language**, and – if necessary – requests that
relevant emergency services be dispatched**.
In countries where the ser vice is not available,
or when the locating ser vice has been
expressly declined, the call is sent directly

vehicle location.
If an impact is detected by the airbag
control unit, an emergency call is made
automatically and independently of the
deployment of any airbags.
Operation of the system
When the ignition is switched on, the indicator
lamp comes on for 3 seconds indicating that
the system is operating correctly.
If the indicator lamp lights up continuously red:

Front and rear seat belt warning
lamp(s)
On switching on the ignition, warning lamp
1 comes on in the instrument panel and the
corresponding warning lamp (2 to 6) comes on
in red in the seat belt and front passenger airbag
warning lamps display, if the corresponding seat
belt is not fastened or is unfastened.
If a rear seat belt is not fastened, the
corresponding warning lamp ( 4 to 6) lights
up for around 30
seconds.
Advice
The driver must ensure that passengers
use the seat belts correctly and that they
are all fastened before driving.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for
short journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt buckles
as they will not completely fulfil their role.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia
reel permitting automatic adjustment of
the length of the strap to your size. The
seat belt is stowed automatically when not
in use.
The inertia reels have an automatic
locking device at the time of a collision,
during sudden braking or if the vehicle
turns over. You can release the device by
pulling the strap firmly and then releasing
it so that it reels in slightly.
Before and after use, ensure that the seat
belt is reeled in correctly.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is
positioned and reeled in correctly. Installation
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in the
hollow of the shoulder.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
-

b
e tightened as close to the body as
possible,
-

b
e pulled in front of you with a smooth
movement, checking that it does not
twist,
-

b
e used to restrain only one person,
-

n
ot show any signs of cuts or fraying,
-

n
ot be converted or modified to avoid
affecting its performance.

Maintenance
In accordance with current safety
regulations, for all repairs on your
vehicle's seat belts, go to a qualified
workshop with the skills and equipment
needed, which a PEUGEOT dealer is able
to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regularly
by a PEUGEOT 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
PEUGEOT dealers.
Instructions for children
Use a suitable child seat if the passenger
is less than 12 years old or shorter than
one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to secure
more than one child.
Never allow a child to travel on your lap.
For more information on Child seats , refer
to the corresponding section. In case of impact
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of the impact
, the
pyrotechnic pretensioner may be deployed
before and independently of the airbags.
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 PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Airbags
General information
System designed to contribute towards improving
passenger safety (with the exception of the
rear centre passenger) in the event of violent
collisions. The airbags supplement the action of
the seat belts fitted with force limiters (all except
the rear centre passenger).
If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side impacts
sustained in the impact detection zones:
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.
- in the case of a serious impact, the airbags
are deployed instantly and contribute towards
better protection of the occupants of the
vehicle (with the exception of the rear centre
passenger); immediately after the impact,
the airbags deflate rapidly so that they do not
hinder visibility or the exit of the occupants,
-

i
n the case of a minor or rear impact or
in certain rollover conditions, the airbags
may not be deployed; the seat belt alone
contributes towards ensuring your protection
in these situations.
Safety

93
The deployment of one or more airbags
is accompanied by a slight emission of
smoke and a noise, due to the detonation
of the pyrotechnic charge incorporated in
the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience slight irritation.
The detonation noise associated with the
deployment of an airbag may result in a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.
Front airbags
System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious front
impact, in order to limit the risk of injury to the
head and thorax.
The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the
steering wheel; the front passenger airbag is
fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.
Deployment
The airbags are deployed (except the front
passenger airbag if it is deactivated) in the event
of a serious frontal impact to all or part of the
frontal impact zone A, in the longitudinal centreline
of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed
from the front to the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag inflates between the thorax and
head of the front occupant of the vehicle and the
steering wheel, driver's side, and the dashboard,
passenger's side, to cushion their for ward
movement.
Malfunction
If this warning lamp in the instrument
panel comes on, you must contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
The airbags may no longer deploy in
the event of a crash.
Lateral airbags
If fitted to your vehicle, this system protects
the driver and front passenger in the event of a
serious side impact in order to limit the risk of
injury to the chest, between the abdomen and
head.
Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest
frame, door side.
Deployment
The lateral airbags are deployed unilaterally in
the event of a serious side impact applied to all
or part of the side impact zone, perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The lateral airbag inflates between the front
occupant's abdomen and head and the
associated door trim panel.
Curtain airbags
System contributing towards greater protection
for the driver and passengers (with the
exception of the rear centre passenger) in the
event of a serious side impact in order to limit
the risk of injury to the side of the head.
Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and
the upper passenger compartment area.
