Each seat has a head rest adjustable for
height and angle.
The three seats are equipped with inertia
reel seat belts. The seat belts are integral
with the backrest of the bench seat.
Ensure that the seat belt is attached to the
correct buckle.
For more information on the use of this
equipment, refer to "Seat belts" in section 4.

harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt against the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when
the ignition is switched on.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device
which automatically locks the strap in the
event of a collision or emergency braking or
if the vehicle rolls over.
You can unfasten the seat belt by pressing
the red button on the buckle. Guide the seat
belt after unfastening.
The airbag warning lamp comes on if the
pretensioners are deployed. Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
- restrain one person only,
- must not be twisted, check by pulling in front of you with an even movement,
- be tightened as close to the body as possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should be
positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low as
possible on the pelvis.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they
will not fulfil their role completely. If the Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one metre fifty,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap, even with the seat belt fastened. FRONT SEAT BELTS
For more information on child seats,
refer to the "Children on board" section
of chapter 4.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, your PEUGEOT dealer can
guarantee all work or any checks, from
testing to maintenance, on your seat belt
equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly (even
after a minor impact) by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop: they must not show
any signs of wear, cutting or fraying and they
must not be converted or modified.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by PEUGEOT dealers.
With front airbags
The front seats are fitted with pretensioners
and force limiters.
Without front airbag
If your vehicle is fitted with a front bench
without front airbag, the centre passenger's
seat belt does not have a pretensioner.
With bench seat
If your vehicle is fitted with a front bench
seat, take care to fasten the correct seat
belt using the correct buckle. Do not mix the
driver's seat belt or buckle with the buckle or
seat belt of the centre seat.
seats are fitted with armrests, the lap part of
the seat belt should always pass under the
armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap firmly.

Airbags
AP-EXPERT-VU_EN_CHAP04_SECURITE_ED01-2014
The airbags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants in the
event of a serious collision; they work in
conjunction with the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, the
electronic detectors record and analyse the
front and side impacts suffered in the impact
detection zones:
- in the event of a serious impact, the airbags infl ate instantly and contribute
towards better protecting the occupants of
the vehicle. Immediately after the impact,
the airbags defl ate rapidly, so that they do
not hinder the visibility of the occupants
nor their possible exit from the vehicle. - in the event of a minor or rear impact
and in certain roll-over conditions, the
airbags will not be deployed; the seat
belt alone is sufficient to contribute
towards your protection in these
situations.
The seriousness of the collision depends on
the nature of the obstacle and the speed of
the vehicle at the moment of impact. It is imperative that the passenger's
airbag is deactivated if a child seat
is installed facing rearwards. Refer to the
"Children on board" section of chapter 4. Airbags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.

AIRBAGS
This equipment only operates once. If a
second impact occurs (during the same or
a subsequent accident), the airbag will not
operate.
The deployment of an airbag or airbags
is accompanied by a slight discharge of
smoke and a noise, due to the activation
of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in
the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result in a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.

Good practice
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 hinder 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 is strictly
forbidden unless it is carried out by qualified
personnel at a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are
observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns
to the head, chest or arms when an airbag
is deployed cannot be ruled out. In fact, 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. Lateral airbags
Only put recommended covers on the seats.
These will not hinder inflation of the lateral
airbags. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs. This could cause injury to the chest
or arms when the lateral airbag inflates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.
Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by its spokes or resting your hands on the
centre part of the wheel.
Do not allow passengers to place their feet
on the dashboard, they risk serious injury if
the airbag is deployed.
Smoke as little as possible 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.

Deactivation
The passenger's front airbag alone can be
deactivated:
- with the ignition switched off , insert the key into the passenger's airbag
deactivation switch,
- turn it to the "OFF" position,
- then remove the key keeping the switch in the new position. Front airbags
The front airbags are fitted in the centre of
the steering wheel for the driver and in the
dashboard for the front passenger. Reactivation
In the
"OFF" position, the passenger's
airbag will not be deployed in the event of
an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed, turn
the airbag switch to the "ON" position to
reactivate the airbag and thus ensure the
safety of your passenger in the event of an
impact. To ensure the safety of your child, it is
essential to deactivate the passengers
airbag when you install a rear-facing child
seat on the front passenger seat. Otherwise,
the child would risk being killed or seriously
injured if the airbag were to inflate.
The airbag warning lamp in the
instrument panel is on while the
airbag is deactivated.
Deployment
They are deployed, except the passenger's
front airbag if it has been deactivated, in
the event of a serious front impact applied
to all or part of the front impact zone
A in
the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on
a horizontal plane directed from the front
towards the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag inflates between the front
occupant of the vehicle and the dashboard
to cushion their forward movement. If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the screen,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Front airbag fault
If the two airbag warning lamps are on
continuously, do not install a "rearward
facing" child seat. Contact a PEUGEOT or a
qualified workshop.

Child safety
AP-EXPERT-VU_EN_CHAP04_SECURITE_ED01-2014
GENERAL POINTS ON CHILD SEATS
"Rearward facing"
When a "rearward facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, it is
essential that the passenger's front airbag is
deactivated. Otherwise, the child would risk
being seriously injured or even killed if the
airbag were deployed. "Forward facing"
When a "forward facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, leave
the passenger's front airbag activated.
Installing a child seat at the front
The rules for carrying children are specific to
each country. Consult the current legislation
in your country.
Please consult the list of seats approved
in your country. The Isofix mountings, the
rear seats, the passenger airbag and the
deactivation of this airbag depend on the
version sold.
Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria
when designing your vehicle, the safety of
your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow these
precautions:
- all children under the age of 12 or less
than one metre fifty tall must travel in
approved child seats suited to their
weight, on seats fitted with a seat belt or
ISOFIX mountings,
- statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for the transportation of children
are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the "rearward facing" position
both in the front and in the rear,
- the passenger must not travel with a child on their lap.
