Safety

When the system is regulating, the Active

Safety Brake system is automatically

deactivated.

regain grip. At the same time, the wheel with the

most grip is controlled in such a way as to

transmit as much torque as possible.

When moving, the system optimises wheel spin

to respond to the driver's requirements as fully

as possible.

However, it does not permit oﬀ-road driving

such as:

– driving on terrain which could damage the

underbody or strip away components (fuel

pipe, fuel cooler, etc.) due to obstacles or

stones in particular,

The system is not available:

– if the speed of the vehicle is above 43

(mode active up to 31 mph (50 km/h))

– driving on terrain with steep gradients and

poor grip,

– crossing a waterway.

mph (70 km/h),

– if the speed of the vehicle is being

controlled by the Adaptive Cruise Control,

depending on the type of gearbox.

Sand

This mode 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.

Hill Assist Descent

Control

System that provides assistance when

descending on loose or soft surfaces (gravel,

mud, etc.) or a steep gradient.

This system reduces the risk of slip or loss of

control of the vehicle when descending, whether

going forward or in reverse.

During a descent, it assists the driver in

maintaining a constant speed, depending on the

gear engaged, while progressively releasing the

brakes.

Switching on

By default, the system is not selected.

The state of the function is not saved when the

ignition is switched oﬀ.

The driver can select the system when the

engine is running, when the vehicle is stationary

or when moving at speeds up to approximately

31 mph (50 km/h).

(mode active up to 75 mph (120 km/h))

Do not use the other modes on sand as

the vehicle may become stuck.

You can deactivate the ASR and

DSC systems by turning the knob

to the "OFF" position.

The ASR and DSC systems will no longer

act on the operation of the engine or of the

brakes in the event of a change of trajectory.

These systems are reactivated automatically

from 31 mph (50 km/h) and whenever the

ignition is switched on.

For the system to activate, the slope

must be greater than 5 %.

The system can be used with the gearbox in

neutral.

Recommendations

Otherwise engage a gear corresponding to

the speed to prevent the engine stalling.

With an automatic gearbox, the system can

be used with the selector at N, D or R.

► To select the system, at speeds below

31 mph (50 km/h), press this button until

its green indicator lamp comes on; this lamp

appears in grey in the instrument panel.

The vehicle is designed principally to

drive on tarmac roads, but it allows you to

occasionally drive on other less passable

terrain.

Safety

► The system becomes active at speeds

below 19 mph (30 km/h); this lamp comes

on in green in the instrument panel.

► When the vehicle begins its descent, you can

release the accelerator and brake pedals; the

system regulates the speed:

– if the gearbox is in ﬁrst or second gear,

the speed decreases and the

indicator lamp ﬂashes rapidly,

– if the gearbox is in neutral or if the clutch pedal

is depressed, the speed decreases and the

indicator lamp ﬂashes slowly; in this case, the

maintained descent speed is lower.

On a descent, with the vehicle stationary, if you

release the accelerator and brake pedals, the

system will release the brakes to set the vehicle

gradually in motion.

Depending on the severity of the impact, the

pyrotechnic pretensioning system instantly

tightens the seat belts against the body of the

occupants.

The pyrotechnic pretensioning seat belts are

enabled when the ignition is on.

Force limiter

This system reduces the pressure of the seat

belt on the chest of the occupant, thus improving

their protection.

Oﬀ

► Press the button until its indicator lamp goes

oﬀ; the indicator lamp on the instrument panel

also goes oﬀ.

At speeds above 43 mph (70 km/h), the system

is automatically deactivated; the indicator lamp in

the button goes oﬀ.

Malfunction

If a fault occurs with the system, this

warning lamp comes on in green,

accompanied by the display of a message in the

instrument panel.

In the event of an impact

Depending on the nature and

seriousness of impacts, the pyrotechnic

pretensioner device may trigger before

and independently of airbag deployment.

Deployment of the pretensioners is

accompanied by a slight discharge of

harmless smoke and a noise, due to the

activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge

incorporated in the system.

In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes

on.

Following an impact, have the seat belt

system checked, and if necessary replaced,

by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualiﬁed

workshop.

Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualiﬁed workshop.

The brake lamps light up automatically when the Seat belts

system is regulating.

Inertia reel

If the speed exceeds 19 mph (30 km/h),

The seat belts are equipped with an inertia reel

regulation is paused automatically, the

indicator lamp goes back to grey in the

instrument panel, but the green indicator lamp in

the button remains on.

Regulation resumes automatically when the

speed falls below 19 mph (30 km/h) again, if the

slope and pedal release conditions are met.

You can depress the accelerator or brake pedal

again at any time.

which allows the strap length to automatically

adjust to your shape. The seat belt returns to its

storage automatically when it is not used.

The inertia reels are ﬁtted with a device which

automatically locks the strap in the event of a

collision, emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls

over. It can be released by pulling the strap ﬁrmly

and then releasing it so that it reels in slightly.

Pyrotechnic pretensioning

Front seat belts

The front seat belts are ﬁtted with a pyrotechnic

pretensioning system and force limiter.

This system improves safety in the event of a

frontal or side impact.
