2011 Peugeot RCZ airbag

5/
SAFETY













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
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 must be carried out by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are observed, a risk of
injury 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
discharging 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

Do not fi x or attach anything to the seat backs. This could cause
injury to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is triggered.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than
necessary.

GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS

Although one of PEUGEOT main criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please observe the following recommendations:


- in accordance with European regulations, all children under the
age of 12 or less than one and a half metres tall must travel in
approved child seats suited to their weight
, on seats fi tted with a
seat belt or ISOFIX mountings * ,

- statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for carrying
children are the rear seats,


- a child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the "rearwards-
facing" position both in the front and in the rear.




Child seat at the rear

Only children between 9 and 18 kg can be carried in the rear
seats in a "forwards-facing" universal ISOFIX child seat.



CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT


"Rearwards-facing"

When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is installed on the front
passenger seat
, it is essential that the passenger airbag is deactivated.
Otherwise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if
the airbag were to infl ate
.

*
The rules for carrying children are specifi c to each country. Refer to
the current legislation in your country.


"Forwards-facing"

When a "forwards-facing" child seat is installed on the front passenger
seat
, adjust the vehicle's seat to the intermediate longitudinal position
with the seat back upright and leave the passenger airbag activated.

SAFETY


Passenger airbag OFF
Intermediate longitudinal position



Refer to the advice given on the label present on both sides of the
passenger's sun visor.

To assure the safety of your child, you must deactivate the
passenger's front airbag when you install a child seat in the
rearwards facing position on the front passenger's seat.
Otherwise, there is a risk that the child could be seriously injured
or killed if the airbag were deployed.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS


Installing a booster seat

The chest part of the seat belt must be positioned on the child's
shoulder without touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt passes correctly over the
child's thighs.
PEUGEOT recommends the use of a booster seat which has a back,
fi tted with a seat belt guide at shoulder level. The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises
the child's protection in the event of an accident.
When installing a child seat using the seat belt, ensure that the
seat belt is tightened correctly on the child seat and that it secures
the child seat fi rmly on the vehicle's seat.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the child seat harnesses
keeping
the slack
in relation to the child's body to a minimum
,
even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the "forward facing" child seat, ensure
that the back of the child seat is in contact with the back of the
vehicle's seat and that the head restraint does not cause any
discomfort.
Children under the age of 10 must not travel in the "forward
facing" position on the front passenger seat, unless the rear seats
are already occupied by other children, cannot be used or are
absent.
Deactivate the passenger airbag when a "rear facing" child seat
is installed on the front seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were to infl ate. As a safety precaution, do not leave:


- one or more children alone and unsupervised in a vehicle,

- a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun,
with the windows closed,

- the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle.
