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.

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.

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.

The child seats function and the
passenger's front airbag deactivation
function are common to the entire
PEUGEOT range.
If the passenger's front airbag is not
deactivated, the installation of a "rearward
facing" child seat in the front is strictly
prohibited.
DEACTIVATING THE PASSENGER'S FRONT AIRBAG
Never install a rearward facing child
restraint system on a seat protected by
an active front airbag. This could cause the
death of the child or serious injury. The warning label present on both sides
of the passenger's sun visor repeats this
advice. In line with current legislation, the
following tables contain this warning in all of
the languages required. Passenger airbag OFF
For information on deactivating the
passenger's front airbag, refer to the
