METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)
All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent the risk of serious in- juries caused by items which may be dislodged when the air bag inflates.
warnings concerning the driver’s air bag
– Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.
– Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.
– Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to
the steering wheel boss.
– You must not remove the steering wheel (such work must only be performed by trained personnel from our Network).
– When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your arms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting your driving position” in
Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to inflate properly and be fully effective.
w arnings concerning the passenger airbag: location
2
– Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard in the proximity of the air bag housing.
– Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, um- brella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
– The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as there is a risk that serious injuries may occur. In general, all parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knees, hands, head etc.).
– You should reactivate the passenger air bag as soon as you remove the child seat to ensure the protection of the front passenger in the event of an \
impact.
IT IS PROHIBITED TO FIT A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS THE RESTRAINT SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT
PASSENGER SEAT BELT HA vE BEEN DEACTIvATED.
(Refer to the information on “Deactivating the front- passenger air bag” in Section 1).

CHILD SAFETY: Fitting a child seat (continued)
Child seat attached using the ISOFIX fitting
ü = Seat which allows an ISOFIX child seat to be attached.
 = The rear seats are fitted with an anchorage point which allows a for- ward-facing ISOFIX child seat with uni- versal approval to be attached. The anchorage points are located on each side of the tailgate.
The size of the ISOFIX child seat is in- dicated by a letter:
– A, B and B1: for forward-facing seats
in group 1 (9 to 18 kg);
– C: rear-facing seats in group 1 (9 to
18 kg);
– D and E: shell seat or rear-facing
seats in group 0 or 0+ (less than
13 kg);
– F and G: cots in group 0 (less than
10 kg).

Child seat attached using the belt
U = Seat which allows a seat with “universal” approval to be at- tached;
UD = Seat which allows a rear-facing seat with “universal” approval only to be attached with a seat belt.
Using a child safety system which is not approved for this vehicle will not correctly protect the baby or child. They risk serious or even fatal injury.

désactivation / activation de l’airbag passager avant
CHILD SAFETY : Deactivating/activating the front passenger airbag
The passenger air bag must be activated or deactivated with the ignition off.
If handled when the igni-
tion is on, the warning light å comes on.
Switch the ignition off then on again to reset the air bag in accordance with the lock.
To deactivate the passenger air bag
Switch off the ignition, push and turn
lock 1 to the OFF position.
The air bag is deactivated.
When the ignition has been switched back on, it is essential to check that
the warning light
2, ], is lit on the instrument panel.
This warning light remains lit to con- firm that you can fit a child seat, as the passenger air bag has been de- activated.
Deactivating the front
passenger air bag(depending on vehicle)
To fit a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat, you must deacti- vate the front passenger air bag if your vehicle is fitted with air bag deactiva- tion.
DANGER
Since front passenger air bag triggering and the po- sition of a rear-facing child seat are incompatible, it is not per- mitted to fit such a seat in this posi- tion unless the vehicle is fitted with an air bag deactivation device. The child may suffer very serious injuries if the air bag inflates.
The label (on the dashboard) and the markings (on the sun visor) remind you of these instructions.
