The connection of an electrical device
not approved by PEUGEOT, such as a
USB charger, may adversely affect the
operation of vehicle electrical systems,
causing faults such as poor radio
reception or inter ference with displays in
the screens.
It is advisable to limit its use to avoid
discharging the battery.
Stowing rings
As a safety precaution in case of sharp
braking, you are advised to secure the
load by attaching it firmly using the
stowing rings and to place heavy objects
as far for wards towards the cab as
possible.
Use the stowing rings on the rear floor to
secure your loads.
Tr i m
Load stops
Your vehicle can have a wide range of load
stops to effectively protect the driver and
front passenger(s) while maintaining loading
modularity.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer for the
different models of load restraint
accessories.
The interior parts of the sides are fitted with
load protection trims.
Ease of use and comfort
84
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 a device for automatic
locking in the event of a collision, 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.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. 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 person.
Never allow a child to travel on your lap.
For more information on Child seats , refer to
the corresponding section.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and seriousness
of the impact , the pyrotechnic device 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 belts
system checked and, if necessary, replaced,
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Safety
88
Advice
For the airbags to be fully effective,
observe the safety recommendations
below.
Adopt a normal and upright sitting position.
Fasten your seat belt, ensuring it is positioned
c o r r e c t l y.
Do not leave anything between the occupants
and the airbags (a child, pet, object, etc.), nor
fix or attach anything close to the inflation
trajectory of the airbags; this could cause
injuries if they are deployed.
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 or broken into, 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
bag 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 fit or attach anything to the steering
wheel or dashboard, this could cause injuries
if the airbags are deployed.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backrests (clothes, etc.) as this could cause
injuries to the chest or arm if the lateral airbag
is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary. Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof, as
this could cause head injuries if the curtain
airbag is deployed.
If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove the
grab handles installed on the roof, they play a
part in securing the curtain airbags.

Recommended child
seats
Approved range of recommended child seats
which are secured using a three-point seat
belt.
Seats with a support leg
Care must be taken when installing a child seat
with a support leg in the vehicle. In particular,
you must check for the presence of a storage
compartment below the rear seat footwells.
The centre rear seat does not have a storage
compartment below the footwell. You can
therefore more easily install a child seat with
a support leg there, whether installed with
ISOFIX mountings or the three-point seat belt. Do not place the suppor t leg on the
storage compartment cover
, as it could
break during a violent impact. Where the
adjustments of the support leg allow it, we
suggest two other installation options.
At the bottom of the storage compartment

The child is restrained by the seat belt.
Safety
95
Away from the storage
compartment area
If the support leg is long enough, you can
adjust it so that it is in contact with the bottom
of the storage compartment. Remove all
objects from the compartment before installing
the support leg.
If the support leg is long enough and can be
angled sufficiently (always respecting the
recommendations given in the child seat
installation instructions), you can position
the support leg in such a way that it is in
contact with the floor away from the storage
compartment area. Consider using the
longitudinal adjustment of the rear seat or
front seat to obtain a satisfactory position
for the support leg away from the storage
compartment area.If you cannot position the support leg as
described above, you must not fit a child
seat with a support leg on this seat.

ISOFIX mountings
Your vehicle has been approved in accordance with
the latest ISOFIX regulation.
The mountings comprise three rings for each seat:
- Two front rings A, located between the
vehicle seat backrest and cushion, indicated
by an "ISOFIX" marking,
-
A r
ear ring B , on the back of the vehicle
seat backrest, for attaching the upper strap
called the Top Tether.
The Top Tether secures the upper strap of child
seats that have them. In case of frontal impact,
this device limits the tilting of the child seat
forward.
This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in your
vehicle.
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.
(d)
When a "rear ward facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat ,
the passenger's front airbag must be
deactivated without fail. Otherwise, the
child risks being seriously injured or
killed if the airbag were to inflate .
When a "for ward facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat ,
the passenger's front airbag must remain
active.
(e)
When installing a child seat at the rear,
in either a for ward or rear ward facing
position, move the seats in front for wards,
then straighten their backrests to allow
enough space for the child seat and for
the child's legs.
(e)
The "RÖMER Baby-Safe Plus" child seat
cannot be installed on this seat. (f )
Place the backrests of the outer seats
and the central seat of row 2, located in
front of the seat occupied by the child
seat, in the table position, or if this is not
sufficient, remove these row 2 seats so
that the child seat or the child's legs do
not touch the row 2 seats.
(g) If the seats in row 3 are occupied, do not
leave a child seat installed on the foldable
row 2 seat, to ensure ease of access to
row 3.
Safety
99
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two
latches which are secured on the two front
rings A.
