Seat belts
Good practice
The driver must ensure that all passengers
fasten their seat belt correctly.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel
which automatically adjusts the length of the
strap to your size. The seat belt is rolled up
automatically when not in use.
Ensure that the seat belt is rolled up
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat, ensure that
the seat belt is rolled up correctly in its
compartment and that the buckle is ready to
accommodate the tongue. The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt against the body of the occupants.
The equipment fitted to these seat belts is
operational when the ignition is switched on.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device
which automatically locks the strap in the
event of a collision or emergency braking or
if the vehicle rolls over.
The Airbag warning light comes
on if the pretensioners are
triggered. Consult a PEUGEOT
dealer .
Depending on the nature and seriousness
of any impact, the pretensioning device may
be triggered before and independently of
inflation of the Airbags. It instantly tightens
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
The triggering of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system. In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
- restrain one person only,
- must not be twisted, check by pulling in
front of you with an even movement,
- be tightened as close to the body as possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should be
positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low as
possible on the pelvis.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they
will not fulfil their role completely. If the
seats are fitted with armrests, the lap part of
the seat belt should always pass under the
armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap firmly. Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the passenger
is less than 12 years old or shorter than
one metre fifty,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap, even with the seat belt fastened.
For further information regarding child
seats, refer to the "Children on board"
section of chapter 5.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, your PEUGEOT dealer
guarantees all work or any checks, from
testing to maintenance, on your seat belt
equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly
(even after a minor impact) by a PEUGEOT
dealer: they must not show any signs of
wear, cutting or fraying and they must not be
transformed or modified.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by a PEUGEOT dealer.
