Front seat belt not fastened / 
unfastened warning lamp
If the driver does not fasten their seat belt 
within one minute after switching on the 
ignition, the warning lamp flashes accompanied 
by an intermittent audible signal.
After about 90 seconds, the warning lamp, the 
audible signal and the display stop, and then 
return until the driver fastens their seat belt.
If the seat belt is unfastened while the vehicle 
is moving , you are warned by the same alerts.
The front seat belts are fitted with a 
pretensioning and force limiting system.
This system improves safety in the front 
seats in the event of a front or side impact. 
Depending on the severity of the impact, the 
pretensioning system instantly tightens the seat 
belts against the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when 
the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the 
seat belt on the chest of the occupant, so 
improving their protection.
Unfastening
F Press the red button on the buckle A
.When the ignition is switched 
on, this warning lamp comes on 
accompanied by an audible signal 
for a few seconds if the driver and/
or passenger has not fastened their 
seat belt.

The driver must ensure that passengers use 
the seat belts correctly and that they are all 
restrained securely before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle, 
always fasten your seat belt, even for short 
journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt buckles as 
they will not fulfil their role fully.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel 
permitting automatic adjustment of the 
length of the strap to your size. The seat belt 
is stowed automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the seat 
belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be 
positioned as low as possible on the pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in the 
hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fitted with an automatic 
locking device which comes into operation in 
the event of a collision, emergency braking 
or if the vehicle rolls over. You can release 
the device by pulling the strap firmly and 
then releasing it so that it reels in slightly.Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the passenger is 
less than 12 years old or shorter than one 
and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to secure more 
than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your lap.
For more information, refer to the "Child 
seats" section.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
-
 b
e tightened as close to the body as 
possible,
-
 
b
e pulled in front of you with a smooth 
movement, checking that it does not 
twist,
-
 
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 
affecting its performance.
In accordance with current safety 
regulations, for all repairs on your vehicle's 
seat belts, go to a qualified workshop with 
the skills and equipment needed, which a 
PEUGEOT dealer is able to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regularly by a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop, 
particularly if the straps show signs of 
damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy 
water or a textile cleaning product, sold by 
PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear bench 
seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned 
and reeled in correctly.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and 
seriousness of the impact , the 
pretensioning device may be deployed 
before and independently of the airbags. 
Deployment of the pretensioners is 
accompanied by a slight discharge of 
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the 
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge 
incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat belts 
system checked, and if necessary replaced, 
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop.

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 hamper 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 must be 
carried out by 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. 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
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 PEUGEOT  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.
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.
For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:
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.

General points relating to child seats
For maximum safety, please observe the 
following recommendations:
- 
i
 n accordance with European regulations, 
all children under the age of 12 or less 
than one and a half metres tall must 
travel in approved child seats suited to 
their weight , on seats fitted with a seat 
belt or ISOFIX mountings*,
-
 
s
 tatistically, the safest seats in your 
vehicle for carr ying children are the 
rear seats,
-
 
a c
 hild weighing less than 9 kg must 
travel in the rear ward facing position 
both in the front and in the rear. PEUGEOT recommends
 that children 
should travel in the outer  rear seats of 
your vehicle:
-
 
re
 arward facing up to the age of 3,
-
 
fo
 rward facing over the age of 3.
Although one of PEUGEOT main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safety of your children 
also depends on you.
