YOUR 307 IN DETAIL93
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 (passengers must not place their feet on the ifascia).
¥ Do not leave any accessories, objects or pets between the occupants and the air bags. It could hamper the operation of the air bags or injure the occupants.
¥ All work on the air bag system is strictly forbidden 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 airbag systems checked.
¥ The air bag systems have been designed to be fully operational for 10 years from the date of registration of thevehicle. 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.
¥ Smoke as little as possible; deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe.
¥ Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.
Side airbags*
¥ Only put approved covers on the seats. Contact your PEUGEOT dealer. ¥ Do not fix or glue anything to the backs of the front seats. This could cause injury to the chest or arms when the side air bag inflates.
¥ Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.
Curtain air bags*
¥ Do not fasten or glue anything to the door pillars or to the roof as this could cause head injuries when the curtain airbag inflates.
¥ Do not remove the bolts from the handles on the roof; they help to secure the curtain air bags.

Special features of alloy wheels* Bolt coversAlloy wheel bolts are covered by chrome trims. Use tool 6to remove the trims befo-
re slackening the bolts. Fitting the spare wheel If your vehicle is fitted with a steel spare wheel, when fitting it, it is
nor-
mal to notice that the bolt washers
do not come into contact with the
rim. The spare wheel is secured by
the cone shape of each bolt. Tighten
the bolts fully. Fitting snow tyres If you fit snow tyres mounted on steel wheels, it is essentialto use special
bolts available from your PEUGEOT
dealer. Anti-theft bolts** If your wheels are fitted with an anti- theft bolt (one per wheel), the chro-me trim and then the plastic covermust be removed using tool
6, befo-
re unscrewing the bolt using one ofthe two anti-theft sockets (whichwere given to you on delivery of yourvehicle along with the duplicate keysand the confidential card) and thewheel brace 1.
Note : make a careful note of the
code number engraved on the head
of the anti-theft socket. This willenable you to obtain duplicate anti-theft sockets from a PEUGEOT
dealer.
