SEAT BELTS

Front seat belts


The front seat belts are fi tted with a pre-
tensioning and force limiting system.
This system improves safety in the front
seats in the event of a front or side im-
pact. Depending on the severity of the
impact, the pretensioning system in-
stantly tightens the seat belts against
the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active
when the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure
of the seat belt on the chest of the oc-
cupant, so improving their protection.

For the airbags to be fully
effective, observe the
following safety rules:
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 air-
bags or injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the ve-
hicle has been stolen or broken
into, have the airbag systems
checked.
All work on the airbag sys-
tem must be carried out by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
Even if all of the precautions men-
tioned are observed, a risk of in-
jury or of minor burns to the head,
chest or arms when an airbag is
deployed cannot be ruled out.
The bag infl ates almost instantly
(within a few milliseconds) then
defl ates within the same time dis-
charging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.


Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on
the centre part 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, compatible with the deployment the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your vehicle, you
can contact a CITROËN dealer (see "Practical information - § Accessories").
Do not fi x or attach anything to the seat backs (clothing...). This could cause injury
to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.

Curtain airbags
Do not fi x or attach anything to the roof. This could cause injury to the head if the
curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the grab handles installed on the roof, they play a part in securing
the curtain airbags.
