Seat belts
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fitted with a pyrotechnic
pretensioning and force limiting system.
This system improves safety in the front
seats in the event of a front or side impact.
Depending on the severity of the impact, the
pretensioning system instantly tightens the seat
belts against the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when
the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt on the chest of the occupant, thus
improving their protection. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Advice
The driver must ensure that passengers
use the seat belts correctly and that they
are all fastened before setting off.
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 fulfil their role fully.
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.
Before and after use, ensure that the seat
belt is reeled in correctly.
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.
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.Advice
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.
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.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is
positioned and reeled in correctly. 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 person.
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 system may be deployed
before and independent 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 is lit.
After an impact, get the seat belt system
checked and if necessary have it replaced
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Airbags
System designed to contribute towards
improving the safety of the occupants (with the
exception of the centre seat in row 2) in the
event of violent collisions.
The airbags supplement the action of the force-
limiting seat belts.
If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side impacts
sustained in the impact detection zones:
-
i
n the event of a serious impact, the airbags
are deployed instantly and contribute
towards better protection of the occupants
(with the exception of the centre seat in row
2); 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.
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. Frontal impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
Airbag deployment generates slight
smoke emissions and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
Although this smoke is not harmful,
sensitive individuals may experience slight
irritation.
The noise generated by the deployment
of one or more airbags (detonation)
may result in mild and temporary loss of
hearing.
Front airbags
System which protects the driver and
passenger(s) 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 roof.
With the 2-seat front bench seat, the passenger
sitting in the centre is also protected.
Deployment
They are deployed, except the front passenger(s)
airbag if it is deactivated, in the event of a serious
front impact to all or part of the frontal impact
zone A , in the longitudinal centre line 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.
Safety

107
When driving, keep the glove box closed.
Other wise, there is a risk of injury in the
event of an accident or sudden braking.
Lateral airbags
Deployment
They 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.
Deployment
They 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 curtain airbag inflates between the outer
rear passenger and the windows.
In the event of a minor impact or bump on
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 is deployed.
Curtain airbags
If fitted to your vehicle, this is a system that
contributes towards greater protection for the
driver and 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.With the 2-seat front bench seat, the
passenger sitting in the centre is not
protected.
If fitted to your vehicle, this is a system that
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.

Safety

108
Advice
For the airbags to be fully effective,
observe the safety recommendations
below.
Adopt a normal and upright sitting
position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,
object, etc.), nor fix or attach anything
close to or in the way of the airbag release
trajectory; this could cause injuries during
their deployment.
Do not place objects on the dashboard.
Never modify the original definition of your
vehicle, particularly in the area directly
around the airbags.
After an accident or if the vehicle has
been stolen, have the airbag systems
checked.
All work on the airbag systems must be
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned
are obser ved, a risk of injury or of minor
burns to the head, chest or arms when an
airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out.
The airbag inflates almost instantly (within
a few milliseconds) then deflates within
the same time discharging the hot gas via
openings provided for this purpose.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.
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof,
as this could cause head injuries when the
curtain airbag is deployed.
If fitted to your vehicle, do not remove the
grab handles installed on the roof, they
play a part in securing the curtain airbags.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment of the
lateral airbags. For information on the
product range of seat covers suitable for
your vehicle, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backrests (clothes, etc.), as this could
cause injuries to the thorax or arm when
the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.
The vehicle's front door panels include
side impact sensors.
A damaged door or any unauthorised or
incorrectly executed work (modification or
repair) on the front doors or their interior
trim could compromise the operation of
these sensors – risk of malfunction of the
lateral airbags!
Such work must only be done by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

-

A c
hild weighing less than 9 kg must
travel in the rear ward-facing position
both in the front and in the rear.
It is recommended that children travel on
the rear seats of your vehicle:
-
"rearward facing " up to the age of 3,
-
"forward facing " over the age of 3. Ensure that the seat belt is positioned and
tightened correctly.
For child seats with a support leg, ensure
that the latter is in firm and steady contact
with the floor.
In the front: if necessary, adjust the
passenger seat.
At the rear: if necessary, adjust the
relevant front seat.
Remove and stow the head restraint
before installing a child seat with backrest
on a passenger seat. Refit the head
restraint once the child seat has been
removed.
Child seat at the front
When a child seat is installed on the front
passenger seat
, adjust the seat to the highest
position , in the rearmost longitudinal
position , with the backrest straightened .
"Rearward facing"
The front passenger airbag must be
deactivated. Otherwise, the child risks
