Instrument panel display After switching on the ignition, three functions are shown in succession:- service indicator (see corresponding section),
- engine oil level indicator,- total distance recorder (total or trip distances).Note:
the total or trip distances are displayed for 30 seconds when the ignition
is switched off, on opening the driver's door, as well as on locking and unlocking the vehicle. Engine oil level When the ignition is switched on, the engine oil level is indicated for approximate- ly 10 seconds, after the servicing information.
Maximum oil level If the flashing of the six squares is confirmed by checking using the dipstick, a surplus of oilcan cause damage to the engine.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer without delay. Lack of oil Flashing of the six segments and "min" on the display indicate a lack of oil which can causedamage to the engine. If the lack of oil is confirmed by checking using the dipstick, it is essential to top up the level. Oil level gauge fault Flashing of the six segments indicates a fault in the oil level gauge. There is a risk the engine will be damaged.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Engine oil temperature indicator light When the engine is running, it indi- cates the oil temperature:
- When the needle is in zone
(C),
the temperature is correct,
- When the needle is in zone (D),
the temperature is too high. To lower the oil temperature, reduceyour speed.
The level indicated when checking using the dipstick is only correct ifthe vehicle has been on level ground, with the engine stopped, for morethan 10 minutes.

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 theintroduction of pre-tensioning andforce-limiting front seat belts.Depending on the seriousness ofthe impact, the pre-tensioning sys-tem instantly tightens the seat beltsfirmly against the body of the occu-pant. The pre-tensioning seat belts are armed when the ignition is on. The force-limiting device reduces the pressure of the seat belt againstthe occupant's body in the event ofan accident. 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 as closeto the body as possible. Depending on the nature
and the seriousness of the impact, the pre-tensioners may be trig-gered before and independently oftriggering 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.

Operating programmes
You have a choice of three operating programmes:
- Autoadaptive (normal).
- Sport.
- Snow.One press on button
Aor Bwill
select Sport or Snow respectively. The selection is displayed on theinstrument panel. Pressing the but-ton a second time will return to theautoadaptive (normal) programme. Autoadaptive programme (normal) Gear changes are carried out on the basis of various parameters, suchas:
- driving style,
- road characteristics,
- vehicle load.The gearbox selects the most suit- able programme from those in thememory for the current driving con-ditions. Sport programme The Sport programme automatically favours more dynamic driving. Snow Programme In position
D, the Snow programme
provides smooth driving suited to slippery roads in order to improve
traction and stability. Starting is in2nd gear and changing down is at
low engine speeds. Special operating features
- During prolonged braking, the gearbox changes down automati-
cally, so as to provide efficientengine braking.
- If you take your foot off the accel- erator suddenly (when you aretaken by surprise, for example),the gearbox will not change up,
so as to improve safety.
- When the engine is cold, the gearbox automatically selects aspecial programme that enablesthe engine to reach its ideal tem-perature more quickly in order todecrease pollution.
Kickdown For immediate maximum accelera-
tion without touching the gear lever,press the accelerator pedal down as
far as it will go. The gearbox willchange down automatically or stayin the gear selected, up to maximumengine speed.Any disruption of the system is signalled by the simultane-ous flashing of the Sport andSnow lights on the instrument
panel. In such a case, the gearbox
will operate in downgrade mode. Youmay feel a substantial knock whenreverse is selected from Pto R or N
to R(without any risk of damage to
the gearbox). Do not exceed 60 mph (100km/h).Contact a PEUGEOT dealer without
delay. When the engine is idling with the car
in gear, the car will move even with-out you 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 Runless the vehi-
cle is stationary.Do not leave children inside the vehi- cle unsupervised when the engine isrunning.

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 incases where the passenger air bag isdisarmed.
Front air bag fault
If this warning light comeson, accompanied by anaudible signal and the mes-sage "Air bag fault" on the
multifunction display, con-
tact a PEUGEOT dealer to have thesystem checked.
AIR BAGS The air bags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occu-pants in the event of serious colli-
sions. They work in conjunctionwith the force-limiting seat belts. The electronic detectors register and analyse any abrupt decelera-tion of the vehicle: if the triggeringthreshold is reached, the air bagsinflate instantly and protect theoccupants of the vehicle. Immediately after the impact, the air bags deflate rapidly so that they donot hinder the visibility of the occu-pants nor their exit if necessary fromthe vehicle. The air bags are not deployed in the case of collisions which are not seri-
ous, for which the seat belt is suffi-cient to ensure maximum protection.The seriousness of a collisiondepends on the nature of the obsta-cle and the speed of the vehicle atthe moment of the 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 pas-senger air bag when you install arear-facing child seat on the frontpassenger seat. 
With the ignition switched off, insert the key into the passengerair bag disarming switch 1, turn it
to the "OFF"position, then
remove the key keeping the slotin this position.
The air bag warning light onthe instrument panel is litthroughout the disarmingprocess.

In the
"OFF" position, the passen-
ger air bag will not be triggered in the event of an impact. As soon as the child seat is removed, turn the air bag slot to the"ON" position to re-activate the air
bag and thus ensure the safety ofyour passenger in the event of animpact. Operating check This is confirmed by an indicator light, accompanied by an audiblesignal and a message on the multi-
function display. With the ignition on (2nd notch), illumi- nation of this warning light accompa-nied by an audible signal and the mes-sage "Passenger air bag disarmed"
on the multifunction display, indicatesthat the passenger air bag is disarmed(switch in the "OFF"position SIDE AIRBAGS * These are incorporated into the frame of the front seat back, on thedoor side. They are deployed independently of each other depending on which sidethe collision occurs, in collisionswhich could cause injury to thechest, the abdomen or the head.
Operating check
This is confirmed by an indicatorlight on the instrument panel. It comes on for six seconds, each time the ignition is switched on. If the indicator light:
- does not light up when the ignition is switched on, or
- does not go out after six seconds, or
- flashes for five minutes then stays on,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
