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.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/4)
Load limiter
Above a certain severity of impact, this 
mechanism is used to limit the force of 
the belt against the body so that it is at 
an acceptable level.
Airbags for driver and front 
passenger
Fitted to the driver and passenger side.
The presence of this equipment is indi-
cated by the word “airbag” on the steer-
ing wheel, dashboard (in the area of the 
airbag A) and, depending on the vehi-
cle, a label on the lower section of the 
windscreen.
Each airbag system consists of:
–  an airbag and gas generator fitted on  the steering wheel for the driver and 
in the dashboard for the passenger;
–  an electronic unit for system monitor- ing which controls the gas generator 
electrical trigger system;
– remote sensors;
– a single 
å warning light on the 
instrument panel.
A
The airbag system uses py-
rotechnic principles. This 
explains why, when the 
airbag inflates, it will gener-
ate heat, produce smoke (this does 
not mean that a fire is about to start) 
and make a banging noise. In a situ-
ation where an airbag is required, it 
will inflate immediately and this may 
cause some minor, superficial graz-
ing to the skin or other problems.  

1.34
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (3/4)
Operation
This system is only operational when 
the ignition is switched on.
In a severe frontal impact, the airbags 
inflate rapidly, cushioning the impact 
of the driver's head and chest against 
the steering wheel and of the front pas-
senger against the dashboard. The air 
bags then deflate immediately so that 
the passengers are not in any way hin-
dered from leaving the vehicle.
Operating faults
å  This warning light comes on 
when the engine is started and then 
goes out after approximately three sec-
onds.
If it does not come on when the ignition 
is switched on or if it stays on, there is a 
fault in the system.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon 
as possible.
Your protection will be reduced until this 
fault is rectified.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (4/4)
Warnings concerning the driver’s airbag 
– Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.
– Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.
–  Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.
–  The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel f\
rom our Network).
–  Do not sit too close to the steering wheel when driving: Sit with your a\
rms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting  your driving position” in Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to deploy correctly and to be fully effe ctive.
Warnings concerning the passenger airbag
–  Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder\
, etc.) to the dashboard on or near the airbag.
–  Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umb\
rella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
–  The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as t\
here is a risk that serious injuries may be sustained . 
In general, parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (k\
nees, hands, head, etc.)
–  The devices in addition to the front passenger seat belt should be react\
ivated as soon as a child seat is removed, to ensure  the protection of the passenger in the event of an impact.
A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS THE ADDITIONAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS, I.E. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG, ARE DEACTIVATED.
(refer to the information on “Child safety: deactivating/activating \
the front passenger airbag” in Section 1)
All of the warnings below are given so that the airbag  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\
 it inflates.
