the driver must ensure that passengers use
the seat belts correctly and that they are all
fastened before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.

Before and after use, ensure that the seat
belt is reeled in correctly.
th

e lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the pelvis.
th

e upper part must be positioned in the
hollow of the shoulder.
th

e 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 on child seats, refer to
the corresponding 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

After folding or moving a seat or rear bench
seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned
and reeled in correctly.

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 P

Advice

Child seats
the incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
Check that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat as this could
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses keeping the slack in
relation to the child's body to a minimum,
even for short journeys.
For the installation of a child seat using a
seat belt, ensure that this is well tensioned
on the child seat and that it is holding the
child seat firmly against the seat of your
vehicle. If your front passenger seat is
adjustable, move it forward if necessary.
At the rear seats, always leave sufficient
space between the front seat and:
-

a r
ear ward facing child seat,
-

t
he feet of a child seated in a for ward
facing child seat.
For this, move the front seat for ward and if
necessary straighten its backrest.
Recommendations
Installing a booster
cushion
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- o ne or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
-

a c
hild or an animal in a vehicle which
is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,
-

t
he keys within reach of children inside
the vehicle.
to p

revent accidental opening of the doors,
use the child lock.
ta

ke care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
to p

rotect young children from the rays of
the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.
th
e chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
en
sure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
P
e
uge
Ot
recommends the use of a booster
seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt
guide at shoulder level.
For optimum installation of the forward facing
child seat, ensure that the back of the child
seat is as close as possible to the backrest
of the vehicle's seat, or in contact if possible.
th

e head restraint must be removed before
installing a child seat with a backrest on the
passenger seat.
en

sure that the head restraint is stowed or
attached securely so that it is not thrown
around the vehicle in the event of sharp
braking.
Refit the head restraint as soon as the child
seat is removed.Children at the front
the legislation on carrying a child on the
front passenger seat is specific to each
country. Refer to the legislation in force in
the country in which you are driving.
Deactivate the passenger's front airbag
when a rear ward facing child seat is installed
on the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the
child would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the airbag were deployed.
