PEUGEOT 807 2006 Owners Manual

GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO
CHILD SEATS
Although one of PEUGEOT’s main criteria
when designing your vehicle, the safety of
your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow these
precautions:since 1992, and in accordance with
Directive 2000/3, all children under
the age of 12 must travel in approved
child seats* suited to their weight , on
seats fitted with a seat belt or ISOFIX
mountings**.
 statistically, the safest seats in your
vehicle for the transportation of
children are the rear seats,
 a child weighing less than 9 kg must
travel in the "rearwards-facing"
position both in the front and in the
rear.
PEUGEOT recommends that children
should travel in the rear seats of your
vehicle: "rearwards-facing" up to the age of 2,
 "forwards-facing" over the age of 2. INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT USING A THREE POINT SEAT BE

When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat ,
adjust the vehicle’s seat to the intermediate
longitudinal position with the seat back
upright and leave the passenger air bag
armed**.
* According to current legislation in the country.

Child safety
ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the air bag were
to inflate.
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child’s shoulder without
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child’s thighs.
PEUGEOT recommends the use of a
booster seat which has a back, fitted with a
seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave: one or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
 a child or an animal in a vehicle which
is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,
 the keys within reach of children inside the
vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the doors,
use the "Child lock"*.
Take care not to open the rear windows
by more than one third*.
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child’s protection in
the event of an accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses
keeping the slack in
relation to the child’s body to a minimum,
even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the "forward
facing" child seat, ensure that the back of
the child seat is in contact with the back of
the vehicle’s seat and that the head restraint
does not cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be removed,
ensure that it is stored or attached securely
to prevent it from being thrown around the
vehicle in the event of sharp braking.
Children under the age of 10 must not travel
in the "forward facing" position on the front
passenger seat, unless the rear seats are
already occupied by other children, cannot
be used or are absent.
Disarm the passenger air bag* when a "rear
facing" child seat is installed on the front
seat. To protect young children from the rays of
the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.
* According to version.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS) AND ELECTRONIC BRAKE
FORCE DISTRIBUTION (EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the electronic
brake force distribution, increases the
stability and manoevrability of your vehicle
on braking, in particular on poor or slippery
road surfaces.
HORN
Press one of the spokes of the steering wheel.
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 malfunction of the ABS, which
can cause a loss of control of the vehicle
when braking.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 resistance of the pedal
and an increase in braking efficiency.

When this warning light comes
on, connected to the STOP
warning light, accompanied
by a buzzer and a message, it
indicates that there is a malfunction of the
electronic 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.
In emergency braking, press very firmly
without releasing the pressure.
