Additional methods of restraint
The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both the airbags and seat belts are integral parts of
the same protection system. It is therefore essential to wear the seat belt at all times. If seat belts are not worn, the oc-
cupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor su-
perficial injuries occurring when the airbag is deployed, although such minor injuries are always possible with airbags.
If the vehicle should overturn or suffer a rear impact, however severe, the pretensioners and air bags are not always triggered.
Impacts to the underside of the vehicle, e.g. from pavements, potholes o\
r stones, can all trigger these systems.
–

No

work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the driver or passenger air bag system (air bag, elec-
tronic unit, wiring, etc.), except by qualified personnel from our Netw\
ork.
–

T

o ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidental triggering of the system which could cause injury,
only qualified personnel from our Network may work on the air bag system\
.
–

As

a safety precaution, have the air bag system checked if your vehicle has been involved in an accident, or is stolen or
broken into.
–

When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these p
oints and hand over this driver’s handbook with the vehicle.
–

When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved Dealer fo
r disposal of the gas generator(s).
All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent
the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when\
the air bag inflates.

CHILD SAFETY: mounting a child seat (1/2)
Attachment via the seat belt
The seat belt must be adjusted to
ensure that it is effective in the event of
harsh braking or an impact.
Ensure that the strap paths indicated
by the child seat manufacturer are re-
spected.
Always check that the seat belt is cor-
rectly fastened by pulling it up, then
pulling it out fully whilst pressing on the
child seat.
Check that the seat is correctly held by
moving it from side to side and back
to front: the seat should remain firmly
fixed.
Check that the child seat has not been
installed at an angle and that it is not
resting against a window. Attachment with the ISOFIX system
Authorised ISOFIX child seats are ap-
proved in accordance with regulation
ECE-R44 in one of the three following
scenarios:
–

ISOFI
X universal 3 point forwardfac-
ing seat;
–

ISOFI
X semi-universal 2 point seat;
–

specific.
For

the latter two, check that your child
seat can be installed by consulting the
list of compatible vehicles.
Attach the child seat with the ISOFIX
locks, if these are provided. The ISOFIX
system allows quick, easy, safe fitting.
The ISOFIX system is composed of
2
rings for each rear side seat.
Before using an ISOFIX
child seat that you pur-
chased for another vehicle,
check that its installation is
authorised. Consult the list of ve-
hicles which can be fitted with the
seat with the equipment manufac-
turer.
No modifications may be
made to the component
parts of the restraint system
(belts, ISOFIX and seats
and their mountings) originally fitted.
The seat belt must never
be twisted or the tension
relieved. Never pass the
shoulder strap under the
arm or behind the back.
Check that the seat belt has not
been damaged by sharp edges.
If the seat belt does not operate nor-
mally, it will not protect the child.
Consult an approved dealer. Do not
use this seat until the seat belt has
been repaired.
Do not use the child seat
if it may unfasten the seat
belt restraining it: the base
of the seat must not rest on
the buckle and/or catch of the seat
belt.

SERIOUS INJURY: before
fitting a child seat in this
seat, check that the air bag
has been deactivated (refer to the in-

The types of child seats indicated may
not be available. Before using a differ-
ent child seat, check with the manufac-
turer that it can be fitted.
Fit the child seat in a rear
seat wherever possible.
Check that when installing
the child seat in the vehicle
it is not at risk of coming loose from
its base.
If you have to remove the headrest,
check that it is correctly stored so
that it does not come loose under
harsh braking or impact.
Always attach the child seat to the
vehicle even if it is not in use so that
it does not come loose under harsh
braking or impact.

DANGER
Since operation of the front
passenger air bag is not
compatible with the position
of a rear-facing child seat, NEVER
fit a rear-facing child seat on a front
passenger seat with an active front
air bag. The child may suffer very
serious injuries if the air bag is trig-
gered.
