FRONT AIRBAGS
the front airbags are fitted in the centre of
the steering wheel for the driver and in the
dashboard for the front passenger.
Deployment
t

hey are deployed, except the passenger's
front airbag if it has been deactivated, in the
event of a serious front impact.
t

he front airbag inflates between the front
occupant of the vehicle and the dashboard
to cushion their forward movement. Deactivation of the passenger's front airbag
Only the passenger's front airbag can be
deactivated. t
he airbag is deactivated using
the SET / Back button in the side control
panel: in the "Bag p" menu, select "OFF".
t

he passenger's front airbag
warning lamp in the central
control panel is on while the
airbag is deactivated.
to assure the safety of your child, you

must deactivate the passenger's front
airbag when you install a rearward facing
child seat on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being killed
or seriously injured if the airbag were to
inflate.
Refer to the "
t
echnology on board -

Vehicle configuration" section. Operating fault
If the two airbag warning lamps are on
continuously, do not install a rearward
facing child seat.
Have it checked by a P
euge O t
dealer or a

qualified workshop. If this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the
screen, contact a P
euge O t
dealer

or a qualified workshop without delay to have the
system checked.
t

he airbags may no longer be
deployed in the event of a serious impact.

For the airbags to be fully effective,
observe the following safety rules:
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,
object...).
t
his could hamper the operation
of the airbags or injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
All work on the airbag systems must be
carried out by a P
euge O t
dealer or a

qualified workshop.
e

ven if all of the precautions mentioned are
observed, a risk of injury or of slight burns
to the head, chest or arms when an airbag
is deployed cannot be ruled out. In fact,
the bag inflates almost instantly (within a
few milliseconds) then deflates within the
same time, discharging the hot gas through
openings provided for this purpose. Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by its spokes or resting your hands on the
centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the
dashboard.
Smoke as little as possible as deployment
of the airbags can cause burns or the risk of
injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel
or hit it violently.
Lateral airbags
Only put approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment of lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a P
euge O t
dealer
. Refer to the
"Accessories" section.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs.
t

his could cause injury to the chest
or arms when the lateral airbag inflates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, ETC...
Driving advice
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in
neutral.
Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
