SEAT BELTS
To adjust the height of the front seat belts To lower the attachment point, squeeze control 1and slide it
downwards.
To raise the attachment point,squeeze control 1and slide it
upwards.
To lock the seat belts Pull the strap, then insert the buckle into the stalk. Pre-tensioning and force- limiting front seat belts Safety in the event of a frontal impact has been improved by the introduc-tion of pre-tensioning and force-limi-ting front seat belts. Depending onthe seriousness of the impact, thepre-tensioning system instantly tigh-tens the seat belt firmly against thebody of the occupant. The pre-tensioning seat belts are armed when the ignition is on. The force-limiting device reduces the pressure of the seat belt against thebody of the occupant in the event ofan accident. Rear seat belts The rear seats are all fitted with
three-point inertia reel belts. Theside seats are fitted with force-limi-ting devices.

To be effective, a seat belt must be tightened asclose to the body as pos-sible.
Depending on the nature and theseriousness of the impact, thepre-tensioners may be triggeredbefore and independently of theair bags. In all cases of an airbag being triggered, the air bag warning lighton the instrument panel comeson. After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. The system has been designed to be fully operational for ten years. Have it replaced after this period.

AIR BAGS The air bags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occupantsin the event of serious collisions;they work in conjunction with theforce-limiting seat belts. In the event of a serious collision, the electronic detectors record and ana-lyse any abrupt deceleration of thevehicle: if the triggering threshold isreached, the air bags inflate instantlyand protect the occupants of thevehicle. Immediately after the impact, the air
bags deflate rapidly, so that they donot hinder the visibility nor the pos-sible exit of the occupants from thevehicle. The air bags will not be deployed in collisions which are not serious, for
which the seat belt is sufficient to
provide maximum protection. Theseriousness of the collision dependson the nature of the obstacle and thespeed of the vehicle at the momentof impact. Air bags operate only when the ignition is switched on. Note:
the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant. FRONT AIR BAGS These are folded in the centre of the steering wheel for the driver and in
the fascia for the front passenger.
They are deployed simultaneously,except in cases where the air bag isdisarmed. Front air bag malfunction
