Get Safety -> Driving safely Guide for Peugeot Boxer Van First Generation (1994-2002)

Seat belts

The force limiter reduces the pressure of the

seat belt against the body of the occupants.

If the seats are fitted with armrests, the lap

part of the seat belt should always pass

under the armrest.

Good practice

The driver must ensure that passengers use

the seat belts correctly and that they are all

strapped in securely before moving off.

The pretensioning seat belts are active when

the ignition is switched on.

Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly

by pulling the strap firmly.

The inertia reels are fitted with a device

which automatically locks the strap in the

event of a collision or emergency braking or

if the vehicle rolls over.

Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,

always fasten your seat belt, even for short

journeys.

Recommendations for children:

-

use a suitable child seat if the

passenger is less than 12 years old or

shorter than one metre fifty,

The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel

which automatically adjusts the length of the

strap to your size.

You can unfasten the seat belt by pressing

the red button on the buckle. Guide the seat

belt after unfastening.

-

never allow a child to travel on your lap,

even with the seat belt fastened.

Do not use accessories (clothes pegs, clips,

safety pins, etc.) which permit a clearance

with the seat belt straps.

For more information on child seats,

refer to the "Child safety" section of

chapter 5.

The airbag warning lamp comes

on if the pretensioners are

triggered. Consult a PEUGEOT

dealer.

Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in

correctly after use.

After folding or moving a seat or a rear

bench seat, ensure that the seat belt has

reeled in correctly and that the buckle is

ready to accommodate the tongue.

Your PEUGEOT dealer can ensure that

all work or any checks, from testing to

maintenance on your seat belt equipment

meets current regulations.

In order to be effective, a seat belt must:

-

restrain one person only,

Depending on the nature and seriousness

of any impact, the pretensioning device may

be triggered before and independently of

inflation of the airbags. It instantly tightens

the seat belts against the body of the

occupants.

must not be twisted, check by pulling in

front of you with an even movement,

Have the seat belts checked regularly

(even after a minor impact) by a PEUGEOT

dealer: they must not show any signs of

wear, cutting or fraying and they must not be

converted or modified.

-

be tightened as close to the body as

possible.

The upper part of the seat belt should be

positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.

Triggering 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.

The lap part should be placed as low as

possible on the pelvis.

Clean the seat belt straps with soapy

water or a textile cleaning product, sold

by PEUGEOT dealers.

Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they

will not fulfil their role completely.

Improved safety and security

IMPROVED SAFETY AND SECURITY

IMPACT RESISTANCE

ANTI-THEFT PROTECTION

Your vehicle, in the van version, comprises

two zones with separate locking: the cab

and the load space.

Your vehicle has been designed to limit

the forces on the passenger compartment

as much as possible in the event of a

collision, the engine compartment adopts

a progressive deformation structure and

the front doors have been reinforced to

contribute to the rigidity of the whole.

An exterior protection alarm with anti-tilt

detection is available (as standard or as an

option) in certain countries.

Depending on the way in which it is used,

this function provides increased protection

both for your personal belongings and for

your merchandise.

Details of these functions are given in

part 2.

Airbags

AIRBAGS

The airbags have been designed to optimise

the safety of the occupants in the event of

a serious collision; they work in conjunction

with the force limiting seat belts.

deployed; the seat belts alone contribute

towards providing protection in these

situations.

Front airbags

These are fitted in the centre of the steering

wheel for the driver and in the dashboard

for the front passenger. They are deployed

simultaneously, except in cases where the

passenger airbag has been deactivated.

Airbags only operate when the ignition is

switched on.

In the event of a serious collision, electronic

detectors record and analyse any abrupt

deceleration of the vehicle:

Deployment of the airbags is

accompanied by a slight discharge

of smoke and a noise, resulting from the

activation of the pyrotechnic charge included

in the system.

-

in the event of a serious collision, the

airbags are deployed instantly and

contribute towards better protection of

occupants of the vehicle; immediately

after the impact, the airbags rapidly

deflate so as to not hinder visibility or

the possible exit by the occupants,

Front airbag fault

If this warning lamp comes on,

contact a PEUGEOT dealer to

have the system checked.

