To lock the seat beltsPull the strap, then insert the end into the buckle. Pre-tensioning and force-limiting front seat belts* Safety in the event of a frontal impact has been improved by the introduc-tion of pre-tensioning and force-limit-ing front seat belts. Depending on theseriousness of the impact, the pre-tensioning system instantly tightensthe seat belts firmly against the bodyof 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
occupantÕs body in the event of anaccident. Rear seat belts 4-door:
the rear seats are fitted with
3 three-point inertia reel seat belts.
3/5-door, estate: The rear seats are
fitted with 2 three-point inertia reel seat belts and one lap belt. Use the buckle retaining hooks when the rear seats are not occupied.
* According to specification. To be effective, a seat belt must be tensioned asclose to the body as pos-sible.
Depending on the nature and seri-ousness of the impact the pre-ten-sioning system may be triggeredbefore and independently of theairbags. In all cases, the airbag warning light comes on. Following an impact, have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer. The system has been designed to be fully operational for ten years. Have it replaced at the end of this period.
