AIRBAGS
General information
The airbags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
in the event of a serious collision;
they
work in conjunction with the force
limiting
seat belts. In the event of a serious collision, the
electronic detectors record and analyse
the
front and side impacts suffered in the
impact detection zones:
-
in
the event of a serious impact,
the
airbags inflate instantly and
contribute towards better protecting
the occupants of the vehicle;
immediately
after the impact, the
airbags
deflate rapidly, so that they
do not hinder the visibility of the
occupants nor their possible exit
from
the vehicle.-
in
the event of a minor or rear impact
and in certain roll-over conditions, the airbags will not be
deployed; the seat belt alone is
sufficient
to contribute towards your
protection
in these situations.
The seriousness of the collision
depends on the nature of the obstacle
and the speed of the vehicle at the
moment
of impact.

Curtain airbags
This is a system which protects the driver and passengers (with the
exception of the centre seat of row 2)
in the event of a serious side impact in
order
to limit the risk of head injuries.
Each curtain airbag is incorporated in
the pillars and the upper part of the
passenger
compartment.
Activation
It
is triggered at the same time as the
corresponding lateral airbag in the
event
of a serious side impact applied
to
all or part of the side impact zone B,
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
front or rear occupant of the vehicle
and
the windows.
Lateral airbags
This is a system which 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.
Each
lateral airbag is fitted in the front
seat
backrest frame, on the door side.
Deployment
It is deployed unilaterally in the event
of
a serious side impact applied to
all
or part of the side impact zone B,
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 of the vehicle and the
corresponding
door trim panel.Impact detection zones

the
front passenger seat. Otherwise,
the
child would risk being killed or
seriously
injured if the airbag were
deployed.Reactivation

to the
"ON" position to reactivate the
airbag and thus ensure the safety
of your passenger in the event of an
impact.

audible
signal and a message
in the screen, consult a
CITR
o Ë n dealer or a

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 a marking.
a rear ring
B, located on the back
of
the vehicle's seat backrest, for
securing the upper strap referred to as
the
T
op
T
ether.
The Top Tether is used to secure the
upper strap of child seats that have
one.
This
arrangement limits the
forward tipping of the child seat in the
event
of a frontal impact.
This ISOFIX mounting system
guarantees you fast, reliable and safe
fitting
of the child seat in your vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with
two latches which are secured on the
two front rings
A.
Some also have an upper strap which is attached to the rear ring
B.Follow strictly the instructions for
fitting
child seats contained in the
manufacturer's
installation guide.
To secure the child seat to the
Top Tether:

this seating position (refit it once
the
child seat has been removed),
-
pass the upper strap of the child
seat over the top of the seat
backrest,
between the apertures for
the head restraint rods,
-
secure
the hook on the upper strap
to the rear ring,
-
tighten
the upper strap.
The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
protection of the child in the event
of
an accident.
