TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
System which automatically checks the
pressure of the tyres while driving.
All repairs and changing of
tyres on a wheel fi tted with this
system must be carried out by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you install
a wheel which is not detected by
your vehicle (example: fi tting of snow
tyres), you must have the system re-
initialised by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.

This system does not avoid
the need to have the tyre pres-
sures checked regularly (refer
to the "Identifi cation markings" sec-
tion) to ensure that the optimum dy-
namic performance of the vehicle is
maintained and prevent premature
wear of the tyres, particularly in ar-
duous driving conditions (heavy load,
high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Re-
member to check the pressure of the
spare wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to electromagnetic
emissions on a frequency close to
that used by the system.

Sensors fi tted in each valve trigger a
warning in the event of malfunction
(speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).
The spare wheel is not fi tted with a sen-
sor.
This warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the multifunction screen,
accompanied by an audible signal,
to identify the wheel concerned.


)
Check the tyre pressures as soon
as possible.
This check must be carried out when
the tyres are cold.
Under-infl ated tyre The STOP
warning lamp
comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message in the multifunc-
tion screen identifying the
wheel concerned.


)
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so,
avoiding any sudden movement of
the steering wheel and the brakes.

)
Change the damaged wheel (punc-
tured or very defl ated tyre), and
have the tyre pressure checked as
soon as possible.

Puncture

The tyre under-infl ation detec-
tion system is an aid to driv-
ing which does not replace the
need for the driver to be vigilant or to
drive responsibly.


Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
A message appears in the multifunc-
tion screen, accompanied by an audible
signal, to identify the wheel or wheels
which are not detected or to indicate a
fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop to replace the faulty
sensor(s).

This message is also dis-
played when one of the wheels
is away from the vehicle (be-
ing repaired) or when one or more
wheels without a sensor are fi tted.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESC)

Definitions


Anti-skid regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Trac-
tion Control) optimises traction in order
to avoid 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.

Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that re-
quired by the driver, the DSC 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.

Emergency braking assistance
In an emergency, this system enables
you to reach the optimum braking pres-
sure more quickly and therefore reduce
the stopping distance.
It is triggered in relation 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 effec-
tiveness of the braking.

Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking and provides improved control
in corners, in particular on poor or slip-
pery road surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution
system manages the braking pressure
wheel by wheel.

When this warning lamp
comes on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a mes-
sage, it indicates that there
is a fault with the ABS, which
could cause loss of control of the vehi-
cle when braking.

When this warning lamp comes
on, coupled with the STOP

warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal and a mes-
sage, it indicates that there is a
fault with the electronic brake force dis-
tribution (EBFD), which could cause 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 or a qualifi ed workshop.

When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that
these are approved for your
vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations of
the brake pedal.


In emergency braking, press
very fi rmly without releas-
ing the pressure.



Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD)
Electronic Stability Programme (ESC:
Electronic Stability Control) incorporat-
ing the following systems:


- the anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and the electronic brake force distri-
bution (EBFD),

- the emergency braking assistance,

- the anti-slip regulation (ASR) or
traction control,

- the dynamic stability control (DSC).

SA
F







Dynamic stability control (DSC) The DSC system offers excep-
tional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage
the driver to take extra risks or drive
at high speed.
The correct functioning of the sys-
tem depends on observation of the
manufacturer's recommendations re-
garding the wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components, the elec-
tronic components and the assem-
bly and repair procedures used by
PEUGEOT dealers.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.



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 DSC system,
so that the wheels can move freely and
regain grip.


)
Press the "OFF"
button or,
according to version, turn
the dial to this position.
This warning lamp and the in-
dicator lamp in the button or
in the dial come on: the DSC
system no longer acts on the
operation of the engine.

Reactivation
The system is reactivated automatically
each time the ignition is switched back
on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message in the multi-
function screen, this indicates a
malfunction of the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop to have the system
checked.
This is indicated by fl ashing of
this warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel.

Activation
This system is activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
It comes into operation in the event of a
grip or trajectory problem.


)
Press the "OFF"
button
again or, according to ver-
sion, turn the dial to this
position, to reactivate it
manually.

GRIP CONTROL


Normal mode


)
Place the dial in this position.

