Notes: In the case of unwanted opening of the window on closing (forexample, in the case of frost) ifthe window will not rise and goesinto safety auto-reverse mode,lower it completely and raise it
again immediately, by pulling theswitch until the window closes
completely. Continue to press theswitch for approximately one sec-ond after closing. Following reconnection of the
battery, in the event of a malfunc-tion, you must reinitialise thesafety auto-reverse function:
Ð open the window completely,
then close it, it will rise in stages of a few centimetreswith each press, repeat theoperation until the window iscompletely closed,

The ESP system offers increased safety duringnormal driving, but shouldnot incite the driver to take
risks or to drive at high speed. The operation of the system is assured to the extent to which therecommendations of the manufac-turer regarding the wheels (tyresand wheel rims), the braking com-ponents, the electronic compo-nents and the assembly and repairprocedures within the PEUGEOTnetwork are respected. After an accident or impact, have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR) AND
DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL
CONTROL (ESP) These systems are linked and com-
plement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to prevent the wheels skidding, byacting on the brakes of the drivewheels and on the engine. It alsoallows the directional stability ofthe vehicle to be improved onacceleration. If there is a variation between the tra- jectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESPsystem automatically acts on theengine and the brake of one or morewheels, in order to put the vehicleback on course.
Operation of the ASR and ESP systems
When one of these two sys-tems is operating, this lightflashes. Handbrake Applying When parking, pull the handbrake toimmobilise your vehicle.

mud or snow, or on loose ground...),it could prove useful to disarm theASR system to make the wheelsspin and regain grip. 
Press the switch "ESP OFF", si-
tuated to the left of the steering wheel.
The switch lights up and the indicatorlights come on, accompanied by themessage '' ASR/ESP de-activated''

FRONT AIR BAGS These are folded in the centre of the steering wheel for the driver and in
the fascia for the front passenger.
They are deployed simultaneously,except in cases where the air bag isdisarmed. Front air bag malfunctionIf this warning light comes on, accompanied by a buz-zer and the message "Air
bag fault" on the multi-
function display, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer to have the sys-tem checked.
AIR BAGS The air bags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occupantsin the event of serious collisions;they work in conjunction with theforce limiting seat belts. In the event of a serious collision, the electronic detectors record andanalyse any abrupt deceleration ofthe vehicle: if the triggering thresholdis reached, the air bags inflateinstantly and protect the occupantsof the vehicle. Immediately after the impact, the air
bags deflate rapidly, so that they donot hinder the visibility of the occu-pants nor their possible exit from thevehicle. The air bags will not be deployed in collisions which are not serious, for
which the seat belt is sufficient to
provide maximum protection. Theseriousness of the collision dependson the nature of the obstacle and thespeed of the vehicle at the momentof impact. Air bags only operate when the ignition is switched on. Note: the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant.
