- opening or closing a door,

- locking or unlocking the vehicle.
It switches off automatically, after a few
minutes, if the doors remain open, or when
the ignition is switched on.
The courtesy lamp may be fitted with an
alarm sensor, a microphone for the hands-
free kit and reading lights.
The reading lampshave right-hand and left-
hand switches.

Driving safely
HORN
Press the centre of the steering wheel.


Anti-lock braking system and
electronic brake force distribution
Linked systems which improve the stability
and manoeuvrability of your vehicle when
braking, in particular on poor or slippery
surfaces.
BRAKING ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Group of supplementary systems which help
you to obtain optimum braking in complete
safety in emergency situations:


- anti-lock braking system (ABS),

- electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD),

- emergency braking assistance (EBA).
Activation
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibration of the brake
pedal accompanied by some noise.


When braking in an emergency, press
very firmly without releasing the
pressure.

Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the instrument
panel screen, it indicates a fault with
the anti-lock braking system which could result in
loss of control of the vehicle when braking. If this warning lamp comes on,
together with the ABS
warning
lamp, accompanied by a message
in the instrument panel screen,
it indicates a fault with the electronic brake
force distribution which could result in loss
of control of the vehicle when braking.

You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.

Good practice
The ABS system does not provide shorter
braking distances. On very slippery surfaces
(black ice, oil...) the ABS can extend braking
distances. For emergency braking, press the
brake pedal hard and do not release it, even
on a slipper surface; you will then be able to
steer the vehicle and avoid an obstacle.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
In either case, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
For maximum braking efficiency, a
bedding-in period of around 300 miles
(500 kilometres) is needed. During this
period it is recommended that you avoid
harsh, repeated or prolonged braking.

Seat belts
FRONT SEAT BELTS

The front seats are fitted with pre-tensioners
and force limiters.

Fastening

Pull the strap, then insert the tongue into the
buckle.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap.
The lap belt must be positioned as low as
possible on the pelvis. The chest belt must
pass over the hollow of the shoulder.

Inertia reel seat belts

These are fitted with a device which locks
automatically in the event of a collision or
emergency braking.
Safety in the event of a front impact has
been improved by the introduction of
pretensioning and force limiting seat belts.
Depending on the seriousness of the
impact, the pretensioning system instantly
tightens the seat belt against the body of the
occupant.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when
the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt against the body of the occupant in
the event of an accident.


Driver's seat belt not fastened warning
lamp
When the vehicle is started, this
warning lamp comes on if the
driver has not fastened their seat
belt.
REAR SEAT BELTS (COMBI)
The 3-seat bench is fitted with three-point
inertia reel seat belts with force limiter.
The centre seat has a seat belt guide and
inertia reel, integrated with the seat back.
When a seat belt is not in use, you can
store its buckle in the housing provided
in the bench seat cushion.
if the driver's seat belt is unfastened,
the START mode of Stop & Start will
not be invoked. The engine can only be
restarted using the ignition key.

SAFETY


Seat belts



Good practice

The driver must ensure that all passengers
fasten their seat belts correctly.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel
which automatically adjusts the length of the
strap to your size. The seat belt is reeled in
automatically when not in use.
Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat, ensure that
the seat belt has reeled in correctly into its
compartment and that the buckle is ready to
accommodate the tongue. The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt against the body of the occupants.
The equipment fitted to these seat belts is
operational when the ignition is switched on.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device
which automatically locks the strap in the
event of a collision or emergency braking or
if the vehicle rolls over.
The airbag warning lamp comes
on if the pretensioners are
deployed. Contact a PEUGEOT
or a qualified workshop.
Depending on the nature and seriousness
of any impact, the pretensioning device may
be deployed before and independently of
inflation of the airbags. It instantly tightens
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
The 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 order to be effective, a seat belt must:


- restrain one person only,

- must not be twisted, check by pulling in
front of you with an even movement,

- be tightened as close to the body as
possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should be
positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low as
possible on the pelvis.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they
will not fulfil their role completely. If the
seats are fitted with armrests, the lap part of
the seat belt should always pass under the
armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap firmly.
Recommendations for children:


- use a suitable child seat if the passenger
is less than 12 years old or less than one
and a half metres tall,

- never allow a child to travel on your lap,
even with the seat belt fastened.
For further information regarding child
seats, refer to the "Children on board"
section of chapter 5.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, for all work on your vehicle,
refer to a qualified workshop that has the
skills an equipment needed, all of which can
be provided by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Have the seat belts checked regularly (even
after a minor impact) by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop: they must not show
any signs of wear, cutting or fraying and they
must not be transformed or modified.

Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
available from PEUGEOT dealers.

Child safety


ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS

Installing a booster seat

The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
PEUGEOT recommends the use of a
booster seat which has a back, fitted with a
seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:


- one or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,

- a child or an animal in a vehicle which
is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,

- the keys within reach of children inside
the vehicle.

To prevent accidental opening of the doors,
use the "Child lock". Children under the age of 10 must not travel
in the "forward facing" position on the front
passenger seat, unless the rear seats are
already occupied by other children, cannot
be used or are absent.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag when a
"rear facing" child seat is installed on the
front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were
to inflate. The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses keeping the slack
in
relation to the child's body to a minimum
,
even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the "forward
facing" child seat, ensure that the back of
the child seat is in contact with the back of
the vehicle's seat and that the head restraint
does not cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be removed,
ensure that it is stored or attached securely
to prevent it from being thrown around the
vehicle in the event of sharp braking.
To protect young children from the sun,
fit side blinds on the rear windows.

QUICK HELP


Battery


Batteries contain harmful substances
such as sulphuric acid and lead. They
must be disposed of in accordance with the
law and must not, in any circumstances be
discarded with household waste.
Take used batteries to an authorised waste
disposal site.

It is advisable to disconnect the battery
if the vehicle is not to be used for a
period of more than one month. To do
this on models with Stop & Start:


- press the release button E
to disconnect
connector F
,

- disconnect connector F
of check sensor G
.
Never remove the check sensor G
from the
metallic point H
, except when replacing the
battery.




The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a 12 V lead-acid battery with
special technology and specification; the
involvement of a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop is essential when
replacing or disconnecting the battery.
Failure to observe this recommendation may
cause premature wear of the battery.

After refitting the battery by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop, the Stop & Start system will
only be active after a continuous period of
immobilisation of the vehicle, a period which
depends on the climatic conditions and the
state of charge of the battery (up to about
8 hours).
Before charging
The charging operation must be carried out in
a ventilated area away from naked fl ames or
any possible sources of sparks to eliminate the
risks of explosion and fi re.
Do not attempt to charge a frozen battery: it
must fi rst be thawed to eliminate the risks of
explosion. If the battery has frozen, before
charging it have it checked by a specialist who
will check that the internal components have
not been damaged and that the container is
not cracked, which could mean that there is a
risk of a leak of toxic and corrosive acid.

Before disconnecting
Never disconnect a terminal when the
engine is running.
Before disconnecting the battery, you must
wait for 2 minutes after switching off the
ignition.
Close the windows and doors before
disconnecting the battery.
After reconnecting
After every reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute
before starting to allow the electronic
systems to be initialised. If difficulties are
experienced after this, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
If the battery has been disconnected
for some time, it may be necessary to
reinitialise the following functions:


- the display parameters (date, time,
language, distance and temperature
units),

- the radio stations,

- the central locking.
Some settings are cleared and must be
reprogrammed. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
