Airbags Front airbags


Front airbag fault

Immediately after the impact, the airbags
deflate rapidly so that they do not hinder
the visibility of the occupants nor their exit if
necessary from the vehicle. The airbags are
not deployed in the case of minor impacts, rear impacts or in cer tain roll-over conditions. The seat belt is sufficient to ensure maximumprotection in these situations. The seriousness
of a collision depends on the nature of the
obstacle and the speed of the vehicle at the
m
oment of the collision.
Airbags only operate when the ignition is switched on. When they are deployed, a noise
is heard during inflation.
The airbags have been designed to maximise
the safety of the occupants in the event of serious collisions. They work in conjunction
with the force-limiting seat belts. The electronic detectors register and analyse any abrupt deceleration of the vehicle in the
impact detection zones (see diagram): if the
deployment threshold is reached, the airbags
in
flate instantly and protect the occupants of
the vehicle.

These are
fitted in the centre of the steering wheel for the driver and in the dashboard for the frontpassenger. They are deployed simultaneously,except in cases where the passenger's airbag is
deactivated, in the event of a serious front impact
applied in the impact zone A in the longitudinalAcentreline of the vehicle, on a horizontal plane and
from the front of the vehicle towards the rear. T he
airbag inflates between the front occupant of the
v
ehicle and the dashboard to cushion his forward movement. The airbags therefore limit the risk of injury to the head and chest.

55 Safety
To ensure the safety of your child, it is essential to deactivate the passenger'sairbag when you install a "rear-facing"child seat on the front passenger seat.
Other wise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the air bag wereto inflate.)With the ignition switched off, inser t thefkey into the passenger airbag deactivation switch 1, turn it to the "OFF"position, then remove the key keeping the switch in this position.
In the "OFF"position, the passenger airbag willnot be deployed in the event of an impact.
As soon as the "rear-facing"
child seat is
removed, turn the airbag switch to the "ON"position to re-activate the airbag and thus ensure the safety of your passenger in the
event of an impact. If the passen
ger airbag is
deactivated, the warning lamp in the
instrument panel remains on until the
passen
ger airbag is reactivated.

one of these airbags.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have thesystem checked. The airbags may no longer be
deployed in the event of a serious impact.

Lateral airbags * and
curtain airbags *

The lateral airbags are built into the front seatbacks on the door side.
The deployment of these airbags requires a
serious side impact applied in the side impact
zone B , perpendicular to the longitudinalcentreline of the vehicle, on a horizontal plane and from the outside of the vehicle towards the inside. The lateral airbag inflates between the front occupant of the vehicle and the door trimpanel. It therefore limits the risk of injury to the chest.
The cur tain airba
gs are built into the headlining.
The cur tain airba
g inflates between the front or rear occupant and the windows. It therefore
limits the risk of head injuries. In the event of a
minor impact or bump on the side of the vehicle
or if the vehicle rolls over, the airbag may notbe deployed. The airbag is not deployed in the event of a front or rear collision.
Deactivating the
passenger's airbag

56Safety
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.
Smoke as little as possible; deployment of the
airbags can cause burns or the risk of injuryfrom a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.


Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the pillars or the
roof. This could cause injury to the head when
the cur tain airbag inflates.
The deployment of an airbag or airbags is
accompanied b
y a slight emission of harmlesssmoke and a noise due to the activation of
the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system. This smoke is not harmful but sensitiveindividuals may experience some irritation.
The detonation noise may result in a slight loss
of hearing for a shor t time.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are
observed, injury or slight burns to the head,chest or arms when the air bag is deployed cannot be ruled out. Indeed, the bag inflates
almost instantly (approximately 30 milliseconds)
then deflates within the same time discharginghot gas via the openings provided for thispurpose.
This equipment will only operate once. If a second impact occurs (during the same or asubsequent accident), the airbag will not inflate.



Lateral airbags
Only put approved covers on the seats, these
will not hamper the inflation of the lateral
airbags. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Do not fix or attach anything to the front seatbacks. This could cause injury to the chest or
arms when the lateral airba
g inflates.
Do not sit with the upper par t of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.
For the front, lateral and cur tain airbags to be fully effective, obser ve the following safety rules:Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt. Sit in a normal upright position. Do not leave anything between the occupants and the airbags (child, animal, object...). This could hamper the operation of the airbags or injure the occupants. All work on the airbag systems is strictly prohibited unless it is carried out by qualified personnel of the PEUGEOTdealer network or a qualified workshop.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen or broken into, have theairbag systems checked.

General points
relating to child seats
Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria
when designing your vehicle, the safety of your children also depends on you.
"Rearwards-facing"
PEUGEOT recommends that children should
travel in the rear seats
of your vehicle:


- "rearwards-facing"up to the age of 2,

-
"forwards-facing"
over the age of 2.
"Forwards-facing"

Intermediate longitudinalposition
For maximum safety, please observethe following recommendations: - in accordance with European regulations, all children under theage of 12 or less than one and a half metres tall must travel in approved child seats suited totheir weight
, on seats fitted with a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings *
, -statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for carr yingchildren are the rear seats,- a child weighing less than 9 kgmust travel in the "rear wards-facing" position both in the frontand in the rear.

When a "rear wards-facing" child seat isinstalled on the front passenger seat
, it is essential that the passenger airbagis deactivated. Other wise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if the airbag were to inflate.

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 upri
ght and leave
the passenger airbag activated.

58Child safety
Passenger airbag OFF
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, youmust deactivate the passenger's frontairbag when you install a child seat inthe rear wards facing position on the
front passenger's seat. Other wise, there is a risk that the childcould be seriously injured or killed if theairbag were deployed.

8
61 Child safety
Children under the age of 10 must not travelin 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. Other wise, the child would risk beingseriously injured or killed if the airbag were to inflate.
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 windowsclosed,

- the keys within reach of children insidethe vehicle.
To protect young children from the rays of the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.
Installing a booster seat
The chest par t of the seat belt must bepositioned 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, fitted with a seat beltguide at shoulder level.

Advice on child seats
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's protection in the event of an accident.Remember to fasten the seat belts or the child seat harness keeping theslackin relation to the child's body to aminimum, even for short journeys.To install a child seat using the vehicle's seat belt, ensure that the belt is welltightened on the child seat and that itholds the child seat firmly against the vehicle's seat. 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 thehead restraint does not cause any discomfort. If the head restraint has to be removed,ensure that it is stored or attached
securely to prevent it from being thrownaround the vehicle in the event of sharpbraking.
