Front seat belts with pre-tensioner and force limiter

Safety in the event of a frontal impact has been improved by the introduction of seat belts with pre-tensioner and force limiter connected to the front air bags. Depending on the seriousness of the impact, the pretensioning system instantly tightens the seat belts firmly against the bodies of the occupants.

The pre-tensioning seat belts are armed when the ignition is on.

The force limiter reduces the pressure of the seat belt on the body of the occupant in the event of an accident.

Rear seat belts with force limiter

The rear seats are all fitted with a three-point inertia reel seat belt.

Third rear central seat belt

pull the belt located between the two head restraints at the left rear,

insert the fixed buckle in the black clasp located on the left,

insert the sliding buckle in the red and black (movable) clasp.

To release it, press the black button of the locking clasp.

101

To be effective, a seat belt must be tightened as close to the body as possible.

Depending on the nature and seriousness of the impact, the pretensioners may be triggered before and independently of the air bags.

In all cases, the air bag warning light comes on.

After an impact, have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

The system has been designed to be fully operational for ten years.

For improved safety, have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer within ten years of purchase of the vehicle.

"PORSCHE TIPTRONIC system" AUTOMATIC GEARBOX

The four speed automatic gearbox offers a choice between the comfort of integral automatic operation, enhanced by a sport and a snow programme, or the pleasure of manual gear changing.

Gear selection gate

Move the lever in the gate to select a function.

Once the function is selected, the corresponding indicator light appears on the instrument panel screen.

S: sport programme.

: snow programme.

Park: to immobilise the vehicle and to start the engine, with the handbrake on or off.

Reverse: to reverse (select this function with the vehicle stationary, engine at idle).

Neutral: to start the engine and to park, with the handbrake on.

Note: if position N is inadvertently engaged while driving, allow the engine to return to idle before engaging function D to accelerate.

Drive: for driving in automatic mode.

Manual: for driving in manual mode.

Moving Off

With the engine running, to move off from position P:

it is essential to press the brake pedal to exit position P,

select function R, D or M, then gradually release the pressure on the brake pedal; the vehicle moves off immediately.

You can also move off from position N:

release the handbrake, with your foot on the brake,

select function R, D or M, then gradually release the pressure on the brake pedal; the vehicle moves off immediately.

WARNING

When the engine is at idle, brakes not applied, if function R, D or M is selected, the vehicle moves even without the accelerator being pressed.

For this reason, do not leave children unsupervised inside the vehicle, with the engine running.

When maintenance operations need to be carried out with the engine running, apply the handbrake and select position P.

Automatic operation

Automatic changing of the four gears:

select function D in the gate.

The gearbox always selects the most suitable gear according to the following parameters:

the style of driving,

the road profile,

the vehicle load.

The gearbox is then operating in autoadaptive mode, without any action on your part.

WARNING

Never select function N when the vehicle is moving.

Never select functions P or R unless the vehicle is stationary.

Never change betwen functions to optimise braking on a slippery surface.

Notes

For immediate maximum acceleration without touching the gear lever, press the accelerator pedal down as far as it will go (kickdown). The gearbox will automatically change down or maintain the gear selected until maximum engine speed is reached.

When the brake is applied, the gearbox will automatically change down in order to provide efficient engine braking.

If you take your foot off the accelerator suddenly, the gearbox will not change to a higher gear for reasons of safety.

15-07-2002

Sport and snow programmes

In addition to the auto-adaptive programme, there are two special programmes.

The programme is displayed on the instrument panel screen.

Sport programme

Press button S once the vehicle has been started and function D selected.

The gearbox automatically favours sporty driving and more dynamic acceleration.

Snow programme

This programme improves starting and drive when traction is poor.

Press button once the vehicle has been started and function D selected.

The gearbox adapts to driving on slippery roads.

Note: you can return to the auto-adap- tive programme at any time.

Press button S or again to switch off the programme you are in.

Manual operation

Manual changing of the four gears:

select function M in the gate,

push the lever to the + sign to change to a higher gear,

pull the lever to the - sign to change to a lower gear.

You can change from position D (driving in automatic mode) to position M (driving in manual mode) at any time.

Notes

It is only possible to change from one gear to another if the vehicle speed and engine speed permit. If they do not, the vehicle will operate temporarily in automatic mode.

When the vehicle is stationary or moving very slowly, the gearbox automatically selects gear M1.

Programmes S (sport) and (snow) do not operate in manual mode.

Operating abnormality

Any operating abnormality is shown by illumination of this warning light, accompanied by an audible signal and the message 'Automatic gearbox faulty' on the

multi-function display.

In this situation the gearbox operates in downgrade mode (locked in 3rd gear). You may feel a substantial knock when selecting reverse from P to R and from N to R (this will not cause any damage to the gearbox).

Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h).

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.

If the battery is flat and the lever is in position P, it will be impossible to change to another position.

MANUAL GEARBOX

Reverse

To change to reverse gear, lift the ring under the gear lever knob and push the gear lever to the left then to the front.

Reverse gear can only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary with the engine idling.

ABS ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM

The ABS with Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBFD) increases the stability and manoeuvrability of your vehicle, particularly on poor or slippery road surfaces.

Note: 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.

Illumination of this warning light, accompanied by an audible signal and the message "Braking fault" on the multi-function display, indi-

cates a malfunction of the electronic brake force distribution, which can cause a loss of control of the vehicle when braking.

Stop immediately.

Contact 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

In an emergency, this system enables the optimum braking pressure to be reached more quickly, thus reducing the stopping distance.

It is triggered according to the speed of activation of the brake pedal. The effect of this is a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an increase in braking efficiency.