This smoke is not harmful but may be an

irritant to sensitive persons.

The noise of the detonation may result in a

slight loss of hearing for a short time.

-

in the event of a less serious impact,

an impact to the rear and in certain

conditions of rollover, the airbags are not

When OFF is selected, the passenger airbag

Lateral airbags and curtain airbags

will not be triggered in the event of an impact.

If your vehicle is fitted with lateral airbags,

these are fitted to the front seat backs on

the door side.

As soon as the child seat is removed, select

ON to re-activate the airbag and thus ensure

the safety of your passenger in the event of

an impact.

The curtain airbags are fitted to the door

pillars and the upper part of the passenger

compartment, in the roof over the front cab

seats.

Deactivation check

This is confirmed by lighting of

this warning lamp each time the

engine is started.

They inflate between the occupant and the

glass.

They are deployed independently of each

other depending on which side the collision

occurs.

Deactivating the passenger airbag

If your vehicle is fitted

with this screen, the

check is accompanied by

a message.

Refer to the "MODE" section of

chapter 4, then on the "Passenger

airbag" menu, select OFF.

Operating check

Confirmed by this indicator lamp.

The airbag warning lamp on the

instrument panel remains on while

the passenger airbag is deactivated.

To ensure the safety of your child, it is

essential to deactivate the passenger airbag

when you install a rear-facing child seat on

the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the

child would risk being killed or seriously

injured if the airbag were to inflate.

If your vehicle is not fitted with this

equipment: do not install a rear-facing child

seat.

5

Airbags

Good practice

Curtain airbags

If your vehicle is fitted with front, lateral

and curtain airbags, in order for these to

be fully effective, observe the following

safety rules:

Do not drive holding the steering wheel

by its spokes or resting your hands on the

centre part of the wheel.

Do not fix or attach anything to the pillars or

the roof. This could cause injury to the head

when the curtain airbag is deployed.

Passengers must not place their feet on the

dashboard.

Do not remove the bolts from the grab

handles installed on the roof, they play a

part in securing the curtain airbags.

Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.

Sit in a normal upright position.

Smoke as little as possible; deployment of

the airbags can cause burns or the risk of

injury from a cigarette or pipe.

Do not leave anything between the

occupants and the airbags (child, animal,

object...).

Never remove or pierce the steering wheel

or hit it violently.

This could hamper the operation of the

airbags or injure the occupants.

All work on the airbag systems is strictly

prohibited unless it is carried out by qualified

personnel of the PEUGEOT network.

Lateral airbags

Only put approved covers on the front seats.

Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.

After an accident or if the vehicle has been

stolen or broken into, have the airbag

systems checked.

Do not fix or attach anything to the front seat

backs. This could cause injury to the chest

or arms when the lateral airbag is deployed.

Do not sit with the upper part of the body

any nearer to the door than necessary.

Child safety

GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO

CHILD SEATS

Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria

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 12 or less

than one metre fifty tall must travel in

approved child seats suited to their

weight, on seats fitted with a seat belt or

ISOFIX mountings.

-

statistically, the safest seats in your

vehicle for carrying children are the rear

seats,

"Forwards-facing"

"Rearwards-facing"

Recommended on the rear seats

over the age of 2.

Recommended on the rear seats

up to the age of 2.

a child weighing less than 9 kg must

travel in the "rearwards-facing" position

both in the front and in the rear,

When a "forwards-facing" child

seat is installed on the front passenger seat,

leave the passenger airbag activated.

When a "rearwards-facing" child

seat is installed on the front passenger seat,

it is essential that the passenger airbag is

deactivated. Otherwise, the child would risk

being seriously injured or killed if the airbag

were to inflate.

the passenger must not travel with a

child on their lap.

5

Child safety

The child seats function and the

passenger airbag deactivation function

are common to the entire PEUGEOT range.

If the passenger airbag is not deactivated,

the installation of a "rearwards-facing" child

seat in the front is strictly prohibited.

Refer to chapter 5, "Airbags" section.

Passenger airbag OFF

If your vehicle is fitted with this function, the

passenger airbag must be deactivated using

the trip computer MODE button.

