¥ Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
¥ Sit in a normal, upright position.
¥ Do not leave any accessories, objects or pets between the occupants and the air bags. This could hinder the operation of the air bags or injure the occupants.
¥ All work on the air bag system is strictly prohibited unless it is carried out by an approved PEUGEOT dealer.
¥ After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen or broken into, have the air bag systems checked.
¥ The air bag systems have been designed to be fully operational for 10 years from the date of vehicle registration.
