AIR BAGS
The air bag system has been designed to maximise the safety of the
occupants in the event of serious collisions. It works in conjunction with
the pretensioning seat belts.
Front air bags
These are folded in the centre of the
steering wheel for the driver and in
the fascia for the front passenger.
They are deployed simultaneously,
except in cases where the passenger
air bag is disarmed.
Precautions regarding the
passenger air bag
disarm the air bag if you install a
rear-facing child seat,
activate the air bag for an adult
passenger.
Side air bags
Side air bags are incorporated into
the front seat back frame, on the
door side.
They are deployed independently of
each other, on whichever side the
collision occurs.
Disarming the passenger air bag
With the ignition off, insert the
ignition key into the passenger
air bag switch 1 and turn it to the
"OFF" position.
As soon as you remove the child
seat, turn the air bag switch to the
"ON" position to activate the air bag
again.
Disarming check
With the ignition switched
on (2nd notch), illumination of this warning light indicates that the passenger
air bag is disarmed (switch
in the "OFF" position).
The warning light remains on throughout the duration of disarming.

CRUISE CONTROL
The cruise control has a display on
the instrument panel which indicates
the programmed reference speed.
It enables the vehicle to maintain a
constant speed, programmed by the
driver.
In order to be programmed or activated, the vehicle speed must be
above 25 mph (40 km/h), with at least
fourth gear engaged.
SPEED LIMITER
This speed limiter indicates the status of selection of the function on the
instrument panel and displays the
programmed speed. The minimum
speed which can be programmed is
20 mph (30 km/h).
It prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed programmed by the
driver, this function remains active
regardless of any action on the brake
or clutch pedals. On the other hand,
pressing the accelerator pedal to the
point of resistance does not have any
effect. If the driver wishes to exceed
the programmed limit, he must force
the accelerator pedal travel beyond
this point of resistance.
76 78
On vehicles which are fitted with the speed limiter
and cruise control functions,
these functions cannot be
activated simultaneously.
Setting adjustments must be
made when stationary with the engine running, or while the vehicle
is moving.

INSTRUMENT PANEL
DISPLAY
After switching on the ignition, three
functions are shown in succession:
- service indicator,
- engine oil level indicator (Diesel),
- total distance recorder/total and trip
distances.
Note: the total and trip distances are
displayed for 30 seconds when the
ignition is switched off, on opening
the driver’s door, as well as on locking and unlocking the vehicle.
Service indicator
This is a visual reminder of when the
next service is due. This service is to
be carried out according to the manufacturer’s servicing schedule.
Operation
As soon as the ignition is switched
on and for 5 seconds, the spanner
symbolising "service operation" is lit.
The trip recorder display shows the
distance remaining (in round figures)
before the next service.
Example: 4,800 miles/km remain
before the next service is due. When
the ignition comes on and for 5 seconds the display shows:
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance recorder resumes normal operation
and the display shows the total or trip
distances.
The distance remaining before
the next service is less than
500 miles (1,000 km).
Example: 400 miles (900 km) remain
before the next service is due.
When switching on the ignition and
for 5 seconds, the display shows:
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance recorder resumes normal operation
and the symbol remains lit.
This indicates that a service should
be carried out shortly. The display
shows the total or trip distances.
The service is overdue.
Each time the ignition is switched on
and for 5 seconds, the symbol and
the excess distance flash.
Example: the service is overdue by
300 miles/km. The service should be
carried out very shortly.
When the ignition is switched on and
for 5 seconds, the display shows:
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance recorder resumes normal operation and
the symbol remains lit. The display
shows the total or trip distances.
Note: the spanner lights if the twoyear interval has been exceeded.

Resetting the service indicator
Your PEUGEOT dealer carries out
this operation after each service.
The reset procedure is as follows:
- Switch off the ignition.
- Press and hold button 1.
- Switch on the ignition.
The display begins a 10 second
countdown.
- Keep button 1 pressed for 10 seconds.
The display shows [= 0] and the
spanner disappears.
Engine oil level indicator
(Diesel)
When the ignition is switched on,
the engine oil level is indicated for
approximately 10 seconds, after the
service information.
Surplus of oil
Flashing of the six squares and displaying of "max" indicate a surplus of
oil which could damage the engine.
If the surplus of oil is confirmed by
a check using the dipstick, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer without delay.
Lack of oil
Flashing of the six segments and displaying of "min" indicate a lack of oil
which could damage the engine.
If the lack of oil is confirmed by a
check using the dipstick, it is essential that the level is topped up.
Oil level indicator fault
Flashing of the six segments indicates a malfunction of the oil level
indicator.
There is a risk of damage to the engine.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
The level read on the dipstick or on
the indicator will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and
the engine has been off for more
than 15 minutes.

RADIO
Notes on radio reception
Your car radio is subject to phenomena which do not affect domestic radio
sets. Both AM (MW/LW) and FM reception are subject to various forms
of interference. This is no reflection
on the quality of the equipment, but
is due to the nature of the signals and
the way in which they are transmitted.
On MW/LW, interference may be noticed when passing under high voltage
power lines or bridges, or in tunnels.
On FM, interference may be the result of increasing distance from the
transmitter, deflection of the signals
by obstacles (mountains, hills, buildings, etc.), or of being in an area
which is not covered by a transmitter.
Selecting radio mode
Audio RB3: press the
"SRC" button several
times in succession.
Audio RD3:
