AIR BAGS* The airbag system has been desi- gned to maximise the safety of theoccupants in the event of seriouscollisions. It works in conjunctionwith the seat belts. The electronic detectors register and analyse any abrupt deceleration ofthe vehicle; if the triggering thresholdis reached the airbags inßate instant-ly and come between the occupantsand the vehicle. Immediately after the impact, the air-
bags deßate rapidly, so that they donot hinder the visibility of the occu-pants and their exit if necessary fromthe vehicle. The airbags are not deployed in the case of collisions which are notserious, for which the seat belt is suf-Þcient to ensure maximum protec-tion. The seriousness of a collisiondepends on the nature of the obs-tacle and the speed of the vehicle atthe moment of the collision. Airbags only operate when the ignition is switched on. Note: the gas escaping from the
cushion can be a minor irritant. 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 airbag isdisarmed), for frontal impacts wherethere is a risk of injury to the head orchest.
- Remove the ignition key, insert it
into the passenger airbag switch 1
and turn it to the ÒOFFÓposition.
- One of these two warning lights* on the instrumentpanel is lit throughout thedisarming process.
In the ÒOFFÓ position, the passenger
airbag will not be triggered in theevent of an impact. As soon as you remove the rearwards-facing child seat from thefront passenger seat, turn the airbagswitch to the ÒONÓ position, to armthe airbag and thus ensure thesafety of your passenger in animpact. * According to speciÞcation.
Disarming the passenger airbag*
To ensure the safety of your child, it is essential to disarm the pas-senger airbag when you install arearwards-facing child seat on thefront passenger seat.

Passenger airbag precautions
Vehicle fitted with a passenger airbag disarming switch:
- disarm the airbagif you install arearwards-facingchild seat on thefront passengerseat,
- arm the airbagwhen you trans-port an adult onthe front pas-senger seat.
Vehicle not fitted with a passengerairbag disarming switch:
- do not install a rear-wards-facing child seaton the front passengerseat.
Never place your feet or any objecton the fascia. Front* and side* airbag operational check Operation of the airbags is indicated by the warning light on the instrument panel. If the passenger airbag is armed (passenger airbag switch in the
"ON"posi-
tion), the warning light will come on for six seconds when the ignition is switched on. If the warning light:
- does not come on when the ignition is switched on or,
- does not switch off after six seconds or,
- ßashes for Þve minutes then remains on.
Consult your PEUGEOT dealer. SIDE AIR BAGS* The side airbags are incorporated in the backrest frames of the front seat, on the
side nearest the door. They are triggered independently of each other depending on the side on which the collision occurs, in the case of side impacts which could cause injury to the thorax,the abdomen and the head. * According to speciÞcation

CHECKING THE LEVELS 1. Air Þlter The air filter element must be changed at the recommendedintervals. If you drive in a dustyatmosphere, change it twice asoften. Follow the recommendations given in the maintenance schedule. 2. Brake ßuid The level must always be above the
DANGER mark on the reservoir. Inthe event of a signiÞcant drop in theßuid level, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer immediately. Use fluids
approved by the manufacturer,which conform to DOT 3 or DOT 4standards. 3. Battery
At the beginning of winter, have the battery checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer. In summer (30¡C and above) or if the battery is in heavy use, checkthe level of electrolyte; it must coverthe separator plates at all times. If
necessary, top up with distilled
water.4. Power steering* When the engine is cold, the level must always be above the MINmark, close to the MAX mark. 5. Dipstick Check the oil level on ßat ground, with the engine cold and preferably
before the Þrst journey of the day. Never exceed the maximum level.
Check the level regularly.
6. Topping up with oil
Your oil must be changed in accor- dance with the maintenance sche-dule. The oil must be topped up between oil changes. Regularly check and top-up the oil level. Maximum oil consumption is 0.5 litres per 600 miles (1000 km). 7. Coolant Engine cold: the coolant level must be between the min and max marksin the expansion chamber with the
cap removed. To close, turn the capto the second notch*.
Cooling circuit Always use the coolant which is approved by the manufacturer
(PROCOR TM108 / GLYSANTING33 or REVKOGEL 2000). If this isnot possible, top up with distilledwater and have the protection level
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. When the engine is hot, the coolant temperature is regulated by the fan.As the fan can operate with theignition key removed, and as thecooling circuit is pressurised,
do
not carry out any work for atleast an hour after switching offthe engine .
Note: the coolant does not need tobe renewed.
8. Front/rear screen and headlamp wash reservoir*
For optimum cleaning quality and
for your safety, it is best to use clea-ning products approved by PEU-GEOT (capacity 4.5 litres withoutheadlamp wash, 5.5 litres withheadlamp wash). * According to speciÞcation

Battery
To charge the battery with a battery
charger:
Ð Disconnect the battery starting with the negative ( Ð) terminal.
Ð
Follow the instructions for use given
by the charger manufacturer.
Ð Re-connect starting with the positive (+) terminal.
Ð Check that the terminals and posts are clean. If they arecovered with sulphation (a whiteor green deposit), undo them andclean them. To start and charge the batteryfrom another battery: Make sure that the connections are correct:
- Connect the red cable to the
positive (+) terminals of both bat- teries.
- Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative ( Ð
)
terminal of the auxiliary battery.
- Connect the other end of the green or black cable to an earthpoint on the broken down vehicleas far as possible from the
battery.
Operate the starter and allow theengine to run.
Wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables. It is advisable to disconnect the battery if the vehicle is to be outof use for more than one month.
P R A C T I C A L I N F O R M AT I O N91
Ð Do not disconnect the terminals while the engine is running.
Ð Do not recharge batteries without Þrst disconnecting theterminals.
Ð
A permanent electrical supplyis necessary for operation ofthe electronic systems. If thebattery is disconnected, switchon the ignition and wait
10 seconds before starting.
However, if minor disturbancesoccur following disconnection
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
