accelerate.  You can also switch them off by pressing the button.
Horn
 Press one of the spokes of the steering wheel.
Audible warning to alert other road users to an imminent danger.
Three fl ashes
Move the stalk briefly upwards or downwards, without going beyond the point of resistance; the corresponding direction indicators will flash 3 times.
If you forget to cancel the direction indicators for more than twenty seconds, the volume of the audible signal will increase if the speed is above 40 mph (60 km/h).
A visual warning by means of the direction indicators to alert other road users to a vehicle breakdown, towing or accident.
Use the horn moderately and only in the following cases: - immediate danger, - overtaking a cyclist or pedestrian, - when approaching an area where there is no visibility.
This function can be used at any speed, but it is particularly useful for changing lane on fast roads.

Tyre under-infl ation detection
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving. The system continuously monitors the pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the vehicle is moving. A pressure sensor is located in the valve of a each tyres (except the spare wheel). The system triggers an alert if a drop in pressure is detected in one or more tyres.
This system does not avoid the need to check the tyre pressures regularly (including the spare wheel) and before a long journey. Driving with under-inflated tyres adversely affects road holding, extends braking distances and causes premature tyre wear, particularly under arduous conditions (vehicle loaded, high speed, long journey).
The tyre pressures for your vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure label (see the "Identification markings" section). The tyre pressures must be checked when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or after driving for less then 6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed). Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the values indicated on the label.
Driving with under-inflated tyres increases fuel consumption.
The tyre under-inflation detection system is an aid to driving which does not replace the need for the driver to be vigilant or to drive responsibly.

Safety141
The flashing and then fixed illumination of the under-inflation warning lamp accompanied by the illumination of the "service" warning lamp indicates a fault with the system.
This alert is also displayed when one or more wheels is not fitted with a sensor (for example, a space-saver or steel spare wheel).
Under-inflation alert
The alert is given by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal, and depending on equipment, the display of a message.
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres , the symbol or the message appears, according to equipment, to identify it.
 Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering movements or harsh brake applications.  Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.  In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (according to equipment), or  if you have a compressor, the one in the temporary puncture repair kit for example, check the four tyre pressures when cold, or  if it is not possible to check the tyre pressures at the time, drive carefully at reduced speed.
The loss of pressure detected does not always lead to visible deformation of the tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.
The alert is maintained until the tyre or tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired or replaced. The spare wheel (space-saver type or a steel rim) does not have a sensor.
Operating fault
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked or, following the repair of a puncture, to have the original wheel, equipped with a sensor, refitted.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is not assured.

Safety
142
Electronic stability programme (ESC)
Definitions
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Traction Control) optimises traction in order to limit 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 required 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 pressure more quickly and therefore reduce the stopping distance. It is triggered according 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 effectiveness 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 slippery road sur faces. The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of emergency braking. The electronic brake force distribution system manages the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
Electronic Stability Programme (ESC: Electronic Stability Control) incorporating the following systems: - the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the electronic brake force distribution (EBFD), - the emergency braking assistance, - the anti-slip regulation (ASR) or traction control, - the dynamic stability control (DSC).

Safety143
Dynamic stability control (DSC) and anti-slip regulation (ASR)
This is indicated by flashing of this warning lamp in the instrument panel.
Activation
These systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started. As soon as they detect a problem of grip or trajectory, these systems act on the operation if the engine and brakes.
Operation
When this warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message, it indicates that there is a fault with the ABS, which could cause loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
When this warning lamp comes on, coupled with the STOP warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and a message, it indicates that there is a fault with the electronic brake force distribution (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 qualified workshop.
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake force distribution (EBFD)
In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasing the pressure.
Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims), make sure that these are approved for your vehicle.

Safety
144
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate the DSC and ASR, so that the wheels can turn freely and regain grip.
 Press this button. The indicator lamp in the button comes on.
The DSC and ASR systems no longer act on the operation of the engine and on the brakes in the event of a involuntary change of trajectory.
Reactivation
The systems are reactivated automatically each time the ignition is switched back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).
Operating fault
Illumination of this warning lamp and the lamp in the deactivation button, accompanied by an audible signal and a message, indicate a fault with the system. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked.
Below 30 mph (50 km/h), you can reactivate them manually:  Press this button again.
DSC/ASR
The DSC and ASR systems offer increased safety in normal driving, but they should not encourage the driver to take extra risks or drive at high speed. It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain, snow, ice) that the risk of loss of grip increases. It is therefore important for your safety to keep the DSC and ASR systems activated in all conditions, and particularly in difficult conditions. The correct operation of these systems depends on observation of the manufacturer's recommendations regarding as much the wheels (tyres and rims), braking and electronic components as the assembly and repair procedures used by PEUGEOT dealers. To benefit in full from the effectiveness of the DSC and ASR systems in wintry conditions, the vehicle must be fitted with four snow tyres, allowing the the vehicle to retain neutral behaviour on the road.
Reactivate the systems as soon as the level of grip permits.
After an impact, have these systems checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Grip control
Standard mode (ESC)
 Place the dial in this position.
Snow mode
Special patented traction control system which improves traction on snow, mud and sand. Associated with all-season M+S (Mud and Snow) tyres, this system offers a compromise between safety, grip and traction. This system, the operation of which has been optimised for each situation, allows you to manoeuvre in most conditions of poor grip
(encountered during touring use).
Mode calibrated for a low level of wheel spin, based on the different levels of grip normally encountered on the road.
Mode which adapts its strategy to the conditions of grip encountered for each of the two front wheels on moving off.
 Place the dial in this position.
The accelerator pedal should be pressed sufficiently to allow the system to use the power of the engine. Operation at high engine speeds is completely normal.
Every time the ignition is switched off, the system automatically resets to this mode.
A five-position selector allows you to choose the setting best suited to the driving conditions encountered. A message appears confirming the mode selected.

Safety
146
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 requirements as fully as possible.
 Place the dial in this position.
Sand mode
Mode which allows little spin on the two driving wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to move for ward and limit the risks of getting stuck in the sand.
 Place the dial in this position.
You can deactivate certain functions of the ESC (ASR and DSC) by turning the dial to the " OFF " position.
Driving advice
Your vehicle is designed principally to drive on tarmac roads but it allows you to drive on other less passable terrain occasionally. However, it does not permit off-road driving such as: - crossing and driving on terrain which could damage the underbody or strip away components (fuel pipe, fuel cooler, ...) due to obstacles or stones in particular, - driving on terrain with steep gradients and poor grip, - crossing a stream.
Do not use the other modes on sand as the vehicle may become stuck.
These functions are reactivated automatically from 30 mph (50 km/h) or every time the ignition is switched back on.

Unfastening
 Press the red button on the buckle.  Guide the seat belt as it reels in.
Seat belts
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fitted with a pretensioning and force limiting system. This system improves safety in the front seats in the event of a front or side impact. Depending on the severity of the impact, the pretensioning system instantly tightens 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 occupant, so improving their protection.
