Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles

If the seats have armrests * , the lap
part of the seat belt must always
pass under the armrest.

comes into operation in the event of
a collision, on emergency braking

- 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,

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. R e c o m m e n d a t i o n s f o r c h i l d r e n :
- use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years
old or shorter than one metre
fi f t y ,
- do not use the strap-guide * when a child seat is installed.
- never use the same seat belt to secure more than one person,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap.
D e p e n d i n g o n t h e n a t u r e a n d s e -
r i o u s n e s s o f t h e i m p a c t s , the pre-
tensioning device may be triggered
before and independently of the
air bags. Triggering of the pre-ten-
sioners is accompanied by a slight
emission 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 nec-
essary replaced, by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
