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
instantly 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 abdominal part of the strap
should be positioned as low
down as possible in the lap and
as tight as possible.

 The chest part should be posi-
tioned if possible in the channel
of the shoulder.
Each belt has a reel that adjusts its
length automatically to the girth of
the seat occupant.
The pretensioning seat belts are
active 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 light comes
on, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
on the multifunction display,
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 the
CITROËN assembly and operation
procedures.
After an impact, have these sys-
tems checked by a CITROËN
dealer.

Operation
You have identifi ed a parking
space:


Press button A to select the function.

 Activate the direction indicator
on the side where the space is to
be measured.

 During the measuring, go for-
ward the length of the space, at
a speed less than 12 mph (ap-
prox. 20 km/h), to prepare for
your manoeuvre.
The system then measures the size
of the space.

 The system informs you of the
level of diffi culty of the manoeu-
vre via a message on the instru-
ment panel display accompanied
by a gong.

 Depending on the message is-
sued by the system, you may or
may not be able to perform the
manoeuvre. The function displays the following
types of message:

Parking YES

Parking diffi cult

Parking NO The function deselects itself auto-
matically:
- when you engage reverse gear,
- when you switch off the ignition,
- if measuring is not requested,
- within fi ve minutes of selection of
the function,
- if the vehicle speed exceeds the threshold of 45 mph (approx.
70 km/h) for one minute.
If the lateral distance between your
vehicle and the parking space is too
large, the system may not be able
the measure the space.
The function remains available after
each measurement and thus can
measure more than one space dur-
ing your search.
In bad weather conditions or in
winter, make sure that the sensors
are not covered by dirt, or by ice or
snow.
The parking space sensor function
deactivates the front parking assist-
ance during the space measuring
phase when you are in forward gear.
