When the engine is running or the vehi-
cle is moving, the lighting of one of the
following warning lights indicates the oc-
currence of a fault which requires action
on the part of the driver. Centralised alert.
Lighting of the centralised alert
is associated with the lighting
of another warning light:
- punctured wheel,
- braking,
- engine oil pressure,
- coolant temperature.
It is imperative that the vehicle is
stopped as soon as it is safe to do so. Service.
Lighting of the service warning
light indicates the occurrence of
a problem in one of the systems
which does not have a specii c
warning light.
To identify the problem, consult the
message on the multifunction display.
After checking:
- the remote control battery,
- the engine oil level,
- the screenwash level,
for other cases, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Punctured tyre.
The lighting of this warning light
indicates that one or more tyres
are punctured. It is imperative
that the vehicle is stopped as soon as it
is safe to do so.
Change the damaged wheel and have it
repaired by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS).
The lighting of this warning light
indicates the occurrence of a
fault in the anti-lock braking
system.
However, this does not prevent the op-
eration of the vehicle's assisted braking.
Any fault resulting in the lighting of
a warning light must be the subject
of further diagnostics by reading
the associated message on the
multifunction display.
If a problem arises, do not hesitate
to contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

mirror.

 With the ignition on, raise the con-
cealing l ap; the mirror is lit automat-
ically.
This sun visor is also equipped with a
ticket holder.
TOLL CARD / CAR PARK
TICKET WINDOWS
Facility for afi xing toll cards and/or car
park tickets.
These windows are located on each
side of the base of the interior mirror.
They are two non-rel ective areas of the
athermic windscreen.
The athermic windscreen limits
heating of the passenger compart-
ment by reducing the effects of the
sun's rays (ultra-violet). It consists
of a rel ective layer, which also
blocks certain radio-electric signals
(toll card payments, ...).

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
System which automatically checks the
pressure of the tyres while driving. All repairs and changing of tyres
on a wheel i tted with this system
must be carried out by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
If, when changing a tyre, you ins-
tall a wheel which is not detected
by your vehicle (example: i tting
of snow tyres), you must have the
system reinitialised by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
This system does not eliminate
the need to have the tyre pres-
sure checked regularly (refer to the
"Identii cation features" paragraph)
to ensure that the optimum dynamic
performance of the vehicle is main-
tained and prevent premature wear
of the tyres, particularly in arduous
driving conditions (heavy load, high
speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Re-
member to check the pressure of
the spare wheel.
The tyre under-inl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to radioelectric
emissions on a frequency close to
that used by the system.
Sensors i tted in each valve trigger a
warning in the event of malfunction
(speed above 12 mph (20 km/h).
A message appears on the multifunc-
tion display, accompanied by an audible
signal, to locate the wheel concerned.

 Check the tyre pressures as soon
as possible.
This check must be carried out when
the tyres are cold.
Flat tyre
This warning light and the
STOP
warning light come on on the ins-
trument panel, accompanied by
an audible signal and a mes-
sage on the multifunction display
locating the wheel concerned.

 Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-
den movement of the steering wheel
and the brakes.

 Change the damaged wheel (punc-
tured or very del ated tyre), and
have the tyre pressure checked as
soon as possible.
Puncture
The tyre under-inl ation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for the driver to
be vigilant or to drive responsibly. Sensor(s) not detected or
faulty
A message appears on the multifunc-
tion display, accompanied by an audi-
ble signal, to locate the wheel or wheels
which are not detected or to indicate a
fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace
the faulty sensor(s).
This message is also displayed
when one of the wheels is away
from the vehicle (being repaired) or
when one or more wheels without a
sensor are i tted.
The spare wheel is not i tted with
a sensor.

