Airbags

4

  Side air bags 

 If fi tted on your vehicle, this is a system 

which protects the driver and front 

passenger in the event of a serious 

side impact in order to limit the risk of 

injury to the chest. 
 Each side air bag is incorporated in the 

front seat back frame, on the door side. 

 The curtain air bag infl ates between 

the front or rear occupant of the vehicle 

and the windows. 

  Impact detection zones 
   A.   Front impact zone. 
  B.   Side impact zone.    

 In the event of a minor impact or 

bump on the side of the vehicle or 

if the vehicle rolls over, the air bag 

may not be triggered. 

 The air bag is not triggered in the event 

of a rear or front collision.  

  Operating fault 

  Curtain air bags 

 If fi tted on your vehicle, this is a 

system which protects the driver and 

passengers (with the exception of the 

centre seats of rows 2 and 3) in the 

event of a serious side impact in order 

to limit the risk of head injuries. 
 Each curtain air bag is incorporated 

in the pillars and the upper part of the 

passenger compartment. 

  Activation 
 It is triggered unilaterally in the event 

of a serious side impact applied to 

all or part of the side impact zone  B , 

perpendicular to the longitudinal 

centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal 

plane and directed from the outside 

towards the inside of the vehicle. 
 The side air bag infl ates between the 

front occupant of the vehicle and the 

corresponding door trim pad.  

  Activation 
 It is triggered at the same time as the 

corresponding side air bag in the event 

of a serious side impact applied to 

all or part of the side impact zone  B , 

perpendicular to the longitudinal 

centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal 

plane and directed from the outside 

towards the inside of the vehicle. 

 If this warning light comes 

on on the instrument panel, 

accompanied by an audible 

signal and a message on the 

display, consult a PEUGEOT 

dealer to have the system 

checked. The air bags may no longer 

be triggered in the event of a serious 

impact.   

96

Airbags

  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. 

  Front air bag fault 

  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 infl ate.  

 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. Consult a 

PEUGEOT dealer.   

  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 infl ates between 

the front occupant of the vehicle and 

the fascia to cushion his forward 

movement.  

 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.

 CHILD SAFETY 

 GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS

  "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 deactivated. 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 activated.   

  CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT 

  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.  

  The child seats function and the 

passenger's airbag deativation function 

are common to the entire PEUGEOT 

range. 

  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.   

  Refer to chapter 4, "Airbags" 

section.  

  If the passenger's airbag is not 

deactivated, the installation of a 

"rearwards-facing" child seat in the 

front is strictly prohibited.  

98

   Child safety   

 "ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS

 These seats are fi tted with ISOFIX 

mountings. 

 These are two rings located between 

the seat back and the seat cushion. 
 The  ISOFIX child seats  are fi tted with 

two locks which are secured easily on 

these rings. 

 This ISOFIX mounting system 

guarantees reliable, safe and fast 

fi tting of the child seat in your vehicle. 

  

   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.

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. 

 To protect young children from the 

rays of the sun, fi t side blinds to 

the rear windows.  

 CHILD MONITORING MIRROR 

 This mirror enables the driver or front 

passenger to observe all the rear 

seats. 
 Fitted on its own ball joint and able to 

retract into its housing in the roof, it 

provides a panoramic view of the rear 

interior of the vehicle. 

 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.  

 To prevent accidental opening of the 

doors, use the "Child Lock". 

 Take care not to open the rear windows 

by more than one third. 

  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.

   Towing a trailer   

ACCESSORIES

5

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...

  Refer to the administrative 

documents (V5, ...) or to the Diesel 

"Dimensions, weights and towed 

loads" section of chapter 8. 

  Distribution of loads:  distribute the 

load in the trailer so that the heaviest 

loads 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. 

  Dimension A  = 0.96 m 

  Driving advice 

 A towed vehicle must free wheel: 

gearbox in neutral. 

104

   Towing a trailer   

 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. 

  Brakes:  towing increases the braking 

distance. Drive at a moderate speed, 

change down early and brake 

gradually. 

Please contact a PEUGEOT dealer 

fi rst for further information. 

   Automatic adjustment 
 For vehicles with Xenon bulbs, and if 

the change in load makes it necessary, 

this system automatically corrects the 

height of the beam after approximately 

2 minutes. The driver is then assured 

of having optimum lighting and not 

causing a nuisance to other road 

users.     

