Safety
Seat belts


Front seat belts


The front seat belts are fitted with apretensioning and force limiting system.
This system improves safety in the frontseats in the event of a front or side impact.
Dependin
g on the severity of the impact, thepretensioning system instantly 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 occupant, so improving their protection.

Fastening
)Pull the strap, then inser t the tongue in the buckle.)Check that the seat belt is fastenedcorrectly by pulling the strap.



Unfastening
)Press the red button on the buckle.)Guide the seat belt as it reels in.

Seat belt not fastened/unfastened warning lamp in the instrument panel
When the ignition is switched on,
this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument
panel if the driver and/or
the front passenger has not fastened their seat belt.
From approximately 12 mph (20 km/h)this warning lamp flashes for two minutes
accompanied by an audible signal of increasingvolume. Once these two minutes have elapsed,
this warning lamp remains on until the driver
and/or the front passenger fastens their seat belt.
Height adjustment
) To lower the attachment point, squeeze thecontrol Aand slide it downwards. )
To raise the attachment point, slide the control Aupwards.

The driver must ensure that passengers usethe seat belts correctly and that they are allrestrained securely before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle, always fasten your seat belt, even for short journeys. Do not interchange the seat belt buckles as they will not fulfil their role fully.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel permitting automatic adjustment of the lengthof the strap to your size. The seat belt isstowed automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the seatbelt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be positioned as low as possible on the pelvis.
The upper par t must be positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fitted with an automatic locking device which comes into operation inthe event of a collision, emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls over. You can release the device by pulling firmly on the strap and releasing 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 nottwist,

- be used to restrain only one person,

- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,

- not be converted or modified to avoidaffecting its per formance.
In accordance with current safety regulations, for all repairs on your vehicle, go to aqualified workshop with the skills and equipment needed, which a CITROËN dealer is able to provide. Have your seat belts checked regularly by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 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 benchseat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned and reeled in correctly.


Recommendations for children

Use a suitable child seat if the passenger is less than 12 years old or shor ter 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 andseriousness of the impact , the pretensioning device may be deployed before and independently of the airbags.Deployment of the pretensioners is accompanied by a slight discharge of harmless smoke and a noise, due to theactivation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lampcomes on.
Following an impact, have the seat beltssystem checked, and if necessary replaced, by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
