BRAKING ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS *
Group of supplementary systems which
help you to obtain optimum braking in
complete safety in emergency situa-
tions:
- anti-lock braking system (ABS),
- electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD),
-
emergency braking assistance (EBA).
Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution
Linked systems which improve the sta-
bility and manoeuvrability of your vehicle
when braking, in particular on poor or
slippery surfaces.
When braking in an emergency,
press very fi rmly without releasing
the pressure.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen, it indicates a malfunc-
tion of the anti-lock braking system
which could result in loss of control of
the vehicle when braking.
If this warning lamp comes on,
together with the STOP
and
ABS
warning lamps, accompa-
nied by an audible signal and
a message in the screen, it indicates a
malfunction of the electronic brake force
distribution which could result in loss of
control of the vehicle when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
In either case, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, enables
you to obtain the optimum braking pressure
more quickly, thus reducing the stopping
distance.
*
According to country.
Activation
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when there
is a risk of wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase
in braking effi ciency.
When braking in an emergency,
press fi rmly without releasing the
pressure.

SAFETY
97
The ESP/ASR systems offer ex-
ceptional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation
of the manufacturer's recommen-
dations regarding the wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and the
PEUGEOT assembly and opera-
tion procedures.
After an impact, have these sys-
tems checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a ve-
hicle which is bogged down, stuck in
snow, on soft ground, ...), it may be ad-
visable to deactivate the ASR and ESP
systems, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip.
)
Press the "ESP OFF"
button, located
in the centre of the dashboard.
If this warning lamp comes on on the in-
strument panel and the indicator lamp on
the button comes on, this indicates that the
ASR and ESP systems are deactivated.
Reactivation
These systems are reactivated automat-
ically each time the ignition is switched
back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).
)
Press the "ESP OFF"
button again
to reactivate them manually.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message on the multi-
function screen, this indicates a
malfunction of these systems.
Have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
TRAJECTORY CONTROL
SYSTEMS
Activation
These systems are activated automati-
cally each time the vehicle is started.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR) and
electronic stability programme
(ESP)
They come into operation in
the event of a grip or trajectory
problem.
This is indicated by fl ashing of
this warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel.
The anti-slip regulation (also known as
Traction Control) optimises traction to
prevent skidding of the wheels, by act-
ing on the brakes of the driving wheels
and on the engine.
The electronic stability programme acts
on the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to keep the vehicle on the
trajectory required by the driver, within
the limits of the laws of physics.

AIRBAGS
The airbags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants in
the event of violent collisions. They sup-
plement the action of the force-limiting
seat belts.
In this case, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side
impacts suffered in the impact detection
zones:
- in the event of a serious impact, the
airbags are deployed instantane-
ously and protect the occupants of
the vehicle; immediately after the
impact, the airbags defl ate rapidly
so that they do not hinder the visibil-
ity of the occupants or their possible
exit from the vehicle,
- in the event of a minor impact or
rear impact and in certain roll-over
conditions, the airbags will not be
deployed; the seat belt alone is suffi -
cient to provide maximum protection
in these situations.
The airbags do not operate when
the ignition is off.
This equipment only operates
once. If a second impact occurs
(during the same or a subsequent
accident), the airbag will not operate.
Impact detection zones
A.
Front impact zone.
B.
Side impact zone.
Front airbags
System which protects the head and
chest of the driver and front passenger
in the event of a front impact.
The driver's airbag is fi tted in the centre
of the steering wheel; the front passen-
ger's airbag is fi tted in the dashboard
above the glove box.
Operation
The airbags are deployed simultane-
ously, unless the passenger's front
airbag is deactivated, in the event of a
serious front impact applied to all or part
of the front impact zone A
, in the lon-
gitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the
front to the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag infl ates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
dashboard to cushion their forward
movement. The deployment of one or more
airbags is accompanied by a slight
discharge of harmless smoke and
a noise, due to the activation of the
pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated
in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sen-
sitive individuals may experience
some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may
result in a slight loss of hearing for
a short time.

SAFETY
104
For the airbags to be fully
effective, observe the following
safety rules:
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...). This could hamper the
operation of the airbags or injure the
occupants.
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 PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.
Even if all of the precautions men-
tioned are observed, a risk of injury
or of slight burns to the head, chest
or arms when an airbag is triggered
cannot be ruled out. Indeed, the bag
infl ates almost instantly (within a few
milliseconds) then defl ates within the
same time discharging the hot gas via
openings provided for this purpose.
*
According to country.
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.
Smoke as little as possible 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.
Knee airbag *
Do not sit with your knees any nearer to the steering wheel than necessary.
Lateral airbags
Only use approved covers on the seats, compatible with the deployment of the
lateral airbags. For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your
vehicle, contact a PEUGEOT dealer (see the "Practical information - Accessories"
section)
Do not fi x or attach anything to the seat backs. This could cause injury to the
chest or arms when the lateral airbag infl ates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.
