BRAKING ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS*
Group of supplementary systems which help you to obtain optimum braking in complete safety in emergency situations:
- the anti-lock braking system (ABS),- the electronic brake force distribution (EBFD),- the emergency braking assistance (EBA).
Anti-lock braking system and electronic brake force distribution
Linked systems which improve the stability and manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking, in particular on poor or slippery surfaces.
Operating fault
If this warning light comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the multifunction display, it indi-cates a malfunction of the anti-lock brak-ing system which could result in loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
If this warning light comes on, together with the STOP and ABS warning lights, accompa-nied by an audible signal and a message on the multifunction display, it indicates a malfunction of the electron-ic 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 both cases, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, ena-bles 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 efficiency.

!
Disarming
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft ground, ...), it may be advisable to disarm the ASR and ESP systems, so that the wheels can move freely and regain grip.
 Press the "ESP OFF" button, locat-ed in the centre of the fascia.
If this warning light comes on on the instru-ment panel and the indicator light on the button comes on, this indicates that the ASR and ESP systems are disarmed.
Reactivation
These systems are reactivated automat-ically each time the ignition is switched back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h) (ex-cept in the case of the 1.6 l 16V THP 175 bhp petrol engine).
 Press the "ESP OFF" button again to reactivate them manually.
Operating fault
If this warning light comes on, accompanied by an audible sig-nal and a message on the mul-tifunction display, this indicates a malfunction of these systems.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the systems checked.
TRAJECTORY CONTROL
SYSTEMS
Associated systems which guarantee the directional stability of the vehicle within the limits of the laws of physics:
- the anti-skid regulation (ASR),- the electronic stability programme (ESP).
Activation
These systems are activated auto-matically each time the vehicle is started.
Anti-skid regulation and electronic stability programme
The anti-skid regulation optimises trac-tion to prevent skidding of the wheels, by acting 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.
They come into operation in the event of a grip or trajectory problem.
This is indicated by flashing of this warning light on the instru-ment panel.

SEAT BELTS
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fitted with a pre-tensioning and force limiting system.
This system improves safety in the front seats in the event of front impacts. De-pending on the severity of the impact, the pretensioning system instantly tight-ens the seat belts against the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the seat belt on the chest of the oc-cupant, increasing his protection.
On the 5-door and GTi versions, a slid-er, fitted on the seat belt, makes it pos-sible to support the buckle as close as possible to the strap return.

 Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly by pulling the strap.
 To lower the attachment point, squeeze control A and slide it down-wards.
 To raise the attachment point, slide control A upwards.
When the ignition is switched on, this warning light comes on on the instrument panel if the driver* and/or the front passenger has not fastened his seat belt.
Above approximately 12 mph (20 km/h) and for two minutes, this warning light flashes accompanied by an audible sig-nal of increasing volume. When the two minutes have elapsed, this warning light remains on until the driver* and/or the front passenger fastens his seat belt.
* According to country.

AIR BAGS
System designed to maximise the safety of the occupants (with the exception of the rear centre passenger) in the event of violent collisions. It supplements the action of the force-limiting seat belts.
If a collision occurs, the electronic de-tectors record and analyse the front and side impacts sustained in the impact detection zones:
- in the case of a serious impact, the air bags are triggered instantly and pro-tect the occupants of the vehicle (with the exception of the rear centre pas-senger); immediately after the impact, the air bags deflate rapidly so that they do not hinder visibility or the exit of the occupants,- in the case of a minor or rear impact or in certain roll-over conditions, the air bags will not be triggered; the seat belt alone is sufficient to provide opti-mum protection in these situations.
Front air bags
System which protects the driver and front passenger in the event of a seri-ous front impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the head and chest.
The driver’s air bag is incorporated in the centre of the steering wheel; the front passenger’s air bag is incorporat-ed in the fascia above the glove box.
Activation
The air bags are triggered simultane-ously, unless the passenger’s front air bag is disarmed, in the event of a seri-ous front impact applied to all or part of the front impact zone A, in the longitu-dinal centreline of the vehicle on a hori-zontal plane and directed from the front to the rear of the vehicle.
The front air bag inflates between the front occupant of the vehicle and the fascia to cushion his forward move-ment.
Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.

Operating fault
If this warning light comes on on the instrument panel, accompa-nied by an audible warning and a message on the multifunction display, contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system checked. The air bags may no longer be triggered in the event of a serious impact.
According to version, this warn-ing light comes on either on the instrument panel or on the central bar when the ignition is on and until the air bag is re-armed.
Reactivation
When you remove the child seat, turn switch 1 to the "ON" position to re-arm the air bag and so guarantee the safety of your front passenger in the event of an impact.
Deactivation
Only the front passenger’s air bag can be disarmed:
with the ignition off, insert the key in the passenger air bag disarming switch 1,
 turn it to the "OFF" position,
 then, remove the key keeping the switch in this position.