BRAKING ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS *
Group of supplementary systems which
help you to obtain optimum braking in
complete safety in emergency situa-
tions:
- the anti-lock braking system (ABS),
- the electronic brake force distribu-tion (EBFD),
- the emergency braking assistance (EBA).
Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution
Linked systems which improve the sta-
bility and manoeuvrability of your vehicle
when braking, in particular on poor or
slippery surfaces.
When braking in an emergency,
press very i rmly without releasing
the pressure. When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to
the manufacturer's recommenda-
tions.
Operating fault
If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message on the multi-
function display, it indicates a
malfunction of the anti-lock braking sys-
tem which could result in loss of control
of the vehicle when braking.
If this warning light comes on,
together with the STOP and

ABS warning lights, accompa-
nied by an audible signal and a
message on the multifunction display, it
indicates a malfunction of the electron-
ic brake force distribution which could
result in loss of control of the vehicle
when braking.

You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so. Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, ena-
bles you to obtain the optimum braking
pressure more quickly, thus reducing
the stopping distance.
Activation
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when there
is a risk of wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal. Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase
in braking efi ciency.
* According to country.
In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.

SAFETY
102
The ESP/ASR systems offer ex-
ceptional 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 recommen-
dations regarding the wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and the
PEUGEOT assembly and opera-
tion procedures.
After an impact, have these sys-
tems checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
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.
 Press the "ESP OFF" button, located
in the centre of the fascia.
If this warning light comes on on
the instrument panel and the in-
dicator light on the button comes
on, this indicates that the ASR
and ESP systems are disarmed.
Reactivation
These systems are reactivated automa-
tically each time the ignition is switched
back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h) (ex-
cept in the case of the 1.6 l 16V THP
175 bhp petrol engine).

 Press the "ESP OFF" button again
to reactivate them manually.
Operating fault
If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message on the mul-
tifunction display, this indicates
a malfunction of these systems.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
systems checked.
TRAJECTORY CONTROL
SYSTEMS
Activation
These systems are activated automati-
cally each time the vehicle is started.
Anti-skid regulation (ASR) and
electronic stability programme
(ESP)
The anti-skid regulation optimises trac-
tion to prevent skidding of the wheels,
by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine.
The electronic stability programme acts
on the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to keep the vehicle on the
trajectory required by the driver.
They come into operation in
the event of a grip or trajectory
problem.
This is indicated by l ashing of
this warning light on the instru-
ment panel. Steering/ESP coupling system
(SSP)
This system optimises the stability of
the vehicle and its braking capacity by
combining the actions of the ESP and
electric power steering when braking on
surfaces on which the grip of the right-
hand and left-hand wheel differs.
It permits increased braking of the
wheels which are in contact with the
section of road offering the higher level
of grip and, anticipating the instability of
the vehicle, the application of a slight
correction to the turning angle of the
wheels to assist the driver in maintain-
ing his trajectory.

AIR BAGS The air bags do not operate
when the ignition is switched off.
This equipment will only operate
once. If a second impact occurs (du-
ring the same or a subsequent acci-
dent), the air bag will not operate. Front air bags
System which protects the head and
chest of the driver and front passenger
in the event of a front impact.
The driver's air bag is incorporated in the
centre of the steering wheel; the front
passenger's air bag is incorpora ted in
the fascia above the glove box.
Activation
The air bags are triggered simulta-
neously, unless the passenger's front
air bag is disarmed, in the event of a
se rious front impact applied to all or part
of the front impact zone
A , in the lon-
gitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the
front to the rear of the vehicle.
The front air bag inl ates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
fascia to cushion his forward move-
ment.
Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.

B. Side impact zone.
Triggering of the air bag(s) is ac-
companied by a slight emission of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to
the activation of the pyrotechnic cart-
ridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sen-
sitive individuals may experience
slight irritation.
The noise of the detonation may
result in a slight loss of hearing for
a short time.
System designed to maximise the safety
of the occupants (with the exception of
the rear centre passenger) in the event
of violent collisions. It supplements the
action of the force-limiting seat belts.

If a collision occurs, the electronic de-
tectors record and analyse the front and
side impacts sustained in the impact
detection zones:
- in the case of a serious impact, the
air bags are triggered instantly and
protect the occupants of the vehicle
(with the exception of the rear centre
passenger); immediately after the
impact, the air bags del ate rapidly
so that they do not hinder visibility or
the exit of the occupants,
- in the case of a minor or rear impact or in certain roll-over conditions, the
air bags will not be triggered; the
seat belt alone is sufi cient to pro-
vide optimum protection in these
situations.
