For the airbags to be fully
effective, observe the safety
recommendations below:
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...), nor fix or attach anything close to
the inflation trajectory of the airbags; this
could cause injuries during their deployment.
Never modify the original definition of your
vehicle, particularly in the area directly
around the airbags.
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 CITROËN 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.
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 CITROËN dealer.
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.
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.
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.
Advice
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.

In most European countries, CITROËN
has established a partnership with a
specialist company that can check and
bring your electrical installation up to
standard. For more information, contact
a CITROËN dealer. In the event of damage to or
deterioration of the charging cable or
control unit, do not use it. Contact a
CITROËN dealer if in doubt or for a
replacement. You must always use only a genuine
CITROËN charging cable.
Before connecting, check that the
electrical installation you want to use
meets standards* and is compatible
with the rating of your charging unit.
If in doubt, call upon a professional
installer.
There are sockets available that are
specially designed for charging electric
vehicles.
For sockets dedicated to charging an
electric vehicle, refer to the installation
instructions for the socket.
In all cases, it is recommended that
that you first have an initial check
and then regular checks
carried out
on your installation by a qualified
electrician.
* For example, in France the standard is NF C 15 -100. must not stay inside the vehicle or near
the vehicle, charging cable, charging
unit or charging point, even for a short
time.
It is also important that you take advice
from your doctor on the precautions to
take and observe.
There are two types of charging you can use:
normal or fast.
Normal charging should be favoured; it is done
from a domestic mains power point.
Fast charging is done at a compatible fast
charging station.
