Seat belts
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fitted with a pretensioning   and   force   limiting   system.
This
  system   improves   safety   in   the   front  
s

eats   in   the   event   of   a   front   or   side   impact.  
D

epending   on   the   severity   of   the   impact,   the  
p

retensioning   system   instantly   tightens   the   seat  
b

elts   against   the   body   of   the   occupants.
The
  pretensioning   seat   belts   are   active   when  
t

he   ignition   is   on.
The
  force   limiter   reduces   the   pressure   of   the  
s

eat belt on the chest of the occupant, so
improving
  their   protection.Fastening

t

hey   will   not   fulfil   their   role   fully.
The
  seat   belts   are   fitted   with   an   inertia   reel

a

s   low   as   possible   on   the   pelvis.
The
  upper   part   must   be   positioned   in   the  
h

ollow   of   the   shoulder.

he   event   of   a   collision,   emergency   braking  
o

r   if   the   vehicle   rolls   over.   You   can   release  
t

he   device   by   pulling   the   strap   firmly   and   then  
r

eleasing   it   so   that   it   reels   in   slightly.In
  order   to   be   effective,   a   seat   belt   must:
-  b e   tightened   as   close   to   the   body   as  
p

ossible,
-
 
b
e   pulled   in   front   of   you   with   a   smooth  
m

ovement,   checking   that   it   does   not  
t

wist,
-
 
b
e   used   to   restrain   only   one   person,
-
 
n
ot   bear   any   trace   of   cuts   or   fraying,
-
 
n
ot   be   converted   or   modified   to   avoid  
a

ffecting
 it

Have
  your   seat   belts   checked   regularly   by  
a

  CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop,  
p

d

amage.
