SEAT BELTS
Front seat belts
T h e f r o n t s e a t b e l t s a r e fi t t e d w i t h a
pretensioning system and force limiter.
This system improves safety in the front
seats in the event of a front impact.
Depending on the seriousness of the
impact, the pretensioning system in-
stantly tightens the seat belt against
the body of the occupant. Fastening
Pull the belt down in front of you
in a steady movement, making
sure that it does not become
twisted.
Press the fastening into its buckle.
Check that it is properly secured
and that the automatic locking
mechanism operates correctly
by pulling sharply on the belt
strap.
The lap strap should be posi-
tioned as low down as possible in
the lap and as tight as possible.
The diagonal strap should be
positioned across the chest and
away from the neck.
E a c h b e l t h a s a r e e l t h a t a d j u s t s i t s
length automatically to the girth of
the seat occupant. Height adjustment
The pretensioning seat belts are ac-
tive when the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pres-
sure of the seat belt against the
chest of the occupant, so increasing
his protection.
W h e n c o r r e c t l y a d j u s t e d , t h e s e a t
belt shoulder strap falls over the
middle of the shoulder.
T o a d j u s t t h e b e l t , s q u e e z e t h e
control and slide it in the direction
required.
Unfastening
To unfasten the belt, press on
the red button in the buckle.
The belt retracts automatically when
not in use.

(C4 Picasso)
Open the cover A .
Remove the belt tongues from
their housing.
Bring the belt tongues up to the
relay ring B .
Insert the attachment, then pass
the tongues through the ring.
Close the cover A . Make sure
that the belt is correctly posi-
tioned in the recess in the cover
provided for this purpose. Stowing the belt tongues
(C4 Picasso)
Operate in reverse order to stow
the belt tongues.
You may opt to leave the seat belt in
the relay ring even if not using it. Routing of the seat belt
(C4 Picasso and
C4 Grand Picasso)
Insert the tongue C into the buckle
on the right, then insert the sec-
ond tongue D into the buckle on
the left.
Unfastening the seat belt
(C4 Picasso and
Grand C4 Picasso)
Release the buckle C , then the
buckle D and guide the seat belt
to its stowing position.
Before use

that the seat belt passes through
the relay ring.

Third row rear seat belts
(Grand C4 Picasso)
Requirements for the third row
passenger seat belts
Take care to attach the third-row
passenger seat belts securely to the
rings provided for this purpose.
Do not attach the belts to the an-
chorage points marked with a red
cross, as shown in the illustration. Stowing the tongue of the third-row
seat belt
Secure the tongue in the location
provided on the rear pillar trim.
The third-row passenger seat belts
that are not being used can be
stowed in order to free up loadspace
and facilitate use of the luggage
cover.
Before use:
T o a v o i d d a m a g i n g o r j a m m i n g t h e
seat belts, stow them carefully on
the sides of the seat backrests.

The driver must ensure that passen-
gers use the seat belts correctly and
that they are all restrained securely
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
e v e n f o r s h o r t j o u r n e y s .
Do not invert the seat belt buckles

to your size. The seat belt is stored
automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned
in the hollow of the shoulder.
T h e i n e r t i a r e e l s a r e fi t t e d w i t h a n
automatic locking device which
comes into operation in the event
of a collision, emergency braking
or if the vehicle rolls over. You can
release the device by pulling rapidly
on the strap and releasing it so that
it re-winds slightly. In order to be effective, a seat belt:
- must be tightened as close to the
body as possible,
- must restrain one person of adult size only,
- 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,
- m u s t n o t b e a l t e r e d o r m o d i fi e d t o avoid altering its performance. Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to
secure more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your
lap.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, all repairs and checks
must be carried out by a CITROËN
dealer who guarantees that the work
is carried out correctly.
Have your seat belts checked regu-
larly by a CITROËN dealer and par-
ticularly if the straps show signs of
damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
w a t e r o r a t e x t i l e c l e a n i n g p r o d u c t ,
sold by CITROËN dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and reeled in correctly.
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of the impacts , the
pre-tensioning device may be trig-
gered before and independently of
the airbags. Triggering of the pre-
tensioners is accompanied by a
slight discharge of harmless smoke
and a noise, due to the activation of
the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporat-
ed in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a CITROËN dealer.

AIR BAGS
S y s t e m d e s i g n e d t o m a x i m i s e t h e
safety of the occupants (with the
e x c e p t i o n o f t h e r e a r c e n t r e p a s -
senger) in the event of violent col-
lisions. It supplements the action of
the force-limiting seat belts.
If a collision occurs, the electronic
detectors record and analyse the
front and side impacts sustained in
the impact detection zones:
- in the case of a serious impact, the air bags are triggered instant-
ly and protect the occupants of
t h e v e h i c l e ( w i t h t h e e x c e p t i o n o f
the rear centre passenger); im-
mediately after the impact, the
a i r b a g s d e fl a t e r a p i d l y s o t h a t
they do not hinder visibility or the
e x i t o f t h e o c c u p a n t s ,
- in the case of a minor or rear im- pact or in certain roll-over con-
ditions, the air bags will not be
triggered; the seat belt alone is
s u f fi c i e n t t o p r o v i d e o p t i m u m
protection in these situations.
The air bags do not operate when
the ignition is switched off.
This equipment will only operate
once. If a second impact occurs
(during the same or a subsequent
accident), the air bag will not operate. Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
Triggering of the air bag(s) is ac-
companied by a slight emission of
harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sen-
s i t i v e i n d i v i d u a l s m a y e x p e r i e n c e
slight irritation.
The noise of the detonation may
result in a slight loss of hearing for
a short time. Front airbags
System which protects the head and
chest of the driver and front passenger
in the event of a front impact.
The driver's airbag is incorporated
in the centre of the steering wheel;
the front passenger's airbag is incor-
porated in the dashboard above the
g l o v e b o x .
Activation
The airbags are triggered simultane-
ously, unless the passenger's front
airbag is deactivated, in the event of
a serious front impact applied to all
or part of the front impact zone
A ,
in the longitudinal centreline of the
vehicle on a horizontal plane and di-
rected from the front to the rear of
the vehicle.
T h e f r o n t a i r b a g i n fl a t e s b e t w e e n t h e
front occupant of the vehicle and the
dashboard to cushion their forward
movement.
