Front airbags
System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious front impact
in order to limit the risk of injury to the head and
thorax.
The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the
steering wheel; the front passenger's airbag is
fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.
Deployment
The airbags are deployed, except the
passenger's front airbag if it is deactivated, in
the event of a serious front impact to all or part
of the front impact zone A
, in the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane
and directed from the front to the rear of the
vehicle.
The front airbag inflates between the thorax
and head of the front occupant of the vehicle
and the steering wheel, driver's side, and the
dashboard, passenger's side to cushion their
for ward movement.
For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:
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.
If possible, do not smoke as deployment of
the airbags can cause burns or the risk of
injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or
hit it violently.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a CITROËN dealer (see "Practical
information - § Accessories").
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs (clothing...). This could cause injury
to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is
deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof.
This could cause injury to the head if the
curtain airbag is deployed.
If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove the
grab handles installed on the roof, they play
a part in securing the curtain airbags.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the occupants
and the airbags (a child, pet, object...). This
could hamper the operation of the airbags or
injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
All work on the airbag system must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned
are obser ved, a risk of injury or of minor
burns to the head, chest or arms when an
airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out. The
bag inflates almost instantly (within a few
milliseconds) then deflates within the same
time discharging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.
Changing a fuse
The extraction tweezer is fitted to a carrier
clipped to the dashboard fusebox cover.
For access to it:
open the glove box lid,
unclip the carrier on the fusebox cover by
pulling on the right
remove the tweezer,
Access to the tools
open the fusebox cover by pulling at top
right,
fold down completely the fusebox cover.
Changing foglamp bulbs
These bulbs are replaced from outside the rear
bumper:
pass your hand under the bumper,
turn the bulb holder a quarter turn and remove it,
turn the bulb a quarter turn, pull it out and fit a
new bulb.
For reassembly, carry out these operations in reverse
order.
Take care not to touch the silencer;
there is a risk of burns if changing a
bulb within a few minutes of switching
off the ignition.
Dashboard fuses
The fuseboxes are located in the lower
dashboard (left-hand side).
Access to the fuses
Refer to the paragraph "Access to the
tools".

Identifi cation markings
Various visible markings for the identification of your vehicle.
A. Vehicle identification number (VIN)
under the bonnet.
This number is engraved on the bodywork near
the suspension damper mounting.
B.
Vehicle identification number on the dashboard.
This number is indicated on a self-adhesive
label which is visible through the windscreen.
D. Tyre/paint label.
This label is affixed to the driver's front pillar.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption. The tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres are cold, at least once
a month.
C. Manufacturer's label.
The VIN is indicated on a self-destroying label
affixed to the driver's centre pillar. It bears the following information:
- the tyre pressures, for unladen and laden
conditions,
- the tyre sizes (including the load index and
speed rating),
- the spare tyre inflation pressure,
- the paint colour code.
