ISOFIX MOUNTINGS
Available on the front passenger seat, the Isofix mountings allow for fitting of a
special child seat , sold by
PEUGEOT dealers. The locks incorporated in the child seat fit onto the Isofix mountings and ensuresafe, reliable and fast assembly
.
In the front ,the child seat must be fit-
ted in the "rear facing" position for chil-dren from birth to 29lbs (13 kg): front
seat as far forward as possible so
that the body of the child seat is incontact with or as close as possible tothe instrument panel. In this case, it is essential to disarm the passenger air bag. The child would risk being killed or seriously injured if the air bag wereto inflate. In exceptional cases, the child seat may be fitted in the "forwards facing"position if the rear seats are alreadyoccupied by other children. In thiscase, use the Isofix mountings, thechild seat strap and the seat belt andadjust the passenger seat to the most
rearward position. The passenger airbag may be left active. The special approved child seat is the
Isofix KIDDY seat. It can be used inthe "rear facing" position from birth to29 lbs (13 kg) and "forwards facing"from 20 to 40 lbs (9 to 18 kg). This seat can also be used on seats not fitted with Isofix mountings: it isthen compulsory to attach it to thevehicle's seat using the three-pointseat belt. Follow the instructions for fitting the child seat given in the instruc-tion booklet.

SEAT BELTS
To lock the seat belts Pull the strap, then insert the buckle into the stalk. Pre-tensioning and force-limitingfront seat belts Safety in the event of a frontal impact has been improved by the introductionof pre-tensioning and force-limitingfront seat belts. Depending on theseriousness of the impact, the pre-ten-sioning system instantly tightens theseat belts firmly against the body ofthe occupant. The pre-tensioning seat belts are armed when the ignition is on. The force-limiting device reduces the pressure of the seat belt against theoccupant's body in the event of anaccident. Rear seat belts The rear seats are fitted with two three-point inertia reel seat belts.
To be effective, a seat belt must be tightened asclose to the body as pos-sible.
Depending on the nature and theseriousness of the impact, the pre-tensioners may be triggeredbefore and independently of trig-gering of the air bags. In all cases, the air bag warning light on the instrument panelcomes on. Following a collision, have the sys- tem checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer. The system has been designed to be fully operational for ten years.
For greater safety, have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer within tenyears following the initial purchaseof the vehicle.

Nor P. Press the brake to exit
position P. Stopped or parked Always leave the lever in position Pwhen you get out of your vehicle.
If not, a buzzer will sound when you open the driver's door. Positions of the selector lever These positions are displayed on the instrument panel. P. Park: use with the handbrake.
R. Reverse: this must only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary, engine at idle.
N. Neutral: if Nis engaged by mistake while the car is moving, allow the engine
to return to idle before engaging a new forward gear.
D. Drive: in this position, the four gears change automatically. The gear change
points vary depending on the programme selected.
3. Automatic changing of the first three gears only. Select this position when you notice frequent changes between third and fourth gear (town driving or on winding roads).
2. Automatic changing of the first two gears only. This position is particularly suitable for mountain roads, when going uphill (to make the best use of the engine's power) and downhill (engine braking).

Operating programmes
You have a choice of three operating pro- grammes:
Ð Autoadaptive (normal).
Ð Sport.
Ð Snow.One press on button
Aor Bwill select
Sport or Snow respectively. The selec- tion is displayed on the instrumentpanel. Pressing the button a secondtime will return to the autoadaptive(normal) programme. Autoadaptive programme (normal) Gear changes are carried out on the basis of various parameters, such as:
Ð driving style,
Ð road characteristics,
Ð vehicle load.The gearbox selects the most suitable programme from those in the memoryfor the current driving conditions. Sport programme The Sport programme automatically favours more dynamic driving. Snow Programme In position
D, the Snow programme
provides smooth driving suited to slip- pery roads in order to improve traction
and stability. Starting is in 2nd gear
and changing down is at low enginespeeds. Special operating features
Ð During prolonged braking, the gear- box changes down automatically, so
as to provide efficient engine braking.
Ð If you take your foot off the acceler- ator suddenly (when you are takenby surprise, for example), the gear-box will not change up, so as to
improve safety.
Ð When the engine is cold, the gearbox automatically selects a special pro-gramme that enables the engine toreach its ideal temperature morequickly in order to decrease pollution.
Kickdown For immediate maximum acceleration
without touching the gear lever, pressthe accelerator pedal down as far as it
will go. The gearbox will change downautomatically or stay in the gearselected, up to maximum enginespeed.Any disruption of the system is signalled by the simultane-ous flashing of the Sport andSnow lights on the instru-
ment panel. In such a case, the gear-box will operate in downgrade mode.
You may feel a substantial knock whenreverse is selected from Pto Ror Nto
R (without any risk of damage to the
gearbox). Do not exceed 100km/h.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer without
delay. When the engine is idling with the car
in gear, the car will move even withoutyou accelerating. Do not accelerate while a gear is being selected, when the vehicle is
stationary.
When stationary, have your foot on the
brake pedal when selecting a gear. Do not accelerate in gear with the brakes on. If work needs to be done with the engine running, apply the handbrakeand select position P.
Do not change down to brake on slip-pery roads. Never select position Nwhen the
vehicle is moving.Never engage Por Rif the vehicle is
not stationary.Do not leave children inside the vehicle unsupervised when theengine is running.

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 caseswhere the passenger air bag is disarmed.
Front air bag fault If this warning light comes on, accompanied by an audiblesignal and the message
"Air
bag fault" on the multifunction dis-
play, contact a PEUGEOT dealer tohave the system checked.
AIR BAGS The air bags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occupantsin the event of serious collisions.They work in conjunction with theforce-limiting seat belts. The electronic detectors register and analyse any abrupt deceleration ofthe vehicle: if the triggering thresholdis reached, the air bags inflate instant-ly and protect the occupants of thevehicle. Immediately after the impact, the air bags deflate rapidly so that they do nothinder the visibility of the occupantsnor their exit if necessary from thevehicle. The air bags are not deployed in the case of collisions which are not seri-
ous, for which the seat belt is sufficient
to ensure maximum protection. Theseriousness of a collision depends onthe nature of the obstacle and thespeed of the vehicle at the moment ofthe collision. Air bags only operate when the ignition is switched on. Note:
the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant. Disarming the passenger air bag*
To ensure the safety of your child, it is essential to disarm the passengerair bag when you install a rear-facingchild seat on the front passengerseat. 
With the ignition switched off, insert the key into the passenger air bagdisarming switch 1, turn it to the
"OFF" position, then remove the
key keeping the slot in this position.
The air bag warning light onthe instrument panel is litthroughout the disarmingprocess.
* According to destination.
