Automatic headlamp dipping
This system is a driving aid.
The driver remains responsible for the
vehicle's lighting, its correct use for the
prevailing conditions of light, visibility,
traffic and observation of driving and
vehicle regulations.
The system will be operational as soon as
you have exceeded 15 mph (25 km/h).
If the speed drops below 9 mph (15
km/h),
the system no longer operates.
System which automatically changes between dipped and main beam according to the ambient light level and the driving conditions, using a camera
located at the top of the windscreen.

Anti-slip regulation (ASR) / Dynamic stability control (DSC)
Operation
These systems are activated automatically
every time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event of a
problem of grip or trajectory.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate the
ASR system, so that the wheels can turn freely
and regain grip.
Reactivate the system as soon as the level of
grip permits.Deactivation is done in the Driving
menu of the touch screen.
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:
Operating fault
This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument panel.
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.
It is confirmed by the display of a message.
The ASR system no longer acts on the
operation of the engine or the brakes in the
event of an involuntary change of trajectory.
ASR / DSC
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. It is therefore
important for your safety to keep these
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 these systems in wintry conditions,
the vehicle must be fitted with four snow
tyres, allowing the vehicle to retain
neutral behaviour on the road.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop. Reactivation is done in the Driving
menu of the touch screen.
It is confirmed by the display of a
message.

Airbags
General information
System designed to contribute towards
improving the safety of the occupants (with
the exception of the rear centre passenger)
in the event of violent collisions. The airbags
supplement the action of the seat belts fitted
with force limiters (all except the centre rear
passenger belt).
If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side impacts
sustained in the impact detection zones:
-
i
n 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 passenger); immediately after
the impact, the airbags deflate rapidly so
that they do not hinder visibility or the exit
of the occupants,
-
i
n the case of a minor or rear impact or in
certain roll-over conditions, the airbags
may not be deployed; the seat belt
alone contributes towards ensuring your
protection in these situations.
Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. S ide impact zone.
The airbags 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.
Deployment of one or more of the
airbags is accompanied by a slight
emission of smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience slight
irritation.
The noise of detonation associated with
the deployment of one or more airbags
may result in a slight loss of hearing for
a short time.

Under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.The under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance
on the part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances
and causes premature tyre wear,
particularly under arduous conditions
(high loading, high speed, long journey).The inflation pressures defined for
your vehicle can be found on the tyre
pressure label.
For more information on the
Identification markings
, refer to the
corresponding section.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed
.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing
snow chains.Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when the
tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1
hour or after a journey of less than
6
miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures
shown on the label.

terminals are correctly tightened
(versions without quick release terminals) and
that the connections are clean.
For more information and the precautions to
take before starting work on the 12 V batter y ,
refer to the corresponding section. Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g.
city driving), replace them twice as often if
necessary
.
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours. The start of saturation of the particle
filter is indicated by the temporary
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell,
which is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
the exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or the environment.
