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.
¥ Front airbags
¥ Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre part of the wheel.

¥ 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 backs. This could cause injury to the chest or arms when the side airbag inflates.
