2 - Manual correction of the height of the rear sill
If your vehicle is fitted with this adjustment,
the control is located on the right-hand side
at the rear of the vehicle.
This manual adjustment permits "lowering"
or "raising" of the height of the sill of the rear
platform to facilitate operations in a parking
area.
This adjustment of the height of the sill is
restricted by a lower limit and an upper limit. First use
To initialise the function, press the control
for approximately 2 seconds.
Malfunctions
If the load sill is not adjusted when the
control is pressed, "3 beeps" indicate a
malfunction for the following reasons:
- foot on the brake pedal with the key in
the ignition,
- excessive use of the manual correction,
- low battery charge,
- other.
If the audible signal persists, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Carry out these operations with the vehicle
still stationary and:
- with the front and side doors closed,
- with the parking brake applied,
- do not leave your foot on the brake
pedal.
Lower: downwards adjustment
of the platform sill
Press the control downwards
continuously.
Release the button to stop the movement,
"3 beeps" indicate that you have reached
the maximum limit, the movement stops
automatically.
Raise: upwards adjustment of
the platform sill
Press the control upwards
continuously.
Release the button to stop the movement,

Deactivation of manual height correction Good practice
When stationary and with the ignition key
removed, excessive use of the system
consumes battery power. Long term parking
Avoid parking for a long duration on ground
which could present a potential obstacle as
your vehicle could lower.
Following a long period out of use, the
height of the platform may change due to the
automatic height correction on unlocking or
on opening one of your vehicle's doors.
With the vehicle stationary:
- press and hold,
- release the control.
Deactivation is confirmed by
the LED which is on. It remains on for
approximately 30 seconds.
Return to manual height correction
You must deactivate the manual height
correction in the following situations:
- when working underneath the vehicle,
- when changing a wheel,
- when the vehicle is being transported by lorry, train, ferry, boat, ... Driving with the height of the rear platform:
- too low, risks damaging the technical
components underneath the vehicle,
- too high, risks unstable driving.
If you start and the warning lamp flashes, to
switch it off:
- correct the position of the manual control which is still at the lower or
upper limit,
- or drive slowly at above 6 mph (10 km/h), until height correction returns
to automatic mode. Warning lamp
Refer to the "Instruments and controls"
section of chapter 2.
With the vehicle stationary:
- press and hold,
- release the control.
Return to manual correction is
confirmed by the LED which goes off.
According to the configuration, a beep may
be heard during these operations.

MIRRORS
If fitted on your vehicle, the mirror is
supplemented by a 2nd lower mirror. This
mirror is convex to broaden the field of side
vision. Objects observed are, in reality,
closer than they appear. Therefore, take this
into account in order to judge the distance
correctly.
MIRRORS AND WINDOWS Electric folding
If your vehicle is fitted with this function,
the mirrors can be folded electrically from
the inside, with the vehicle parked and the
ignition on:
- Place switch A in the centre position.
- Pull switch A rearwards.
Heated mirrors
If your vehicle is fitted with this function,
press the rear screen demisting button. The folding / unfolding on locking / unlocking
can be deactivated. Contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Electric door mirrors
- Move switch A to the right or to the left
to select the corresponding mirror.
- Move knob B in all four directions to
adjust.
- Return switch A to the centre position. From the outside, lock the vehicle using the
remote control or the key.
Electric unfolding
The electric unfolding of the mirrors is
possible with the remote control or the key
on unlocking the vehicle, unless folding
was selected using switch
A . In this case,
pull the switch rearwards from the centre
position again.
Manual door mirrors
Move the lever in all four directions to
adjust.
When the vehicle is parked, the door mirrors
can be folded back manually.

ELECTRIC WINDOWS
1. Driver's electric window control
2. Passenger electric window control The electrical functions of the electric
windows are deactivated:
- approximately 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off,
- after one of the front doors is opened, if the ignition is off.
Reinitialisation
Following reconnection of the battery,
the safety anti-pinch function must be
reinitialised.
Lower the window fully, then raise it, it will
rise in steps of a few centimetres each time
the control is pressed. Repeat the operation
until the window is fully closed.
Continue to press the control for at least one
second after the window closed position has
been reached.
The safety anti-pinch does not operate
during these operations.
There are two operating modes:
Manual mode
Press or pull the control, without passing the
point of resistance. The window stops when
you release the control.
Automatic mode
Press or pull the control, beyond the point
of resistance. The window opens or closes
fully when the control is released. Pressing
the control again stops the movement of the
window.
Safety anti-pinch
If your vehicle is fitted with the safety anti-
pinch function, when the window rises and
meets an obstacle, it stops and partially
lowers.
In the event of unwanted opening of the
window on closing, press the control until
the window is fully open. Within the next
4 seconds, pull the control until the window
is fully closed.
The safety auto-reverse does not operate
during these operations.
Good practice
If the electric windows meet an obstacle
during operation, you must reverse the
movement of the window. To do this, press
the control concerned.
When the driver operates the passenger
electric window controls, he must ensure
that no one is preventing correct closing of
the windows.
The driver must ensure that the passengers
use the electric windows correctly.
Be aware of children when operating the
windows.

