HORN
Audible warning to alert other road users to an imminent danger.
F
Press one of the spokes of the steering wheel.
EMERGENCY OR ASSISTANCE
CALL
This system allows you to make an emergency or assistance call to the

"Audio
equipment and telematics" section. Use the horn with moderation, observing the driving regulations of
the country you are driving in.

FRONT AIRBAGS
System which protects the driver and front passenger in the event of
a serious front impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the head \
and
chest.
The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the steering wheel; the front
passenger's

airbag is fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.
deployment
The airbags are deployed, except the passenger's front airbag if it is
deactivated, in the event of a serious front impact to all or part of th\
e
front impact zone A, in the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the front to the rear of the vehicle.\
The front airbag inflates between the chest and head of the front
occupant of the vehicle and the steering wheel, driver's side, and the
dashboard, passenger's side to cushion their forward movement.
deactivation
Only the passenger's front airbag can be deactivated:
F
with the ignition off , insert the key in the passenger airbag
deactivation switch,
F


turn it to the
"OFF" position,
F

then, remove the key keeping the switch in the new position.
T

o assure the safety of your child, the passenger's front airbag
must be deactivated when you install a "rearward facing" child
seat on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if
the airbag were deployed. This warning lamp comes on in the passenger's front airbag
warning lamps display when the ignition is on and until the
airbag is reactivated.

103
RCZ_en_Chap05_securite_ed01-2015
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...). This 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 system must be carried out by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are observed, a risk of
injury or of minor burns to the head, chest or arms when an airbag
is
deployed cannot be ruled out.
The
bag inflates almost instantly
(within

a few milliseconds) then deflates within the same time
discharging the hot gas via 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.
Do not smoke 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.
Do not fit or attach anything to the steering wheel or dashboard, this
could cause injuries with deployment of the airbags.
Lateral airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat backs. This could cause injury to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is triggered.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than
necessary
.

IGNITION SWITCH
Ignition on position
It allows the use of the vehicle's electric equipment or portable devices to be charged.
Once the state of charge of the battery drops to the reserve level, the \
system switches to energy economy mode: the power supply is cut off
automatically to preserve the remaining battery charge.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp can stay on for a longer
period. When the engine is hot, the warning lamp does not
come
on.
STARTING-SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE
It has 3 positions:
-
position 1 (Stop): insert and removing the key,
-
position 2 (Ignition on) : steering column unlocked, ignition on,
Diesel preheating, engine running,
-
position 3 (Starting).
STARTING THE ENGINE
With the parking brake applied and the gearbox in neutral or
position
N or P:
F

depress the clutch pedal fully (manual gearbox),


or
F press
the brake pedal firmly (automatic gearbox),
F

insert the key into the ignition switch; the system recognises
the

code,
F

unlock the steering column by simultaneously turning the steering
and the key

.
F

With a petrol engine, operate the starter motor by turning the key to
position 3

without pressing the accelerator pedal, until the engine
starts. Once the engine is running, release the key.
F

With a Diesel engine, turn the key to position 2

, ignition on, to
operate the engine pre-heating system.
In certain cases, you may have to apply more force to the steering
(wheels on full lock, for example).
Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key, which would weigh down
on its blade in the ignition switch and could cause a malfunction. Switching off the engine leads to a loss of braking assistance. Wait until this warning lamp goes off in the instrument panel
then operate the starter motor by turning the key to position
3
without pressing the accelerator pedal, until the engine starts.
Once the engine is running, release the key.

11 7
RCZ_en_Chap06_conduite_ed01-2015
In temperate conditions, do not leave the engine at idle to warm
up but move off straight away and drive at moderate speed.To facilitate unlocking of the steering column, it is recommended
that the wheels be returned to the straight ahead position before
switching off the engine.
For more information, refer to the "Practical information" section,
under "Energy economy mode". When you leave the vehicle, keep the key with you and lock
the
vehicle.
If the engine does not start straight away, switch off the ignition.
Wait a few moments before operating the starter motor again.
If the engine does not start after several attempts, do not keep
trying: you risk damaging the starter motor or the engine. Contact
a
PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualified workshop.
Never switch off the ignition before the vehicle is at a complete
stop. With the engine off, the braking and steering assistance
systems are also cut off: risk of loss of control of the vehicle.
Never leave the engine running in an enclosed area without
adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines emit toxic
exhaust gases, such as carbon monoxide. Danger of intoxication
and death!
In very severe wintry conditions (temperatures below -23°C), to
ensure the correct operation and durability of the mechanical
components of your vehicle, engine and gearbox, it is necessary
to leave the engine running for 4 minutes before moving of

f.
SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE
F Stop the vehicle.
F
With the engine running at idle, turn the key to position 1

.
F

Remove the key from the ignition switch.
F


T
o lock the steering column, turn the steering until it locks.
F

Check that the parking brake is correctly applied, particularly on
sloping ground.
Energy economy mode
After switching off the engine (position 1-Stop), for a maximum of
30 minutes you can still use functions such as the audio and telematic
system, the wipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps,
...

DRIVING

128
RCZ_en_Chap06_conduite_ed01-2015
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres, a symbol or a message is \
displayed, depending on equipment, to identify it.
F

Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering movements or harsh brake
applications.
F


Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
F


In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or
the

spare wheel (according to equipment),


or
F

if you have a compressor
, the one in the temporary puncture repair
kit for example, check the four tyre pressures when cold,


or
F

if it is not possible to check the tyre pressures at the time, drive
carefully at reduced speed.
UNdER-INFLATION ALERT
The alert is given by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and the display of a
message.
The loss of pressure detected does not always lead to visible
deformation of the tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check. With the ignition on, the pressure must be increased by at least
0.2

bar. If necessary, adjust the pressures to the values given on
the tyre pressure label. The
flashing and then fixed illumination of this warning
lamp accompanied by the illumination of the service
warning lamp indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is not assured.
This

alert is also displayed when one or more wheels is not fitted
with a sensor (steel spare wheel).
Go

to a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system
checked or

, following the repair of a puncture, to have the original
wheel,
equipped with a sensor, refitted.
OPERATING FAULT
The alert is maintained until the tyre or tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired or replaced.
