compartment closed. Otherwise, there is 
a risk of injury in the event of an accident or 
sudden braking.
Lateral airbags 
 
This system protects the driver and front 
passenger in the event of a serious side impact, 
limiting the risk of injury to the chest, between 
the hip and the shoulder.
Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest 
frame, on the 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    

109
Safety
5Make 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.
An incorrectly installed child seat in a  vehicle 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 
child seat harness 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 vehicle seat. 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.
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be 
positioned on the child's shoulder without 
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt 
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
Use a booster seat with a backrest, equipped 
with a belt guide at shoulder level.
Additional protections
To prevent accidental opening of the 
doors and rear windows, use the "Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows by 
more than one third.
To protect young children from the sun's rays, 
fit side blinds on the rear windows.
As a safety measure, do not leave:
–
 
A
 child alone and unsupervised inside a 
vehicle.
–
 
A
 child or an animal in a vehicle which is 
exposed to the sun, with the windows closed.
–
 
The keys within reach of children inside the 
vehicle.
Child seat at the rear
Row 2 
 
Forward-facing or rearward-facing
 
 
 
 
► Move the vehicle's front seat forward and 
straighten the backrest so that the legs of the 
child in the forward-facing or rearward-facing 
child seat itself do not touch the vehicle's front 
seat.
►
 
Check that the backrest of the forward-facing 
child seat is as close as possible to the backrest 
of the vehicle's rear seat, and ideally in contact 
with it.
►
 
Adjust the rear seat to the fully back 
longitudinal position, with the backrest 
straightened.
Ensure that the seat belt is correctly 
tensioned.
For child seats with a support leg, ensure 
that the support leg is in firm and steady 
contact with the floor. If necessary, adjust the 
vehicle's front seat.
