Sensors fitted in each valve check the tyre pressure during driving and trigger a warning in the event of malfunction (speed above 12 mph(20 km/h)).
The service warning light comes on on the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal and a mes-sage on the multifunction display locating the wheel concerned.
Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible. This check must be carried out when the tyres are cold.
Puncture
The STOP warning light comes on on the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the multi-function display locating the wheel concerned.
Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden movement of the steering wheel and the brakes.
Change the damaged wheel (punc-tured or very deflated tyre), and have the tyre pressure checked as soon as possible.
The service warning light comes on on the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal and a mes-sage on the multifunction display locating the wheel or wheels which are not detected or indicating a fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace the faulty sensor(s).
Flat tyre
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
Notes:
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 fitted.
The spare wheel is not fitted with a sensor.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS) AND
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.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
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 ef-fect of this is a reduction in the resist-ance of the pedal and an increase in braking efficiency.
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 and ABS warn-ing lights, accompanied by a buzzer and a message, it indicates that there is a malfunction of the electronic brake force distribu-tion, which can cause a loss of con-trol of the vehicle when braking.
Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake pedal.
In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasing the pressure.

TRACTION 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.
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" switch, located on the central section of the fascia.
Operating check
Operation of the ASR and ESP systems
The switch lights up and the warning light comes on: the ASR and ESP systems are disarmed.
Reactivation
 Automatic if the ignition is switched off.
Automatic above 30 mph (50 km/h).
 Manual by pressing the switch again.
When a malfunction of the systems occurs, the switch light flashes and the warn-ing light comes on, accom-panied by an audible signal and a message on the multifunction display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the systems checked.
The warning light flashes if the ASR or ESP is activated.

Fastening the seat belts
 Pull the strap, then insert the buckle into the stalk.
Check that the seat belt is fastened by pulling the strap.
Unfastening the seat belts
When the ignition is switched on, the warning light comes on if the driver has not fas-tened his seat belt.
With the engine running and the doors closed, the warning light goes off automatically after 30 seconds.
If the seat belt is unfastened:
- below 12 mph (20 km/h), the warning light comes on constantly,- above 12 mph (20 km/h) and for two minutes, the warning light flashes accompanied by an audible signal of increasing volume. Once these two minutes have elapsed, the warning light remains on until the driver fastens his seat belt.
SEAT BELTS
Press the red button on the stalk then remove the buckle.

The two rear seats are both fitted with three-point inertia reel seat belts with force-limiting devices.
Slide the straps in the guides 1 to prevent fluttering of the rear seat belts in cabriolet mode.

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 inflate instantly and protect the occupants of the vehicle.
Immediately after the impact, the air bags deflate 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 sufficient 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.
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.
If this warning light comes on, accompanied by a buzz-er and a message on the multifunction display,con-tact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system checked.

In the "OFF" position, the passenger air bag will not be triggered in the event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed, turn the air bag switch to the "ON"position to re-activate the air bag and thus ensure the safety of your passenger in the event of an impact.
SIDE AIR BAGS
With the ignition on, this is confirmed by illumination of this warning light which in-dicates that the passenger air bag is disarmed (switch in the "OFF" position).
The warning light is lit throughout the duration of disarming.
If this indicator light comes on, accompanied by an au-dible signal and a message on the multi-function dis-play, contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system checked.
Operating fault
Disarming checkThe side air bags are incorporated in the backs of the front seats, on the door side.
They are deployed independently of each other, on whichever side the collision occurs.
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 seriously injured or killed if the air bag were to inflate.
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 switch in this position.
