Additional methods of restraint
The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both the
airbags and seat belts are integral parts of the same protection system.
It is therefore essential to wear the seat belt at all times. If seat belts are
not worn, the occupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the
event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superficial injuries
occurring when the airbag is deployed, although such minor injuries are always
possible with airbags.
If the vehicle should overturn or suffer a rear impact, however severe, the pre-
tensioners and air bags are not always triggered. Impacts to the underside of the
vehicle, e.g. from pavements, potholes or stones, can all trigger these \
systems.
–
N
o work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the
driver or passenger air bag system (air bag, electronic unit, wiring, etc.), except
by qualified personnel from our Network.
–
T
o ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidental trig-
gering of the system which could cause injury, only qualified personnel from
our Network may work on the air bag system.
–
As
a safety precaution, have the air bag system checked if your vehicle has
been involved in an accident, or is stolen or broken into.
–
When
selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and hand
over this driver’s handbook with the vehicle.
–
When
scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved Dealer for disposal of the
gas generator(s).
All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any
way when it is inflated and also to prevent the risk of serious injuries caused
by items which may be dislodged when the air bag inflates.

Operating faults
Indicator light 1, å, lights up when
the ignition is switched on and goes out
after a few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition
is switched on, or if it lights up when the
engine is running, it indicates a fault in
the system. In this case, fitting a child
seat in the front passenger seat is
PROHIBITED.
Contact an approved dealer as soon
as possible. Your protection will be re-
duced until this fault is rectified.

CHILD SAFETY: fitting a child seat (6/6)
X = Seat not suitable for fitting child seats.
U = Seat which allows a child seat with “Universal” approval to b e installed using a seat belt; check that it can be fitted.
IUF =
Seat
which, on equipped vehicles, allows forward-facing child seats with “Universal” approval to be attached by the ISOFIX
system: check that it can be fitted.
IL =
On
equipped vehicles, seat which allows an approved “semi-universal” or “vehicle specific” child seat to be attached using the
ISOFIX system; check that it can be fitted.
Refer to the brochure “Child safety equipment” available from the Network to choose the seat suited to your child and
recommended for your vehicle.
(1)
Only
a rear-facing child seat can be fitted in this seat: raise the seat to the maximum and position it as far back as possible,
tilting the seatback slightly (approximately 25°).
(2)
A
carrycot can be installed across the vehicle and will take up two seats. Position the child with his or her feet nearest the door.
(3)
Move
the front seat as far forward as possible to install a rear-facing child seat, then move back the seat in front as far as it will
go, although without allowing it to come into contact with the child sea\
t.
(4)
Forward-facing
child seat; position the seatback of the child seat in contact with the seatback of the vehicle seat. Adjust the
headrest, or remove it if necessary. Do not push the seat in front of the child more than halfway back on its runners and do not
recline the seatback more than 25°.
(7)
A
child seat may only be fitted in this seat if it is equipped with an inertia-reel seat belt. For any additional information, please
contact an authorised dealer.

DANGER
Since front passenger air
bag triggering and the po-
sition of a rear-facing child
seat are incompatible, it is not per-
mitted to fit such a seat in this posi-
tion unless the vehicle is fitted with an
air bag deactivation device. The child
may suffer very serious injuries if the
air bag inflates.
The markings on the dashboard and
on each side of passenger sun visor
3
will remind you of these instructions.

The passenger air bag must
be activated or deactivated
with the ignition off .
If handled when the igni-
tion is on, the warning light
å
comes on.
Switch the ignition off then on again
to reset the air bag in accordance
with the lock position.

Operating faults
It is forbidden to fit a rear-facing child
seat to the front passenger seat if the

as possible.
Activation of the front
passenger air bag
(depending on vehicle)
You should reactivate the airbag as
soon as you remove the child seat from

event of an impact.
To reactivate the airbag: with the ve-
hicle at a standstill and with the ignition
switched off, press and turn button
1
to
the ON position.
With the ignition switched on, it is es-
sential to check that warning light
