5If 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.
Deployment
They are deployed on one side 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.
Curtain airbags (Row 2 & 3)
Active, Allure, Business VIP
If fitted to your vehicle, this is a system that
contributes towards greater protection for
passengers (with the exception of the centre
seats) 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.
Deployment
They are deployed on one side 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.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
The airbags may not be deployed in the event of
a serious impact.
In the event of a minor impact or bump at
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 are deployed.
Advice
For the airbags to be fully effective,
observe the safety recommendations
below.
Adopt a normal and upright sitting position.
Fasten your seat belt and position it correctly.
Do not place anything between the occupants
and the airbags (e.g.
child, animal, object), do
not fix or attach anything near or in the path of
the airbags, as this could cause injuries when
they are deployed.
Never modify the original definition of the
vehicle, particularly in the area directly around
the airbags.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are
observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns to
the head, chest or arms cannot be ruled out
when an airbag is deployed. 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.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen, have the airbag systems checked.
All work must be carried out only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
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.

Lateral airbags
Use only approved seat covers
compatible with the deployment of these
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backrests (e.g.
clothing) as this could cause
injuries to the chest or arm when the 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!
All work must be carried out only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the roof,
as this could cause head injuries when the
curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the grab handles installed on
the roof, as these help to secure the curtain
airbags.
Child seats
The legislation on carrying children is specific to each country. Refer to the
legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please observe the
following recommendations:
–
In accordance with European regulations, 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.
–
Statistically
, the safest seats in your
vehicle for carrying children are the rear
seats.
–
A
child weighing less than 9 kg must travel
in the "rearward facing" position both in the
front and in the rear.
It is recommended that children travel
on the rear seats of the vehicle:
–
"rearward facing" up to the age of 3,
–
"forward facing" over the age of 3.
Make sure that the seat belt is correctly
positioned and tightened.
For child seats with a support leg, ensure that
the support leg is in firm and steady contact
with the floor.
Advice
An incorrectly installed child seat compromises the child's safety in the
event of an accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat, as this could
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
harness of child seats, keeping the slack
relative to the child's body to a minimum,
even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat
belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened
correctly on the child seat and that it secures
the child seat firmly on the seat of the vehicle.
If the passenger seat is adjustable, move it
forwards if necessary.
Remove the head restraint before
installing a child seat with a backrest on a
passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from being
thrown around the vehicle in the event of
sharp braking. Refit the head restraint once
the child seat has been removed.

(c)Refer to the current legislation in the country
in which you are driving before placing a
child in this seat position.
(d) To install a "rearward facing" or "forward
facing" child seat on a rear seat, move the
seats in front of it forward, then straighten
their backrests to allow sufficient room for
the child seat and the child's legs.
(e) The seat can be installed centrally in the
vehicle; it then prevents the use of the outer
seats.
(f) When a "rearward facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, the
front passenger airbag must be deactivated.
Otherwise, the child risks being severely
injured or killed if the airbag is deployed.
"ISOFIX" mountings and
i-Size
Combi, Business, Active
Allure, Business VIP
The vehicle has been approved in accordance
with the latest ISOFIX and i-Size regulations. If fitted to the vehicle, approved ISOFIX and
i-Size fixings can be identified by the labels
attached to them.
There are three rings for each seat:
–
T
wo front rings A, located between the vehicle
seat backrest and cushion, indicated by an
"ISOFIX" or "i-Size" marking,
–
If fitted to your vehicle, a rear ring
B, called a
Top Tether, is located behind the vehicle's seat
and is used to secure the upper strap and is
indicated by a "Top Tether" marking.
The Top Tether secures the upper strap of child
seats fitted with them. In case of frontal impact,
this device limits the extent to which the child
seat can tilt forward.
This ISOFIX and i-Size mounting system
provides fast, reliable and safe fitting of a child
seat inside the vehicle.
ISOFIX and i-Size child seats are fitted with two
latches which are secured to the two front rings
A.
Some child seats also have an upper strap which
is attached to rear ring B.
To secure the child seat to the Top Tether:
–
remove and stow the head restraint before
installing a child seat on this seat (refit it once
the child seat has been removed),
–
pass the strap
of the child seat over the top
of the seat backrest, centring it between the
openings for the head restraint rods,
– attach the hook of the upper strap to rear ring
B
,
–
tighten the upper strap.
