Operating fault
Illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by the display of a
message and an audible signal,
indicates a fault with the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the systems checked.
ASR / DSC
Reactivation
The ASR system is reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched back on or
from 30 mph (50 km/h).
Below 30 mph (50 km/h), you can reactivate it
manually.
F

P
ress this button again to
reactivate the system manually.
The button indicator light goes off. These 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, black ice) that the risk of loss of grip
increases. For your safety, you should
therefore keep these systems activated at
all times, particularly in poor conditions.
The correct operation of these
systems depends on observation of
the manufacturer's recommendations
regarding both the wheels (tyres and
rims), braking and electronic components
and the assembly and repair procedures
used by PEUGEOT
dealers.
In order to benefit from the efficiency of
these systems in winter conditions, we
recommend using snow tyres.
In this case, it is essential to equip the
four wheels with tyres approved for your
vehicle.

Seat belts
Front seat belts
LockingSeat belt not fastened /
unfastening warning light
When the ignition is switched on,
this warning light comes on in the
instrument panel, if the driver has
not fastened his/her seat belt.
From approximately 12 mph (20 km/h),
this warning light flashes for two minutes
accompanied by an audible signal of increasing
volume. Once these two minutes have elapsed,
this warning light remains on until the driver
fastens their seat belt.
This warning lamp also illuminates in the
instrument panel if the driver and/or front
passenger unfastens his/her seat belt while
driving.*
The front seat belts are fitted with a pyrotechnic
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, thus
improving their protection. F

Air bags
Designed to contribute to the safety of the
occupants in case of violent collisions The
airbags supplement the action of the force-
limiting seat belts.
If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side impacts
sustained in the impact detection zones:
-
I
n the event of violent impact, the air
bags are deployed instantly and help
better protect occupants of the vehicle;
immediately after the impact, the air
bags deflate rapidly in order not to hinder
the visibility nor the possible exit of the
occupants.
-

I
n the event of a non violent impact, impact
on the back and under certain conditions of
a rollover, the air bags may not deploy; only
the seat belt helps to protect you in these
situations.Impact detection zones Front air bags
The air bags do not operate 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. The deployment of an air bag is
accompanied by a slight emission of
smoke and a noise, due to the detonation
of the pyrotechnic charge incorporated in
the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience slight irritation.
The detonation noise associated with the
deployment of an air bag may result in a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.
A
Front impact zone.
B Side impact zone. System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious front impact
in order to limit the risk of injury to the head and
thorax.
The driver's air bag is fitted in the centre of the
steering wheel; the front passenger's air bag is
fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.

Malfunction
If this warning light comes on in the
instrument panel, you must contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system
checked. The air bags may no
longer be deployed in the event of a
serious impact.
Reactivation
When you remove the rear ward facing child
seat, with the ignition off , turn the switch to
the ON position to reactivate the air bag and so
assure the safety of your front passenger in the
event of an impact.
Only the passenger's front air bag can be
deactivated.

F

R

emove the key keeping the switch in this
position.
When the ignition is on, this warning
light comes on in the instrument
panel and stays on while the air bag
is deactivated. To assure the safety of your child,
the passenger's front air bag must be
deactivated when you install a "rear ward
facing" child seat on the front passenger
seat. Otherwise, the child risks being
seriously injured or killed if the air bag is
deployed.
The air bags are deployed, except the
passenger's front air bag if it has been
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 air bag inflates between the thorax
and head of the front occupant of the vehicle
and the steering wheel, driver's side, and the
dashboard, passenger's side, to cushion their
for ward movement.
