Peugeot 1007 (2008 year). Manual

This message is also dis-
played when one of the

wheels is away from the vehi-

cle (being repaired) or when

one or more wheels without

a sensor are ﬁ tted.

The spare wheel is not ﬁ tted with a

sensor.

All repairs and changing of

tyres on a wheel ﬁ tted with

this system must be carried
out by a PEUGEOT dealer.

If, when changing a tyre, you install
a wheel which is not detected by

your vehicle (example: ﬁ tting of snow

tyres), you must have the system

reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer.

Puncture

This  warning  light  and  the
STOP   warning  light  come
on  on  the  instrument  panel,
accompanied  by  an  audible

signal  and  a  message  on  the  multi-
function  display  locating  the  wheel
concerned.
   

Stop

immediately,

avoiding

any sudden movement of the

steering wheel and the brakes.

 Change the damaged wheel

(punctured or very deﬂ ated

tyre), and have the tyre pressure

checked as soon as possible.

Sensor(s) not detected or faulty

This  warning  light  comes  on
on  the  instrument  panel,  ac-
companied  by  an  audible
signal and a message on the

multifunction display locating the wheel
or wheels which are not detected or in-
dicating a fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to re-

place the faulty sensor(s).

This system does not elimi-

nate the need to have the

tyre pressure checked regu-

larly (refer to the "Identiﬁ ca-

tion features" paragraph) to ensure

that the optimum dynamic perfor-

mance of the vehicle is maintained

and prevent premature wear of the

tyres, particularly in arduous driving

conditions (heavy load, high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Re-
member to check the pressure of the
spare wheel.
The tyre under-inﬂ ation detection

system may experience temporary

interference  due  to  radioelectric
emissions  on  a  frequency  close  to
that used by the system.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS) AND
ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE
DISTRIBUTION (EBFD)

The  ABS,  in  conjunction  with  the
electronic  brake  force  distribution,
increases  the  stability  and  manoeu-

vrability of your vehicle on braking,

in particular 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.

When

this

warning

light

comes on, accompanied by
a buzzer and a message, it
indicates that there is a mal-

function of the ABS, which can cause

a loss of control of the vehicle when

braking.

When

this

warning

light

comes  on,  connected  to  the
STOP   and   ABS   warning
lights,  accompanied  by  a

buzzer  and  a  message,  it  indicates
that  there  is  a  malfunction  of  the
electronic  brake  force  distribution,
which can cause a loss of control of

the vehicle when braking.

Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.

EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM

In an emergency, this system ena-
bles the optimum braking pressure to
be reached more quickly, thus redu-
cing the stopping distance.
It is triggered by the speed at which

the brake pedal is activated.
The effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an in-

crease in braking efﬁ ciency.
When braking in an emergency,

press ﬁ rmly without releasing the

pressure.

Normal operation of the ABS
may make itself felt by slight

vibrations of the brake pedal.

emergency

braking,

press very ﬁ rmly without

releasing the pressure.

If this warning light comes on on
the instrument panel and the in-
dicator light on the button comes
on, this indicates that the ASR
and ESP systems are disarmed.

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP)

Operation of the ASR and ESP
systems

The warning light ﬂ ashes if

the ASR or ESP is activated.

Disarming
In exceptional conditions (starting a

vehicle which is bogged down, stuck

in snow, on soft ground, ...), it may

be advisable to disarm the ASR and

ESP systems, so that the wheels can

move freely and regain grip.
 Press the "ESP OFF" button,

located in the centre of the
fascia.

Reactivation
These systems are reactivated au-

tomatically each time the ignition is

switched back on or from 30 mph

(50 km/h).
 Press the "ESP OFF" button again

to reactivate them manually.

Operating fault

If  this  warning  light  comes
on,  accompanied  by  an  au-
dible  signal  and  a  message
on  the  multifunction  display,

this indicates a malfunction of these
systems.
Have the systems checked by a

PEUGEOT dealer.

The ESP/ASR systems offer excep-

tional safety in normal driving, but

this should not encourage the driver

to take extra risks or drive at high

speed.
The correct functioning of these

systems depends on observation of

the manufacturer’s recommenda-

tions regarding the wheels (tyres

and rims), the braking components,

the  electronic  components  and  the
PEUGEOT   assembly  and  operation
procedures.
   After an impact, have these systems

checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

Activation of the ASR and ESP
systems
When the ignition is on, the ASR and

ESP systems are always active.

These systems are linked and com-
plement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to

prevent the wheels skidding, by acting

on the brakes of the drive wheels and

on the engine. It also allows the direc-

tional stability of the vehicle to be im-

proved on acceleration.

If there is a variation between the tra-

jectory followed by the vehicle and

that required by the driver, the ESP

system automatically acts on the en-
gine and the brake of one or more

wheels, in order to put the vehicle

back on course, within the limits of
the laws of physics.

