Airbags



Front airbags

The front airbags are incorporated in
the centre of the steering wheel for the
driver and in the fascia for the front
passenger.

Activation
They are deployed simultaneously,
unless the passenger's front airbag
has been disarmed, in the event of a
serious front impact applied to all or
part of the front impact zone A in the
longitudinal centreline of the vehicle
on a horizontal plane directed from the
front towards the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag infl ates between
the front occupant of the vehicle and
the fascia to cushion his forward
movement.
Disarming
The passenger's front airbag alone can
be disarmed:


- With the ignition switched off
,
insert the key into the passenger
airbag disarming switch,

- turn it to the "OFF" position,

- then remove the key keeping the
slot in this position.

The airbag warning light on the
instrument panel is lit throughout
the period of disarming.
If the two airbag warning lights
are lit continuously, do not install
a rear-facing child seat. Consult a
PEUGEOT dealer.


Front airbag fault
To ensure the safety of your
child, it is essential to disarm 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 infl ate.
Reactivation
In the "OFF" position, the passenger
airbag will not be triggered in the event
of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
turn the airbag slot to the "ON"
position to re-activate the airbag
and thus ensure the safety of your
passenger in the event of an impact.
If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
display, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer to have the system
checked.

GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS


Although one of PEUGEOT’s main
criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also
depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow
these precautions:


- all children under the age of 12 or
less than one metre fi fty tall must
travel in approved child seats suited
to their weight, on seats fi tted with
a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings.

- statistically, the safest seats in your
vehicle for the transportation of
children are the rear seats,

- a child weighing less than 9 kg
must travel in the "rearwards-
facing" position both in the front
and in the rear,

- the passenger must not travel with
a child on his lap.



CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT


"Rearwards-facing"
Recommended on the rear seats up to
the age of 2.
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, it
is essential that the passenger airbag
is disarmed. Otherwise, the child would
risk being seriously injured or killed if
the airbag were to infl ate.
"Forwards-facing"
Recommended on the rear seats over
the age of 2.
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat,
leave the passenger airbag armed.


The rules for carrying children are
specifi c to each country. Consult
the current legislation in your
country.
Please consult the list of seats
approved in your country. The Isofi x
mountings, the rear seats, the
passenger airbag and the deactivation
of this airbag depend on the version
sold.

"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS

Your vehicle has been approved in
accordance with the new ISOFIX
regulation.
The mountings comprise three rings for
each seat:

- two front rings A and B , located
between the vehicle seat back and
cushion,
- a rear ring C , located on the back
of the vehicle's seat back, for
securing the upper strap referred to
as the TOP TETHER.
This ISOFIX mounting system
guarantees you fast, reliable and safe
fi tting of the child seat in your vehicle
on the side seats.
The ISOFIX child seats are fi tted with
two locks which are secured easily on
the two front rings.
Some also have an upper strap which
is attached to the rear ring C .
To attach this strap, raise the
vehicle seat's head restraint then
pass the hook between its rods.
Then fi x the hook on the rear ring and
tighten the upper strap.

Isofi x seat with support
ISOFIX child seats fi tted with a
support (which rests on the fl oor
of your vehicle) cannot be installed on
rear seats equipped with fl oor boxes
(under the footwells).

Child safety


ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS

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.
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 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 infl ate.

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.


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, fi tted
with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.
CHILD LOCK


This prevents opening of the side
doors from the inside.
Manual mode
A label indicates the location of the
child lock.


- Open fully past the point of
resistance.

- Tilt the lever, located on the rear
section of the door.


Electric mode
With the ignition on, press this
button. The diode comes on.
Warning: this system is
independent of the central
locking control.
Always remove the ignition key when
leaving the vehicle, even for a short
time.
It is advisable to check the activation of
the child lock each time the ignition is
switched on.
In the event of a serious impact the
electric child lock is deactivated
automatically.
To prevent accidental opening of the
doors, use the "Child Lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows
by more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays
of the sun, fi t side blinds to the rear
windows.

Towing a trailer
ACCESSORIE
S

For more information about
weights, refer to the administrative
documents (V5 registration
document, ...) or to the "Weights"
section of chapter 8.
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...


Distribution of loads

Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest objects are as
close as possible to the axle and
the nose weight is close to the
maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it.

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.


Driving advice

A towed vehicle must free wheel:
gearbox in neutral.

128
Towing a trailer


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.


Tyres:
check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identifi cation
features" section of chapter 8) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressure. See the "Levels" section of chapter 6. If the coolant temperature
warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible.
Brakes

Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change
down early and brake gradually.

Towbar

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 you entrust the
fi tting of this equipment to a PEUGEOT
dealer.
If this equipment is not fi tted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative that
it is fi tted using the electrical pre-
equipment installed at the rear of the
vehicle and in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
In accordance with the general
instructions a reminder of which has
been given above, we draw your
attention to the risk linked with fi tting
a towbar or electrical accessory not
recommended by PEUGEOT. Fitting
such equipment could result in the
failure of your vehicle’s electronic
system. Please contact a PEUGEOT
dealer for information before fi tting this
type of equipment.
Side wind

Sensitivity to side wind is increased.
Drive smoothly and at a moderate
speed.

ABS/ESP

The ABS or ESP systems only control
the vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.

Rear parking assistance

The assistance does not function while
the vehicle is towing.