Snow mode Special patented traction control sys-
tem which improves traction on snow,
mud and sand.
This system is combined with all-season
M+S (Mud and Snow: 215/60 R16) tyres
which offer an excellent compromise be-
tween safety, grip and traction.
This system, the operation of which has
been optimised for each situation, al-
lows you to manoeuvre in most condi-
tions of poor grip (encountered during
touring use).
The accelerator pedal should be pressed
suffi ciently to allow the system to use
the power of the engine. The electronics
will ensure optimum management of the
various parameters. Operation at high
engine speeds is completely normal.
Each time the ignition is switched off,
the system returns to standard mode
(ESP). Standard mode which is calibrated for
a low level of wheel spin, based on the
different levels of grip normally encoun-
tered on the road. Mode which adapts its strategy to the
conditions of grip encountered for each
of the two front wheels on moving off.
When moving, the system optimises
wheel spin to provide the best accelera-
tion possible for the grip available.


)
Place the dial in this position.

A message appears in the
multifunction screen or in the
instrument panel screen con-
fi rming the mode selected

SA
F

Mud mode
Mode which, when moving off allows
considerable spin on the wheel with the
least grip to optimise clearing of the mud
and regain grip. At the same time, the
wheel with the most grip is controlled in
such a way as to pass as much torque
as possible.
When moving, the system optimises
wheel spin to respond to the driver's re-
quirements as fully as possible.
Sand mode
Mode which allows little spin on the two
driving wheels at the same time to allow
the vehicle to move forward and limit
the risks of getting stuck in the sand.
Driving advice
Your vehicle is designed princi-
pally to drive on tarmac roads
but it allows you to drive on other less
passable terrain occasionally.
However, it does not permit all-terrain
activities such as:


- crossing and driving on terrain
which could damage the under-
body or strip away components
(fuel pipe, fuel cooler, ...) due to
obstacles or stones in particular,

- driving on terrain with steep gra-
dients and poor grip,

- crossing a stream.

Place the dial in this position.
ESP OFF mode


)
Place the dial in this po-
sition.
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck. This mode is active up to 30 mph
(50 km/h).

AIRBAGS
Deployment of the airbag(s) is
accompanied by a slight emis-
sion of smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensi-
tive individuals may experience slight
irritation.
The noise of the detonation may re-
sult in a slight loss of hearing for a
short time.

Front airbags


Deployment
The airbags are deployed simultane-
ously, unless the passenger's front
airbag 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 infl ates between the
thorax and head of the front occupant
of the vehicle and the steering wheel,
driver's side, and the dashboard, pas-
senger's side to cushion their forward
movement.
Impact detection zones


A.
Front impact zone.

B.
Side impact zone.

The airbags do not oper-
ate when the ignition is
switched off.

This equipment will only deploy once.
If a second impact occurs (during the
same or a subsequent accident), the
airbag will not be deployed again.
System designed to maximise the safe-
ty of the occupants (with the exception
of the rear centre passenger) in the
event of violent collisions. The airbags
supplement the action of the force-limit-
ing seat belts (with the exception of the
rear centre passenger).
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
airbags are deployed instantly and
contribute towards better protection
of the occupants of the vehicle (with
the exception of the rear centre pas-
senger); immediately after the im-
pact, the airbags defl ate 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
airbags will not be deployed; the
seat belt alone contributes towards
ensuring your protection in these
situations.
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 thorax.
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.

SA
F













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 minor burns to the head, chest
or arms when an airbag is deployed
cannot be ruled out. The bag infl ates
almost instantly (within a few mil-
liseconds) then defl ates within the
same time discharging the hot gas
via openings provided for this pur-
pose.
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.
If possible, do not smoke as deploy-
ment 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.


Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the
seats, compatible with the deploy-
ment the lateral airbags. For infor-
mation on the range of seat covers
suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Refer to the "Accessories" section.
Do not fi x or attach anything to the
seat backs (clothing...). This could
cause injury to the chest or arms if
the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the
body any nearer to the door than
necessary.



Curtain airbags
Do not fi x or attach anything to the
roof. This could cause injury to the
head if the curtain airbag is de-
ployed.
If fi tted on your vehicle, do not re-
move the grab handles installed on
the roof, they play a part in securing
the curtain airbags.