SEAT BELTS

Additional seat belt warnings

carried out with the door closed

to avoid any risk of trapping.

 Insert the buckle in the stalk.
 Check that the seat belt is fas-

tened correctly by pulling the
strap.

Unfastening
 Press the red button on the

stalk.

Front seat belts

Safety in the event of a frontal impact

has been improved by the introduc-

tion of pre-tensioning and force-li-
miting front seat belts. Depending
on the seriousness of the impact, the
pre-tensioning system instantly tight-

ens the seat belts ﬁ rmly against the

body of the occupant.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are
armed when the ignition is on.
The force-limiting device reduces the

pressure of the seat belt against the

occupant’s body in the event of an

accident.

Seat belt not fastened warning

If the driver and/or the

front

passenger

has

not  fastened  his  seat
belt,  the  corresponding
warning  light  comes

on when the ignition is on, then, at a

speed above 12 mph (20 km/h), this

is accompanied by an audible signal

the volume of which increases (for ap-

proximately two minutes) and a mes-

sage on the multifunction display.
Note: a bag or an animal placed on
the front passenger seat may trigger
lighting of the warning light.

Seat belt unfastened warning

If the driver and/or one

of the passengers has
unfastened

his

seat

belt, the corresponding
warning light comes on

when the engine is running, then, at a

speed above 12 mph (20 km/h), this

is accompanied by an audible signal

the volume of which increases (for ap-

proximately two minutes) and a mes-

sage on the multifunction display.

Rear seat belts

The rear seats are ﬁ tted with two

three-point inertia reel seat belts.
The  retaining  of  the  rear  seat  belt
buckle  by  the  sliding  block  makes
folding  down  or  complete  folding  of
the seats easier.

Fastening
 Pull the strap, then insert the

buckle in the stalk.

 Check that the seat belt is

fastened correctly by pulling the
strap.

Unfastening
 Press the red button on the

stalk.

Version with colour display
If the driver and/or one of the pas-

sengers has not fastened (or has

unfastened) his seat belt, a message

appears on the multifunction display.

The driver must ensure that

passengers  use  the  seat
belts  correctly  and  that  they
are  all  restrained  securely
before setting off.

In order to be effective, a seat belt:
-

must be tightened as close to the
body as possible,

must restrain one person of adult
size only,

must not bear any trace of cuts
or fraying,

must be pulled in front of you with

a smooth movement, checking

that it does not twist,

must not be transformed or

modiﬁ ed to avoid altering its

performance.

In  accordance  with  current  safety
regulations,  all  repairs  and  checks
must be carried out by a  PEUGEOT
dealer who guarantees that the work
is carried out correctly.
Have your seat belts checked regu-

larly by a PEUGEOT dealer and par-
ticularly if the straps show signs of
damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy

water or a textile cleaning product,

sold by PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear

bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and rolled up correctly.

Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impacts , the pre-

tensioning device may be triggered

before and independently of the air
bags. Triggering of the pre-tensioners
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 air bag warning light
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat

belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer.

Wherever you are seated in the ve-

hicle, always fasten your seat belt,

even for short journeys.

Do not invert the seat belt buckles as

they will not fulﬁ l their role fully.

The seat belts are ﬁ tted with an inertia

reel  permitting  automatic  adjustment
of the length of the strap to your size.
The  seat  belt  is  stored  automatically
when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is rolled up correctly.
The  lower  part  of  the  strap  must  be
positioned as low as possible on the

pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in
the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are ﬁ tted with an au-

tomatic locking device which comes

into operation in the event of a colli-

sion, emergency braking or if the ve-

hicle rolls over. You can release the

device by pulling rapidly on the strap

and releasing it.

  Recommendations for children
Use  a  suitable  child  seat  if  the  pas-
senger  is  less  than  12  years  old  or

shorter than one metre ﬁ fty.

Never use the same seat belt to

secure more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your lap.

AIR BAGS

The air bags have been designed to

maximise the safety of the occupants

(with the exception of the rear centre

passenger) in the event of serious

collisions; they work in conjunction
with the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, the

electronic detectors record and ana-
lyse the front and side impacts suf-
fered in the impact detection zones

(see diagram): in the event of a se-

rious impact, the air bags inﬂ ate in-

stantly and protect the occupants of

the vehicle (with the exception of the

rear centre passenger).

Immediately after the impact, the air

bags deﬂ ate rapidly, so that they do

not hinder the visibility of the occu-

pants nor their possible exit from the

vehicle.
The air bags will not be deployed in
collisions which are not serious, rear

impacts or in certain roll-over con-

ditions. The seat belt is sufﬁ cient to

provide maximum protection in these

situations.
Air bags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
This equipment will only operate once.

If a second impact occurs (during the

same or a subsequent accident), the

air bag will not operate.

