For the front, side* and curtain* air bags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:
• Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.• Sit in a normal upright position.• Do not leave anything between the occupants and the air bags (child, animal, object...). This could hamper the operation of the air bags or injure the occu-pants.• All work on the air bag systems is strictly prohibited unless it is car-ried out by qualified personnel of the PEUGEOT network.• After an accident or if the vehi-cle has been stolen or broken into, have the air bag systems checked.
Front air bags
• 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 fascia.• Smoke as little as possible; deploy-ment of the air bags can cause burns or the risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe.• Never remove or pierce the steer-ing wheel or hit it violently.
Curtain air bags*
• Do not fix or glue anything to the pillars or the roof. This could cause injury to the head when the curtain air bag inflates.• Do not remove the bolts from the grab handles installed on the roof, they play a part in securing the curtain air bags.
* According to country.
Side air bags*
• Only put approved covers on the front seats. Contact your PEUGEOT dealer.• Do not fix or glue anything to the front seat backs. This could cause injury to the chest or arms when the side air bag inflates.• Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.

133Safety-
In the "OFF" position, the passen-ger air bag will not be triggered in the event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed, turn the air bag slot to the "ON" po-sition to re-activate the air bag and thus ensure the safety of your pas-senger in the event of an impact.
Side air bags* andcurtain air bags*
The side air bags are incorporated into the front seat backs on the door side.
The curtain air bags are incorporated into the door pillars and the upper part of the passenger compartment.
They are deployed independently of each other depending on which side the collision occurs.

SEAT BELTS
Seat belt height adjustment:
- to lower: pull the control towards you and slide it downwards,- to raise: slide the control upwards.
To lock the seat belts
 Pull the strap, then insert the ton-gue into the buckle.
Check that the seat belt is faste-ned correctly by pulling the strap.
Front seat belts withpre-tensioner and force limiter
Safety in the event of front impacts has been improved by the introduc-tion of seat belts with pre-tensioner and force limiter for the front seats. Depending on the seriousness of the impact, the pre-tensioning system instantly tightens the seat belts and pulls them against the bodies of the occupants.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are active when the ignition is on.
The force limiter eases the pressure of the seat belt on the body of the oc-cupant in the event of an accident.
Rear seat belts
The rear seats are fitted with:
- three three-point inertia reel seat belts (saloon and 206 SW)- two three-point inertia reel seat belts (206 GTi 180).
Driver’s seat belt not fastened/unfastened warning light
The warning light comes on each time the ignition is switched on.
It remains on until the driver fastens his seat belt.
Above 12 mph (20 km/h), the warning light flashes for two minutes accompa-nied by an increasingly audible signal and a message on the multifunction display. Once these two minutes have elapsed, the warning light remains lit until the driver’s seat belt is fastened.

Safety136 -
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle, always fas-ten your seat belt, even for short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they will not fulfil their role fully.
If the seats have armrests*, the lap part of the seat belt must always pass under the armrest.
The seat belts are fitted with an in-ertia reel permitting automatic ad-justment of the length of the strap to your size. The seat belt is stored automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the seat belt is rolled up correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be positioned as low as possible on the pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fitted with an automatic locking device which comes into operation in the event of a collision or emergency braking. You can release the device by pull-ing rapidly on the strap and releas-ing it.
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 be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking that it does not twist,- must not be transformed or modi-fied to avoid altering its perform-ance.
In accordance with current safety regulations, all repairs and checks must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer who guarantees that the work is carried out correctly.
Have your seat belts checked regu-larly by a PEUGEOT dealer and 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 pas-senger is less than 12 years old or shorter than one metre fifty,- do not use the strap-guide* when a child seat is installed.- never use the same seat belt to secure more than one person,- never allow a child to travel on your lap.
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.

CHECKING THE LEVELS
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top up between changes. The maxi-mum consumption is 0.5 l per 600 miles (1 000 km).
Check the level with the vehicle level, engine cold, using the oil level gauge on the instrument panel or the dip-stick.
There are two marks on the dipstick:
A = maximum
Never fill past this mark.
B = minimum
To maintain the reliability of engines and emission control systems, the use of additives in engine oil is prohibited.
Oil change
According to the information given in the servicing booklet.
Note: avoid used oil coming into pro-longed contact with the skin. Empty the used oil into the containers intend-ed for this purpose in the PEUGEOT network.
Brake fluid level:
The brake fluid must be changed according to the manufacturer’s servicing schedule.
Use fluids recommended by the manufacturer, which fulfil DOT4 standards.
Note: brake fluid is harmful to health and very corrosive. Avoid all contact with the skin.
Used oil
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fluid or coolant into drains or onto the ground.
Dipstick
* According to country.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet the manufacturer’s requirements.
Cooling system
Use the fluid recommended by the manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-perature of the coolant is controlled by the engine fan. As this fan can op-erate with the ignition key removed and because the cooling system is pressurised, wait for at least one hour after the engine has stopped before carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by two turns to re-lease the pressure to prevent any risk of scalding. When the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and top up the level.
Note: the coolant does not need to be changed.
For vehicles equipped with a particle filter, the engine fan may operate after the ignition has been switched off, even when the en-gine is cold.
Power steering reservoir
Open the reservoir, with the en-gine at ambient temperature. The level should always be above the MIN. mark and close to the MAX. mark.
Windscreen and headlamp* wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your safety, we would advise that you use products recommended by PEUGEOT.
Diesel additive level (Diesel)
If a message on the multifunction display indicates a low diesel addi-tive level accompanied by an audible signal, this additive must be topped up. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.

CHECKS
Battery
At the start of winter, have your bat-tery checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Handbrake
Where the handbrake travel is too great or there is a reduction in the performance of the system, the handbrake should be adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Only use products recom-mended by PEUGEOT or products of equivalent quality and specifications.
To ensure best performance from components as important as the power steering and the braking system, PEUGEOT selects and offers quite specific products.
To prevent damage to the electrical units, avoid washing the engine.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
(DIESEL)
If you should run out of fuel, it is necessary to re-prime the circuit:
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Have the filter elements replaced regu-larly. If you drive in dusty conditions,change them twice as often.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style of driving, in particular for vehicles which are used in town, over short distances.
It may be necessary to check the thickness of the pads, even between services.
Disc wear status
For any information relating to checking the disc wear status, contacta PEUGEOT dealer.
Oil filter
Change the filter regularly, in accordance with the servicing schedule.
1.4 litre HDI engine
- fill the fuel tank with at least five litres of diesel,- squeeze and release the manual re-priming pump, until fuel appears in the transparent pipe under the bonnet,- operate the starter until the engine starts.
1.6 litre HDI 16V engine
- fill the fuel tank with at least five litres of diesel,- unclip the style cover to gain access to the re-priming pump,- squeeze and release the manual re-priming pump, until fuel appears in the transparent pipe with the green connector,- operate the starter until the engine starts.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The maintenance of the particle filter must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer in accordance with the manu-facturer’s servicing schedule.
Note: following prolonged operation of the vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circum-stances, notice discharges of water vapour at the exhaust on accelera-tion. This does not have any adverse effect on the behaviour of the vehicle or on the environment.
Manual gearbox
This does not require an oil change. Check the level in accordance with the manufacturer’s servicing schedule.
To check the main levels and cer-tain components, in accordance with the manufacturer’s servicing schedule, refer to the pages of the servicing booklet which corre-spond to your vehicle’s engine.
