HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS
Automatic lighting of hazard
warning lights *
When braking in an emergency, de-
pending on the deceleration, the haz-
ard warning lights come on automati-
cally. They switch off automatically the
i rst time you accelerate.
It is also possible to switch them off by
pressing the button.
* According to country.
Press one of the spokes of the steer-
ing wheel.
Press the button, the direction indica-
tors l ash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS) AND ELECTRONIC
BRAKE FORCE DISTRIBUTION
(EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the elec-
tronic brake force distribution, increases
the stability and manoeuvrability 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.
When this warning light
comes on, accompanied by
a buzzer and a message, it
indicates that there is a mal-
function of the ABS, which
can cause a loss of control of the vehi-
cle when braking. When this warning light comes
on, connected to the
STOP
and ABS warning lights, ac-
companied by a buzzer and
a message, it indicates that
there is a malfunction of the electron-
ic brake force distribution, which can
cause a loss of control of the vehicle
when braking.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations of
the brake pedal.
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 effect
of this is a reduction in the resistance
of the pedal and an increase in brak-
ing efi ciency.
In emergency braking, press
very i rmly without releasing
the pressure.

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
Sensors check the tyre pressure dur-
ing driving and trigger a warning in the
event of malfunction (speed greater
than 15 mph [25 km/h]). Sensor(s) not detected
This warning light, accompa-
nied by an audible signal and
a message on the multifunction
display, indicates that under-
inl ation detection is absent
from one (or several) tyre(s).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace
the faulty sensor(s).
Pressure check
With the ignition on and after
the engine oil level, this warn-
ing light comes on to indicate
that the system is measuring
the pressure of the tyres.
Pressure OK This warning light comes on
if all of the tyre pressure val-
ues measured are correct.
If one of the warning lights
described below appears,
refer to the corresponding paragraph.
If none of the lights appear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer to have the system
checked. Under-inl ated tyre
This warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
multifunction display, locat-
ing the del ated tyre.
Have the tyre pressure checked as
soon as possible.
Puncture
This warning light, accom-
panied by an audible signal
and a message on the multi-
function display locating the
punctured tyre, is followed
by illumination of the STOP-
warning light.
Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-
den movement of the steering wheel
and the brakes.
Change the damaged (punctured or
very del ated) tyre, and have the tyre
pressure checked as soon as possible. All repairs and changing of
tyres on a wheel i tted with this
system must be carried out by a
PEUGEOT dealer.

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 re-
sponsibly.
This system does not remove the ne-
cessity for having the tyre pressure
(including that of the spare wheel)
checked regularly, to ensure optimum
dynamic performance of the vehicle
and to prevent premature wear of the
tyres, particularly in the case of ardu-
ous driving conditions (heavy load,
high speed).
The system may temporarily be dis-
turbed by radio broadcasts on a fre-
quency close to it.

Note: if the damaged tyre is
temporarily stored in the boot,
it will again emit this message
to remind you of the necessity
of having it repaired. This will prevent
another warning of the same type be-
ing displayed.
Note: this message is also
displayed when one of the
tyres is away from the vehi-
cle (being repaired) or when a
wheel without a sensor is i tted.

SEAT BELTS
The rear seats are all i tted with a
three-point inertia reel seat belt with
force limiter.
Safety in the event of a frontal
impact has been improved by
the introduction of seat belts
with pre-tensioner and force
limiter connected to the front air bags.
Depending on the seriousness of the
impact, the pre-tensioning system in-
stantly tightens the seat belts i rmly
against the bodies of the occupants.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are
armed when the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure
of the seat belt on the body of the oc-
cupant in the event of an accident.
With the vehicle station-
ary, when the ignition is
switched on, the warn-
ing light comes on if the
driver and/or the front
passenger has not fas-
tened his seat belt.
Front seat belts with pre-tensioner
and force limiter Front seat belt not fastened/

To lock the seat belts

 Pull the strap, then insert the end
into the buckle.

 Check that it is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap.
To unlock the seat belts

 Press the red button on the buckle,
then remove the end. Seat belt warning light
Before moving off, the driver
must ensure that all passen-
gers have fastened their seat
belts.
When the vehicle is stationary, igni-
tion on, if the driver and/or the front
passenger has not fastened his
seat belt, the warning light on the
instrument panel comes on, then
from approximately 12 mph (20 km/h) and for
two minutes, this warning light l ashes accom-
panied by an audible signal which increases
in volume. Once these two minutes have
elapsed, the warning light remains on until the
driver or front passenger fastens his seat belt.
This warning light is always accompanied by a
message on the multifunction display.
When the vehicle is moving, the warning light
comes on if the driver or front passenger un-
fastens his seat belt.

Note: a bag or a pet placed on the front pas-
senger seat may trigger the lighting of this
warning light.

AIR BAGS
The air bags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
(with the exception of the rear centre
passenger) in the event of serious col-
lisions; they work in conjunction with
the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, the
electronic detectors record and analyse
the front and side impacts suffered in the
impact detection zones (see diagram): in
the event of a serious impact, the air bags
inl ate instantly and protect the occupants
of the vehicle (with the exception of the
rear centre passenger).
FRONT AIR BAGS
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, in
the event of a serious front impact applied
in the impact zone A in the longitudinal
centreline, on a horizontal plane and from
the front towards the rear of the vehicle.
The air bag inl ates between the front oc-
cupant of the vehicle and the fascia to
cushion his forward movement. In this
way, the air bags limit the risk of injury to
the head and chest.

Recommendations for
children:
* According to model.
This equipment will only oper-
ate once. If a second impact
occurs (during the same or a
subsequent accident), the air
bag will not operate.
- use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one metre i fty,
- do not use the strap-guide * when a child seat is installed.
- never use the same seat belt to secure more than one person,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap.

Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impacts , the pre-
tensioning device may be triggered
before and independently of the air
bags.
In all cases, the air bag warning light
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if necessary
replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer. Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.

B. Side impact zone.
Immediately after the impact, the air
bags del ate rapidly, so that they do
not hinder the visibility of the occu-
pants nor their possible exit from the
vehicle.
The air bags will not be deployed in
collisions which are not serious, rear
impacts or in certain roll-over condi-
tions. The seat belt is sufi cient to
provide maximum protection in these
situations.

Air bags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
Note: the triggering of an air bag or air
bags is accompanied by a slight dis-
charge of harmless smoke and a noise,
due to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
This gas may cause slight irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time.
