Airbags
Deactivating the passenger airbag
Refer to the "MODE" section of
chapter 4, then on the "Passenger
airbag" menu, select OFF
. When OFF
is selected, the passenger airbag
will not be triggered in the event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
select ON
to re-activate the airbag and
thus ensure the safety of your passenger in
the event of an impact.
Lateral airbags and curtain airbags
If your vehicle is fitted with lateral airbags,
these are fitted to the front seat backs on
the door side.
The curtain airbags are fitted to the door
pillars and the upper part of the passenger
compartment, in the roof over the front
cab seats.
They inflate between the occupant and
the glass.
They are deployed independently of each
other depending on which side the collision
occurs.
The airbag warning lamp on the
instrument panel remains on while
the passenger airbag is deactivated.
To ensure the safety of your child, it is
essential to deactivate the passenger airbag
when you install a rear-facing child seat on
the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the
child would risk being killed or seriously
injured if the airbag were to inflate.
If your vehicle is not fitted with this
equipment: do not install a rear-facing child
seat.
Deactivation check
This is confirmed by lighting of
this warning lamp each time
the engine is started.
If your vehicle is fitted
with this screen, the
check is accompanied by
a message.
Operating check
Confirmed by this indicator lamp.

SAFETY
Child safety
Refer to chapter 5, "Airbags" section.
The child seats function and the
passenger airbag deactivation function
are common to the entire PEUGEOT range.
If the passenger airbag is not deactivated,
the installation of a "rearwards-facing" child
seat in the front is strictly prohibited.
If your vehicle is fitted with this function, the
passenger airbag must be deactivated using
the trip computer MODE button.
The rules for carrying children are
specific to each country. Consult the
current legislation in your country.
Please consult the list of seats approved
in your country. The Isofix mountings,
the rear seats, the passenger airbag and
the deactivation of this airbag depend on
the version sold.
Passenger airbag OFF
Refer to the advice given on the label
present on both sides of the passenger's
sun visor.
To assure the safety of your child, you must
deactivate the passenger's front airbag when
you install a child seat in the rearwards
facing position on the front passenger's seat.
Otherwise, there is a risk that the child could
be seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were deployed.

Towing a trailer
ACCESSORIE
S
Cooling:
towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
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.
Tyres:
check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identification
markings" section of chapter 9) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressures.
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle and that
the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to
a PEUGEOT dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a PEUGEOT
dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted using
the electrical pre-equipment installed at the
rear of the vehicle and in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions.
Good practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a steep
slope in high temperatures), the engine
automatically limits its power. In this
case, the automatic cutting off of the air
conditioning allows the engine power to be
recovered.
If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 7.
Brakes:
towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually.
Side wind:
sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a moderate
speed.
ABS:
the system only controls the vehicle,
not the trailer.
Rear parking
sensors
:
the system does not
operate while the vehicle is towing.
