maximum protection.
The seriousness of a collision de-
pends on the nature of the obstacle
and the speed of the vehicle at the
moment of the collision.
Air bags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
Note: the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant.
FRONT AIR BAGS
These are folded in the centre of the
steering wheel for the driver and in
the fascia for the front passenger.
They are deployed simultaneously,
except in cases where the passenger
air bag is disarmed.
Front air bag fault
If this warning light comes
on, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
on the multifunction dis-
play, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer to have the system
checked.
Disarming the passenger air
bag*
To ensure the safety of your child,
it is essential to disarm the pas-
senger air bag when you install
a "rear-facing" child seat on the
front passenger seat. Otherwise,
the child would risk being seri-
ously injured or killed if the air bag
were to inlate.
F With the ignition switched off ,
insert the key into the passenger
air bag disarming switch 1, turn
it to the "OFF" position, then re-
move the key keeping the slot in
this position.
* According to country.

sition to re-activate the air bag and
thus ensure the safety of your pas-
senger in the event of an impact.
With the ignition on (2nd
notch), illumination of this
warning light accompanied
by a message on the multi-
function display, indicates
that the passenger air bag is dis-
armed (switch in the "OFF" position).
The warning light on the instrument
panel remains on until the passenger
air bag is reactivated.
In the event of permanent
lighting of the two air bag
warning lights, do not in-
stall a rear-facing child
seat. Contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Steering column air bag*
The steering column air bag is incor-
porated in the fascia below the steer-
ing column.
It protects the driver's lower limbs.
It is deployed at the same time as the
front air bags.
SIDE AIR BAGS AND
CURTAIN AIR BAGS*
The side air bags are incorporated
into the front seat backs on the door
side.
The curtain air bags are incorporated
in the headlining.
They are deployed independently of
each other depending on which side
the collision occurs.
This indicator light comes
on, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
on the multi-function dis-
play to indicate the mal-
function of at least one of these air
bags.
