Electronic stability control
(ESC)
The ESC programme incorporates the following
systems:
-

a
nti-lock braking system (ABS) and
electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
These systems improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contribute towards improved control on
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
ABS prevents the wheels from locking during
emergency braking.
EBFD ensures total management of the braking
pressure, wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system permits the
optimum braking pressure to be reached
more quickly, therefore reducing the stopping
distance.
It triggers according to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by
a
reduction in the resistance of the pedal and
an increase in the effectiveness of the braking.
Traction control (TRC)
This system optimises traction in order to limit
wheel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.

em

ergency braking assistance (EBA),
-
t
raction control (TRC),
- d
ynamic stability control (DSC).
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
f ollowed by the vehicle and that required by the
driver, this system monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws
of physics.
Operation
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBD)
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal, it indicates an ABS system
malfunction that could cause control
of the vehicle to be lost during
braking.
Drive carefully at a
moderate speed and
contact a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Safety

Impact detection zones
A.Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
The 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.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience slight irritation.
The detonation noise associated with the
deployment of an airbag may result in
a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.
Front airbags
This system protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a severe frontal
impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the
head and chest.
The 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.
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.
The 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
for ward movement.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel it indicates
a
malfunction of the airbags. Contact
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible to
have the system checked. The
airbags may no longer be deployed
in the event of a
serious impact.
If this is the case, do not install a child seat nor
a llow a passenger to sit in the front passenger seat.
Lateral airbags
System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious side impact
in order to limit the risk of injury to the chest,
between the hip and the shoulder.
Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest
frame, door side.

Safety

59
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.
Curtain airbags
Do not attach anything or hang anything to
the roof, as this could cause head injuries
when the curtain airbag is deployed.
If fitted to your vehicle, do not remove the
grab handles installed on the roof, they
play a


part in securing the curtain airbags. Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment of the
lateral airbags. For information on the
product range of seat covers suitable for
your vehicle, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not attach anything to or hang anything
from the seat backrests (clothes, etc.) as
this could cause injuries to the thorax or
arm when the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.
General points relating to
child seats
The regulations on carrying children are
specific to each country. Refer to the
legislation in force in your country. -

S
tatistically, the safest seats in your
vehicle for carr ying children are the rear
seats.
-
A c
hild weighing less than 9 kg must
travel in the rear ward-facing position
both in the front and in the rear.
It is recommended that children travel on
the rear seats of your vehicle:
- "
rearward facing " up to the age of 3,
- "
forward facing " over the age of 3.
Ensure that the seat belt is positioned and
tightened correctly.
For child seats with a support leg, ensure
that the latter is in firm and steady contact
with the floor.
In the front: if necessary, adjust the
passenger seat.
At the rear: if necessary, adjust the
relevant front seat.
For maximum safety, please obser ve the
following recommendations:
-

I

n accordance with European regulations,
all children under the age of 12
or less
than one and a
half metres tall must
travel in approved child seats suited to
their weight , on seats fitted with a
seat belt
or ISOFIX mountings.

Operation
Going into engine STOP mode

instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
-

w

hen the vehicle is stationary, you put the
gearbox into neutral and release the clutch
pedal.
Stop & Starttime counters
A partial time counter counts the periods in
STOP mode during a journey. For your convenience during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a
few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
Stop & Start does not change features
of the vehicle such as braking, power
steering…
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
traffic stops (red lights, traffic jams, etc.). The
engine restarts automatically – START mode
– as soon as you want to move off. Restarting
occurs instantly, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary. -

System which prevents the
vehicle from exceeding the speed
programmed by the driver.
The limiter is switched on manually: this
can be done regardless of the vehicle speed.
However, if you are travelling at less than
18

mph (30 km/h), the programmed speed will
be set at 18
mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter is paused using the control.
The programmed speed can be exceeded
temporarily by pressing the accelerator firmly
beyond the point of resistance.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal until the set limit
speed has been reached again.
The programmed speed is erased when
the ignition is switched off.
The limiter cannot, under any
circumstances, replace respect for speed
limits, nor the vigilance of the driver.
Steering mounted control
The controls for this system are grouped
together on this steering mounted control.
1.Activation/deactivation of the limiter: by
pressing on the end of the control.
2. Programming the speed/decreasing the
value: by pressing the control downwards.
3. Resuming speed limitation/increasing the
value: by pressing the control upwards.
4. Pause limitation: by pulling the control
towards you.
