They switch off automatically the fi rst
time you accelerate.

 You can also switch them off by
pressing the button.

SAFETY
105
The ASC/TCL systems offer
exceptional safety in normal
driving, but this should not en-
courage 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 ASC system,
so that the wheels can move freely and
regain grip.

 Press the "ASC OFF" button, locat-
ed to the right of the steering wheel,
until the ASC OFF symbol appears
on the instrument panel display.
The displaying of this symbol in the top
right corner of the instrument panel dis-
play indicates that the ASC and TCL
systems are disarmed. Reactivation
These systems are not reactivated au-
tomatically above 30 mph (50 km/h).

 Press the "ASC OFF" button again
to reactivate them manually.
The switching off of the symbol in the
top right corner of the instrument panel
display indicates the reactivation of the
ASC and TCL systems.
Operating fault
The displaying of this mes-
sage on the instrument
panel display indicates a
malfunction of these sys-
tems.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the ASC/TCL systems checked.
TRAJECTORY CONTROL
SYSTEMS
Activation
These systems are activated automati-
cally each time the vehicle is started.
They operate when the vehicle speed is
higher than 10 mph (15 km/h).
Anti-skid regulation and
electronic stability programme
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 fl ashing of this
symbol on the instrument panel display.
Associated systems which guarantee
the directional stability of the vehicle
within the limits of the laws of physics:
- the anti-skid regulation (TCL),
- the electronic stability programme (ASC).

SAFETY
109
AIRBAGS The airbags do not operate
when the ignition is switched
off.
This equipment will only operate
once. If a second impact occurs
(during the same or a subse-
quent accident), the airbag 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 incorporated
in the fascia above the glove box.
Activation
The air bags are triggered simultane-
ously, unless the passenger's front air
bag is disarmed, in the event of a seri-
ous 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 infl ates between the front
occupant of the vehicle and the fascia to
cushion his forward movement.
Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.

B. Side impact zone.
Triggering of the airbag(s) is ac-
companied by a slight emission
of harmless smoke and a noise,
due to the activation of the pyro-
technic cartridge incorporated in
the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but
sensitive individuals may expe-
rience 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 im-
pact detection zones:
- in the case of a serious impact, the
airbags are triggered instantly and
protect the occupants of the vehicle
(with the exception of the rear cen-
tre passenger); immediately after the
impact, the airbags defl 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
airbags will not be triggered; the
seat belt alone is suffi cient to pro-
vide optimum protection in these
situations.

6
SAFETY
For the airbags to be fully
effective, observe the
following safety rules:
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat
belt.
Do not leave anything between
the occupants and the airbags
(a child, pet, object...). This could
hamper the operation of the air-
bags or injure the occupants. Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resti
ng your hands on
the centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the dashboard.
If possible, do not smoke as deployment of the airbags can cau se burns or the
risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.
Side airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats. These will not hinder i nfl ation of the
side airbags. Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fi x or apply anything to the seat backs. This could ca use injury to the
chest or arms if the side air bag is triggered.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nea rer to the door than necessary.
After an accident or if the vehi-
cle has been stolen or broken
into, have the airbag systems
checked.
All work on the airbag system is
strictly forbidden unless it is car-
ried out by qualifi ed personnel of
the PEUGEOT dealer network.
Even if all of the precautions men-
tioned are observed, a risk of in-
jury or of minor burns to the head,
chest or arms when an airbag
is triggered cannot be ruled out.
The bag infl ates almost instantly
(within a few milliseconds) then
defl ates within the same time dis-
charging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose. Curtain airbags
Do not fi x or apply anything to the roof. This could cause
injury to the head if
the curtain airbag is triggered.
Do not remove the grab handles installed on the ro of, they play a part in securing
the curtain airbags.

"CVT" GEARBOX
The six-speed automatic gearbox of-
fers a choice between the comfort of
automatic regulation or the pleasure of
manual gear changing.
This gearbox enables you to access
two driving modes:
- an automated mode for automatic
control of the gears by the gearbox
and therefore without any action on
the part of the driver,
- a sequential mode for manual changing of the gears by the driver
using the steering wheel controls or
the gear lever.
It consists of the following controls:
- a gear lever 1 on the centre console
for selecting the driving mode, reverse
gear and neutral or for changing gear in
sequential mode,
