Parking assistance

-C

signal becomes continuous and the "Danger"

symbol appears depending on the display.

The volume of the audio equipment decreases

during the transmission of the parking

assistance bleeps.

Switching the system off

Change to neutral, the system is again

inactive.

REAR PARKING

ASSISTANCE

If fitted on your vehicle, the system is

audible and/or visual and consists of four

proximity sensors, located in the rear

bumper.

The sensors detect any obstacle: person,

vehicle, tree, gate, behind the vehicle during

the manoeuvre.

Objects the size or thickness of which is

detected at the beginning of the manoeuvre,

may no longer be detected at the end of

the manoeuvre due to blind spots between

and below the sensors. Examples: stake,

roadworks cone, kerbstone.

Switching the system on

The system is activated as soon as reverse

gear is engaged.

This is accompanied by an audible signal and

displaying of the vehicle, depending on the

display.

The proximity information is given by:

- an audible signal, which becomes more rapid

as the vehicle approaches the obstacle,

- a graphic on the display, with blocks which

become progressively closer to the vehicle.

Depending on the display, the audible signal is

transmitted by a buzzer or by the rear speakers

which transmit:

- on the right if an obstacle is detected on the

right,

- on the left if an obstacle is detected on the left,

- on the right and on the left if an obstacle is

detected in the centre.

When the distance between the rear of

the vehicle and the obstacle is less than

approximately thirty centimetres, the audible

Activation/Deactivation

The system can be activated

or deactivated from the display

configuration menu.

The activation and deactivation of

the system are memorised when the engine

is switched off.

This function will be deactivated

automatically when the vehicle is towing

a trailer or when a bicycle carrier is fitted

(vehicle fitted with towing attachment or

bicycle carrier recommended by PEUGEOT).

In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the

sensors are not covered with mud, frost or

snow.

If there is an operating fault (e.g.

sensors dirty), when reverse gear is

engaged, the service warning light

comes on, accompanied by an audible signal

(short bleep or long bleep if the sensors are

dirty) and a message on the display.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

Improved safety and security

IMPROVED SAFETY AND SECURITY

In the event of a front impact, the retractable

steering column limits the backwards

movement of the steering wheel and the

risks of intrusion of the engine and gearbox

into the passenger compartment are

reduced.

In the event of a side impact, you are inside

a cell armed with solid side strengtheners.

With 5 stars in the Euro

NCAP ADULT OCCUPANT

PROTECTION tests,

the 807 protects you in

several ways. Its structure

absorbs a large proportion

of the energy connected with impacts.

Tests carried out on an 807 fitted with the

2.0 HDi engine.

Details of the other components are given in

the content of this chapter.

Driving safety

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM

(ABS) AND ELECTRONIC BRAKE

FORCE DISTRIBUTION (EBFD)

The ABS, in conjunction with the electronic

brake force distribution, increases the

stability and manoevrability of your vehicle

on braking, in particular on poor or slippery

road surfaces.

HORN

Press one of the spokes of the steering wheel.

When changing wheels (tyres and

rims), 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 light comes

on, accompanied by a buzzer and

a message, it indicates that there

is a malfunction of the ABS, which

can cause a loss of control of the vehicle

when braking.

When this warning light comes

on, connected to the

STOP

warning light, accompanied

by a buzzer and a message, it

indicates that there is a malfunction of the

electronic brake force distribution, which can

cause a loss of control of the vehicle when

braking.

Stop immediately.

In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT dealer.

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.

EMERGENCY BRAKING

ASSISTANCE SYSTEM (EBA)

In an emergency, this system enables the

optimum braking pressure to be reached

more quickly, thus reducing the stopping

distance.

It is triggered by the speed at which the

brake pedal is activated. This alters the

resistance of the brake pedal under your

foot.

To prolong the operation of the emergency

braking assistance system: keep your foot

on the brake pedal.

Driving safety

FET

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR) AND

DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL

(ESP)

These systems are linked and complement

the ABS.

The ASR system optimises drive to prevent

the wheels skidding, by acting on the brakes

of the drive 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 engine and the brake of one or more

wheels, in order to put the vehicle back on

course, within the limits of the laws of physics.

Activation of the ASR and ESP systems
When the ignition is on, the ASR and ESP

systems are always active.

Disarming the ASR/ESP systems
In certain conditions (vehicle stuck in mud or

snow, or on loose ground...), it could prove

useful to disarm the ASR and ESP systems

to make the wheels spin and regain grip.


Press the switch, situated under the

steering wheel on the left of the fascia.

The indicator light comes on

accompanied by a message: the

ESP and ASR systems no longer

act on the engine operation, but

continue to act on the brakes.

Operating check

When a malfunction of the

systems occurs, the indicator light

comes on, accompanied by an

audible signal and a message on

the display.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the

system checked.

The ASR/ESP systems offer increased

safety during normal driving, but should

not incite the driver to take risks or to drive

at high speed.

The operation of these systems is ensured

if the recommendations of the manufacturer

regarding the wheels (tyres and rims),

the braking components, the electronic

components and the fitting and repair

procedures within the PEUGEOT network

are observed.

