Air bags
138Good practice
If your vehicle is fitted with a front passenger
air bag, side air bags or curtain air bags,
observe this good practice.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the air bags (a child, pet,
object...).
This could hamper the operation of the air
bags or injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the air bag
systems checked.
All work on the air bag system is strictly
forbidden unless it is carried out by qualified
personnel of the PEUGEOT network.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are
observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns
to the head, chest or arms when an air bag
is triggered cannot be ruled out. In fact, the
bag inflates almost instantly (within a few
milliseconds) then deflates within the same
time discharging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.Front air bags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by its spokes or resting your hands on the
centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the
fascia.
Smoke as little as possible as deployment of
the air bags can cause burns or the risk of
injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel
or hit it violently.
Side air bags
Only put approved covers on the seats.
These will not hinder inflation of the side air
bags. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fix or glue anything to the seat backs.
This could cause injury to the chest or arms
when the side air bag inflates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.
Curtain air bags
Do not fix or glue anything to the roof. This
could cause injury to the head when the
curtain air bag inflates.
Do not remove the grab handles installed
on the roof, they play a part in securing the
curtain air bags.

Side air bags
If fitted on your vehicle, this is a system
which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious side
impact in order to limit the risk of injury to
the chest.
Each side air bag is incorporated in the front
seat back frame, on the door side.
Activation
It is triggered unilaterally in the event of a
serious side impact applied to all or part
of the side impact zone
B, perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle
on a horizontal plane and directed from the
outside towards the inside of the vehicle.
The side air bag inflates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
corresponding door trim pad. on a horizontal plane and directed from the
outside towards the inside of the vehicle.
The curtain air bag inflates between the
front or rear occupant of the vehicle and the
windows.
Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
In the event of a minor impact or bump
on the side of the vehicle or if the
vehicle rolls over, the air bag may not
be triggered.
The air bag is not triggered in the event of a
rear or front collision.
Operating fault
If this warning light comes
on on the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the display,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer to
have the system checked. The air bags
may no longer be triggered in the event of a
serious impact.
Curtain air bags
If fitted on your vehicle, this is a system
which protects the driver and passengers
(with the exception of the centre seats of
rows 2 and 3) in the event of a serious
side impact in order to limit the risk of head
injuries.
Each curtain air bag is incorporated in the
pillars and the upper part of the passenger
compartment.
Activation
It is triggered at the same time as the
corresponding side air bag in the event of
a serious side impact applied to all or part
of the side impact zone
B, perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle

CHILD SAFETY
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:
- in accordance with Directive 2003/20, all
children under the age of 12 or less than
one metre fifty tall 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. "Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, it
is essential that the passenger air bag is
disarmed. Otherwise, the child would risk
being seriously injured or killed if the air bag
were to inflate.
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, leave
the passenger air bag armed.
INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT USING A THREE POINT SEAT BELT
Intermediate longitudinal position
If your vehicle is fitted with a passenger seat
with longitudinal adjustment, adjust it to the
intermediate longitudinal position, seat back
upright.
The rules for transporting children are
specific to each country. Consult the current
legislation in your country.
Please consult the list of seats approved
in your country. The isofix mountings, the
rear seats, the passenger air bag and the
disarming of this air bag depend on the
version sold.

"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS
These seats are fitted with ISOFIX
mountings.
These are two rings located between the
seat back and the seat cushion.
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two
locks which are secured easily on these
rings.
This ISOFIX mounting system guarantees
reliable, safe and fast fitting of the child seat
in your vehicle.

Child safety
146ADVICE ON CHILD SEATSOtherwise, 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" if fitted on your vehicle.
Take care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third if fitted on your vehicle.
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.
If fitted on your vehicle, 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.
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.

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...
Refer to the administrative documents
(V5, ...) or to the Petrol or Diesel
"Dimensions, weights and towed loads"
section of chapter 9.
Driving advice
A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in
neutral. Distribution of loads:
distribute the load in
the trailer so that the heaviest loads are as
close as possible to the axle and the nose
weight is close to the maximum authorised
without, however, exceeding it. Cooling:
towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.
