these systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
As soon as they detect a problem of grip or
trajectory, these systems act on the operation if

signalled by the flashing of this
indicator lamp in the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible signal.

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

dealers.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a P
e

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.

Never leave accumulations of snow or
any object projecting above the bonnet
or in front of the roof: this might fall into
the field of vision of the sensor and
generate a detection.
operating limits
the system only detects vehicles (cars, lorries)
that are stationary or moving in the same
direction as your vehicle. In difficult weather conditions (very
heavy rain, snow, fog, hail...), braking
distances increase, which can reduce
the ability of the system to avoid a
collision.
the

driver must therefore remain
particularly vigilant.
th

e system is not triggered or is interrupted if
the driver:
-

a
ccelerates strongly (even if the speed
limiter is on),
-

o
r turns the steering wheel suddenly
(avoiding manoeuvre).
Detection capability is less effective if:
-

y
ou are driving on roads with pronounced
bends and/or on roads in poor condition,
-

y
our vehicle is excessively loaded, as
this changes the horizontal attitude of the
vehicle.
-

y
our vehicle skids.It does not detect small vehicles
(bicycles, motorcycles), pedestrians or
animals, nor non-reflective stationary
objects.unwanted triggering of the system
It is possible for the system to detect a risk of
imminent collision and start working, in the
following conditions in particular:
-

d
etection of an object located close to the
edge of the road entering a corner (safety
barrier, lamp post or road sign),
-

d
etection of a structure located at the top
or bottom of a steep slope (advertising
hoarding, steet lighting),
-

d
etection of reflective objects (central
reservation...) in the road,
-

d
etection of the upper bar of a bridge or a
traffic light gantry,
-

p
assing a vehicle travelling in the other
direction in a corner,
-

p
assing a vehicle traveling in the other
direction, at a crossroads, when your
vehicle is turning left or right,
-

i
f the vehicle ahead of you sends up water
or snow,
-

i
f your vehicle stops very close to an
overhanging wall or other vehicles,
-

w
hen your vehicle closes rapidly on the
vehicle ahead,
-

i
f the vehicle is raised or lowered,

i

f the vehicle passes through a plastic curtain,

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.

Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,
object...), nor fix or attach anything close to
the inflation trajectory of the airbags; this
could cause injuries during their deployment.
Never modify the original definition of your
vehicle, particularly in the area directly
around the airbags.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
All work on the airbag system must be
carried out by a P
e
uge
Ot
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
ev

en if all of the precautions mentioned
are observed, a risk of injury or of minor
burns to the head, chest or arms when an
airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out.
t
h
e
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 airbags
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
dashboard.
Do not smoke as deployment of the airbags
can cause burns or the risk of injury from a
cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or
hit it violently.
Do not fit or attach anything to the steering
wheel or dashboard, this could cause
injuries with deployment of the airbags.
Advice
Lateral airbags
use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer.
For more information on accessories, refer
to the corresponding section.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs (clothing...).
t
h
is could cause injury
to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is
deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. th is
could cause injury to the head if the curtain
airbag is deployed.
If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove the
grab handles installed on the roof, they play
a part in securing the curtain airbags.
For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the safety recommendations below:

be fitted to "space-saver" type spare
wheels. Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to
avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and
the road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted
with alloy wheels, check that no part of
the chain or its fixings is in contact with
the wheel rim.