 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, cutting off the air conditioning 

allows the engine power to be 

recovered, and therefore the towing 

speed to be signifi cantly increased 

(approximately 12 mph [20 km/h] 

more). Sequential control of the 

gearbox may also become unavailable. 

  Lighting 

  Bicycle carrier 

 Refer to the "Identifi cation 

features" section of chapter 8. 

 Refer to the "Steering wheel 

controls" section of chapter 3.   

    

 

When using a trailer connection, 

you must add a fuse. Refer to 

the "Changing a fuse" section of 

chapter 7.  

 If the coolant temperature warning light 

comes on, stop the vehicle and switch 

off the engine as soon as possible. 

  Tyres:  check the tyre pressures of 

the towing vehicle and of the trailer, 

observing the recommended pressure. 

  Side wind:  sensitivity to side wind is 

increased. Drive smoothly and at a 

moderate speed.      

  Towbar 

 We recommend the use of original 

PEUGEOT towbars, which have been 

tested for endurance from the design 

stage of your vehicle. 

 Towing equipment must be fi tted in 

accordance with the manufacturer's 

instructions, with particular attention to 

the towing capacities of your vehicle, 

the load towed, the nose weight and 

the electrical connection. As this fi tting 

should be carried out by a professional, 

we recommend that you entrust the 

fi tting of this equipment to a PEUGEOT 

dealer. 
 In accordance with the general 

instructions referred to above, we draw 

your attention to the risk connected 

with fi tting a towbar or other electrical 

accessory which is not recommended 

by the PEUGEOT network. Fitting such 

equipment could result in a failure of 

your vehicle's electronic system.

  Manual adjustment 
 Adjust your headlamps so as not to 

dazzle other road users. Check the 

electrical signalling of the trailer. 

 If you fi t a bicycle carrier on 

the tailgate, deactivate the 

rear wiper from the display's 

confi guration menu.  

105

    Roof bars    

ACCESSORIES

 USING ROOF BARS 

 To use the transverse roof bars, 

release the four locking levers located 

at the base of the feet of each bar. 
 From the left-hand side, slide them 

in their rails to the required notch, 

supporting the foot of the bar with two 

hands to slide it correctly. 

 Lock the four locking levers. 

 For greater ease, it is recommended 

that two people carry out these 

operations. 
 When the roof bars are not in use, 

position them at the rear stop to avoid 

excess consumption. 
 Use accessories recommended by 

Automobiles PEUGEOT and follow 

the fi tting instructions in the manual 

provided by the manufacturer of the 

load-carrying roof bars.  

   -

roof bars 

  Maximum authorised weight on the 

roof rack: 220 lbs. (100 kg)   

106

   Snow screen   

VERY COLD CLIMATE SCREEN

 If fi tted on your vehicle, this is a 

removable part which permits complete 

or partial covering of the front air intake 

(grille, ...) to favour the increase in the 

engine temperature when driving in 

very low temperatures and to prevent 

the entry of snow into the engine 

compartment. 

  FITTING 

   -  

Offer up the screen facing its 

centring pin  A  on the front bumper. 

  -  

Put it in place by pressing at each

 The tank must be fi lled with fuel with 

 the engine off . 
   -  

Open the fuel fi ller fl ap. 

  -  

Insert the key then turn it to the left. 

  -  

Remove the cap and attach it to 

the clip located on the inside of the 

fl ap.  

 It is usual to hear an air intake noise 

when opening the cap as there is a 

vacuum linked with the sealing of the 

fuel circuit. 
 A label on the inside of the fl ap 

indicates which type of fuel to use. 
 More than 5 litres of fuel must be 

added in order to be registered by the 

fuel gauge. 
 If you fi ll your tank, do not continue 

after the third cut-off of the pump 

nozzle. This could result in vehicle 

malfunctions.  

FILLING THE FUEL TANK 

  If the warning light fl ashes, this 

indicates a fuel gauge malfunction. 
 Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.   

 When the tank's minimum 

level is reached, this warning 

light comes on, accompanied 

by the message  "Fuel level 

low"  on the display. When 

this warning light fi rst comes on, you 

have  approximately 8 litres  left, 

depending on driving conditions and 

the engine. 
 Fill up with fuel as soon as possible to 

avoid running out. 
 Never continue to drive until you run 

out of fuel as this could damage the 

emission control and injection systems. 

  The capacity of the tank is 

approximately 18 gallons ( 80  litres). 
   -  After 

fi lling the tank, lock the cap 

and close the fl ap.   

  When the fuel fi ller fl ap is open, a
