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
manoevrability 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.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
In an emergency, this system enables
the optimum braking pressure to be
reached more quickly, thus reducing
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.
In the event of emergency braking,
depending on the force of the
deceleration, the hazard warning
lights are switched on automatically.
They are switched off automatically
on acceleration.
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,
accompanied by a buzzer
and a message, it indicates that there
is a malfunction of the electronic
brake force distribution, which can
cause a loss of control of the vehicle
when braking.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a Peugeot
dealer.
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.

Operating checkTRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP)
These systems are linked and
complement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive
to prevent the wheels skidding, by
acting 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.
The warning light lashes if
the ASR or ESP is activated. The switch lights up and
the warning light comes on,
accompanied by a message
on the multifunction display:
the ASR and ESP systems are
disarmed.
Operation of the ASR and ESP
systems Disarming the ASR/ESP systems
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,
located under the steering wheel
to the right.
These are triggered again:
F automatically if the ignition is
switched off,
F manually by pressing the switch
again. When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the switch
light lashes and the warning
light comes on.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the systems checked.
The ASR/ESP 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
recommendations regarding
wheels (tyres and rims), the
braking components, the
electronic components and
the PEUGEOT assembly and
operation procedures.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

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 air bag is
disarmed.
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.
In the event of a serious collision,
the electronic detectors record and
analyse any abrupt deceleration of
the vehicle: if the triggering threshold
is reached, the air bags inlate
instantly and protect the occupants
of the vehicle.
Immediately after the impact, the
air bags delate rapidly, so that they
do not hinder the visibility of the
occupants nor their possible exit
from the vehicle.
The air bags will not be deployed in
collisions which are not serious, for
which the seat belt is suficient to
provide maximum protection. The
seriousness of the collision depends
on the nature of the obstacle and the
speed of the vehicle at the moment
of impact.
Air bags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
Note:
the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant. If this warning light comes
on, accompanied by a
buzzer and a message on
the multifunction display,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
Front air bag malfunction Disarming the passenger air
bag*
To ensure the safety of your child, it
is essential to disarm the passenger
air bag when you install a rear-facing
child seat on the front passenger
seat. Otherwise, the child would risk
being killed or seriously injured 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
remove the key keeping the slot
in this position.
The air bag warning light
on the instrument panel is
lit throughout the period of
disarming.
