ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS

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 t-

ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder

level.

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 keep-

ing the slack relative to the child's

body to a minimum, even for short

journeys.
When installing a child seat using

the seat belt, ensure that the seat

belt is tightened correctly on the

child seat and that it secures the

child seat fi rmly on the seat of your

vehicle. Move the seat forwards if

necessary.
For optimum installation of the "for-

wards-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 re-

moved, ensure that it is stored or

attached securely to prevent it from

being thrown around the vehicle in

the event of sharp braking.

As a safety precaution, do not leave:
-

a child or children alone and un-

supervised 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 prevent accidental opening of

the doors and rear windows, 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 on

the rear windows.

Children under the age of 10 must

not travel in the "forwards-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 "rearwards-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.

BRAKING ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS *

Group of supplementary systems which

help you to obtain optimum braking in

complete safety in emergency situations:
-

anti-lock braking system (ABS),

- electronic brake force distribution

(EBFD),

-

emergency braking assistance (EBA).

Anti-lock braking system

and electronic brake force

distribution

Linked systems which improve the sta-

bility and manoeuvrability of your vehi-

cle when braking, in particular on poor

or slippery surfaces.

When braking in an emergency,

press very fi rmly without releasing

the pressure.

Emergency braking assistance

System which, in an emergency, en-

ables you to obtain the optimum braking

pressure more quickly, thus reducing

the stopping distance.

Activation
The anti-lock braking system comes

into operation automatically when there

is a risk of wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may make

itself felt by slight vibration of the brake

pedal.

Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which the

brake pedal is pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in the

resistance of the pedal and an increase

in braking effi ciency.

* According to country.

When braking in an emergency,

press fi rmly without releasing the

pressure.

Operating fault

If this warning lamp comes on,

accompanied by an audible sig-

nal and a message in the mul-

tifunction screen, it indicates a

malfunction of the anti-lock braking sys-

tem which could result in loss of control

of the vehicle when braking.

If this warning lamp comes on,

together with the

STOP and

ABS warning lamps, accompa-

nied by an audible signal and a

message in the multifunction screen, it

indicates a malfunction of the electron-

ic brake force distribution which could

result in loss of control of the vehicle

when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe

to do so.

In either case, contact a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

When replacing wheels (tyres and

rims), ensure that they conform to

the manufacturer's recommenda-

tions.

6

!

SAFETY

104

The ESP/ASR systems offer ex-

ceptional safety in normal driving,

but this should not encourage the

driver to take extra risks or drive at

high speed.
The correct functioning of these

systems depends on observation

of the manufacturer's recommen-

dations on:
-

wheels (tyres and rims),

-

braking system components,

- electronic

components,

- assembly and repair proce-

dures.

After an impact, have these sys-

tems checked by a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a

vehicle which is bogged down, stuck

in snow, on soft ground, ...), it may be

advisable to disarm the ASR and ESP

systems, so that the wheels can move

freely and regain grip.

) Press the "ESP OFF" button, locat-

ed in the centre of the dashboard.

If this warning lamp comes on in the instru-

ment panel and the indicator lamp in the

button comes on, this indicates that the

ASR and ESP systems are deactivated.

Reactivation
These systems are reactivated automat-

ically each time the ignition is switched

back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).
) Press the "ESP OFF" button again

to reactivate them manually.

TRAJECTORY CONTROL
SYSTEMS

Activation
These systems are activated automati-

cally each time the vehicle is started.

Anti-slip regulation (ASR) and

electronic stability programme

(ESP)

They come into operation in

the event of a grip or trajectory

problem.
This is indicated by fl ashing of

this warning lamp in the instru-

ment panel.

Steering/ESP coupling system

(SSP)

The anti-slip regulation (also known as

Traction Control) optimises traction to

prevent skidding of the wheels, by act-

ing on the brakes of the driving wheels

and on the engine.
The electronic stability programme acts

on the brake of one or more wheels and

on the engine to keep the vehicle on the

trajectory required by the driver, within

the limits of the laws of physics.

This system optimises the stability of

the vehicle and its braking capacity by

combining the actions of the ESP and

electric power steering when braking on

surfaces on which the grip of the right-

hand and left-hand wheel differs.
It permits increased braking of the

wheels which are in contact with the

section of road offering the higher level

of grip and, anticipating the instability of

the vehicle, the application of a slight

correction to the turning angle of the

wheels to assist the driver in maintain-

ing his trajectory.

Operating fault

If this warning lamp comes on,

accompanied by an audible sig-

nal and a message in the multi-

function screen, this indicates a

malfunction of these systems.

Have them checked by a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

This warning lamp comes on on the in-

strument panel if one or more passengers

unbuckle their seat belt.

Unfastening
) Press the red button on the buckle.

Front seat belts

The front seat belts are fi tted with a pre-

tensioning and force limiting system.
This system improves safety in the front

seats in the event of front impacts. De-

pending on the severity of the impact,

the pretensioning system instantly tight-

ens the seat belts 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 oc-

cupant, increasing his protection.
On the 5-door versions, a slider, fi tted

on the seat belt, makes it possible to

support the buckle as close as possible

to the upper mounting.

The driver must ensure that the

passengers use the seat belts cor-

rectly and that they are all properly

restrained before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-

hicle, always fasten your seat belt,

even for short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles

as they will not fulfi l 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 fi tted with an in-

ertia reel permitting automatic ad-

justment 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 fi tted 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.

* According to model.

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 modifi ed

to avoid altering its performance.

In accordance with current safety regu-

lations, all repairs and checks must be

carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer who

can guarantee that the work is carried

out correctly, or qualifi ed workshop.
Have your seat belts checked regularly

by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed

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 pas-

senger is less than 12 years old or

shorter than one metre fi fty,

- 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 se-

riousness 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 car-

tridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp

comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat

belts system checked, and if neces-

sary replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer

or a qualifi ed workshop.

AIRBAGS

The airbags do not operate when

the ignition is switched off.
This equipment will only operate

once. If a second impact occurs (dur-

ing the same or a subsequent acci-

dent), the airbag will not operate.

Front airbags

System which protects the head and

chest of the driver and front passenger

in the event of a front impact.
The driver's airbag is fi tted in the centre

of the steering wheel; the front passen-

ger's airbag is fi tted in the dashboard

above the glove box.

Operation
The airbags are deployed simultane-

ously, unless the passenger's front

airbag is deactivated, in the event of a

serious front impact applied to all or part

of the front impact zone A , in the lon-

gitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a

horizontal plane and directed from the

front to the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag infl ates between the

front occupant of the vehicle and the

dashboard to cushion their forward

movement.

Impact detection zones

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

Deployment of the airbag(s) is ac-

companied by a slight emission of

harmless smoke and a noise, due to

the activation of the pyrotechnic car-

tridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sen-

sitive individuals may experience

slight irritation.
The noise of the detonation may

result in a slight loss of hearing for

a short time.

System designed to maximise the safety

of the occupants (with the exception of

the rear centre passenger) in the event

of violent collisions. It supplements the

action of the force-limiting seat belts.

If a collision occurs, the electronic de-

tectors record and analyse the front and

side impacts sustained in the impact

detection zones:
- in the case of a serious impact, the

airbags are deployed instantly and

protect the occupants of the vehicle

(with the exception of the rear centre

passenger); immediately after the

impact, the airbags defl ate rapidly

so that they do not hinder visibility

or the exit of the occupants,

-

in the case of a minor or rear impact

or in certain roll-over conditions, the

airbags will not be deployed; the

seat belt alone is suffi cient to pro-

vide optimum protection in these

situations.
