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.











Fastening


)
Pull the strap, then insert the tongue
in the buckle.

)
Check that the seat belt is fastened
correctly by pulling the strap.


Unfastening


)
Press the red button on the buckle.

)
Guide the seat belt as it reels in.
The corresponding warning lamp 1
or 2

comes on in red on the seat belt and pas-
senger's front airbag warning lamps dis-
play, accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the screen, if the seat
belt is not fastened or is unfastened.

From approximately 12 mph (20 km/h)
this warning lamp fl ashes for two min-
utes accompanied by an audible signal
of increasing volume. Once these two
minutes have elapsed, this warning
lamp remains on until the driver and/or
the front passenger fastens their seat
belt.

SAFETY
137




The driver must ensure that passen-
gers use the seat belts correctly and
that they are all restrained securely
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt
buckles as they will not fulfi l their role
fully.
The seat belts are fi tted with an inertia
reel permitting automatic adjustment
of the length of the strap to your size.
The seat belt is stowed automatically
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 auto-
matic locking device which comes into
operation in the event of a collision,
emergency braking or if the vehicle
rolls over. You can release the device
by pulling fi rmly on the strap and re-
leasing it so that it reels in slightly. In order to be effective, a seat belt
must:


- be tightened as close to the body
as possible,

- be pulled in front of you with a
smooth movement, checking that
it does not twist,

-
be used to restrain only one person,


- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,


- not be converted or modifi ed to
avoid affecting its performance.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, for all repairs on your ve-
hicle, go to a qualifi ed workshop with
the skills and equipment needed,
which a CITROËN dealer is able to
provide.
Have your seat belts checked regu-
larly by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop, 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.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and reeled in correctly.
Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to
secure more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your
lap.

In the event of an impact

Depending on the nature and serious-
ness of the impact
, the pretensioning
device may be deployed before and in-
dependently of the airbags. Deployment
of the pretensioners is accompanied by
a slight discharge of harmless smoke
and a noise, due to the activation of the
pyrotechnic 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
or a qualifi ed workshop.
