The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both t\
he
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 be\
lts are
not worn, the occupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the\
event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superficial\
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 pre-
tensioners and air bags are not always triggered. Impacts to the undersi\
de of the
vehicle, e.g. from pavements, potholes or 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, electronic unit, wiring, e\
tc.), except
by qualified personnel from our Network.
– To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidenta\
l trig- gering 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 points and\
hand over this driver’s handbook with the vehicle.
– When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved Dealer for disposal o\
f the gas generator(s).
All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructe\
d 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.
ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT
Operating faults
This warning light å will light up on
the instrument panel when the ignition
is switched on and then go out after a
few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition
is switched on, or if it lights up when the
engine is running, it indicates a fault in
the system. In this case, fitting a child
seat in the front passenger seat is
PROHIBITED.
Contact an approved dealer as soon
as possible. Your protection will be re-
duced until this fault is rectified.

CHILD SAFETY: fitting a child seat (6/6)
X = Seat not suitable for fitting child seats.
U = Seat which allows a child seat with “Universal” approval to be ins\
talled using a seat belt; check that it can be fitted.
IUF = Seat which, on equipped vehicles, allows forward-facing child seats with\
“Universal” approval to be attached by the ISOFIX
system: check that it can be fitted.
IL = On equipped vehicles, seat which allows an approved “semi-universal”\
or “vehicle specific” child seat to be attached using the
ISOFIX system; check that it can be fitted.
Refer to the brochure “Child safety equipment” available from the Network to choose the \
seat suited to your child and
recommended for your vehicle.
(1) Only a rear-facing child seat can be fitted in this seat: raise the seat\
to the maximum and position it as far back as possible ,
tilting the seatback slightly (approximately 25°).
(2) A carrycot can be installed across the vehicle and will take up two seats\
. Position the child with his or her feet nearest the door.
(3) Move the front seat as far forward as possible to install a rear-facing \
child seat, then move back the seat in front as far as it will
go, although without allowing it to come into contact with the child sea\
t.
(4) Forward-facing child seat; position the seatback of the child seat in co\
ntact with the seatback of the vehicle seat. Adjust the
headrest, or remove it if necessary. Do not push the seat in front of the child more than halfway back on i\
ts runners and do no t
recline the seatback more than 25°.
(7) A child seat may only be fitted in this seat if it is equipped with an in\
ertia-reel seat belt. For any additional information, please
