INSTALLING CHILD SEATS WITH A STAY

Precautions must be taken when installing a child seat with a stay (or drop down leg). In particular, take care when there is a
storage compartment present in the rear footwells.

Do not place the stay on the

storage compartment cover,
it could break in a serious im-

pact. Where the range of adjustment
for the stay allows, we suggest two
other possibilities for installation.

At the bottom of the storage
compartment

If the stay is long enough, you can place
it in contact with the bottom of the stor-

age compartment. Remove all objects

before installing the stay.

Outside the storage
compartment area

One other possibility, where the stay is

long enough and can be inclined sufﬁ -

ciently (while observing the recommen-

dations in the ﬁ tting instructions for the

child seat), is to position the stay so that

it is in contact with the ﬂ oor away from

the storage compartment. Remember

to use the adjustment of the seat posi-
tion to obtain a satisfactory position for
the stay which is away from the storage
compartment.

If you cannot ﬁ t the stay in

the way described, we recom-

mend that you do not ﬁ t a child

seat with a stay in this position.

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 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 rm-

ly 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.

  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.
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 win-
dows 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 oc-
cupied  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.

115

"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS

Your vehicle has been approved in ac-

cordance with the latest ISOFIX regu-
lation s .
The seats, represented below, are ﬁ tted

with regulation ISOFIX mountings:

There are three rings for each seat:
-

two rings A , located between the
vehicle seat back and cushion, indi-
cated by a label,

a ring B , behind the seat, referred to
as the TOP TETHER

for ﬁ xing the

upper strap.

This ISOFIX mounting system provides

fast, reliable and safe ﬁ tting of the child

seat in your vehicle.

The ISOFIX child seats

are ﬁ tted with

two latches which are easily secured on
the two rings A .

Some also have an upper strap which
is attached to ring B .

To attach this strap, raise the vehicle
seat's head restraint then pass the hook

between its rods. Then ﬁ x the hook on

ring  B  and tighten the upper strap.
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 showing
the locations for installing ISOFIX child
seats.

116

This child seat can also be
used on seats which are not

ﬁ tted with ISOFIX mountings.

In this case, it must be attached to
the vehicle seat using the three point
seat belt.

Follow the instructions for ﬁ tting

the child seat given in the seat
manufacturer's installation guide.

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION

System which automatically checks the
pressure of the tyres while driving.

All repairs and changing of

tyres on a wheel ﬁ tted with this

system must be carried out by
a PEUGEOT dealer.

If, when changing a tyre, you install
a wheel which is not detected by

your vehicle (example: ﬁ tting of snow

tyres), you must have the system re-
initialised by a PEUGEOT dealer.

  This  system  does  not  avoid
the  need  to  have  the  tyre
pressures  checked  regularly

(refer to the "Identiﬁ cation markings"

section)  to  ensure  that  the  optimum
dynamic  performance  of  the  vehicle
is maintained and prevent premature
wear of the tyres, particularly in ardu-
ous  driving  conditions  (heavy  load,
high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold,  at  least  once  a  month.  Re-
member to check the pressure of the
spare wheel.
The  tyre  under-inﬂ ation  detection

system  may  experience  temporary
interference  due  to  electromagnetic
emissions  on  a  frequency  close  to
that used by the system.

Sensors ﬁ tted in each valve trigger a

warning in the event of malfunction
(speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).
The spare wheel is not ﬁ tted with a sensor.

This warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the multifunction screen,
accompanied by an audible signal, to
identify the wheel concerned.

 Check the tyre pressures as soon

as possible.

This check must be carried out when the tyres are cold.

Under-inﬂ ated tyre

The STOP warning lamp
comes

on,

accompanied

by  an  audible  signal  and  a
message  in  the  multifunc-
tion  screen  identifying  the
wheel concerned.

 Stop as soon as it is safe to do so,

avoiding any sudden movement of
the steering wheel and the brakes.

 Change the damaged wheel (punc-

tured or very deﬂ ated tyre), and

have the tyre pressure checked as
soon as possible.

Puncture

The tyre under-inﬂ ation detec-

tion system is an aid to driv-
ing which does not replace the

need for the driver to be vigilant or to
drive responsibly.

Sensor(s) not detected or faulty

A  message  appears  in  the  multifunc-
tion screen, accompanied by an audible
signal,  to  identify  the  wheel  or  wheels
which are not  detected  or to indicate  a
fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace
the faulty sensor(s).

This message is also dis-
played when one of the wheels
is away from the vehicle (be-

ing repaired) or when one or more

wheels without a sensor are ﬁ tted.

121

ELECTRONIC STABILITY
PROGRAMME (ESP)

Electronic stability programme (ESP)
incorporating the following systems:
-

the anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and the electronic brake force distri-
bution system (EBFD),

the emergency braking assistance,

the traction control (ASR),

the dynamic stability control (DSC).

Definitions

  Anti-skid regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also  known  as Trac-
tion Control) optimises traction in order
to  avoid  wheel  slip  by  acting  on  the
brakes of the driving wheels and on the
engine. It also improves the directional
stability of the vehicle on acceleration.

  Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed  by  the  vehicle  and  that  re-
quired  by the  driver, the  DSC  monitors
each  wheel  and  automatically  acts  on
the  brake  of  one  or  more  wheels  and
on  the  engine  to  return  the  vehicle  to
the required path, within the limits of the
laws of physics.

  Emergency braking assistance
In  an  emergency,  this  system  enables
you to reach the optimum braking pres-
sure more quickly and therefore reduce
the stopping distance.
It is triggered in relation to 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 effec-
tiveness of the braking.

  Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and
electronic brake force distribution
system (EBFD)
This  system  improves  the  stability  and
manoeuvrability  of  your  vehicle  when
braking  and  offers  improved  control,  in
particular on poor or slippery road sur-
faces.
The  ABS  prevents  wheel  lock  in  the
event of emergency braking.
The  electronic  brake  force  distribution
system  manages  the  braking  pressure
wheel by wheel.

When this warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message, it indi-
cates that there is a fault with the

ABS, which could cause loss of control of
the vehicle when braking.

When this warning lamp comes
on, coupled with the STOP
warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal and a mes-

sage, it indicates that there is a fault with
the electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD), which could cause loss of control
of the vehicle when braking.

  You  must  stop  as  soon  as  it  is  safe
to do so.
In  both  cases,  contact  a  PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualiﬁ ed workshop.

When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that
these are approved for your
vehicle.

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

In emergency braking, press

very ﬁ rmly without releas-

ing the pressure.

122

Dynamic stability control
(DSC)

The DSC system offers excep-
tional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage

the driver to take extra risks or drive
at high speed.
The correct functioning of the system
depends on observation of the ma-
nufacturer's

recommendations

re-

garding  the  wheels  (tyres  and  rims),
the braking components, the electron-
ic components and the assembly and
repair procedures used by PEUGEOT
dealers.
After  an  impact,  have  the  system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

   Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a ve-
hicle  which  is  bogged  down,  stuck  in
snow,  on  soft  ground...),  it  may  be  ad-
visable  to  deactivate  the  DSC  system,
so that the wheels can move freely and
regain grip.

 Press the "ESP OFF"

button  or,  according  to
version,  turn  the  dial  to
this position.

This warning lamp and the in-
dicator  lamp  on  the  button  or
on the dial come on: the DSC
system  no  longer  acts  on  the
operation of the engine.

Reactivation
The system is reactivated automatically
each time the ignition is switched back

on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).

Operating fault

If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message on the mul-
tifunction screen, this indicates
a malfunction of the system.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the
system checked.

This is indicated by ﬂ ashing of

this warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel.

Activation
This system is activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
It comes into operation in the event of a
grip or trajectory problem.

 Press the "ESP OFF" but-

ton  again  or,  according  to
version, turn the dial to this
position,  to  reactivate  it
manually.

123

GRIP CONTROL

ESP mode

 Place the dial in this position.

Snow mode

Special  patented  traction  control  sys-
tem  which  improves  traction  on  snow,
mud and sand.
This  system  is  combined  with  all-sea-

son M+S (Mud and Snow: 215/60 R16)

tyres  which  offer  an  excellent  compro-
mise between safety, grip and traction.
This  system,  the  operation  of  which
has  been  optimised  for  each  situation,
allows you to manoeuvre in most condi-
tions  of  poor  grip  (encountered  during
touring use).
The accelerator pedal should be pressed

sufﬁ ciently to allow the system to use

the power of the engine. The electronics
will ensure optimum management of the
various  parameters.  Operation  at  high
engine speeds is completely normal.
Each  time  the  ignition  is  switched  off,
the  system  returns  to  standard  mode
(ESP).

Standard mode which is calibrated for
a low level of wheel spin, based on the
different levels of grip normally encoun-
tered on the road.

Mode which adapts its strategy to the
conditions of grip encountered for each
of the two front wheels on moving off.
When moving, the system optimises
wheel spin to provide the best accelera-
tion possible for the grip available.

 Place the dial in this position.

124

All-terrain mode (mud, wet grass, ...)

Mode  which,  when  moving  off  allows
considerable spin on the wheel with the
least grip to optimise clearing of the mud
and  regain  grip. At  the  same  time,  the
wheel with the most grip is controlled in
such a way as to pass as much torque
as possible.
When  moving,  the  system  optimises
wheel spin to respond to the driver's re-
quirements as fully as possible.

Sand mode

Mode which allows little spin on the two
driving wheels at the same time to allow
the vehicle to move forward and limit
the risks of getting stuck in the sand.

Driving advice
Your vehicle is designed princi-
pally to drive on tarmac roads

but it allows you to drive on other less
passable terrain occasionally.
However, it does not permit all-
terrain activities such as:
-

crossing  and  driving  on  terrain
which  could  damage  the  under-
frame  or  strip  away  components
(fuel  pipe,  fuel  cooler,  ...)  due  to
obstacles or stones in particular,

driving on terrain with steep gra-
dients and poor grip,

crossing a stream.

 Place the dial in this position.

ESP OFF mode

 Place the dial in this po-

sition.

Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck.

This mode is active up to 30 mph (50 km/h).
