BOOSTER CUSHIONS
WARNINGS
Do not install a booster seat or a
booster cushion with only the lap
strap of the seat belt.
Do not install a booster seat or a
booster cushion with a seat belt that
is slack or twisted.
Do not put the seat belt under your
child’s arm or behind its back.
Do not use pillows, books or towels
to boost your child’s height.
Make sure that your children sit in
an upright position.
Secure children that weigh more
than 15 kilograms but are less than
150 centimetres tall in a booster
seat or a booster cushion. CAUTION
When using a child seat on a rear
seat, make sure that the child seat
rests tightly against the vehicle seat.
It may be necessary to lift or remove the
head restraint. See Head restraints
(page 90). Booster seat (Group 2)
We recommend that you use a booster
seat that combines a cushion with a
backrest instead of a booster cushion
only. The raised seating position will allow
you to position the shoulder strap of the
adult seat belt over the centre of your
child’s shoulder and the lap strap tightly
across its hips.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Airbags
WARNINGS
Do not modify the front of your
vehicle in any way. This could
adversely affect deployment of the
airbags. Original text according to ECE
R94.01: Extreme Hazard! Do not use
a rearward facing child restraint on
a seat protected by an airbag in front of
it! Wear a seat belt and keep sufficient
distance between yourself and the
steering wheel. Only when you use
the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a
position that allows the airbag to achieve
its optimum effect. See Sitting in the
correct position (page 90).Have repairs to the steering wheel,
steering column, seats, airbags and
seat belts carried out by a properly
trained technician. Keep the areas in front of the
airbags free from obstruction. Do
not affix anything to or over the
airbag covers. Do not poke sharp objects into
areas where airbags are fitted. This
could damage and adversely affect
deployment of the airbags. Use seat covers designed for seats
with side airbags. Have these fitted
by a properly trained technician.
Note:You will hear a loud bang and see
a cloud of harmless powdery residue if an airbag deploys. This is normal.
Note:Only wipe airbag covers with a
damp cloth.
Driver and front passenger airbags The driver and front passenger airbags
will deploy during significant frontal
collisions or collisions that are up to 30
degrees from the left or the right. The
airbags will inflate within a few
thousandths of a second and deflate on
contact with the occupants, thus
cushioning forward body movement.
During minor frontal collisions, overturns,
rear collisions and side collisions, the driver
and front passenger airbags will not
deploy.
Side airbags
Side airbags are fitted inside the seatback
of the front seats. A label indicates that
side airbags are fitted to your vehicle.
22
Occupant protectionE74302 E72658

The side airbags will deploy during
significant lateral collisions. Only the airbag
on the side affected by the collision will
deploy. The airbags will inflate within a few
thousandths of a second and deflate on
contact with the occupants, thus
providing protection for the chest and
shoulder areas. During minor lateral
collisions, overturns, front collisions and
rear collisions, the side airbags will not
deploy.
Curtain airbags
Curtain airbags are fitted inside the trim
panels over the front and rear side
windows. Moulded badges in the B-pillar
trim panels indicate that curtain airbags
are fitted to your vehicle.
The curtain airbags will deploy during
significant lateral collisions. Only the airbag
on the side affected by the collision will
deploy. The airbag will inflate within a few
thousandths of a second and deflate on
contact with the occupants, thus
providing protection for the head. During
minor lateral collisions, front collisions, rear
collisions, or overturns the curtain airbags
will not deploy. Seat belts WARNINGS
Wear a seat belt and keep sufficient
distance between yourself and the
steering wheel. Only when you use
the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a
position to achieve its optimum effect.
See Sitting in the correct position
(page 90). Never use a seat belt for more than
one person.
Use the correct buckle for each seat
belt.
Do not use a seat belt that is slack
or twisted.
Do not wear thick clothing. The seat
belt must fit tightly around your body
to achieve its optimum effect.
Position the shoulder strap of the
seat belt over the centre of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips. The driver and front passenger seat belt
buckles are fitted with a seat belt
pretensioner. Seat belt pretensioners
have a lower deployment threshold than
the airbags. During minor collisions, it is
possible that only the seat belt
pretensioners will deploy.
Status after a collision
WARNING
Seat belts subjected to strain, as a
result of an accident, should be
renewed and the anchorages
checked by a properly trained technician. 23

FASTENING THE SEAT
BELTS
WARNING
Insert the tongue into the buckle
until you hear a distinct click. You
have not fastened the seat belt
properly if you do not hear a click. Pull the belt out steadily. It may lock if you
pull it sharply or if the vehicle is on a slope.
Press the red button on the buckle to
release the belt. Let it retract completely
and smoothly. SEAT BELT HEIGHT
ADJUSTMENT
Note:Lifting the slider slightly while
pressing the locking button makes it easier to release the locking mechanism.
To raise or lower, press the locking button
on the adjuster and move as necessary.
SEAT BELT REMINDER WARNING
The occupant protection system will
only provide optimum protection
when you use the seat belt properly.
The seat belt reminder warning
lamp illuminates and an audible
warning will sound if the driver's
or front seat passenger's seat belt has
not been fastened and the vehicle
exceeds a relatively low speed. It will also
illuminate if the driver's or front seat
passenger's seat belt is unfastened when
the vehicle is moving. The audible warning
will go off after five minutes but the seat
belt reminder warning lamp will remain on
until the driver's or front seat passenger's
seat belt is fastened.

reminder
See your dealer.
USING SEAT BELTS DURING
PREGNANCY
WARNING
Position the seat belt correctly for
your safety and that of your unborn
child. Do not use only the lap strap
or the shoulder strap. Position the lap strap comfortably across
your hips and low beneath your pregnant
abdomen. Position the shoulder strap
between your breasts, above and to the
side of your pregnant abdomen.
DISABLING THE
PASSENGER AIRBAG
WARNING
Make sure that the passenger
airbag is disabled when using a
rearward facing child restraint on the
front passenger seat. Fitting the passenger airbag
deactivation switch
WARNING
If you need to fit a child restraint on
a seat protected by an operational
airbag in front of it, have a
passenger airbag deactivation switch
fitted. Ask your dealer for further
information. Note:The key switch is located in the
glove compartment with an airbag deactivation lamp in the instrument panel.
If the airbag warning lamp illuminates or
flashes when you are driving, this indicates
a malfunction. See Warning lamps and
indicators (page 64). Remove the child
restraint and have the system checked
immediately.
25
Occupant protectionE68587 E71313

If it stays on after starting or
illuminates when driving, this
indicates a malfunction. Stop
your vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so
and switch the engine off. Check the
engine oil level. See Engine oil check
(page 147).
Power steering warning lamp It illuminates to indicate a
malfunction of the power
steering system. Full steering
will be maintained but you will need to
exert greater force on the steering wheel.
Have the system checked by a properly
trained technician as soon as possible.
Rear fog lamp indicator It will illuminate when you switch
the rear fog lamps on.
Seat belt reminder See
Seat belt reminder
(page 24).
Shift indicator It will illuminate to inform you
that shifting to a higher gear
may give better fuel economy
and lower CO2 emissions. It will not
illuminate during periods of high
acceleration, braking or when the clutch
pedal is pressed. Stability control (ESP) indicator While driving, it flashes during
activation of the system. After
switching on the ignition, if it
does not illuminate or illuminates
continuously while driving, this indicates
a malfunction. During a malfunction, the
system switches off. Have the system
checked by a properly trained technician
as soon as possible.
If you switch ESP off, the warning lamp
will illuminate. The lamp will go out when
you switch the system back on or when
you switch the ignition off.