The rules for carrying children are

specific to each country. Consult the

current legislation in your country.

Please consult the list of seats approved

in your country. The Isofix mountings, the

rear seats, the passenger airbag and the

deactivation of this airbag depend on the

version sold.

by a label,

-

a rear ring, for securing the upper

strap referred to as the TOP TETHER,

indicated by another label.

This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,

reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in

your vehicle.

The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two

latches which are secured easily on the two

front rings.

Some also have an upper strap which is

attached to the rear ring.

Your vehicle has been approved

in accordance with the new

ISOFIX regulation.

To attach this strap, raise the vehicle seat's

head restraint then pass the hook between

its rods. Then fix the hook on the rear ring

and tighten the upper strap.

If fitted on your vehicle, the regulation

ISOFIX mountings are located by labels.

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a

Child safety

Deactivate the passenger's airbag when a

"rear facing" child seat is installed on the

front seat.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS

Installing a booster seat

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a

vehicle compromises the child's protection in

the event of an accident.

The chest part of the seat belt must be

positioned on the child's shoulder without

touching the neck.

Otherwise, the child would risk being

seriously injured or killed if the airbag were

to inflate.

Remember to fasten the seat belts or the

child seat harnesses keeping the slack in

relation to the child's body to a minimum,

even for short journeys.

Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt

passes correctly over the child's thighs.

PEUGEOT recommends the use of a

booster seat which has a back, fitted with a

seat belt guide at shoulder level.

As a safety precaution, do not leave:

-

one or more children alone and

unsupervised in a vehicle,

For optimum installation of the "forward

facing" child seat, ensure that the back of

the child seat is in contact with the back of

the vehicle's seat and that the head restraint

does not cause any discomfort.

-

a child or an animal in a vehicle which

is exposed to the sun, with the windows

closed,

-

the keys within reach of children inside

the vehicle.

If the head restraint has to be removed,

ensure that it is stored or attached securely

to prevent it from being thrown around the

vehicle in the event of sharp braking.

Crew cab

Do not install child seats, booster cushions

or carrycots on the rear seats of the cab.

To prevent accidental opening of the doors,

use the "Child Lock".

Children under the age of 10 must not travel

in the "forward facing" position on the front

passenger seat, unless the rear seats are

already occupied by other children, cannot

be used or are absent.

Take care not to open the rear windows by

more than one third.

To protect young children from the rays of

the sun, fit side blinds to the rear windows.

Towing a trailer

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...

For more information about weights,

refer to the administrative documents (V5

registration document, ...)

Distribution of loads: distribute the load in

the trailer so that the heaviest objects are as

close as possible to the axle and the nose

weight is close to the maximum authorised

without, however, exceeding it.

Driving advice

A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in

neutral.

6

Towing a trailer

Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope

increases the coolant temperature.

Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the

towing vehicle (see the "Identification

markings" section of chapter 9) and of

the trailer, observing the recommended

pressures.

We recommend the use of original

PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses,

which have been tested and approved from

the design stage of your vehicle and that

the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to a

PEUGEOT dealer.

As the fan is electrically controlled, its

cooling capacity is not dependent on the

engine speed.

On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the

engine speed and reduce your speed.

Brakes: towing increases the braking

distance. Drive at a moderate speed,

change down early and brake gradually.

In all cases, pay attention to the coolant

temperature.

If this equipment is not fitted by a PEUGEOT

dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted using

the electrical pre-equipment installed at the

rear of the vehicle and in accordance with

the manufacturer's instructions.

Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is

increased. Drive smoothly and at a

moderate speed.

Good practice

In certain cases of particularly arduous

use (towing the maximum load up a steep

slope in high temperatures), the engine

automatically limits its power. In this

case, the automatic cutting off of the air

conditioning allows the engine power to be

recovered.

ABS: the system only controls the vehicle,

not the trailer.

Rear parking sensors: the system does not

operate while the vehicle is towing.

If the coolant temperature

warning lamp comes on, stop the

vehicle and switch off the engine

as soon as possible.

See the "Levels" section of chapter 7.

Equipment
