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" 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.

Driving safety
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 (EBA)
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. 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.
SAFETY

127
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.

Page 134 of 176

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR) AND
DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESP)
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.Operation of the ASR and
ESP systems
The warning light flashes if the
ASR or ESP is activated. 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 switch, situated under the steering
wheel on the left of the fascia.
The indicator light comes on
accompanied by the message
"ESP/ASR deactivated" : the
ESP and ASR systems no longer
act on the engine operation, but continue to
act on the brakes.
They engage again:  automatically above 30 mph (50 kmh),
 manually by pressing the switch again.
Operating check
When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the indicator light
comes on, accompanied by an
audible signal and the message "ESP/ASR
not functioning" on the display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
system checked.
Driving safetyThe 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 fitting and repair
procedures within the PEUGEOT network
are observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
Sensors check the tyre pressure during
driving, and trigger a warning in the event of
a malfunction (speed greater than approx.
15 mph [25 km/h]) or puncture.
An outline representing one or more wheels
flashing indicates the location of the wheel
or wheels concerned.Flat tyre
The SERVICE warning light
comes on, accompanied by the
message "Tyre(s) deflated" , an
outline on the display, and an audible signal.
Check the tyre pressure as soon as
possible.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 being displayed.
Sensor(s) not detected
The SERVICE warning light
comes on, accompanied by
the message "X tyre pressure
sensor(s) missing" , an outline on the
display and an audible signal.
Under-inflation detection is absent from one
(or several) tyre(s).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace the
faulty sensor(s).
This message is also displayed when
one of the tyres is away from the
vehicle (being repaired) or when a wheel
without a sensor is fitted. All repairs and changing of tyres on a
wheel fitted with this system must be
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer.
The tyre under-inflation detection system
is a driving aid which does not take the
place of vigilance or the responsibility of
the driver.
This system does not remove the need to
have the tyre pressure checked regularly
(including the spare wheel), to ensure that
the dynamic performance of the vehicle
remains at its best and to avoid premature
wear of the tyres, in particular in the case of
arduous driving (heavy load, high speed).
The system may temporarily be disturbed by
radio broadcasts on a frequency close to it.

Puncture
The STOP warning light
comes on, accompanied by
the message "Punctured
tyre(s)" , an outline on the display and an
audible signal.
Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden
movement of the steering wheel and the
brakes.
Change the damaged (punctured or very
deflated) tyre, and have the tyre pressure
checked as soon as possible.

Towing a trailer
130
TOWING A TRAILER, CAR AVAN, BO AT, ETC.
For more information about
weights, refer to the Petrol or Diesel
"Dimensions, weights and towed loads"
section of the "Technical Data" chapter.
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.
Dimension A =
0.96 m

Page 137 of 176

ACCESSORIES
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.Brakes:
towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually.
Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed.
Towbar
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars, which have been tested
for endurance from the design stage of your
vehicle.
Towing equipment must be fitted in
accordance with the manufacturer ’s
instructions, with particular attention to the
towing capacities of your vehicle, the load
towed, the nose weight and the electrical
connection. As this fitting should be carried
out by a professional, we recommend that
you entrust the fitting of this equipment to a
PEUGEOT dealer.
When using a trailer connection, you must
add a fuse. Refer to the "Changing a fuse"
section of the "Troubleshooting" chapter. Lighting
Manual adjustment
Adjust your headlamps so as not to dazzle
other road users.
Check the electrical signalling of the trailer.
Automatic adjustment
For vehicles with Xenon bulbs, this system
automatically corrects the height of the
beam, whatever the load of the vehicle. The
driver is then assured of having optimum
lighting and not causing a nuisance to other
road users.Towing a trailer

In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep slope in high temperatures), the
engine automatically limits its power. In this
case, cutting off the air conditioning allows
the engine power to be recovered, and
therefore the towing speed to be significantly
increased (approximately 12 mph [20 km/h]
more). Sequential control of the gearbox
may also become unavailable.
If the coolant temperature warning light
comes on, stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see section on "The
identification features of your vehicle") and
of the trailer, observing the recommended
pressure.
For further information regarding
manual adjustment of the headlamps,
refer to the "Practical information" section of
the "Ergonomics and Comfort" chapter.
Bicycle carrier
If you fit a bicycle carrier on the tailgate,
deactivate the rear wiper from the display’s
configuration menu.
