The gearbox is an electronically controlledmanual gearbox without a clutch pedal.
To hold the vehicle on a slope, it is necessary
to use the brake pedal or the parkin
g brake and not the accelerator pedal.
When moving off on a slope, accelerateprogressively while releasing the parking brake.

Always press the brake pedal while starting the engine.
Never select neutral N
while the vehicle is moving.In all cases, it is essential to apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle.

On a slope, use the brake to immobilisethe vehicle and place the gear lever in position N , E
or R.
Do not keep the vehicle immobilisedusing the accelerator.

If you press the accelerator pedal beyond the point of resistance, the2 Tronic gearbox gearbox changes
down for sharper acceleration.
Te m p o r a r i ly taking control of gear changes
You can temporarily take control of gear changes using the "+"and "-"
steering
mounted controls; if the engine speed allows,
the
gear change command is acted on.

Emergency braking
assistance


In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure morequickly and therefore reduce the stoppingdistance.
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a reduction in
the resistance of the pedal and an increase in
the effectiveness of the braking.
*
The CSC system is linked with the EBFD on
vehicles which are not fitted with ASR/ESP
systems.















Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
braking systems (EBFD and CSC * )
The ABS, in conjunction with the EBFD and
CSC *
braking systems, increases the stability and manoeuvrability of your vehicle on brakingand provides improved control, in particular on poor or slippery road surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The EBFD and CSC * systems provide fullcontrol of the braking pressure wheel by wheel.A distribution between:
- the front and the rear in the case of the
EBFD (Electronic Brake Force Distribution),
- the left and the right in the case of theCSC * (Cornering Stability Control).


When changing wheels (tyres), make
sure that these are approved.

The anti-lock braking system comesinto operation automatically when thereis a risk of wheel lock.
When this warning lamp comes on,
it indicates that there is a fault with
the ABS, which could cause a loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

When these warning lampscome on simultaneously, it
indicates that there is a fault
with the braking system or that the parking
brake has not been released fully, which cancause a loss of control of the vehicle when
braking. You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake pedal.
In emergency braking, pressvery firmly without releasing thepressure.

Operation of the ASR and
ESP systems

When one of these two systems
is operating, this warning lamp
comes on.
If a fault occurs with the s
ystems, this
warning lamp comes on.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop to have thesystems checked.
These systems are linked and supplement
the AB
S.
The ASR system optimises drive to prevent the
wheels skidding, by acting on the brakes of
the driving wheelsand 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 brake of one or more wheels and on theengine to put the vehicle back on course, within
the limits of the laws of physics.
The ASR/ESP systems offer exceptional safety during normal driving, but this should not encourage the driver to take extra risks or drive athigh speed. Correct operation of these systemsdepends on obser vation of thema-nufacturer's recommendations regar-ding the wheels (tyres andrims), the braking components and the electronic components as well as therepair procedures use by a PEUGEOT dealer or qualified workshop.
After an impact, have these systemschecked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

53 Safety

* According to model.
The driver must ensure that thepassengers use the seat belts correctly and that they are all properly restrainedbefore setting off. Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,always fasten your seat belt, even for shor t journeys. Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they will not fulfil their role fully. If the seats have armrests * , the lap par tof the seat belt must always pass under the armrest.The seat belts are fitted with an inertiareel permitting automatic adjustment of the length of the strap to your size. The seat belt is stored automatically whennot in use. Before and after use, ensure that theseat belt is reeled in correctly.The lower part of the strap must be positioned as low as possible on the pelvis. The upper par t must be positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fitted with an automaticlocking device which comes into operation in the event of a collision, on emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls over. You can release the device by pulling rapidly on the strap and releasing it.

In order to be effective, a seat belt: - must be tightened as close to the body aspossible, - must restrain one adult only, - must not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,- must be pulled in front of you with asmooth movement, checking that it doesnot twist, - must not be transformed or modified to avoid altering its performance.In accordance with current safety regulations, all repairs and checks must be carried out bya PEUGEOT dealer who can guarantee thatthe work is carried out correctly, or qualifiedworkshop. Have your seat belts checked regularly by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshopand par ticularly if the straps show signs of damage.Clean the seat belt straps with soapy water or a textile cleaning product, sold by PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned and rolled up correctly.


Recommendations for children:



- use a suitable child seat if the passenger is less than 12 years old or shor ter thanone metre fifty,

- do not use the strap-guide *
when a child seat is installed,

- never use the same seat belt to securemore than one person,

- never allow a child to travel on your lap.Depending on the nature and seriousness of the impacts
, the pre-tensioning device may be triggered before and independently of the air bags. Triggering of the pre-tensioners is accompanied by a slight emission of harmless smoke and a noise, due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes on. Following an impact, have the seat beltssystem checked, and if necessary replaced, by a PEUGEOT dea-ler or a qualified workshop.

55 Safety
To ensure the safety of your child, it is essential to deactivate the passenger'sairbag when you install a "rear-facing"child seat on the front passenger seat.
Other wise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the air bag wereto inflate.)With the ignition switched off, inser t thefkey into the passenger airbag deactivation switch 1, turn it to the "OFF"position, then remove the key keeping the switch in this position.
In the "OFF"position, the passenger airbag willnot be deployed in the event of an impact.
As soon as the "rear-facing"
child seat is
removed, turn the airbag switch to the "ON"position to re-activate the airbag and thus ensure the safety of your passenger in the
event of an impact. If the passen
ger airbag is
deactivated, the warning lamp in the
instrument panel remains on until the
passen
ger airbag is reactivated.

According to version.












Lateral airbags * and
curtain airbags *

The lateral airbags are built into the front seatbacks on the door side.
The deployment of these airbags requires a
serious side impact applied in the side impact
zone B , perpendicular to the longitudinalcentreline of the vehicle, on a horizontal plane and from the outside of the vehicle towards the inside. The lateral airbag inflates between the front occupant of the vehicle and the door trimpanel. It therefore limits the risk of injury to the chest.
The cur tain airba
gs are built into the headlining.
The cur tain airba
g inflates between the front or rear occupant and the windows. It therefore
limits the risk of head injuries. In the event of a
minor impact or bump on the side of the vehicle
or if the vehicle rolls over, the airbag may notbe deployed. The airbag is not deployed in the event of a front or rear collision.
