Safety

Emergency braking

assistance

In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure more
quickly and therefore reduce the stopping
distance.
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake
pedal is pressed. This is felt by a reduction in
the resistance of the pedal and an increase in
the effectiveness of the braking.

* The CSC system is linked with the EBFD on

vehicles which are not fitted with ASR/ESP
systems.

Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and

braking systems (EBFD and CSC * )

The ABS, in conjunction with the EBFD and
CSC * braking systems, increases the stability
and manoeuvrability of your vehicle on braking
and provides improved control, in particular on
poor or slippery road surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The EBFD and CSC * systems provide full
control of the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
A distribution between:
- the front and the rear in the case of the

EBFD (Electronic Brake Force Distribution),

-

the left and the right in the case of the
CSC * (Cornering Stability Control).

When changing wheels (tyres), make
sure that these are approved.

The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when there
is a risk of wheel lock.

When this warning lamp comes on,
it indicates that there is a fault with
the ABS, which could cause a loss of

control of the vehicle when braking.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

When these warning lamps
come on simultaneously, it
indicates that there is a fault

with the braking system or that the parking
brake has not been released fully, which can
cause a loss of control of the vehicle when
braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.

In emergency braking, press
very firmly without releasing the
pressure.

VSC

Safety

Anti-slip regulation (ASR) and electronic

stability programme (ESP)

Operating check

Operation of the ASR and

ESP systems

When one of these two systems
is operating, this warning lamp
comes on.

If a fault occurs with the systems, this
warning lamp comes on.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop to have the
systems checked.

These systems are linked and supplement
the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to prevent the
wheels skidding, by acting on the brakes of
the driving wheels and on the engine. It also
allows the directional stability of the vehicle to
be improved on acceleration.
If there is a variation between the trajectory
followed by the vehicle and that required by
the driver, the ESP system automatically acts
on the brake of one or more wheels and on the
engine to put the vehicle back on course, within
the limits of the laws of physics.

The ASR/ESP systems offer
exceptional safety during normal
driving, but this should not encourage
the driver to take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
Correct operation of these systems
depends on observation of the
ma-nufacturer's recommendations
regar-ding the wheels (tyres and
rims), the braking components and the
electronic components as well as the
repair procedures use by a PEUGEOT
dealer or qualified workshop.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Seat belts

3-door

5-door

The rear seats are equipped with two three-
point inertia reel seat belts.
You can store the seat belt buckles in the
housing A.

Pull the strap, then insert the buckle into the
stalk.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly by
pulling the strap.
To unfasten the seat belts, press the button on
the stalk.

Pretensioning front seat

belts with force limiter

Safety in the event of front impacts
has been improved by means of the
introduction of pretensioning seat
belts with force limiter for the

r

front seats. Depending on the force of
the impact, the pretensioning system
instantly tightens the seat belts and
pulls them against the body of the
occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active
when the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the
pressure of the seat belt on the
chest of the occupant, increasing
their protection.

Safety

* According to model.

The driver must ensure that the
passengers use the seat belts correctly
and that they are all properly restrained
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for
short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as
they will not fulfil their role fully.
If the seats have armrests * , the lap part
of the seat belt must always pass under
the armrest.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia
reel permitting automatic adjustment of
the length of the strap to your size. The
seat belt is stored automatically when
not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in
the hollow of the shoulder.

The inertia reels are fitted with an automatic
locking device which comes into operation in
the event of a collision, on emergency braking
or if the vehicle rolls over. You can release
the device by pulling rapidly on the strap and
releasing it.

In order to be effective, a seat belt:
-

must be tightened as close to the body as
possible,

-

must restrain one adult only,

-

must not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,

-

must be pulled in front of you with a
smooth movement, checking that it does
not twist,

-

must not be transformed or modified to
avoid altering its performance.

In accordance with current safety regulations,
all repairs and checks must be carried out by
a PEUGEOT dealer who can guarantee that
the work is carried out correctly, or qualified
workshop.
Have your seat belts checked regularly by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
and particularly if the straps show signs of
damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy water or
a textile cleaning product, sold by PEUGEOT
dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear bench
seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned
and rolled up correctly.

Recommendations for children:

-

use a suitable child seat if the passenger
is less than 12 years old or shorter than
one metre fifty,

-

do not use the strap-guide * when a child
seat is installed,

-

never use the same seat belt to secure
more than one person,

-

never allow a child to travel on your lap.

Depending on the nature and seriousness
of the impacts
, the pre-tensioning device
may be triggered before and independently
of the air bags. Triggering of the pre-
tensioners is accompanied by a slight
emission of harmless smoke and a noise,
due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat belts
system checked, and if necessary replaced,
by a PEUGEOT dea-ler or a qualified
workshop.

Safety

Airbags

Front airbags

Front airbag fault

Immediately after the impact, the airbags
deflate rapidly so that they do not hinder
the visibility of the occupants nor their exit if
necessary from the vehicle. The airbags are
not deployed in the case of minor impacts,
rear impacts or in certain roll-over conditions.
The seat belt is sufficient to ensure maximum
protection in these situations. The seriousness
of a collision depends on the nature of the
obstacle and the speed of the vehicle at the
moment of the collision.
Airbags only operate when the ignition is
switched on. When they are deployed, a noise
is heard during inflation.

The airbags have been designed to maximise
the safety of the occupants in the event of
serious collisions. They work in conjunction
with the force-limiting seat belts. The
electronic detectors register and analyse
any abrupt deceleration of the vehicle in the
impact detection zones (see diagram): if the
deployment threshold is reached, the airbags
inflate instantly and protect the occupants of
the vehicle.