  Note:  the triggering of an air
bag or air bags is accompa-
nied  by  a  slight  discharge
of  harmless  smoke  and  a

noise, due to the activation of the

pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in
the system.
This gas may cause slight irritation.
The noise of the detonation may
result in a slight loss of hearing for a
short time.

  Impact detection zones
  A.  Front impact zone.
  B.  Side impact zone.

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 air bag is

disarmed, in the event of a serious

front  impact  applied  in  the  impact
zone  A  in the longitudinal centreline,
on  a  horizontal  plane  and  from  the

front towards the rear of the vehicle.

The air bag inﬂ ates between the front

occupant of the vehicle and the fas-

cia to cushion his forward movement.

In this way, the air bags limit the risk
of injury to the head and chest.

Front air bag malfunction

   If  this  warning  light  comes
on,  accompanied  by  an  au-
dible  signal  and  a  message
on  the  multifunction  display,

contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have

the system checked. The air bags
may no longer be triggered in the

event of a serious impact.

Disarming the passenger air
bag

  To ensure the safety of your child,
it  is  essential  to  disarm  the  pas-
senger  air  bag  when  you  install
a  "rear-facing"  child  seat  on  the
front  passenger  seat.  Otherwise,
the  child  would  risk  being  seri-
ously injured or killed if the air bag

were to inﬂ ate.
 With the ignition switched off,

insert the key into the passenger
air bag disarming switch 1 , turn
it to the "OFF" position, then

remove the key keeping the slot

in this position.

In the "OFF" position, the passen-
ger air bag will not be triggered in the

event of an impact.

As soon as the child seat is removed,

turn the air bag slot to the "ON" po-

sition to re-activate the air bag and

thus ensure the safety of your pas-

senger in the event of an impact.

With the ignition on (2nd

notch), illumination of this

warning

light

accompa-

nied by a message on the

multifunction display, indicates that
the passenger air bag is disarmed

(switch in the "OFF" position). The

warning light on the instrument panel
remains on until the passenger air

bag is reactivated.

In the event of permanent

lighting  of  the  two  air  bag
warning  lights,  do  not  install
a rear-facing child seat.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.

Steering column air bag

The steering column air bag protects

the driver’s knees in the event of a

serious front impact.
It is incorporated in the fascia below

the steering column.

SIDE AIR BAGS AND
CURTAIN AIR BAGS

The  side  air  bags  are  incorporated
into the front seat backs on the door
side.
The  triggering  of  these  air  bags  re-
quires a serious side impact applied
in  the  side  impact  zone   B ,  perpen-
dicular  to  the  longitudinal  centreline

of the vehicle, on a horizontal plane

and from the outside of the vehicle

towards the inside. The side air bag

inﬂ ates between the front occupant

of the vehicle and the door trim pad.

It therefore limits the risk of injury to
the chest.
The rear side air bags afford the rear
passengers the same protection
which the front side air bags offer the
front passengers.
The curtain air bags are incorporated
in the headlining.
The curtain air bag inﬂ ates between

the front or rear occupant and the
windows. It therefore limits the risk of

head injuries. In the event of a minor

impact or bump on the side of the ve-

hicle or if the vehicle rolls over, the

air bag may not be triggered. The air

bag is not triggered in the event of a

front or rear collision.

Disarming check

Activation
It is deployed at the same time as the
front air bags.

101

If this warning light comes on,
accompanied  by  a  message
on  the  multifunction  display,
it  indicates  a  malfunction  of

at least one of these air bags.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have

the system checked. The air bags
may no longer be triggered in the

event of a serious impact.

Air bags malfunction

Side air bags
Only put approved covers on the

seats, these will not hamper the in-

ﬂ ation of the side air bags. Consult a

PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not ﬁ x or glue anything to the front

seat backs. This could cause injury
to the chest or arms when the side

air bag inﬂ ates.
Do  not  sit  with  the  upper  part  of  the
body  any  nearer  to  the  door  than
necessary.

  Steering column air bag
Do not sit with your knees any nearer
to  the  steering  wheel  than  neces-
sary.

Curtain air bags
Do not ﬁ x or glue anything to the pil-

lars or the roof. This could cause in-
jury to the head when the curtain air

bag inﬂ ates.
The  triggering  of  an  air  bag  or  air
bags  is  accompanied  by  a  slight
emission  of  harmless  smoke  and

a noise due to the activation of the

pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in
the system. This smoke is not harm-

ful but sensitive individuals may ex-

perience some irritation.
The  detonation  noise  may  result  in
a  slight  loss  of  hearing  for  a  short
time.
Even  if  all  of  the  precautions  men-

tioned are observed, injury or slight

burns to the head, chest or arms
when the air bag is triggered can-
not be ruled out. Indeed, the bag in-

ﬂ ates almost instantly (approximately

30 milliseconds) then deﬂ ates within

the same time discharging hot gas

via the openings provided for this

purpose.
This equipment will only operate

once. If a second impact occurs (during

the same or a subsequent accident),

the air bag will not inﬂ ate.

