METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/3)
Driver and passenger front
airbags
It is fitted to the front seats on the driv-
er’s side and, depending on the vehicle,
on the passenger’s side as well.
Depending on the vehicle, an “air bag”
marking on the steering wheel and the
dashboard (air bag area A) indicates
that this device is fitted.
Each air bag system consists of:
– an air bag and gas generator fitted on the steering wheel for the driver
and in the dashboard for the front
passenger;
– an electronic unit for system monitor- ing which controls the gas generator
electrical trigger system;
– a special
å tell-tale light;
– remote sensors. Operation
This system is only operational when
the ignition is switched on.
If a severe frontal impact occurs, the
air bag(s) inflate rapidly, thus cushion-
ing the impact of the driver’s head and
chest on the steering wheel and those
of the passenger on the dashboard;
the air bag(s) then deflate immediately
after the impact to prevent the occu-
pants from being impeded in any way
when leaving the vehicle.
A
The air bag system uses
pyrotechnic principles. This
explains why, when the air
bag inflates, it will gener-
ate heat, produce smoke (this does
not mean that a fire is about to start)
and make a noise upon detonation.
In a situation where an air bag is
required, it will inflate immediately
and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other
problems.
3.15
WINDOWS (1/2)
Avoid resting any objects against a
half-open window: there is a risk that
the electric window winder could be
damaged.

Electric windows
With the ignition on:
– press the switch for the window concerned to lower it to the desired
height;
– lift the switch for the window concer- ned to raise it to the desired height.
From the driver’s seat
Operate the switches as follows:
– 1 for the driver’s side;
– 2 for the front passenger side. From the front passenger seat
Press switch 3.
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehi-
cle with the key, remote
control or transmitter-recei-
ver inside, and never leave a child,
adult who is not self-sufficient or a
pet, even for a short while. They
may pose a risk to themselves or to
others by starting the engine or acti-
vating equipment (such as the gear
lever or electric windows). If any
part of the body becomes trapped,
reverse the direction of the window
immediately by pressing the rele-
vant switch.
Risk of serious injury.

INTERIOR LIGHTING
12
Courtesy light
Use switch 1 to:
– permanent lighting;
– intermittent lighting, which comes on when a door is opened. It goes out
when the doors concerned are prop-
erly closed;
– immediate switching off.
Map reading lights(depending on the vehicle)

Note
Remote unlocking of the doors triggers
timed lighting of the passenger com-
partment.
If one of the front or rear doors is
opened, the timed lighting will start
again.
Then the courtesy light and the luggage
compartment light dim and go out. The
lighting timer will cut out for various rea-
sons:
– if a door has been open for 15 min- utes;
– if all the doors have been closed for 15 seconds:
– when the ignition is switched on.
Rear light 3
Turn switch 4 to:
– switch on continuous lighting;
– switch on intermittent lighting when one of the rear doors is opened. The
lights only go out when the doors are
correctly closed;
