AUTOMATIC LOCKING WHEN DRIVING
Operating principleAfter the vehicle is started, the system
automatically locks the doors when you
are driving at approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h) and over.
The door can be unlocked:
– by pressing central door unlocking
switch 2.
– at a standstill, by opening a front
door from inside the vehicle.
Note: if a door is opened or closed, it
will automatically lock again when the
vehicle reaches a speed of 6 mph
(10 km/h).
Activating/deactivating the
function
To switch it on: with the vehicle at a
standstill and the engine running, press
switch 2 until a beep sounds.
To deactivate: with the vehicle at a
standstill and the engine running, press
switch 2 until two beeps sound.
You can also activate/deactivate the
function from the menu on the multime-
dia screen 1 (Refer to the information
on the “Vehicle settings customisation
menu” section 1, “Auto door locking
while driving” function).
Operating faults
If you experience an operating fault (no
automatic locking, the indicator light in-
corporated in switch 2 does not light up
when trying to lock the doors and boot,
etc.), make sure that locking has not
been deactivated by mistake and check
that the doors and boot are properly
closed. If they are correctly locked and
the fault is still present, contact an au-
thorised dealer.

Driver’s responsibility
If you decide to keep the
doors locked when you are
driving, remember that it
may be more difficult for those as-
sisting you to gain access to the
passenger compartment in the
event of an emergency.

SEAT BELTS (2/4)
Locking
Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly
and ensure that buckle 3 locks into
catch 5 (check that it is locked by pull- ing on buckle 3).
If the belt jams, allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If your seat belt is completely jammed,
pull slowly, but firmly, so that just over
3 cm unwinds. Allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If there is still a problem, contact an ap-
proved dealer.

ßDriver’s seat belt reminder
and, depending on the vehi-
cle, front passenger seat belt re-
minder
This lights up on the central display
when the engine is started. If the driv-
er’s or front passenger’s seat belt (if
this seat is occupied) is not fastened
and the vehicle has reached approxi-
mately 12.4 mph (20 km/h), it flashes
and a bleep sounds for around 120 sec-
onds.
Note: an object placed on the passen-
ger seat base may activate the warning
light in some cases.
Rear seat belt reminder
The warning light
ß lights up on
the central display accompanied, de-
pending on the vehicle, by a message
indicating the number of seat belts
buckled (for approximately 30 seconds)
or the graphic 6.
In all cases, these messages appear
with each:
– starting the vehicle;
– opening a door;
– fastening or unfastening of a rear seat belt (for this case, the informa-
tion is accompanied by a beep last-
ing approximately 30 seconds). Check that the rear passengers are
wearing seat belts and that the number
of seat belts shown as fastened cor-
responds to the number of rear seat
places occupied.
On the graphic 6:
– marker in green: seat belt fastened;
– marker in red: seat belt unfastened.
Unfastening
Press button 4 and the seat belt will be
rewound by the inertia reel. Guide the

CHILD SAFETY: General information (1/2)
Carrying children
Please ensure that you comply with the
legislation of your country.
Children, and adults, must be correctly
seated and strapped in for all journeys.
The children being carried in your vehi-
cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children
are at risk of specific injuries as their
muscles and bones have not yet fin-
ished growing. The seat belt alone
would not provide suitable protection.
Use an approved child seat and ensure
you use it correctly.
A collision at 30 mph
(50 km/h) is the same as fall-
ing a distance of 10 metres.
Transporting a child without
a restraint is the equivalent of allow-
ing him or her to play on a fourth-
floor balcony without railings.
Never travel with a child held in your
arms. In the event of an accident,
you will not be able to keep hold of
the child, even if you yourself are
wearing a seat belt.
If your vehicle has been involved in
a road accident, replace the child
seat and have the seat belts and
ISOFIX anchorage points checked.
To prevent the doors being
opened, use the “Child
safety” device (refer to the
information on “Opening
and closing the doors” in Section 1).
Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone on your vehicle, even for
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or by locking the
doors.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.
