Safety
5Have the seat belts checked regularly by a 
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop, 
particularly if the straps show signs of 
damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy water or 
a textile cleaning product, sold by CITROËN 
dealers.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and 
seriousness of the impacts, the pyrotechnic 
device may trigger before and independently 
of airbag deployment. 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 belt 
system checked, and if necessary replaced, 
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
Airbags
General information
This system is designed to improve the safety 
of the occupants of the front seats and the rear 
outer seats in the event of a violent collision. The 
airbags supplement the action of the seat belts 
equipped with a force limiting system.
Electronic detectors record and analyse the 
front and side impacts sustained in the impact 
detection zones:
–
 
In the event of violent impact, the airbags 
deploy instantly and help better protect the 
occupants of the vehicle; immediately after the 
impact, the airbags deflate rapidly in order not 
to hinder the visibility or the possible exit of the 
occupants.
–
 
In the event of a slight impact, a rear impact 
and under certain rollover conditions, the airbags 
may not deploy; only the seat belt helps to 
protect you in these situations.
The seriousness of the impact depends on the 
nature of the obstacle and the speed of the 
vehicle at the moment of collision.
The airbags do not operate when the 
ignition is switched off.
This equipment will only deploy once. If a 
second impact occurs (during the same or a 
subsequent accident), the airbag will not be 
deployed again.
Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone
B. Side impact zone
When one or more airbags are deployed, 
the detonation of the pyrotechnic charge 
incorporated in the system makes a noise and 
releases a small quantity of smoke.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive 
individuals may experience irritation.
The detonation noise associated with the 
deployment of one or more airbags may result 
in a slight loss of hearing for a short time.

Safety
5If fitted to the vehicle, this system offers 
enhanced protection for the driver and 
passenger in the event of a serious side impact, 
limiting the risk of injury to the side of the head.
Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and 
the upper passenger compartment area.
With the two-seat front bench seat, the 
passenger sitting in the centre is not 
protected.
 
 
If fitted to the vehicle, this system offers 
enhanced protection for the driver and 
passengers (except in the central seats) in the 
event of a serious side impact, limiting the risk of 
injury to the side of the head.
Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and 
the upper passenger compartment area.
Deployment
It deploys simultaneously with the corresponding 
lateral airbag in the event of a serious side 
impact applied to all or part of the side impact 
zone B.
The curtain airbag inflates between the front 
and rear occupants of the vehicle and the 
corresponding windows.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning 
lamp lights up on the instrument panel. 
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked.
The airbags may not be deployed in the event of 
a serious impact.
In the event of a minor impact or bump at 
the side of the vehicle or if the vehicle 
rolls over, the airbags may not be deployed.
In the event of a rear or front collision, none of 
the lateral airbags are deployed.
Advice
For the airbags to be fully effective, 
observe the safety recommendations 
below.
Adopt a normal and upright sitting position.
Fasten your seat belt and position it correctly.
Do not place anything between the occupants 
and the airbags (e.g.
  child, animal, object), do 
not fix or attach anything near or in the path of 
the airbags, as this could cause injuries when 
they are deployed.
Do not place objects on the dashboard.
Never modify the original definition of the 
vehicle, particularly in the area directly around 
the airbags.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are 
observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns to 
the head, chest or arms cannot be ruled out 
when an airbag is deployed. 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.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been 
stolen, have the airbag systems checked.
All work must be carried out only by a 
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
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 fix or attach anything to the steering 
wheel or dashboard, as this could cause 
injuries when the airbags are deployed.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved seat covers 
compatible with the deployment of these 
airbags. For information on the range of seat 
covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a 
CITROËN dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat 
backrests (e.g.
  clothing) as this could cause 
injuries to the chest or arm when the airbag is 
deployed.

Safety
 
Warning label - Front passenger airbag 
 
You must comply with the following instruction, 
as reminded by the warning label on both sides 
of the passenger sun visor:
NEVER use a rearward facing child restraint 
on a seat protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in 
front of it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the  CHILD can occur.
Deactivating the front 
passenger airbag
To ensure the safety of the child, the front passenger airbag MUST be deactivated 
when a "rearward facing" child seat is 
installed on the front passenger seat. 
Otherwise, the child risks being seriously 
injured or killed in the event of deployment of 
the   airbag.
Vehicles not equipped with a 
deactivation/reactivation control
Installing a "rearward
  facing" child seat on the 
front passenger seat or bench seat is strictly 
prohibited - risk of death or serious injury in 
the event of airbag deployment!
 
 
 
 
With the Extenso Cab or the Crew cab, 
deactivate the front passenger airbag 
when transporting long objects.
Deactivating/Reactivating the front 
passenger airbag
For vehicles on which it is fitted, the switch is 
located on the side of the dashboard.
 
 
With the ignition off:
►  T o deactivate the airbag, turn the key in the 
switch to the "OFF " position. 
►
 
T
 o reactivate it, turn the key to the "ON" 
position.
When the ignition is switched on:
This warning lamp comes on and remains  lit to signal deactivation.
 
 
OrThis warning lamp comes on for about 1 minute to signal activation.
