FRONT SEAT BELTS
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 your
approved dealer.
çSeat belt reminder
light
Depending on the country, it comes on when the engine is started if the driv- er ’s seat belt is not fastened. When the vehicle is being driven, it comes on and a bleep sounds for approximately 2 minutes until the driver’s seat belt is fastened.
Unlocking
Press button 4 on catch 5 and the seat belt will be rewound by the inertia reel.
Guide the buckle to help the operation.
Adjusting the height
of the seat belt
Move button 1 to select the position you
require so that shoulder strap 2 is worn as described above.
Make sure that the seat belt is locked in position correctly after you have ad- justed it.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)
Driver’s and passenger
air bags
These may be provided for the driver and the front passenger seats.
The presence of this equipment is in- dicated by the words “Air bag” on the steering wheel and the dashboard, and a label on the base 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 computer for both systems, which
includes the impact sensor and a monitor controlling the electrical trig- ger system for the gas generator;
– a single warning light
å on the instrument panel.
Load limiter
Above a certain level of impact force, this mechanism is used to limit the force of the belt against the body so that it is at an acceptable level.
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. An air bag may inflate immediately, causing some minor, superficial grazing to the skin or other discom-
fort.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)
Operation
This system is only operational when the ignition is switched on.
If a severe frontal impact occurs, the air bag(s) inflate(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 the passengers are not impeded in any way when they get out of the vehicle.
In addition to the driver ’s air bag system, the passenger air bag system has a front passenger air bag deacti- vation warning light on the instrument panel. This warning light is associated with the front passenger air bag deacti- vation system.
It lights up to indicate that the passen- ger air bag will not be inflated in the event of an impact (for more informa- tion about the operation of this system, refer to the section on “Deactivating the
front passenger air bag” in Section 1).
Operating faults
Warning light 1 will light up on the in- strument panel when the ignition is turned on and then go out after a few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition is switched on, or comes on when the engine is running, there is a fault in the system.
In this case, a rear-facing child seat MUST NOT be fitted to the front pas- senger seat.
Allowing any other passenger to sit in that seat is not recommended.
In these two cases, contact your approved dealer as soon as possible.
The airbag system uses py- rotechnic principles. This explains why, when the airbag 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 airbag is de- ployed, it will inflate immediately and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other problems.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)
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 in- juries caused by items which may be dislodged when the air bag inflates.
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.
– You must not remove the steering wheel (such work must only be performed by trained 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 inflate properly and be fully effective.
w arnings concerning the passenger airbag: location
2
– Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard in the proximity of the air bag housing.
– Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, um- brella, 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, all parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knees, hands, head etc.).
– You should reactivate the passenger air bag as soon as you remove the child seat to ensure the protection of the front passenger in the event of an \
impact.
IT IS PROHIBITED TO FIT A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS THE RESTRAINT SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT
PASSENGER SEAT BELT HA vE BEEN DEACTIvATED.
(Refer to the information on “Deactivating the front- passenger air bag” in Section 1).

CHILD SAFETY : Deactivating/activating the front passenger airbag
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.
To deactivate the passenger air bag
Switch off the ignition, push and turn
lock 1 to the OFF position.
The air bag is deactivated.
When the ignition has been switched back on, it is essential to check that
the warning light
2, ], is lit on the instrument panel.
This warning light remains lit to con- firm that you can fit a child seat, as the passenger air bag has been de- activated.
Deactivating the front
passenger air bag(depending on vehicle)
To fit a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat, you must deacti- vate the front passenger air bag if your vehicle is fitted with air bag deactiva- tion.
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 label (on the dashboard) and the markings (on the sun visor) remind you of these instructions.

You should reactivate the air bag as soon as you remove the child seat from the front passenger seat to ensure the protection of your front passenger in the event of an impact.
To reactivate the airbag: switch off
the ignition, push and turn the lock 1 to the ON position.
With the ignition on, it is essential to
check that the warning light
2, ], is off. The front passenger airbag has
been activated.
