Braking system warning
light
This indicates:
- handbrake applied or incorrectly released,
- a n e x c e s s i v e d r o p i n t h e b r a k e fl u - id level, in this case linked with the
STOP warning light,
- an electronic brake force distribu- tion malfunction, linked with the
STOP warning light.
WARNING LIGHTS WHICH ARE DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL
Seat belt warning light
When the ignition is switched
on, the warning light comes
on if a front occupant has not
fastened his seat belt or if he
unfastens it.
Fuel warning light
In certain driving conditions
and depending on the en-
gine, the distance which you
will be able to travel with
the remaining fuel may be less than
30 miles (50 kilometres) (the capacity
of the tank is approximately 67 litres).
Emission control system
warning light
This should switch off a few
seconds after the engine is
switched on.
When the engine is running, if the
w a r n i n g l i g h t fl a s h e s o r c o m e s o n c o n -
tinuously, this indicates an emission
control system malfunction.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible. Passenger air bag
disarmed warning light *
If the warning light remains
on, this indicates that the
passenger air bag has been
disarmed intentionally.
This warning light is re-
peated on the instrument
panel screen in the case
of the last 2 faults.
Stop immediately in the two latter
cases. Consult a PEUGEOT dealer. Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) warning light
If it comes on continuously
above 6 mph (10 km/h), it in-
dicates an ABS fault.
However, the vehicle retains conven-
tional servo-assisted braking.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
This warning light is re-
peated on the instrument
panel screen.
Directional headlamps
warning light
W h e n t h i s fl a s h e s , i t i n d i -
cates a malfunction of the
directional headlamps.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer. Diesel engine pre-heat
warning light
Wait for the warning light to
switch off before starting.
The duration of the display
is determined by the exterior
climatic conditions.
This warning light is re-
peated on the instrument
panel screen.

(according to version)
With the engine running, this
indicates that the fuel tank
cap is incorrectly secured or
absent.
It comes on in orange if the vehicle
speed is below 6 mph (10 km/h) and
in red if the vehicle speed is above 6
mph (10 km/h).

matic headlamp height ad-
juster is faulty.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAMME (ESP)
The electronic stability programme
(ESP) incorporates the following sys-
tems:
- the anti-lock braking system (ABS) and the braking system (EBFD),
- the emergency braking assistance system,
- the traction control (ASR),
- the dynamic stability control (DSC).
Traction control (ASR)
The ASR system optimises traction in
order to avoid 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 moni-
tors 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.
Operating modes
Definitions
Emergency braking assistance
system
In an emergency, this system enables
you to reach the optimum braking
pressure more quickly and therefore
reduce the stopping distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed
at which the brake pedal is pressed.
This is felt by a reduction in the resis-
tance of the pedal and an increase in
the effectiveness of the braking. When this warning light
comes on, accompanied by
a buzzer and a message, it
indicates that there is a mal-
function of the ABS, which
can cause a loss of control of the ve-
hicle when braking.
When this warning light
comes on, connected to
the STOP and ABS warn-
ing lights, accompanied by
a buzzer and a message, it
indicates that there is a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution,
which can cause a loss of control of
the vehicle when braking.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Anti-lock braking
system (ABS) and braking
system (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking and offers improved control,
in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The braking system provides integral
management of the braking pressure
wheel by wheel. Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and braking system (EBFD)

Dynamic stability control (DSC)
When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that
these are approved.
Normal operation of the ABS
may make itself felt by slight vibrations
of the brake pedal.
In emergency braking, press
v e r y fi r m l y w i t h o u t r e l e a s -
ing the pressure. Operating fault
When a system malfunction occurs, the
warning light comes on accompanied
by an audible signal and a message on
the multifunction display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
The DSC offers improved
safety during normal driving
but should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks (late
braking) or drive at very high speeds.
Operation of the system is guaranteed
on condition that the manufacturer's
instructions regarding the wheels
(tyres and rims), the braking compo-
nents, the electronic components and
the PEUGEOT network assembly and
maintenance/repair procedures are
complied with.
Following an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. Warning light on the instru-
ment panel.
The indicator light comes on.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting the
vehicle when it is stuck in mud, immo-
bilised in snow, on unstable ground…),
it may prove useful to deactivate the
DSC.
Press the "ESP OFF" switch, lo-
cated on the centre console.
The switch light and the indicator light
come on: the DSC no longer acts on
the operation of the engine.

again.

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION
Sensors check the tyre pressure dur-
ing driving and trigger a warning in the
event of malfunction.
Pressure Check
With the ignition on and the ve-
hicle having been stationary
for approximately 15 minutes,
and after the engine oil level,
this indicator light comes on
on the instrument panel screen to indi-
cate that the system is measuring the
tyre pressures.
Pressure OK
This indicator light comes
on on the instrument panel
screen if all of the tyre pres-
sure values measured are
correct.
If this indicator light does not appear,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked. Puncture
This warning light, accom-
panied by the audible sig-
nal and the message on the
multi-function display locat-
ing the wheel concerned, is
followed by illumination of the STOP
warning light.
Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-
den movement of the steering wheel
and the brakes.
Change the damaged wheel (punc-
t u r e d o r v e r y d e fl a t e d t y r e ) , a n d h a v e
the tyre pressure checked as soon as
possible.
Note: this message is also
displayed when one of the
wheels is away from the ve-
hicle (being repaired) or when
one or more wheels without a
s e n s o r a r e fi t t e d . All repairs and changing of
t y r e s o n a w h e e l fi t t e d w i t h t h i s
system must be carried out by
a PEUGEOT dealer.
If, when changing a tyre, you install a
wheel which is not detected by your
vehicle, you must have the system
reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer.
T h e t y r e u n d e r - i n fl a t i o n d e t e c t i o n s y s -
tem is an aid to driving which does not
replace the need for the driver to be
vigilant or to drive responsibly.
This system does not eliminate the
need to have the tyre pressure checked
regularly (see manufacturer's label) to
ensure that the optimum dynamic per-
formance of the vehicle is maintained
and prevent premature wear of the
tyres, particularly in arduous driving
conditions (heavy load, high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Remember to
check the pressure of the spare wheel.
T h e t y r e u n d e r - i n fl a t i o n d e t e c t i o n s y s -

ference due to radioelectric emissions
on a frequency close to that used by
the system.
Flat tyre This warning light is accom-
panied by the audible signal
and the message on the mul-
ti-function display locating
the wheel concerned.
If this warning light comes on, have
the tyre pressure checked as soon as
possible. Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
This warning light is accom-
panied by the audible sig-
nal and the message on the
multi-function display which
i n d i c a t e s t h a t u n d e r - i n fl a t i o n
detection is absent from one (or sev-
eral) wheel(s) or that there is a fault in
the system.

the faulty sensor(s).
