SAFETY








TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
System which automatically checks the
pressure of the tyres while driving.
All repairs and changing of
tyres on a wheel fi tted with this
system must be carried out by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you install
a wheel which is not detected by
your vehicle (example: fi tting of snow
tyres), you must have the system re-
initialised by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.

This system does not avoid
the need to have the tyre pres-
sures checked regularly (refer
to the "Identifi cation markings" sec-
tion) to ensure that the optimum dy-
namic performance of the vehicle is
maintained and prevent premature
wear of the tyres, particularly in ar-
duous 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-infl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to electromagnetic
emissions on a frequency close to
that used by the system.

Sensors fi tted in each valve trigger a
warning in the event of malfunction
(speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).
The spare wheel is not fi tted with a sensor.

This warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the multifunction screen,
accompanied by an audible signal, to
identify the wheel concerned.


)
Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible.

This check must be carried out when the
tyres are cold.
Under-infl ated tyre
The STOP
warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
multifunction screen identifying the
wheel concerned.


)
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so,
avoiding any sudden movement of
the steering wheel and the brakes.

)
Change the damaged wheel (punc-
tured or very defl ated tyre), and
have the tyre pressure checked as
soon as possible.

Puncture

The tyre under-infl ation detec-
tion system is an aid to driv-
ing 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 in the multifunc-
tion screen, accompanied by an audible
signal, to identify the wheel or wheels
which are not detected or to indicate a
fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).

This message is also dis-
played when one of the wheels
is away from the vehicle (be-
ing repaired) or when one or more
wheels without a sensor are fi tted.

SAFETY








ELECTRONIC STABILITY
PROGRAMME (ESC)
Electronic Stability Programme (ESC:
Electronic Stability Control) incorporat-
ing the following systems:


- the anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and the electronic brake force distri-
bution (EBFD),

- the emergency braking assistance,

- the anti-slip regulation (ASR) or
traction control,

- the dynamic stability control (DSC).


Definitions

Anti-skid regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Trac-
tion Control) optimises traction in order
to avoid wheel slip by acting on the
brakes of the driving wheels and on the
engine. It also improves the directional
stability of the vehicle on acceleration.

Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that re-
quired by the driver, the DSC monitors
each wheel and automatically acts on
the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to return the vehicle to
the required path, within the limits of the
laws of physics.

Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables
you to reach the optimum braking pres-
sure more quickly and therefore reduce
the stopping distance.
It is triggered in relation to 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 effec-
tiveness of the braking.

Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking and offers improved control in
corners, in particular on poor or slippery
road surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution
system manages the braking pressure
wheel by wheel.


Operation

When this warning lamp
comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message, it indicates that
there is a fault with the ABS,
which could cause loss of control of the
vehicle when braking.

When this warning lamp comes
on, coupled with the STOP
warn-
ing lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message,
it indicates that there is a fault
with the electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD), which could cause loss of control
of the vehicle when braking.

You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.


In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that
these are approved for your
vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations of
the brake pedal.


In emergency braking, press
very fi rmly without releas-
ing the pressure.

DRIVING

The electric parking brake combines
2 operational modes:


- Automatic application/release

Application is automatic when the
engine stops, release is automatic
on use of the accelerator (activated
by default),

- Manual application/release

The parking brake can be applied/
released manually by pulling control
lever A
.






ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE



Deactivation is recommended
in particularly cold conditions
(ice) and during towing (break-
down, caravan...). Refer to the
"Manual release" paragraph.

Programming the mode
Depending on the country of registration
of the vehicle, the automatic application
when the engine is switched off and the
automatic release when you press the
accelerator can be deactivated.
If this warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel,
the automatic mode is deac-
tivated. Activation/deactivation of
this function is possible by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
The parking brake is then applied and
released manually. When the driver's
door is opened, there is an audible sig-
nal and a message is displayed if the
brake is not applied.

Do not place any object (packet
of cigarettes, telephone, ...) be-
hind the electric brake control.

DRIVING

Particular situations


In certain situations (e.g. start-
ing the engine), the parking brake
can automatically alter its force. This
is normal operation.
To advance your vehicle a few cen-
timetres without starting the engine,
but with the ignition on, press on the
brake pedal and release the park-
ing brake by pulling
then releasing

control lever A
. The full release of
the parking brake is confi rmed by the
warning lamp in the control lever A

and the warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel going off and the display
of the message "Handbrake off".
If a parking brake fault occurs while
applied
or if the battery runs fl at, an
emergency release is always pos-
sible.










EMERGENCY BRAKING


In the event of a failure of the main ser-
vice brake or in an exceptional situation
(e.g. driver taken ill, under instruction,
etc) a continuous pull
on the control
lever
A
will stop the vehicle
.
The electronic stability programme
(ESP) provides stability during emer-
gency braking.
If there is a fault with the emergency
braking, one of the following messages
will be displayed:


- "Parking brake faulty".

- "Parking brake control faulty".
If a failure of the ESP system
is signalled by the illumina-
tion of this warning lamp, then
braking stability is not guaran-
teed.
In this event, stability must be assured
by the driver by repeating alternate "pull
release" actions on control lever A
.



The emergency braking must
only be used in exceptional
circumstances.
