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.

driven, the respective illumi-
nation of these warning lights
