HANDBRAKE
Applying
When parking, pull the handbrake to
immobilize your vehicle.
Warning: when parking on a slope,
direct your wheels towards the pave-
ment and pull the handbrake.
Releasing
Pull on the handle and press the
button to release the handbrake.
Disengaging
Apply the handbrake.
Pull the button located at the end of
the handbrake forwards.
The handbrake lever lowers.
You can now pivot the seat. To return to normal operation, pull the
lever upwards until a click is heard.
Illumination of this light,
accompanied by an audible
signal and the message
"handbrake on" on the
multi-function display, indi-
cates that the handbrake is still on or
has not been properly released.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
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 re-
sistance of the pedal and an increase
in braking eficiency.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS) AND THE
ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE
DISTRIBUTION (EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the
electronic brake force distribution,
increases the stability and mano-
evrability of your vehicle, particularly
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 the message
"ABS fault" , it indicates
that there is a malfunction of
the ABS, which can cause a loss of
control of the vehicle when braking. When this warning light
comes on, connected to the
STOP
warning light, accom-
panied by a buzzer and the
message 'Braking fault' , it
indicates that there is a malfunction
of the electronic brake force distri-
bution, 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 system.
In emergency braking, press
very irmly without releasing
the pressure.

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP)
These systems are linked and com-
plement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive
to prevent the wheels skidding, by
acting on the brakes of the drive
wheels and on the engine. It also
allows the directional stability of
the vehicle to be improved on
acceleration.
If there is a variation between the
trajectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESP
system automatically acts on the
engine and the brake of one or more
wheels, in order to put the vehicle
back on course.
The warning light lashes if
the ASR or ESP is activated. Disarming the ESP/ASR systems
In certain conditions (vehicle stuck in
mud or snow, or on loose ground...),
it could prove useful to disarm the
ASR and ESP systems to make the
wheels spin and regain grip.
F
Press switch "1", situated under
the steering wheel on the right of
the fascia.
They engage again:
F automatically above 20 mph
(30 km/h),
F manually by pressing switch 1
again. The indicator light comes
on, accompanied by the
message
"ESP/ASR deac-
tivated" : the ESP and ASR
systems no longer act on the
engine operation but remain active
on the brakes. Operating check
When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the indica-
tor light comes on accom-
panied by an audible signal
and the message "ESP/ASR
not functioning" on the multifunc-
tion display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
The ASR/ESP systems offer
increased safety during nor-
mal driving, but should not
incite the driver to take risks
or to drive at high speed.
The operation of the systems is
ensured if the recommendations
of the manufacturer regarding the
wheels (tyres and wheel rims), the
braking components, the electronic
components and the assembly
and repair procedures within the
PEUGEOT network are observed.
After an impact, have the systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

CRUISE CONTROL
Cruise control enables the vehicle to
maintain a steady speed programmed
by the driver, regardless of the road
characteristics and without the driver
having to touch the accelerator or
brake pedals.
In order for it to be memorised,
the vehicle speed must be greater
than 25 mph (40 km/h) or 37 mph
(60 km/h) with at least fourth gear
engaged (second gear for the auto-
matic gearbox). F Place knob 1 in the ON
position.
A speed can be memorised.

speed, press button 2 or 3. This
memorises the speed, which will be
maintained automatically.
Note: It is possible to accelerate and
drive momentarily at a speed greater
than the speed stored. When the
accelerator pedal is released, the ve-
hicle will return to the stored speed.
Cancelling the memorised speed
If you wish to cancel the memorised
speed:
F Press button 4 or the brake or
clutch pedal.
Recalling the memorised speed
After cancellation, press button 4.
Your vehicle will return to the last
memorised speed. Changing a memorised speed
To memorise a speed higher than the