Driving safely
PARKING BRAKE There is no advantage in engaging a gear after parking
the vehicle, particularly if the vehicle is loaded. HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
Press this button, the direction indicators
flash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
The hazard warning lamps should only be
used in dangerous situations, when stopping
in an emergency or when driving in unusual
conditions.
DRIVING SAFELY
Applying
Pull the parking brake lever up to immobilise
your vehicle.
Check that the parking brake is applied
firmly before leaving the vehicle.
If the parking brake is still on or has not been
released properly, this is indicated by this warning
lamp which comes on on the instrument panel.
Pull on the parking brake lever, only with
the vehicle stationary .
In the exceptional case of use of the parking
brake when the vehicle is moving, apply the
brake by pulling gently to avoid locking the
rear wheels (risk of skidding).
When parking on a slope, direct your wheels
towards the pavement and pull the parking
brake lever up.
Releasing
Pull the lever and press the button to lower
the parking brake lever.

This DSC mode is calibrated for
a low level of skidding, based
on different conditions of grip
encountered on the road.
When the ignition is switched off,
the system returns automatically to DSC
mode.
This DSC OFF mode is only
suitable for specific conditions
encountered when moving off or
at low speed.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h) the system returns
to DSC mode automatically. This snow mode allows the
vehicle to adapts its strategy
to the conditions of grip
encountered for each of the
two front wheels, on moving off.
When moving, the system optimises
wheelspin to provide the best acceleration
possible for the grip available.
This off-road mode (mud, wet
grass...) allows, when moving off,
considerable wheelspin on the
wheel with the least grip to favour
clearing of the mud and regain "grip". At the
same time, the wheel with the most grip is
controlled in such a way as to transmit as
much torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises
wheelspin to meet the driver's requirements
as fully as possible. This sand mode allows a little
wheelspin on the two driving
wheels at the same time to allow
the vehicle to move forward and
reduces the risk of getting stuck in the sand.
Do not use the other modes on sand as the
vehicle may become stuck.

Seat belts
SAFETY
4
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt against the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active 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.
You can unfasten the seat belt by pressing
the red button on the buckle. Guide the seat
belt after unfastening.
The airbag warning lamp comes on if the
pretensioners are deployed. Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one metre fifty,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap, even with the seat belt fastened. FRONT SEAT BELTS
REAR SEAT BELTS
If your vehicle is fitted with an individual seat
and a 2-seat bench, the 3 seats are fitted
with three-point seat belts and inertia reels.
The centre seat has its seat belt guide and
inertia reel integrated with the seat back.
For more information on child seats,
refer to the "Children on board" section
of chapter 4.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, your PEUGEOT dealer can
guarantee all work or any checks, from
testing to maintenance, on your seat belt
equipment.
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 converted or modified.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by PEUGEOT dealers.
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 fulfi l their role completely. If the seats are
fi tted 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.
With front airbags
The front seats are fitted with pretensioners
and force limiters.
Without front airbag
If your vehicle is fitted with a front bench
without front airbag, the centre passenger's
seat belt does not have a pretensioner.
In rows 2 and 3, take care to fasten the
correct seat belt in the correct buckle. Do
not mix the seat belt or the buckle of the
side seats with the buckle or the seat belt of
the centre seat.

103
Airbags
SAFETY
4
The airbags have been designed to maximise
the safety of the occupants (with the
exception of the centre seats of rows 2 and 3)
in the event of a serious collision; they work in
conjunction with the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, the
electronic detectors record and analyse the
front and side impacts suffered in the impact
detection zones:
- in the event of a serious impact, the airbags inflate instantly and contribute
towards better protecting the occupants of the vehicle. Straight after the impact
the airbags quickly deflate so as to
not impede visibility, or the exit of
passengers if required.
- in the event of a minor or rear impact and in certain roll-over conditions, the
airbags will not be deployed; the seat
belt alone is sufficient to contribute
towards providing your protection in
these situations.
The seriousness of the collision depends on
the nature of the obstacle and the speed of
the vehicle at the moment of impact. It is imperative that the passenger's
airbag is deactivated if a child seat
is installed facing rearwards. Refer to the
"Children on board" section of chapter 4. Airbags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
This equipment only operates once. If a
second impact occurs (during the same or
a subsequent accident), the airbag will not
operate.
The deployment of an airbag or airbags is
accompanied by a slight discharge of smoke
and a noise, due to the activation of the
pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the
system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result in a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.
