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. 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. Do not fit or attach anything to the steering wheel or dashboard, this could cause injuries with deployment of the airbags.
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. Refer to the "Accessories" section. 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...), nor fix or attach anything close to the inflation trajectory of the airbags; this could cause injuries during their deployment. Never modify the original definition of your vehicle, particularly in the area directly around the airbags. 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 observed, 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.

Emergency or assistance call
If an impact is detected by the airbag control unit, and independently of the deployment of any airbags, an emergency call is made automatically.
Localised Emergency Call
In an emergency, press this button for more than 2 seconds. Flashing of the green LED and a voice message confirm that the call has been made to the
"Localised Emergency Call" * centre.
Pressing this button again immediately cancels the call. The green LED goes off. Pressing this button (at any time) for more than 8 seconds cancels the call.
The green LED remains on (without flashing) when communication is established. It goes off at the end of the call.
This call is dealt with by the "Localised Emergency Call", which receives locating information from the vehicle and can send a detailed alert to the appropriate emergency services. In countries in which a centre is not operational, or when the locating service has been expressly declined, the call is dealt with directly by the emergency services (112) without the vehicle location.
* These services are subject to conditions and availability. Consult a CITROËN dealer.
If you benefit from the CITROËNConnect Box offer with the SOS and assistance pack included, there are additional services available to you in your MyCITROËN personal space, via the CITROËN Internet website in your country, accessible on www.citroen.com.
