WARNING LIGHTS
Each time the engine is started: a series of warning lights comes on applying a self-test check. They switch off almost
immediately. With the engine running: the warning light becomes a warning if it remains on continuously or fl ashes.
This initial warning may be accompanied by an audible signal and a message which appears on the display. "Do not
ignore these warnings."

IMPROVED SAFETY AND SECURITY
In the event of a front impact, the
retractable steering column limits the
backwards movement of the steering
wheel and the risks of intrusion of the
engine and gearbox into the passenger
compartment are reduced.
In the event of a side impact, you are
inside a cell armed with solid side
strengtheners.
With 5 stars in
the Euro NCAP
ADULT OCCUPANT
PROTECTION tests,
the 807 protects you
in several ways. Its
structure absorbs
a large proportion of the energy
connected with impacts.
Tests carried out on an 807 fi tted with
the 2.0 HDi engine.

Details of the other components are
given in the content of this chapter.

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
manoeuvrability 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.
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 fi rmly without releasing the
pressure.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables
the optimum braking pressure to be
reached more quickly, press the pedal
fi rmly without releasing it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is activated.
This alters the resistance of the brake
pedal under your foot.
To prolong the operation of the
emergency braking assistance system:
keep your foot on the brake pedal.

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP)
Activation of the ASR and ESP
systems
When the ignition is on, the ASR and
ESP systems are always active. Disarming the ASR/ESP 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.
- Press the switch, situated under the
steering wheel on the right of the
fascia.
The indicator light comes on
accompanied by a message:
the ESP and ASR systems
no longer act on the engine
operation, but continue to act
on the brakes. Operating check
The ASR/ESP systems offer
increased safety during normal
driving, but should not incite the
driver to take risks or to drive at high
speed.
The operation of these systems is
ensured if the recommendations
of the manufacturer regarding
the wheels (tyres and rims), the
braking components, the electronic
components and the fi tting and repair
procedures within the PEUGEOT
network are observed.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

They engage again:
- automatically above 30 mph (50 km/h),
- manually by pressing the switch again.
Operation of the ASR and
ESP systems
The warning light fl ashes if
the ASR or ESP is activated.
These systems are linked and
complement 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, within the limits of the laws
of physics.
When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the indicator
light comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message on the display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.

Child safety
ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
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.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, fi t side blinds to
the rear windows.
CHILD MONITORING MIRROR
This mirror enables the driver or front
passenger to observe all the rear
seats.
Fitted on its own ball joint and able to
retract into its housing in the roof, it
provides a panoramic view of the rear
interior of the vehicle.
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.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the air bag
were to infl ate. 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.
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, fi tted
with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.

Having your vehicle towed
From the rear
- unclip the top of the cover using a coin,
- screw in the removable towing eye until it locks.
TOWING YOUR VEHICLE
Special features of
the automatic gearbox
When being towed with four wheels on
the road, it is essential to observe
the following rules:
- selector lever in position N ,
- tow the vehicle at a speed below 30 mph (50 km/h) over a distance
limited to 30 miles (50 km)
maximum,
- do not add oil to the gearbox.
When towing with the engine switched
off, there is no braking or steering
assistance.
Without lifting
(4 wheels on the road)
You should always use a towbar.
The removable towing eye is inside the
engine compartment.
From the front
- unclip the cover by pressing the
bottom part,
- screw in the removable towing eye until it locks. Lifting (2 wheels on the road only)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle
using professional lifting equipment.
VEHICLES FITTED WITH A MANUAL
GEARBOX (diesel version)
In the case of vehicles fi tted with a
manual gearbox, the gear lever must
be in the neutral position. Failure to
observe this special condition may
result in damage to certain braking
components and the absence of
braking assistance the next time
the engine is started.
Put the gear lever in neutral.
Failure to observe this rule may
result in damage to certain
components.
