RADIO  
Notes on radio reception  
Your radio is subject to phenomena which do not affect domestic sets. Both MW/LW and FM reception are subject  
to various forms of interference which are no reflection on the quality of your set, but are due to the nature of the  
signals and the way in which they are transmitted.  
On MW/LW, interference may be noticed when passing underneath high voltage power lines or bridges or through  
tunnels.  
On FM, interference may be the result of increasing distance from the transmitter, reflection of the signal by  
obstacles (mountains, hills, buildings etc), or of being in an area which is not covered by a transmitter.  
Selecting the radio  
Press the "SRC" button, until the radio is selected.  
Selecting a waveband  
By short presses on the "BND/AST" button, you can select the FM1, FM2, FM3 and AM wavebands.  
Automatic station search  
Briefly press button “J” or “K” to search for the station immediately above or below. By continuing to press the  
button in the direction selected, you will obtain continous scrolling of the frequency.  
The scrolling stops at the first station found as soon as you release the button.  
If the TA traffic programme is selected, only stations broadcasting this type of programme are selected.  
Searching for a station occurs first in “LO” sensitivity (selection of the most powerful transmitters) during  
scanning of the waveband, then in “DX” sensitivity (selection of the weakest and most distant transmitters).  
Manual station search  
Press the “MAN” button.  
Briefly press button “J” or “K” respectively to increase or reduce the frequency displayed.  
By continuing to press the button in the direction selected, you will obtain continuous scrolling of the frequency.  
Scrolling stops as soon as you release the button.  
Pressing the “MAN” button again returns you to automatic station search.

Adjustment of front seats  
Front head restraints  
Height adjustment: slide the head  
restraint.  
The adjustment is correct when the  
upper edge of the head restraint is  
at the same height as the top of the

excessive movement of the head  
rearwards, in cases of rear impact.  
Adjustment of angle*: tilt the head  
restraint.  
To remove the head restraint: posi-  
tion it at maximum height, press the  
two lugs then remove the head  
restraint.  
Forwards/backwards adjustment:  
lift control 1, slide the seat, then let go to lock.  
Adjustment of seat back:  
push control 2 rearwards to obtain the required angle.  
Access to rear seats: (3 doors)  
raise control 3 or push control 2 towards the front.  
Tilt the back of the seat, then pull the seat forward.  
The position of the seats is memorised*. To put them back as they were  
before, you need only return them to the original position.  
The storage compartment for the handbook and Warranty book is located under the  
front right-hand seat*.  
Warning: never drive with the head  
restraints removed; they must be in

Never leave a child in a  
vehicle which is  
exposed to the sun and  
has the windows  
closed.  
To protect young children from  
the sun, fit sunblinds to the rear  
windows.  
Never leave the keys in the  
reach of children inside the car.  
Strap children into their child  
seats even on short journeys.  
Child seats  
This was one of PEUGEOT’s main criteria when designing your vehicle, however the  
safety of your children also depends on you.  
For maximum peace of mind, please follow these simple precautions:  
All children under the age of 10 are required to travel in approved child safety seats*,  
fitted with seat belts.  
After carrying out numerous tests, PEUGEOT recommend the following systems:  
Up to 9 months (up to 22 lbs. or 10 kg)  
1
«Baby Safe», a seat secured with its back to the engine and secured with a three-  
point seat belt, on either the front or rear seat.  
From 9 months to 3 or 4 years (20 to 40 lbs. or 9 to 18 kg)  
2
«Römer Peggy» is fitted to the rear seat with a two-point (lap-belt) or three-point  
belt.  
From 3 to10 years of age (33 to 80 lbs or 15 to 36 kg)  
Observe the precautions concer-  
ning the passenger airbag.  
3
«Klippan Optima» : is fitted in the rear with a three point belt (removable seatback).  
from 33 to 55 lbs. [15 to 25 kg] : booster + seatback.  
from 55 to 80 lbs. [25 to 36 kg] : use the booster on its own.  
For maximum safety, fasten the three-point seat belts or the child seat straps keeping  
the slack in relation to the child’s body to a minimum, even for short journeys.  
To prevent the doors from opening accidentally: use the child-proof lock.  
Also, do not open the rear windows more than a third.  
* According to current legislation.