After an impact, have these systems

checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

They engage again:


automatically above 30 mph (50 kmh),



manually by pressing the switch

again.

Operation of the ASR and ESP

systems
The warning light flashes if the

ASR or ESP is activated.

Driving safety

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION

DETECTION

Sensors check the tyre pressure during

driving, and trigger a warning in the event

of a malfunction (speed greater than

approx.15 mph [25 km/h]) or puncture.

An outline representing one or more wheels

flashing indicates the location of the wheel

or wheels concerned.

Flat tyre

The SERVICE warning light

comes on, accompanied by the

message

"Tyre(s) deflated", an

outline on the display, and an audible signal.

Check the tyre pressure as soon as

possible.

If the damaged tyre is temporarily

stored in the boot, it will again emit this

message to remind you of the necessity of

having it repaired. This will prevent another

warning of the same type being displayed.

Sensor(s) not detected

The SERVICE warning light

comes on, accompanied by

the message

"X tyre pressure

sensor(s) missing", an outline on the

display and an audible signal.

Under-inflation detection is absent from one

(or several) tyre(s).

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace the

faulty sensor(s).

This message is also displayed when

one of the tyres is away from the

vehicle (being repaired) or when a wheel

without a sensor is fitted.

All repairs and changing of tyres on a

wheel fitted with this system must be

carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer.

The tyre under-inflation detection system

is a driving aid which does not take the

place of vigilance or the responsibility of

the driver.

This system does not remove the need to

have the tyre pressure checked regularly

(including the spare wheel), to ensure that

the dynamic performance of the vehicle

remains at its best and to avoid premature

wear of the tyres, in particular in the case of

arduous driving (heavy load, high speed).

The system may temporarily be disturbed by

radio broadcasts on a frequency close to it.

Puncture

The STOP warning light

comes on, accompanied by

the message

"Punctured

tyre(s)", an outline on the display and an

audible signal.

Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden

movement of the steering wheel and the brakes.

Change the damaged (punctured or very

deflated) tyre, and have the tyre pressure

checked as soon as possible.

Refer to the "Changing a wheel"

section of chapter 8.

Seat belts

FET

FRONT AND REAR SIDE SEAT

BELTS

The front and row 2 rear side seats are fitted

with pretensioners and force limiters.

To adjust the height



To lower the attachment point, squeeze

control and slide it downwards.



To raise the attachment point, slide

control upwards.

To lock



Pull the strap, then insert the buckle into

the stalk.



Check that the seat belt is secured

correctly by pulling the strap.

The lap strap must be positioned as low as

possible on the pelvis. The chest strap must

pass over the hollow of the shoulder.

Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly

by pulling the strap.

Inertia reel seat belts

These are fitted with a device which locks

the seat belt automatically in the event of an

impact or emergency braking.

Safety in the event of a frontal impact has

been improved by the introduction of pre-

tensioning and force-limiting seat belts.

Depending on the seriousness of the impact,

the pre-tensioning system instantly tightens

the seat belts firmly against the body of the

occupant.

The pre-tensioning seat belts are armed

when the ignition is on.

The force-limiting device reduces the

pressure of the seat belt against the chest

of the occupant, so increasing his protection.

A bag placed on the front passenger

seat or a pet sitting on this seat may

trigger the lighting of this warning light.

SEAT BELTS

Front seat belt warning

light

If the driver and/or front passenger

has/have not fastened his/their

seat belt, this warning light comes on.

Then, at a speed in excess of approximately

15 mph (25 km/h), it flashes accompanied

by an audible signal of increasing volume

(for approximately 90 seconds) and a

message on the display.

Row 2 rear side seat belts

For your comfort, if you are not using the

seat belt, slide the seat belt loop to the

upper stop to prevent the tongue from

vibrating.

Row 3 rear side seat belts

The row 3 rear side seats are fitted with two

seat belts which are both three-point inertia

reel belts with force limiter.

Seat belts

due to the activation of the pyrotechnic

cartridge incorporated in the system.

The force limiter reduces the pressure of the

seat belt against the body of the occupants.

The equipment fitted to these seat belts is

operational 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, emergency braking or

if the vehicle rolls over. You can release the

seat belt by pulling the strap sharply and

releasing it.

The air bag warning light comes on if the

pretensioners are triggered. Contact a

PEUGEOT dealer.

In order to be effective, a seat belt must:


restrain one adult 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 fulfil their role completely. If the

seats are fitted 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.

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.

For further information regarding child seats,

refer to the "Children on board" section of

chapter 5.

In accordance with current safety

regulations, your PEUGEOT dealer

guarantees 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: they must not show any signs of

wear, cutting or fraying and they must not be

transformed or modified.

Clean the seat belt straps with soapy

water or a textile cleaning product, sold by

PEUGEOT dealers.

Good practice

Wherever you are seated in the

vehicle, always fasten your seat belt, even

for short journeys.

The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel

which automatically adjusts the length of the

strap to your size. The seat belt is rolled up

automatically when not in use.

Ensure that the seat belt is rolled up

correctly after use.

After folding or moving a rear seat or bench

seat, ensure that the seat belt is rolled up

correctly in its compartment and that the

buckle is ready to accommodate the tongue.

Depending on the nature and seriousness

of any impact, the pretensioning device

may be triggered before and independently

of inflation of the air bags. It instantly

tightens the seat belts against the body

of the occupants. The triggering of the

pretensioners is accompanied by a slight

discharge of harmless smoke and a noise,

To install the seat belt, move the tongue into

position to insert it into the buckle.

Row 2 and 3 rear centre seat belts

The row 2 rear centre seat and the rear

bench seat centre seat have an integrated

three-point inertia reel seat belt.

Air bags

FET

The air bags 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 air bags

inﬂate instantly and protect the occupants

of the vehicle. Immediately after the impact,

the air bags deﬂate rapidly, so that they do

not hinder the visibility of the occupants nor

their possible exit from the vehicle.

- in the event of a minor or rear impact and

in certain roll-over conditions, the air bags

will not be deployed; the seat belt alone is

sufficient to provide maximum 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.

Air bags 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 air bag will not

operate.

The triggering of an air bag or air bags

is accompanied by a slight discharge 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 noise of the detonation may result in a

slight loss of hearing for a short time.

AIR BAGS

It is imperative that the passenger

air bag is disarmed if a child seat is

installed facing rearwards. Refer to the

"Children on board" section of chapter 5.

Air bags

Good practice

If your vehicle is fitted with a front passenger

air bag, side air bags or curtain air bags,

observe this good practice.

Sit in a normal upright position.

Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.

Do not leave anything between the

occupants and the air bags (a child, pet,

object...).

This could hamper the operation of the air

bags or injure the occupants.

After an accident or if the vehicle has been

stolen or broken into, have the air bag

systems checked.

All work on the air bag system is strictly

forbidden unless it is carried out by qualified

personnel of the PEUGEOT network.

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 air bag

is triggered cannot be ruled out. In fact, 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 air bags
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

fascia.

Smoke as little as possible as deployment of

the air bags can cause burns or the risk of

injury from a cigarette or pipe.

Never remove or pierce the steering wheel

or hit it violently.

Side air bags
Only put approved covers on the seats.

These will not hinder inflation of the side air

bags. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

Do not fix or glue anything to the seat backs.

This could cause injury to the chest or arms

when the side air bag inflates.

Do not sit with the upper part of the body

any nearer to the door than necessary.

Curtain air bags
Do not fix or glue anything to the roof. This

could cause injury to the head when the

curtain air bag inflates.

Do not remove the grab handles installed

on the roof, they play a part in securing the

curtain air bags.

Air bags

Disarming
The passenger's front air bag alone can be

disarmed:


With the ignition switched off, insert the

key into the passenger air bag disarming

switch,



turn it to the

"OFF" position,



then remove the key keeping the slot in

this position.

Front air bags

The front air bags 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 air bag 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 air bag inflates between the front

occupant of the vehicle and the fascia to

cushion his foward movement.

Front air bag fault

If this warning light comes on,

accompanied by an audible signal

and a message on the display,

contact a PEUGEOT dealer to

have the system checked.

Reactivation
In the

"OFF" position, the passenger air

bag will not be triggered in the event of an

impact.

As soon as the child seat is removed, turn the

air bag slot to the

"ON" position to re-activate

the air bag and thus ensure the safety of your

passenger in the event of an impact.

To ensure the safety of your child, it

is essential to disarm the passenger

air bag 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 air bag were to inflate.

The air bag warning light on the

instrument panel is lit throughout

the period of disarming.

If the two air bag warning lights are lit

continuously, do not install a rear-facing

child seat. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

Child safety

FET

CHILD SAFETY

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:

- in accordance with Directive 2003/20, all

children under the age of 12 or less than

one metre fifty 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 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.

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.

"Rearwards-facing"

When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is

installed on the front passenger seat, it

is essential that the passenger air bag is

disarmed. Otherwise, the child would risk

being seriously injured or killed if the air bag

were to inflate.

"Forwards-facing"

When a "forwards-facing" child seat is

installed on the front passenger seat, leave

the passenger air bag armed.

INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT USING A THREE POINT SEAT BELT

Intermediate longitudinal position

If your vehicle is fitted with a passenger seat

with longitudinal adjustment, adjust it to the

intermediate longitudinal position, seat back

upright.

The rules for transporting children are

specific to each country. Consult the current

legislation in your country.

Please consult the list of seats approved

in your country. The isofix mountings, the

rear seats, the passenger air bag and the

disarming of this air bag depend on the

version sold.

Child safety

"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS

These seats are fitted with ISOFIX

mountings.

These are two rings located between the

seat back and the seat cushion.

The

ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two

locks which are secured easily on these

rings.

This ISOFIX mounting system guarantees

reliable, safe and fast fitting of the child seat

in your vehicle.
