2011 Citroen BERLINGO FIRST ECU

45SEATS-




The driver must ensure that
the passengers use the seat
belts correctly and that they
are all properly restrained
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as
they will not fulfi l their role fully.
If the seats have armrests * , the lap
part of the seat belt must always
pass under the armrest.
The seat belts are fi tted with an in-
ertia reel permitting automatic adjust-
ment of the length of the strap to your
size. The seat belt is stored automa-
tically 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.
The inertia reels are fi tted with an au-
tomatic locking device which comes
into operation in the event of a colli-
sion, on emergency braking or if the
vehicle rolls over. You can release
the device by pulling rapidly on the
strap and releasing it.
In order to be effective, a seat belt:


- must be tightened as close to the
body as possible,

- must restrain one adult 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,

- must not be transformed or modifi ed
to avoid altering its performance.
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 regularly
by a CITROËN dealer and particularly
if the straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by CITROËN dealers.

According to model.
Recommendations for children:


- use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one metre fi fty,

- do not use the strap-guide * when
a child seat is installed.

- never use the same seat belt to
secure more than one person,

- never allow a child to travel on
your lap.

Depending on the nature and serious-
ness of the impacts
, the pre-tensioning
device may be triggered before and in-
dependently of the airbags. Triggering of
the pre-tensioners is accompanied by a
slight emission of harmless smoke and
a noise, due to the activation of the py-
rotechnic cartridge incorporated 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.

After folding or moving a
seat or rear bench seat,
ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and rolled up
correctly.

SPECIAL FEATURES
OF ALLOY WHEELS


Fitting the spare wheel
If your vehicle is equipped with a
steel spare wheel, when fi tting it, it is
normal
to notice that the bolt wash-
ers do not come into contact with the
rim. The spare wheel is secured by
the cone-shape of each bolt.

Fitting snow tyres
If you fi t snow tyres that are mounted
on steel rims onto your vehicle, it is
essential
that you use special bolts
available from your CITROËN dealer.


* According to model and country.

ANTI-THEFT BOLT *

If your wheels are fi tted with an anti-
theft bolt (one per wheel), it must be
unscrewed using an anti-theft socket
(which was given to you on delivery
of your vehicle along with the dupli-
cate keys and the confi dential card)
and the wheelbrace.

Note:
make a careful note of the
code number engraved on the top of
the anti-theft socket. This will enable
you to obtain a duplicate anti-theft
socket from your
CITROËN dealer.