Front air bags
Do not drive holding the steering

wheel  by  its  spokes  or  resting  your
hands  on  the  centre  part  of  the
wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet
on the fascia.
Smoke  as  little  as  possible;  deploy-
ment of the air bags can cause burns
or  the  risk  of  injury  from  a  cigarette
or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering

wheel or hit it violently.

  For  the  front,  steering  column,
side and curtain air bags to be ful-
ly effective, observe the following
safety rules:
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Do  not  leave  anything  between  the

occupants and the air bags (child,

animal, object...). This could hamper

the operation of the air bags or injure
the occupants.
All work on the air bag systems is
strictly prohibited unless it is car-

ried out by qualiﬁ ed personnel of the

PEUGEOT network.
After an accident or if the vehicle has

been stolen or broken into, have the

air bag systems checked.

Release the brake pedal then accelerate.
  "AUTO"   and   "1"   or   "R"   appear  on
the instrument panel display.
It  is  possible  to  start  in  2nd  gear
using  the  gear  lever,  in  sequential
mode only.

Switching to automated mode

Reinitialisation

Following disconnection of the battery,
the gearbox must be reinitialised:

The  brake  pedal  must  be
pressed  while  starting  the
engine.
Never select neutral  N  while

the vehicle is moving.
Only engage reverse gear  R  with the
vehicle  immobilised  and  the  brake
pedal pressed.
In all cases, it is imperative that you
apply  the  handbrake  in  order  to  im-
mobilise the vehicle.
On  a  steep  gradient,  it  is  preferable
to switch to sequential mode.

  "Auto sequential" mode
In the automated mode, you can re-
sume control temporarily at any time
using  the  steering  wheel  controls.
The  use  of  these  controls  permits
manual selection of the gears in situa-
tions  which  require  a  faster  change-
down  than  that  offered  in  automated

mode (arrival at a roundabout, exit

from a car park with a steep gradient,
overtaking...).
The  gearbox  engages  the  gear
requested  if  the  engine  speed
permits  it.   "AUTO"   is  still  displayed
on the instrument panel.
After  a  few  moments,  the  gearbox
again controls the gears automatically.

Stopping the vehicle

Before switching off the engine, you
can:
-

move to position N to leave the
gearbox in neutral.

leave a gear engaged, such as

ﬁ rst or reverse.

In both cases, it is imperative that you
apply the handbrake to immobilise
the vehicle.

Operating anomaly

With the ignition on, the ﬂ ashing of

"AUTO"   and  lighting  of  the  service
warning  light,  accompanied  by  an
audible signal and a message on the
multifunction display, indicate a gear-
box malfunction.
Contact a  PEUGEOT  dealer without
delay.

  If  you  press  the  accelera-
tor  pedal  beyond  the  point
of   resistance,  the  gearbox
selects  the  gear  below  to
permit sharper acceleration.

switch on the ignition, "AUTO"
and "-" appear on the instrument
panel display,

press the brake pedal,

wait approximately 30 seconds
until "N" or a gear appears on
the instrument panel display,

release the brake pedal.

The gearbox is operational again.

  Automated mode
After using the sequential mode, you
can return to the automated mode by
selecting position  A .
  "AUTO"   and  the  gear  engaged  ap-
pear on the instrument panel display.
The  gearbox  then  operates  in  auto-
active  mode,  without  any  action  on
the part of the driver.
It continuously selects the gear most
suited to the following parameters:
   -

driving style,

road characteristics,

vehicle load.

To  optimise  driving  comfort  and  ob-
tain  the  most  suitable  gear,  avoid
sharp  variations  in  the  pressure  on
the accelerator pedal.

SPEED LIMITER

This speed limiter, of the new gene-
ration, has a display on the instrument
panel  to  indicate  the  programmed
speed.
It  prevents  exceeding  of  the  vehicle
speed  programmed  by  the  driver.
When  the  programmed  speed  is
reached,  pressing  the  accelerator
pedal no longer has any effect.
The  limiter  operates  with  a  pro-
grammed  speed  of  at  least  18  mph

(30 km/h); it remains active regard-

less  of  any  action  on  the  brake  and
clutch pedals.
The  speed  limiter  is   switched  on
manually:  it  requires  a  programmed

speed of at least 18 mph (30 km/h).
The speed limiter is switched off by
manual operation of the control.
By pressing the accelerator pedal

ﬁ rmly, passing the point of resis-

tance,  it  is  possible  to  exceed  the
programmed speed temporarily.
To return to the programmed speed,
simply  slow  down  to  a  speed  below
the programmed speed.
The  programmed  speed  value  re-
mains in the memory when the igni-
tion is switched off.
