Under-inflation detection
the system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed.
th
e system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.
th
e under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance
on the part of the driver.
th
is system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances
and causes premature tyre wear,
particularly under arduous condition
(high loading, high speed, long journey).
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
th
e inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure label.
For more information on the
identification markings, refer to the
corresponding section.ty re pressures should be checked
when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle
stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of
less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate
speeds).
Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to
the pressures shown on the label. Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.

exterior lighting control stalk
Main lighting
the various front and rear lamps of the vehicle
are designed to adapt the driver's visibility
progressively according to the ambient light
level and weather:
-
s
idelamps, to be seen,
-
d
ipped beam headlamps to see without
dazzling other drivers,
-
m
ain beam headlamps to see clearly when
the road is clear.
Additional lighting
Other lamps are provided to meet the
requirements of particular driving conditions:
-
a
rear foglamp,
-
f
ront foglamps,
-
d
aytime running lamps to be more visible
during the day. In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal sur face of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps
is normal; it disappears after the lamps
have been on for a few minutes.travelling abroad
If using your vehicle in a country that
drives on the other side of the road, the
headlamps must be adjusted to avoid
dazzling on-coming drivers.

foglamp In good or rainy weather, both day
and night, the front foglamps and the
rear foglamp are prohibited. In these
situations, the power of their beams
may dazzle other drivers.
t
he

only be used in fog or snow.
In these weather conditions, it is your
responsibility to switch on the foglamps
and dipped beam headlamps manually
as the sunshine sensor may detect
sufficient light.
Do not forget to switch off the front
foglamps and the rear foglamp when
they are no longer necessary.
Switching off the lamps when
the ignition is switched off
On switching off the ignition, all of the
lamps turn off immediately, except for
dipped beam if guide-me-home lighting
is activated.
Switching on the lamps
after the ignition is
switched off
to reactivate the lighting control, rotate
the ring to the "0" position - lamps off,
then to the desired position.
On opening the driver's door a
temporary audible signal warns the
driver that the lighting is on.
When the headlamps switch off with automatic
illumination of headlamps (A

the tRC and DSC systems offer
increased safety in normal driving, but
should not encourage the driver to take
extra risks or drive at high speed.
th
e correct operation of these
systems depends on observation of
the manufacturer's recommendations
regarding the wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components, the electronic
components and the assembly and
repair procedures used by P
e
uge
Ot
dealers.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a P

Ot
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate the
DSC and
t
R
C systems, so that the wheels can
spin freely and regain grip.

Airbags
Designed to contribute towards the safety of
the occupants in the event of violent collisions.
th
e airbags supplement the action of the force-
limiting seat belts.
If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side impacts
sustained in the impact detection zones:
-
i
n the case of a serious impact, the airbags
are deployed instantly and contribute
towards better protection of the occupants
of the vehicle; immediately after the impact,
the airbags deflate rapidly so that they
do not hinder visibility or the exit of the
occupants,
-
i
n the case of a minor or rear impact or in
certain roll-over conditions, the airbags
may not be deployed; the seat belt alone
contributes towards providing your
protection in these situations.
th
e airbags do not operate when the
ignition is switched off.
th
e deployment of an airbag is
accompanied by a slight emission
of smoke and a noise, due to the
detonation of the pyrotechnic charge
incorporated in the system.
th
is smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience slight
irritation.
th
e detonation noise associated with
the deployment of an airbag may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time.
th
is equipment will only deploy once.
If a second impact occurs (during the
same or a subsequent accident), the
airbag will not be deployed again.
Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. S ide impact zone.
Front airbags
Deployment
the airbags are deployed, except the
passenger's front airbag if it is deactivated, in the
event of a serious front impact to all or part of the
front impact zone A , in the longitudinal centreline
of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed
from the front to the rear of the vehicle.
th
e front airbag inflates between the thorax and
head of the front occupant of the vehicle and the
steering wheel, driver's side, and the dashboard,
passenger's side to cushion their forward
movement. System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious front impact
in order to limit the risk of injury to the head and
thorax.
th
e driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the
steering wheel; the front passenger's airbag is
fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.

this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal.
th

of the range.
You have approximately 5 litres remaining.
In certain driving conditions and depending on
the engine, the distance which can be travelled
with the fuel remaining may be less than
30
miles (50 km).
to r

pen the fuel filler flap.
If you run out of fuel, the emission
control system warning lamp may come
on in the instrument panel. It will go off
automatically after the engine has been
started a few times. Refuelling must only be done with the engine
stopped
and the ignition switched off (ignition
switch in the " L
o
C
K" position or "
oFF "
m o d e).
th
e capacity of the fuel tank is approximately 35 litres.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
be registered by the fuel gauge.
A label on the inside of the flap reminds you
which type of fuel to use.
th
ere may be an inrush of air when removing
the filler cap.
t
h
is vacuum is per fectly normal
and results from the sealing of the fuel system.
