work correctly:
-

u
nder poor visibility conditions (snow,
heavy rain, etc.),
-

i
f the windscreen is dirty, misted or
obscured (by a
sticker, etc.) in front of
the camera,
-

i
f the vehicle is facing highly reflective
signs.
When the system detects thick fog, it
temporarily deactivates the function.
The system is not able to detect:
-

r
oad users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians,
-

v
ehicles whose lighting is obscured
(for example: vehicles running behind
a
safety barrier on a motor way),
-

v
ehicles at the top or bottom of
a
steep slope, on winding roads, on
crossroads. Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal sur face of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
conceal the detection camera.
Clean the front bumper, especially around
the radar, removing mud, snow, etc.

Seat belts
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fitted with a pyrotechnic
p retensioning 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.

w arning lamps flash, associated with an
audible signal, for two minutes. Beyond this
period of time, the warning lamps stay on
continuously until the seat belts are fastened.

When the ignition is switched on, with the
engine running or the vehicle moving above
6
mph (10 km/h), warning lamp A and the
corresponding dots in warning lamp B come on
for around thirty seconds, if one or more rear
passengers have not fastened their seat belts.
Seat belts unfastened alert
After the ignition is switched on, warning lamp
A and the corresponding dots in warning lamp
B come on if the driver and/or one or more
passengers unfasten their seat belts.
These warning lamps flash for 30
seconds,
accompanied by an audible signal. Beyond
this period of time, the warning lamps stay on
continuously until the seat belts are fastened.
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.
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.
Recommendations 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.
Safety

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 CITROËN 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
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.General points relating to
child seats
The regulations on carrying children are
specific to each country. Refer to the
legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please obser ve the
following recommendations:
-

I

all children under the age of 12
or less
than one and a
half metres tall must
travel in approved child seats suited to
their weight , on seats fitted with a
seat belt
or ISOFIX mountings.
-

S
tatistically, the safest seats in your
vehicle for carr ying children are the rear
seats.
-

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 support leg is in firm and steady
contact with the floor.
At 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 rear
" Rearward facing"