These are fitted in the centre of the steering wheel
for the driver and in the dashboard for the front
passenger. They are deployed simultaneously,
except in cases where the passenger's airbag is
deactivated, in the event of a serious front impact
applied in the impact zone A in the longitudinal

A

centreline of the vehicle, on a horizontal plane and
from the front of the vehicle towards the rear. The
airbag inflates between the front occupant of the
vehicle and the dashboard to cushion his forward
movement. The airbags therefore limit the risk of
injury to the head and chest.

A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.

Note: the gas escaping from the
airbags can be a minor irritant.

Flashing indicates an airbag fault,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop to have the system
checked. The airbags may no longer be

deployed in the event of a serious impact.

Safety

To ensure the safety of your child, it is
essential to deactivate the passenger's
airbag when you install a "rear-facing"
child seat on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the air bag were
to inflate.
)

With the ignition switched off, insert the

f

key into the passenger airbag deactivation
switch 1, turn it to the "OFF" position, then
remove the key keeping the switch in this
position.

In the "OFF" position, the passenger airbag will
not be deployed in the event of an impact.
As soon as the "rear-facing" child seat is
removed, turn the airbag switch to the "ON"
position to re-activate the airbag and thus
ensure the safety of your passenger in the
event of an impact.

If the passenger airbag is
deactivated, the warning lamp in the
instrument panel remains on until the
passenger airbag is reactivated.

Flashing indicates a fault with at least
one of these airbags.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop to have the

system checked. The airbags may no longer be
deployed in the event of a serious impact.

Deactivation (check)

Airbag fault

* According to version.

Lateral airbags * and

curtain airbags *

The lateral airbags are built into the front seat
backs on the door side.
The deployment of these airbags requires a
serious side impact applied in the side impact
zone B , perpendicular to the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle, on a horizontal plane
and from the outside of the vehicle towards the
inside. The lateral airbag inflates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the door trim
panel. It therefore limits the risk of injury to the
chest.
The curtain airbags are built into the headlining.

The curtain airbag inflates between the front
or rear occupant and the windows. It therefore
limits the risk of head injuries. In the event of a
minor impact or bump on the side of the vehicle
or if the vehicle rolls over, the airbag may not
be deployed. The airbag is not deployed in the
event of a front or rear collision.

Deactivating the

passenger's airbag

56

Safety

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; 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.

Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the pillars or the
roof. This could cause injury to the head when
the curtain airbag inflates.
The deployment of an airbag or airbags is
accompanied by a slight emission of harmless
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 detonation noise may result in a slight loss
of hearing for a short time.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are
observed, injury or slight burns to the head,
chest or arms when the air bag is deployed
cannot be ruled out. Indeed, the bag inflates
almost instantly (approximately 30 milliseconds)
then deflates within the same time discharging
hot gas via the openings provided for this
purpose.
This equipment will only operate once. If a
second impact occurs (during the same or a
subsequent accident), the airbag will not inflate.

Lateral airbags

Only put approved covers on the seats, these
will not hamper the inflation of the lateral
airbags. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Do not fix or attach anything to the front seat
backs. This 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.

For the front, lateral and curtain
airbags to be fully effective, observe
the following safety rules:
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (child,
animal, object...). This could hamper the
operation of the airbags or injure the
occupants.
All work on the airbag systems is strictly
prohibited unless it is carried out by
qualified personnel of the PEUGEOT
dealer network or a qualified workshop.
After an accident or if the vehicle has
been stolen or broken into, have the
airbag systems checked.

* The rules for carrying children are specific to

each country. Refer to the current legislation
in your country.

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.

"Rearwards-facing"

PEUGEOT recommends that children should
travel in the rear seats of your vehicle:
-

"rearwards-facing" up to the age of 2,

-

"forwards-facing" over the age of 2.

"Forwards-facing"

Intermediate longitudinal

position

For maximum safety, please observe
the following recommendations:
-

in accordance with European
regulations, all children under the
age of 12 or less than one and
a half metres tall must travel in
approved child seats suited to
their weight
, on seats fitted with a
seat belt or ISOFIX mountings * ,

-

statistically, the safest seats
in your vehicle for carrying
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.

When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat ,
it is essential that the passenger airbag
is deactivated. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the airbag were to inflate
.

When a "forwards-facing" child seat is installed
on the front passenger seat , adjust the
vehicle's seat to the intermediate longitudinal
position with the seat back upright and leave
the passenger airbag activated.

58

Child safety

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.

Child safety

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 inflate.

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.

To protect young children from the rays of the
sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

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, fitted with a seat belt
guide at shoulder level.

* According to country.

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 harness keeping the
slack
in relation to the child's body to a
minimum
, even for short journeys.
To install a child seat using the vehicle's
seat belt, ensure that the belt is well
tightened on the child seat and that it
holds the child seat firmly against the
vehicle's seat.
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.

Child safety

"ISOFIX" mountings

This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in your
vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two
latches which are secured easily on these
lower rings A.
Some also have an upper strap which is
attached to the upper ring B.
To attach this strap, raise the vehicle seat's
head restraint then pass the hook between its
rods. Then fix the hook on the upper ring B and
tighten the upper strap.

lower rings A , located between the

vehicle seat back and cushion, indicated by
a label,

* Depending on version.

-

an upper ring B for securing the upper
strap, referred to as the TOP TETHER,
indicated by a marking on the rear seat
back panel.

The incorrect installation of a child seat
in a vehicle compromises the child's
protection in the event of an accident.

For information regarding the ISOFIX
child seats which can be installed
in your vehicle, refer to the table of
locations for ISOFIX child seats.
