Advice
The driver must ensure that passengers use
the seat belts correctly and that they are all
fastened before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt buckles as
they will not fulfil their role fully.
The seat belts are fitted 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 have an automatic locking
device at the time of a collision, during
sudden braking or if the vehicle turns over.
You can release the device by pulling the
strap firmly and then releasing it so that it
reels in slightly. In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
-
b e tightened as close to the body as
possible,
-
b
e pulled in front of you with a smooth
movement, checking that it does not twist,
-
b
e used to restrain only one person,
-
n
ot show any signs of cuts or fraying,
-
n
ot be converted or modified to avoid
affecting its performance.
In accordance with current safety regulations,
for all repairs on your vehicle's seat belts, go
to a
qualified workshop with the skills and
equipment needed, which a
PEUGEOT dealer
is able to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regularly by
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 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 passenger 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.
For more information on Child seats , refer to
the corresponding section.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and seriousness
of the impact , the pyrotechnic pretensioner
device may be deployed before and
independently of the airbags. Deployment of
the pretensioners 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 necessary, replaced,
by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Hill start assist
System which keeps your vehicle immobilised
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 system only operates when:
-
t
he vehicle has been brought to a complete
stop, with your foot on the brake pedal,
-
c
ertain slope conditions are met,
-
w
ith the driver's door closed.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held temporarily by hill start assist.

The camera may be disrupted or not work
in the following situations:
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate street
lighting, falling snow, heavy rain, dense
f o g , e t c .),
-
d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a
damp
road, leaving a
tunnel, alternating
shade and light, etc.),
-
c
amera or radar obstructed (mud, frost,
snow, condensation, etc.).
In these situations, detection performance
may be reduced. The system is not intended for the
following situations:
-
i
f the front end of the vehicle has
been modified (addition of long-range
headlamps, painting of the front
bumper),
-
d
riving on a racing circuit,
-
r
unning on a rolling road,
-
u
se of snow chains, non-slip covers or

operation of the cruise control.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
e
nsure that the mat is secured
c o r r e c t l y,
-
d
o not fit one mat on top of another.
Operation of the radar, located in the
front bumper, may be impaired by the
accumulation of dirt (dust, mud, etc.) or in
certain weather conditions (snow, frost,
e t c .) .
Clean the front bumper regularly.
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the
detection camera.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle, as this could
obscure the camera.

Distance Alert and Active
Safety Brake
This system is a driving aid that includes three
f unctions:
-
D
istance Alert (alert if there is a risk of
collision),
-
I
ntelligent emergency braking assistance,If the front bumper is to be repainted or
touched up, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop. Certain types of
paint could inter fere with the operation of
the radar.

- Active Safety Brake (automatic emergency b r ak ing).
Distance Alert: it warns the driver if their
vehicle is at risk of collision with the vehicle in
front or a
pedestrian present in their traffic lane.
Intelligent emergency braking assistance:
it supplements the braking action taken by the
driver if this is inadequate.
Active Safety Brake : it intervenes following
the alert if the driver does not react quickly
enough and does not operate the vehicle's
brakes.
If the driver fails to act, it contributes
towards avoiding a
collision or limiting
its severity by reducing the speed of your
vehicle.
Activation and operating
conditions
The vehicle has a camera located at the top of
t he windscreen, and depending on the version,
a radar located in the front bumper. The system is active from about 4
mph (7 km/h)
and is deactivated below about 3 mph (5 km/h).
It takes account of:
-
v
ehicles running in the same direction or
stationary,
-
p
edestrians in the traffic lane (bicycles,
motorcycles, animals and objects on the
road are not necessarily detected).
This system is designed to assist the
driver and improve road safety.
It is the driver's responsibility to
continuously monitor the state of the
traffic, observing the driving regulations.
This system does not avoid the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
As soon as the system detects a potential
obstacle, it prepares the braking circuit in
case automatic braking is needed. This
may cause a
slight noise and a sense of
deceleration.
Operating limits
- when carrying long objects on roof bars or a roof rack,
-
b
efore using an automatic car wash, with
the engine running,
-
b
efore placing the vehicle on a rolling road
in a
workshop,
-
w
hen the vehicle is being towed, with the
engine running,
-
w
hen a "space-saver" type spare wheel is
fitted (depending on version),
-
fo
llowing impact damage to the windscreen
close to the detection camera,
-
i
f the front bumper has been damaged
(version with radar),
-
i
f the brake lamps are not working.It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
Consequently, always stay alert and be
prepared to react at any time to avoid an
accident.
Distance Alert
Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert threshold
chosen by the driver, different levels of
alert can be triggered and displayed in the
instrument panel.
In the following cases, deactivating the system
via the vehicle's configuration menu is advised:
-
w
hen towing a
trailer,

- the ignition has been switched off for a few
minutes,
-
t
he driver's seat belt is unfastened and their
door is open.
As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops
below 40
mph (65 km/h), the system goes
into standby.
The driving time is counted again once the
speed is above 40
mph (65 km/h).
Driver inattention alert
Depending on version, the "Driving time
warning" may be combined with the "Driver
inattention alert".
After three first level alerts, the system triggers
a
new alert with the message "Take a
break!",
accompanied by a
more pronounced audible
signal. In certain driving conditions (poor road
sur face or strong winds), the system may
give alerts independent of the driver's
level of vigilance.
Using a camera placed at the top
of the windscreen, the system
assesses the driver's level of
vigilance by identifying variations
in trajectory compared to the lane
markings.
This system is particularly suited to fast roads
(speed higher than 40 mph (65 km/h)).
The following situations may interfere with
the operation of the system or prevent it
working:
-
p
oor visibility (inadequate lighting of
the roadway, falling snow, heavy rain,
dense fog, etc.),
-
d
azzle (headlamps of an oncoming
vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp
road, leaving a tunnel, alternating
shade and light, etc.),
-
w
indscreen area located in front of the
camera: dirty, misted up, frost-covered,
snow-covered, damaged or covered by
a
s t i c ke r,
-
l
ane markings absent, worn, hidden
(snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks,
e t c .),
-
c
lose to the vehicle ahead (lane
markings not detected),
-
r
oads that are narrow, winding, etc.
When the system interprets the behaviour of
the vehicle as indicating a
certain fatigue or
inattention threshold on the part of the driver, it
triggers the first level of alert.
The driver is then alerted by the message
" Ta k e c a r e ! ", accompanied by an audible
signal.

Lane Departure Warning
System
System which, using a camera which
r ecognises solid or broken lines, detects the
involuntary crossing of longitudinal traffic lane
markings on the ground.
To provide safe driving, the camera analyses
the image then, if the driver's attention drops
and the speed is higher than 37
mph (60 km/h),
triggers a
warning if there is an unexpected
change of direction.
This system is particularly useful on motor ways
and main roads.
Activation/Deactivation
This function cannot be deactivated on
versions without a touch screen.
This system is a
driving aid which cannot,
in any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver. Activation and deactivation of the
system is done in the Vehicle/
Driving
