Airbags
87
SAFETY
4
Front airbags
The front airbags are incorporated in
the centre of the steering wheel for the
driver and in the fascia for the front
passenger(s).
Activation
They are deployed simultaneously,
unless the passenger's front airbag
has been disarmed, in the event of a
serious front impact applied to all or
part of the front impact zone A in the
longitudinal centreline of the vehicle
on a horizontal plane directed from the
front towards the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag infl ates between
the front occupant of the vehicle and
the fascia to cushion his forward
movement. Disarming
The passenger's front airbag alone can
be disarmed:
-
With the ignition switched off ,
insert the key into the passenger
airbag disarming switch,
- turn it to the "OFF" position,
- then remove the key keeping the slot in this position.
The airbag warning light on the
instrument panel is lit throughout
the period of disarming.
If the two airbag warning lights
are lit continuously, do not install
a rear-facing child seat. Consult a
CITROËN dealer.
Front airbag fault
To ensure the safety of your
child, it is essential to disarm the
passenger airbag when you install
a rear-facing child seat on the front
passenger seat. Otherwise, the child
would risk being killed or seriously
injured if the airbag were to infl ate. Reactivation
In the
"OFF" position, the passenger
airbag will not be triggered in the event
of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
turn the airbag slot to the "ON"
position to re-activate the airbag
and thus ensure the safety of your
passenger in the event of an impact.
If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
display, consult a CITROËN
dealer to have the system
checked.
