AUTOMATIC LOCKING WHEN DRIVING
Operating principleAfter the vehicle is started, the system
automatically locks the doors when you
are driving at approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h) and over.
The door can be unlocked:
– by pressing central door unlocking
switch 2.
– at a standstill, by opening a front
door from inside the vehicle.
Note: if a door is opened or closed, it
will automatically lock again when the
vehicle reaches a speed of 6 mph
(10 km/h).
Activating/deactivating the
function
To switch it on: with the vehicle at a
standstill and the engine running, press
switch 2 until a beep sounds.
To deactivate: with the vehicle at a
standstill and the engine running, press
switch 2 until two beeps sound.
You can also activate/deactivate the
function from the menu on the multi-
function screen 1 (refer to the infor-
mation on the «Vehicle settings custo-
misation menu» section 1, «Auto door
locking while driving» function).
Operating faults
If you experience an operating fault (no
automatic locking, the indicator light in-
corporated in switch 2 does not light up
when trying to lock the doors and boot,
etc.), make sure that locking has not
been deactivated by mistake and check
that the doors and boot are properly
closed. If they are correctly locked and
the fault is still present, contact an au-
thorised dealer.

Driver’s responsibility
If you decide to keep the
doors locked when you are
driving, remember that it
may be more difficult for those as-
sisting you to gain access to the
passenger compartment in the
event of an emergency.

FRONT SEATS WITH ELECTRIC CONTROLS (1/2)
For safety reasons, carry
out any adjustments when
the vehicle is not being
driven.
Make sure that the seatbacks are
correctly locked in place.
We would advise you not to recline
the seatbacks too far to ensure that
the effectiveness of the seat belts is
not reduced.
No object should be placed on the
floor (in front of the driver). such
objects may slide under the pedals
during sudden braking manoeuvres
and obstruct their use.

Always wear your seat belt when trav-
elling in your vehicle. You must also
comply with the legislation of the par-
ticular country you are in.
SEAT BELTS (1/3)
Seat belts which are incor-
rectly adjusted or twisted
may cause injuries in the
event of an accident.
Use one seat belt per person,
whether child or adult.
Even pregnant women should wear
a seat belt. In this case, ensure that
the lap belt is not exerting too much
pressure on the abdomen, but do
not allow any slack.
Before starting, first adjust your driv-
ing position, then ask all occupants
to adjust their seat belts to ensure
optimum protection.
Adjusting your driving
position
– Sit well back in your seat (having
first removed your coat or jacket).
This is essential to ensure your back
is positioned correctly;
– adjust the distance between the seat and the pedals. Your seat
should be as far back as possible
while still allowing you to depress
the clutch pedal fully. The seatback
should be adjusted so that your arms
are slightly bent when you hold the
steering wheel;
– adjust the position of your head- rest. For maximum safety, your head
must be as close as possible to the
headrest;
– adjust the height of the seat. This
adjustment allows you to select the
seat position which offers you the
best possible view;
– adjust the position of the steering
wheel.
Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the
seatback.
Shoulder strap 1 should be as close as
possible to the base of the neck but not
on it.
Lap belt 2 should be worn flat over the
thighs and against the pelvis.
The belt should be worn so that it is
as close as possible to your body, ie.:
avoid wearing heavy clothing or keep-
ing bulky objects under the belts, etc.

Locking
Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly
and ensure that buckle 3 locks into
catch 5 (check that it is locked by pull-
ing on buckle 3).
If the belt jams, allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If your seat belt is completely jammed,
pull slowly, but firmly, so that just over
3 cm unwinds. Allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If there is still a problem, contact an ap-
proved dealer.
ßDriver’s seat belt reminder
and, depending on the vehi-
cle, front passenger seat belt re-

mirror when starting the engine then,
if the driver’s or front passenger’s seat
belt (if this seat is occupied) is not fas-
tened and the vehicle has reached
approximately 12 mph (20 km/h), it
flashes and a bleep sounds for around
120 seconds.
Note: an object placed on the passen-
ger seat base may activate the warning
light in some cases.
Rear seat belt reminder (depending
on vehicle)
Warning light
ß lights up on the
instrument panel, accompanied by the

– No modification may be made to the component parts of the originally
fitted restraint system: belts, seats and their mountings. For special o\
p-
erations (e.g. fitting child seats) contact an authorised dealer.
– Do not use devices which allow any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes
pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too loosely may cause inj\
ury in the
event of an accident.
– Never wear the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back.
– Never use the same belt for more than one person and never hold a baby o\
r child on your lap with your seat belt around them.
– The belt should never be twisted.
– Following an accident, have the seat belts checked and replaced if neces\
sary. Always replace your seat belts as soon as they show any signs of wear.
– Make sure that the buckle is inserted into the appropriate catch.
– Ensure that no objects are placed in the area around the seat belt catch\
as they could prevent it from being properly secured.
– When refitting the rear seats, make sure the seat belts are correctly po\
sitioned so that they can be used correctly.
– Make sure the seat belt catch is properly positioned (it should not be \
hidden away, crushed or flattened by people or objects).
The following information applies to the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts.

1.31
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (1/4)
Depending on the vehicle, they are
composed of:
– seat belt inertia reel pretension-ers;
– central seat belt pretensioners;
– chest-level load limiter;
– air bags for driver and front pas- senger.
These systems are designed to act in-
dependently or together when the vehi-
cle is subjected to a frontal impact.
Depending on the severity of the
impact, the system can trigger:
– seat belt locking;
– the seat belt inertia reel pretensioner (which engages to correct seat belt
slack);
– the lap belt pretensioners to hold the occupant in his seat;
– the front airbag.
Pretensioners
The pretensioners hold the seat belt
against the body, holding the occupant
more securely against the seat, thus in-
creasing the seat belt’s efficiency.
In the event of a severe frontal impact
and if the ignition is switched on, the
system may engage the following de-
pending on the force of the impact:
– the seat belt inertia reel preten- sioner 1 which instantly retracts the
seat belt;
– the lap pretensioner 2 on the front
seats.
– Have the entire restraint
system checked following
an accident.
– No operation whatso-
ever is permitted on any part of
the system (pretensioners, air
bags, computers, wiring) and the
system components must not
be reused on any other vehicle,
even if identical.
– To avoid incorrect triggering of the system which may cause
injury, only qualified personnel
from an approved Dealer may
work on the pretensioner and air
bag system.
– The electric trigger system may only be tested by a specially
trained technician using special
equipment.
– When the vehicle is scrapped, contact an approved Dealer for
disposal of the pretensioner and
air bag gas generators.
