Locking
Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly
and ensure that buckle 3 locks into
catch 5 (check that it is locked by pull -
ing on buckle 3).
If the belt jams, allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again. If your seat belt becomes completely
jammed:
–
pull the belt slowly but firmly so that
just over 3 cm unwinds;
– then allow the seat belt to rewind au-
tomatically;
– unwind it again;
– if there is still a problem, contact an
approved Dealer.

Force limiter
Above a certain severity of impact, this
mechanism is used to limit the force of
the belt against the body so that it is at
an acceptable level.
Air bags for driver and front
passenger
Fitted to the driver and passenger side.
The presence of this equipment is in -
dicated by the word “Air bag” on the
steering wheel and the dashboard (air
bag zone A ) and a label on the lower
part of the windscreen or on the sun
visor.
Each air bag system consists of:
– an air bag and gas generator fitted
on the steering wheel for the driver
and in the dashboard for the front
passenger;
– a shared computer, which includes
the impact detector and the moni -
tor controlling the electrical trigger
system for each of the gas genera -
tors;
– depending on the vehicle, an addi -
tional side impact detector;
– a single
å warning light on the
instrument panel.
The air bag system uses
pyrotechnic principles. This
explains why, when the air
bag inflates, it will gener -
ate heat, produce smoke (this does
not mean that a fire is about to start)
and make a noise upon detonation.
In a situation where an air bag is
required, it will inflate immediately
and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other
problems.

Operation
The air bag system is only operational
when the ignition is switched on.
If a severe frontal impact occurs, the
air bag(s) deploy(s) rapidly, cushion -
ing the impact of the driver’s head and
chest against the steering wheel and
the front passenger’s head against the
dashboard. The air bag then deflates
immediately so that passengers are not
impeded in any way when they get out
of the vehicle.
Operating faults
This warning light 2 å will light up
on the instrument panel when the igni -
tion is switched on and then go out after
a few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition is
switched on, or comes on continuously
when the engine is running, there is a
fault in the system.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon
as possible. Your protection will be re-
duced until this fault is rectified.

All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any way when it is deployed and also to pre-
vent the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged\
when the air bag deploys.
Warnings concerning the driver’s air bag
– Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.
– Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.
– Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.
– The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel from our Network).
– When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your arms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting
your driving position” in Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to deploy correctly and be fully effective.
Warnings concerning the passenger air bag
– Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard on or near the air bag.
– Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umbrella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
– The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as there is a risk that serious injuries may occur. In
general, parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knee\
s, hands, head, etc.).
– The systems in addition to the front passenger seat belt should be reactivated as soon as a child seat is removed, to ensure
the protection of the passenger in the event of an impact.

U = Seat which allows a child seat with “Universal” approval to be installed using a seat belt; check that it can be fitted.
IUF/IL = On equipped vehicles, seat which allows an approved “Universal”/“semi-universal” or “vehicle specific” child seat to be
attached using the ISOFIX system; check that it can be fitted.
(2) Before fitting a rear-facing child seat: raise the seat to the maximum and position it as far back as possible, tilting the seatback
slightly (approximately 25°).
(3) It is recommended to position the rear seat as far back as possible ensuring, if required, that the floor support of the child seat
is resting on the floor in accordance with the child seat instructions.
(4) 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.
(5) Move the front seat as far forward as possible to install a rear-facing child seat, then move back the seat or seats in front as
far as they will go, although without allowing them to come into contact\
with the child seat.
(6) Forward-facing child seat; position the seatback of the child seat in contact with the seatback of the vehicle seat. Adjust the
height of 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°.
