147Safety
For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:
Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre par t of the wheel. Passengers must not place their feet on the dashboard. If possible, do not smoke as 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.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats. These will not hinder inflation of the lateral airbags. Consult a CITROËN dealer. Do not fix or attach anything to the seat backs (clothing...). This could cause injury to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is triggered. Do not sit with the upper par t of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. This could cause injury to the head if the cur tain airbag is triggered. Do not remove the grab handles installed on the roof, they play a par t in securing the cur tain airbags.
Sit in a normal upright position. Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt. Do not leave anything between the occupants and the airbags (a child, pet, object...). This could hamper the operation of the airbags or injure the occupants. After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen or broken into, have the airbag systems checked. All work on the airbag system is strictly forbidden unless it is carried out by qualified personnel of the CITROËN dealer network. Even if all of the precautions mentioned are obser ved, a risk of injury or of minor burns to the head, chest or arms when an airbag is triggered cannot be ruled out.
The bag inflates almost instantly (within a few milliseconds) then deflates within the same time discharging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.

Battery Procedure for charging your battery when it is flat or for star ting the engine using another battery.
The battery is located under the bonnet. To gain access to it: open the bonnet using the interior release lever, then the exterior safety catch, secure the bonnet stay,
remove the plastic cover by pulling on its grip for access to the two terminals, unclip the fusebox to remove the battery, if necessary.
Access to the battery
Connect the red cable to the positive terminal (+) of the flat battery A , then to the positive terminal (+) of the slave battery B .
Starting using another
battery
After refitting the battery, the Stop & Start system will only be active after a continuous period of immobilisation of the vehicle, a period which depends on the climatic conditions and the state of charge of the battery (up to about 8 hours).
The presence of this label, in par ticular with the Stop & Star t system, indicates the use of a 12 V lead-acid battery with special technology and specification, for which the involvement of a CITROËN dealer is required when replacing or disconnecting the battery. Failure to obser ve this recommendation may cause premature wear of
the battery.