Pre-tensioning and force-  
limiting front seat belts*  
To be effective, a seat  
belt must be tensioned  
as close to the body as  
possible.  
1
Safety in the event of a front 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  
belts firmly against the body of the  
occupant.  
Depending on the nature and  
seriousness of the impact the  
pre-tensioning system may be  
triggered before and indepen-  
dently of the airbags.  
In all cases, the airbag warning  
light comes on.  
Following an impact, have the  
system checked by a PEUGEOT  
dealer.  
The pre-tensioning seat belts are  
armed when the ignition is on.  
The system has been designed  
to be fully operational for ten  
years. Have it replaced at the end  
of this period.  
Seat belts (5-door):  
To adjust the height of the front  
seat belts*:  
Pull control 1 towards you and slide it.  
To fasten the seat belts:  
Pull the strap, then insert the end  
into the buckle.

You can store up to 5 keys.  
If you require an additional key or

The airbag system has been desi-  
gned to maximise the safety of the  
occupants in the event of serious  
collisions. It works in conjunction  
with the seat belts.  
The electronic detectors register and  
analyse any abrupt deceleration of  
the vehicle; if the triggering threshold  
is reached the airbags inflate instant-  
ly and come between the occupants  
and the vehicle.  
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 airbag is  
disarmed), for frontal impacts where  
there is a risk of injury to the head or  
chest.  
AIR  
BAG  
- One of these two warning  
lights* on the instrument  
panel is lit throughout the  
disarming process.  
Immediately after the impact, the air-  
bags deflate rapidly, so that they do  
not hinder the visibility of the occu-  
pants and their exit if necessary from  
the vehicle.  
The airbags are not deployed in the  
case of collisions which are not  
serious, for which the seat belt is suf-  
ficient to ensure maximum protec-  
tion. The seriousness of a collision  
depends on the nature of the obs-  
tacle and the speed of the vehicle at  
the moment of the collision.  
In the “OFF” position, the passenger  
airbag will not be triggered in the  
event of an impact.  
As soon as you remove the  
rearwards-facing child seat from the  
front passenger seat, turn the airbag  
switch to the “ON” position, to arm  
the airbag and thus ensure the  
safety of your passenger in an  
impact.

Airbags only operate when the  
ignition is switched on.  
Note: the gas escaping from the  
cushion can be a minor irritant.  
Disarming the passenger  
airbag*  
To ensure the safety of your child,  
it is essential to disarm the pas-  
senger airbag when you install a  
rearwards-facing child seat on the  
front passenger seat.

Operation of the airbags is indicated by the warning light on the instrument  
panel.  
If the passenger airbag is armed (passenger airbag switch in the "ON" posi-  
Vehicle fitted with a passenger

tion), the warning light will come on for six seconds when the ignition is switched on.  
If the warning light:  
- does not come on when the ignition is switched on or,  
- does not switch off after six seconds or,  
- flashes for five minutes then remains on.  
Consult your PEUGEOT dealer.  
- disarm the airbag  
if you install a  
rearwards-facing  
child seat on the  
front passenger  
seat,  
- arm the airbag  
when you trans-  
port an adult on  
the front pas-  
senger seat.  
SIDE AIR BAGS*  
The side airbags are incorporated in the backrest frames of the front seat, on the  
side nearest the door.  
They are triggered independently of each other depending on the side on which the  
collision occurs, in the case of side impacts which could cause injury to the thorax,  
the abdomen and the head.  
Vehicle not fitted with a passenger  
airbag disarming switch:  
- do not install a rear-  
wards-facing child seat  
on the front passenger  
seat.  
Never place your feet or any object  
on the fascia.

WARNING  
For the front and side airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:  
•
•
•
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.  
Sit in a normal upright position.  
Do not leave an accessory, or any other object between the occupants of the front seats and the airbags. It could hamper  
the operation of the airbags or injure the occupants.  
•
•
•
All work on the airbag system is strictly forbidden unless it is carried out by qualified personnel of the PEUGEOT network.  
After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen or broken into, have the airbag systems checked.  
The airbag systems have been designed to be fully operational for 10 years after the vehicle has been registered. Have  
them replaced by a PEUGEOT dealer after this period.

•
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre part of the wheel.  
Smoke as little as possible; deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe.  
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.  
•
Side airbags*  
•
•
Never put covers on the front seats.  
Do not fix or glue anything to the front seat backrests. This could cause injury to the chest or arms when the side airbag  
inflates.  
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.
