SAFETY
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).
When braking in an emergency,
p r e s s v e r y fi r m l y w i t h o u t r e l e a s -
ing the pressure. The two warning lights comes
on at the same time and the two
warnings are displayed alternately
on the instrument panel display.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Operating fault
If this warning light comes on, accompa-
nied by the indication on the instrument
panel display, it indicates a malfunction
of the anti-lock braking system which
could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle when braking.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
If these two warning lights come on, linked
with the warnings on the instrument panel
display, they indicate a malfunction of the
electronic brake force distribution which
could result in a loss of control of the ve-
hicle on braking.
You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
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. The warning light comes on for
a few seconds when the ignition
is switched on (ON position). If it
does not switch off or does not
come on, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
When the vehicle is stationary
When the vehicle is moving
If this warning light comes on
continuously it indicates a mal-
function of the anti-lock braking
system which could result in a
loss of control of the vehicle on braking.
You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Activation
The anti-lock braking system is active if
the vehicle speed is higher than 6 mph
(10 km/h). It is deactivated when the
vehicle speed falls below 3 mph (5 km/h).
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.

SAFETY
The driver must ensure that passen-

justment of the length of the strap
to your size. The seat belt is stored
automatically when not in use.

automatic locking device which
comes into operation in the event
of a collision, emergency braking
or if the vehicle rolls over. You can
release the device by pulling rapidly
on the strap and releasing it so that
it re-winds slightly. Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to se-
cure more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your
lap.
In order to be effective, a seat belt:
- must be tightened as close to the
body as possible,
- must restrain one person of adult size 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,
- m u s t n o t b e a l t e r e d o r m o d i fi e d t o avoid altering its performance.
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 regularly
by a PEUGEOT dealer and particularly
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 reeled in correctly.
Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impacts
, the pre-
tensioning device may be triggered
before and independently of the air-
bags. Triggering of the pre-tensioners
is accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer.

SAFETY
If the air bag warning light and
the display come on continuous-
ly, do not install a "rear facing"
child seat on the front passenger
seat.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Operating fault
If this warning light comes on on the
instrument panel and this display ap-
pears on the instrument panel display,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
system checked. The air bags may no
longer be triggered in the event of a se-
rious impact.
To guarantee the safety of your
child, it is imperative that the
passenger air bag is disarmed
when you install a "rear facing"
child seat on the front passen-
ger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk
being seriously injured or killed
if the air bag were triggered.
This warning light comes on on the centre
console front panel when the ignition is on
and until the air bag is re-armed.
Reactivation
When you remove the child seat, turn
switch
A to the "ON" position to re-arm
the air bag and so guarantee the safety
of your front passenger in the event of
an impact.
The associated warning light switches off.
Deactivation
Only the front passenger's air bag can
be disarmed:
with the ignition off , insert the key
in the passenger air bag disarming
switch A ,
turn it to the "OFF" position,
remove the key.
