HANDBRAKE
Applying
When parking, pull the handbrake to
immobilise your vehicle. Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations
of the brake pedal.
In emergency braking, press
very irmly without releasing the
pressure.
The handbrake must not be
used to stop or brake while
the vehicle is moving.
Illumination of this warning
light and of the
STOP warn-
ing light, accompanied by
an audible signal (while the
vehicle is moving), indicates that the
handbrake is still applied or has not
been released fully.
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 on braking,
in particular 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, 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 and ABS warning
lights, 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.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
In an emergency, this system ena-
bles the optimum braking pressure
to be reached more quickly, thus re-
ducing the stopping distance.
It is triggered by the speed at which
the brake pedal is activated. The ef-
fect of this is a reduction in the resist-
ance of the pedal and an increase in
braking eficiency.
Releasing
Pull the handle and press the button
to release the handbrake.

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 al-
lows the directional stability of the ve-
hicle 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. Disarming the ASR/ESP systems
In exceptional conditions (starting a
vehicle which is bogged down, stuck
in snow, on soft ground, ...), it may
be advisable to disarm the ASR and
ESP systems, so that the wheels can
move freely and regain grip.
F
Press the "ESP OFF" switch, lo-
cated on the central section of the
fascia.
The warning light lashes if
the ASR or ESP is activated. The ESP/ASR systems offer
exceptional safety in normal
driving, but this should not
encourage the driver to take
extra risks or drive at high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation of
the manufacturer's recommenda-
tions regarding the wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and the
PEUGEOT assembly and operation
procedures.
After an impact, have the systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Operation of the ASR and ESP
systems When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the switch
light lashes and the warning
light comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the systems checked.
Operating check
The switch lights up and the
warning light comes on: the
ASR and ESP systems are
disarmed.
These are triggered again:
F automatically if the ignition is
switched off,
F automatically above 30 mph
(50 km/h),
F manually by pressing the switch
again.

CRUISE CONTROL
Cruise control enables the vehicle
to maintain a steady speed pro-
grammed by the driver.
In order for it to be memorised, the
vehicle speed must be greater than
25 mph (40 km/h), and fourth gear at
least must be engaged.
Operation
F Place switch 1 in the ON position.
A speed can be memorised.
F Place switch 1 in the OFF position
to cancel.
Changing a memorised speed
To memorise a speed higher than the
previous one:
F press button 3;
F release it when you have reached
the required speed.
To memorise a speed lower than the
previous one:
F press button 2;
F release it when you have reached
the required speed.
On a steep descent, the
cruise control will not be able
to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed
speed.
The cruise control cannot, in any
case, take the place of observance of
the speed restrictions, or of the vigi-
lance or responsibility of the driver.
Do not use the cruise control on slip-
pery roads or in heavy trafic.
Memorising a speed
As soon as you reach the chosen
speed, press button 2 or 3. This
memorises the speed.
Note: It is possible to accelerate and
drive momentarily at a speed greater
than the memorised speed. When
the accelerator pedal is released, the
vehicle will return to the memorised
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.
Cancelling the cruise control
F Place switch 1 in the OFF position
or switch off the ignition.

AIR BAGS
The air bags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
in the event of serious collisions.
They work in conjunction with the
pretensioning 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 minor collisions, for which the
seat belt is suficient to ensure maxi-
mum protection. The seriousness of
a collision depends on the nature of
the obstacle and the speed of the ve-
hicle at the moment of impact.
Air bags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
Note: the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant.
Front air bag fault
FRONT AIR BAGS
These are folded in the centre of the
steering wheel for the driver and in
the fascia for the front passenger.
They are deployed simultaneously,
except in cases where the passenger
air bag is disarmed.
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 be-
ing 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 re-
move the key keeping the switch
in this position.
The air bag warning light
on the instrument panel is
lit throughout the disarming
process.
If this warning light comes
on on the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible
signal, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer to have the system
checked.
