Make a careful note of the number on each key. The key number is coded on the label attached to the key. If
the key is lost, your PEUGEOT dealer can rapidly supply you with new keys.
The high-frequency remote control is a high-performance system.
Do not operate it while it is in your pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock your vehicle without your knowledge.
The remote control cannot operate if the key is in the ignition, even if the ignition is switched off, except for reprogramming.
Do not operate the deadlock if there is someone inside the vehicle.
As a safety measure (when there are children on board), remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle, even for a
short time.
Do not handle the buttons of your remote control when out of range of your vehicle as you run the risk of stopping it from
working.
It would then be necessary to reprogramme the remote control.
When buying a second-hand car:
– ensure that you are in possession of the confidential card;
– have the key codes memorised by a PEUGEOT dealer, to ensure that the keys in your possession are the only ones
that can start your vehicle.
Do not make any modifications to the electronic engine immobiliser system.

''Isofix'' mountings*
Available on the one third side of the
rear seat, the Isofix mountings allow
fitting of a special child seat,
approved for PEUGEOT vehicles
and sold within its network.
The locks incorporated in the child
seat fit onto the Isofix mountings and
ensure safe, reliable and fast assembly.
The special child seat approved by
PEUGEOT is the KIDDY Isofix seat.
It can be used in the rearwards
facing position from birth to 13 kg
and in the forwards facing position
from 9 to 18 kg.
In the forwards facing position, the
front seat must be in the intermediate longitudinal position, with
the seat back upright.
In this position, the combined use of
the Isofix mountings, the restraining
cushion and the seat belt is compulsory.
This seat may also be used where
there are no Isofix mountings: in this
case it is compulsory to wear a
three-point seat belt.
☞ Follow the instructions in the
brochure for fitting the child
seat.
* According to current legislation

CHILD SEATS
Although one of PEUGEOT's main concerns 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 10 must travel in a special approved child seat*, adapted to their weight, in a seat fitted with
a seat belt.
- Front passenger seat*: children under the age of 10 must not travel in the forwards facing position**.
The rearwards facing position is permitted. In this position, it is compulsory to disarm the passenger air bag.
After carrying out numerous tests, PEUGEOT recommends the following systems:
Up to 18 months (up to 13 kg)
"Britax Babysure": installed with its back to the engine in the front or in the rear using a three-point seat belt.
In the front, the passenger seat must be in the 'mid-way' position on the slide.
From 9 months to 3 or 4 years (9 to 18 kg)
"Römer Prince": installed in the rear using a three-point seat belt.
For the safety of your child, the seat and the restraining cushion must never be separated.
From 3 to 6 years (15 to 25 kg)
"Römer Vario'': installed in the rear with a three point seat belt.

Never leave a child or an
animal in a vehicle which
is exposed to the sun and
has the windows closed.
Never leave the keys within reach
of children inside the car.
Disarm the passenger air bag
when installing a rearwards–facing child seat in the front.
The child would risk being killed or
seriously injured if the air bag
were to inflate.
Observe strictly the recommendations for assembling or attaching
the child seat as shown in the
child seat instructions.
From 3 to 10 years (15 to 36 kg)
''Recaro start'': installed in the rear with a three–point seat belt.
The height and width of the seat back must be adjusted according to the age
and build of your child.
"Klippan Optima": installed in the rear with a three–point seat belt.
From the age of 6 years (approximately 22 kg), the booster is used on its
own.
Remember, even for short journeys, to fasten the three-point seat belts or the
child seat straps, keeping the slack in relation to the child's body to a minimum.
To prevent the doors from opening accidentally, use the child-lock.
Also, do not open the rear windows more than a third.
* According to current legislation in the country of destination.
** Unless the rear seats are already occupied by other children or the rear seats
cannot be used (because they are missing or folded down). In this case,
adjust the front passenger seat to the rear-most position and leave the air bag
active.

SEAT BELTS
To adjust the height of the front
seat belts
Pinch control 1 and slide it.
To lock the seat belts
Pull the strap, then insert the buckle
into the stalk.
Pre-tensioning and force-limiting
front seat belts
Safety in the event of a frontal impact
has been improved by the introduction of pre-tensioning and force-limiting front seat belts. Depending on
the seriousness of the impact, the
pre-tensioning system instantly tightens the seat belt firmly against the
body of the occupant.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are
active when the ignition is on.
The force-limiting device reduces the
pressure of the seat belt against the
occupant's body in the event of an
accident.
Rear seat belts
The three rear seats are all fitted with
three-point inertia reel belts.
YOUR 406 IN DETAIL
121
To be effective, a seat
belt must be tightened as
close to the body as possible.
Depending on the nature and the
seriousness of the impact, the
pre-tensioners may be triggered
before and independently of the
air bags.
In all cases, the air bag warning
light comes on.
Following a collision, have the
system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
The system has been designed to
be fully operational for ten years.
Have it replaced after this period.

Do not use cruise control
on slippery roads or in
heavy traffic.
CRUISE CONTROL
Cruise control enables the vehicle to maintain a steady speed programmed by the driver, regardless of the road characteristics and without the
driver having to touch the accelerator or brake pedals.
In order for it to be memorised, the vehicle speed must be greater than
25 mph (40 km/h) and 4th or 5th gear must be engaged.
Operation
☞ Place switch 1 in the ON position.
A speed can now be memorised.
☞ Place switch 1 in the OFF position to de-activate the system.
Memorising a speed
As soon as you reach the chosen speed, press button 2 or 3. This memo-
rises the speed, which will be maintained automatically.
Note: It is possible to accelerate momentarily without disarming the
cruise control.
Cancelling the memorised speed
If you wish to cancel the memorised speed:
☞ Press button 4 or the brake or clutch pedal.
Recalling the memorised speed
After cancelling, press button 4. Your vehicle will return to the
last memorised speed.
Changing a memorised speed
To memorise a speed higher
than the previous one:
☞ press button 3;
☞ release it when you have rea-
ched the required speed.
To memorise a speed lower than
the previous one:
☞ press button 2;
☞ release it when you have rea-
ched the required speed.
Cancelling the cruise control
☞ place switch 1 in the OFF
position or switch off the ignition.
