SAFETY
134




The driver must ensure that
passengers use the seat belts
correctly and that they are all
restrained securely before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt
buckles as they will not fulfi l their role
fully.
The seat belts are fi tted with an inertia
reel permitting automatic adjustment
of the length of the strap to your size.
The seat belt is stowed automatically
when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in
the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fi tted with an au-
tomatic locking device which comes
into operation in the event of a col-
lision, emergency braking or if the
vehicle rolls over. You can release
the device by pulling fi rmly on the
strap and releasing it so that it reels
in slightly. In order to be effective, a seat belt
must:


- be tightened as close to the body
as possible,

- be pulled in front of you with a
smooth movement, checking that
it does not twist,

-
be used to restrain only one person,


- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,


- not be converted or modifi ed to
avoid affecting its performance.
In accordance with current safety regu-
lations, for all repairs on your vehicle,
go to a qualifi ed workshop with the
skills and equipment needed, which a
PEUGEOT dealer is able to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regu-
larly by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop, particularly if the
straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and reeled in correctly.
Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to
secure more than one person.

Never allow a child to travel on your lap.

In the event of an impact

Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impact
, the pre-
tensioning device may be deployed
before and independently of the
airbags. Deployment of the preten-
sioners is accompanied by a slight
discharge of harmless smoke and
a noise, due to the activation of the
pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in
the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.







In the event of an accident, the high
voltage is disconnected automatically.

Particular situations







EMERGENCY BRAKING


In the event of a failure of the main ser-
vice brake or in an exceptional situation
(e.g. driver taken ill, under instruction,
etc) a continuous pull on control lever

A
will stop the vehicle
.
The dynamic stability control system
(DSC) provides stability during emer-
gency braking.
If the emergency braking malfunctions,
one of the following messages will be
displayed:


- "Parking brake faulty".

- "Parking brake control faulty".
In certain situations (e.g. starting the
hybrid system), the parking brake
can automatically alter its force. This
is normal operation.
To advance your vehicle a few centi-
metres without starting the engine, but
with the ignition on, press on the brake
pedal and release the parking brake by
pulling
then releasing
control lever A
.
The full release of the parking brake is
confi rmed by the extinction of warning
lamp in control lever A
and of the warn-
ing lamp in the instrument panel and
display of a message that the parking
brake is off.
If the parking brake malfunctions
while applied
or if the battery runs
fl at, an emergency release is always
possible.

If a failure of the DSC system is
signalled by illumination of this
warning lamp, then braking sta-
bility is not guaranteed.

The emergency braking must
only be used in exceptional
circumstances.
In this event, stability must be assured
by the driver by repeating alternate "pull
release" actions on control lever A
.

DRIVING

HILL START ASSIST

System which keeps your vehicle im-
mobilised temporarily (approximately
2 seconds) when starting on a gradient,
the time it takes to move your foot from
the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
This function is only active when:


- the vehicle is completely stationary,
with your foot on the brake pedal,

- in particular conditions on a slope,

- with the driver’s door closed.
The hill start assist function cannot be
deactivated.

Operation


On an ascending slope, with the ve-
hicle stationary, the vehicle is held
for a brief moment when you release
the brake pedal,
if the gear lever is in
position A
or M

.

On a descending slope, with the ve-
hicle stationary and reverse gear en-
gaged, the vehicle is held for a brief
moment when you release the brake
pedal.




Do not exit the vehicle while
it is being held in the hill start
assist phase.
If you need to exit the vehicle with the
hybrid system active, apply the parking
brake manually then ensure that the
parking brake warning lamp and the
warning lamp P
on the lever (of the elec-
tric brake) are permanently on.