Detection zone
Activation
The system is activated as soon as
reverse gear is engaged; an audible
bleep shows that it is active.
The proximity information is given by
an audible signal, which becomes
more rapid as the vehicle approaches
the obstacle.
When the distance between the rear
of the vehicle and the obstacle is less
than approximately twenty-ive centi-
metres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
Deactivation
In neutral, the system is again
inactive.
REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE
This system consists of four proximity
sensors, located in the rear bumper,
and a special speaker.
This detects any obstacle (person,
vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) behind the
vehicle. Nevertheless, it cannot de-
tect obstacles located just below the
bumper.
An object, such as a stake, a road-
works cone or any other similar
object may be detected at the begin-
ning of the manoeuvre, but may no
longer be detected when the vehicle
comes close to it.
Note: this function will be disarmed
automatically when the vehicle is
towing a trailer or when a bicycle
carrier is itted (vehicle itted with
towing attachment or bicycle carrier
recommended by PEUGEOT).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that
the sensors are not covered with
mud, frost or snow.
If there is an operating
fault, the audible signal
will be a short bleep
followed by a long bleep
when changing to reverse
gear.

- the road proile,
- the vehicle load.
The gearbox is then operating in
auto-adaptive mode, without any
action on your part.
WARNING
Never select position N when the
vehicle is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless
the vehicle is stationary.
Never change between positions to
optimise braking on a slippery sur-
face.
Notes
For immediate maximum accelera-
tion without touching the gear lever,
press the accelerator pedal down as
far as it will go (kick down). The gear-
box will automatically change down
or maintain the gear selected until
maximum engine speed is reached.
When braking, the gearbox will
automatically change down in order
to provide eficient engine braking. If you take your foot off the accel-
erator suddenly, the gearbox will not
change to a higher gear for reasons
of safety.

change to a lower gear.
You can change from position D
(driving in automatic mode) to posi-
tion M (driving in manual mode) at
any time.
Note
It is only possible to change from one
gear to another if the vehicle speed
and engine speed permit. If they do
not, the vehicle will operate tempo-
rarily in automatic mode.
When the vehicle is stationary or
moving very slowly, the gearbox
automatically selects gear M1.
The T (snow) programme does not
operate in manual mode.
Operating abnormality
Any operating abnormality is indicated
by an audible signal, accompanied
by the message "Automatic gear
fault" on the multi-function display and
lashing of the Snow warning light on
the instrument panel.

YOUR 807 IN DETAILAIR BAGS
The air bags have been designed
to maximise the safety of the oc-
cupants in the event of serious col-
lisions. They work in conjunction
with the force-limiting seat belts.
The electronic detectors register and
analyse any abrupt deceleration of
the vehicle: if the triggering thresh-
old is reached, the air bags inlate
instantly and protect the occupants
of the vehicle.
Immediately after the impact, the air
bags delate rapidly so that they do
not hinder the visibility of the occu-
pants nor their exit if necessary from
the vehicle.
The air bags are not deployed in
the case of collisions which are not
serious, for which the seat belt is
suficient to ensure maximum protec-
tion. The seriousness of a collision
depends on the nature of the obstacle
and the speed of the vehicle at the
moment of the collision.
Air bags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
Note: the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant.
MANUAL GEARBOX

Disarming the passenger
air bag*
To ensure the safety of your child,
it is essential to disarm the pas-
senger air bag when you install a
rear-facing child seat on the front
passenger seat. Otherwise, the
child would risk being killed or
seriously injured if the air bag
were to inlate.
F With the ignition switched off ,
insert the key into the passenger
air bag disarming switch 1, turn
it to the "OFF" position, then
remove the key keeping the slot in
this position.
The air bag warning light on the
instrument panel is lit throughout the
disarming process. In the
"OFF" position, the passenger
air bag will not be triggered in the
event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
turn the air bag slot to the "ON" po-
sition to re-activate the air bag and
thus ensure the safety of your pas-
senger in the event of an impact.
Disarming check
This is conirmed by an indicator
light, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the multi-
function display.
With the ignition on (2nd
notch), illumination of this
warning light accompanied
by an audible signal and the
message "Passenger air
bag deactivated" on the multifunc-
tion display, indicates that the pas-
senger air bag is disarmed (switch in
the "OFF" position).
