Airbags
Side airbags
If fitted on your vehicle, this is a system
which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious side
impact in order to limit the risk of injury to
the chest.
Each side airbag is incorporated in the front
seat back frame, on the door side. Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone. If this warning light comes
on on the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the display,
contact a CITROËN dealer to have the
system checked. The airbags may no longer
be triggered in the event of a serious impact.
Activation
It is triggered unilaterally in the event of a
serious side impact applied to all or part
of the side impact zone B , perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle
on a horizontal plane and directed from the
outside towards the inside of the vehicle.
The side airbag inflates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
corresponding door trim pad.
Curtain airbags
This is a system which protects the driver
and passengers (with the exception of the
centre seats of rows 2 and 3) in the event of
a serious side impact in order to limit the risk
of head injuries.
Each curtain airbag is incorporated in the
pillars and the upper part of the passenger
compartment.
Activation
It is triggered at the same time as the
corresponding side airbag in the event of
a serious side impact applied to all or part
of the side impact zone B , perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle
on a horizontal plane and directed from the
outside towards the inside of the vehicle.
