SEAT BELTS
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fi tted with a
pretensioning system and force limiter.
This system improves safety in the front
seats in the event of a front impact.
Depending on the seriousness of the
impact, the pretensioning system in-
stantly tightens the seat belt against
the body of the occupant. Fastening

 Pull the belt down in front of you
in a steady movement, making
sure that it does not become
twisted.

 Press the fastening into its buckle.

 Check that it is properly secured
and that the automatic locking
mechanism operates correctly
by pulling sharply on the belt
strap.

 The lap strap should be posi-
tioned as low down as possible in
the lap and as tight as possible.

 The diagonal strap should be
positioned across the chest and
away from the neck.
Each belt has a reel that adjusts its
length automatically to the girth of
the seat occupant.
The pretensioning seat belts are ac-
tive when the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pres-
sure of the seat belt against the
chest of the occupant, so increasing
his protection.
Reactivation
These systems are reactivated au-
tomatically each time the ignition is
switched back on or from 30 mph
(50 km/h).


Press the "ESP OFF" button again
to reactivate them manually.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
on the instrument panel
screen, this indicates a malfunction
of these systems.
Have the systems checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
The ESP/ASR systems offer ex-
ceptional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation
of the manufacturer's recommen-
dations regarding the wheels (tyres
and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and ob-
servation of the assembly and re-
pair procedures used by CITROËN
dealers.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a CITROËN dealer.
