FRONT AND REAR SIDE SEAT
BELTS
The front seats and the rear side seats
of row 2 are fi tted with pre-tensioners
and force limiters. The lap strap must be positioned as
low as possible on the pelvis. The
chest strap must pass over the hollow
of the shoulder.
Check that the seat belt is fastened
correctly by pulling the strap. The force-limiting device reduces the
pressure of the seat belt against the
chest of the occupant, so increasing
his protection.
A bag placed on the front
passenger seat or a pet sitting on
this seat may trigger the lighting of
this warning light.
SEAT BELTS
Front seat belt warning light
If the driver and/or front
passenger has/have not
fastened his/their seat belt,
this warning light comes on.
Then, at a speed in excess of
approximately 15 mph (25 km/h), it
fl ashes accompanied by an audible
signal of increasing volume (for
approximately 90 seconds) and a
message on the display.
Row 2 rear side seat belts
For your comfort, if you are not using
the seat belt, slide the seat belt loop to
the upper stop to prevent the tongue
from vibrating.
To adjust the height
- To lower the attachment point,
squeeze control and slide it
downwards.
- To raise the attachment point, slide control upwards.
To fasten
- Pull the strap, then insert the buckle into the stalk.
- Check that the seat belt is secured correctly by pulling the strap. Inertia reel seat belts
These are fi tted with a device which
locks the seat belt automatically in
the event of an impact or emergency
braking.
Safety in the event of a frontal impact
has been improved by the introduction
of pre-tensioning and force-limiting
seat belts. Depending on the
seriousness of the impact, the pre-
tensioning system instantly tightens the
seat belts fi rmly against the body of the
occupant.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are
armed when the ignition is on.
Row 3 rear side seat belts
The row 3 rear side seats are fi tted
with two seat belts which are both
three-point inertia reel belts with force
limiter.

174
Seat belts Triggering of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
The force limiter reduces the pressure
of the seat belt against the body of the
occupants. The equipment fi tted to
these seat belts is operational when
the ignition is switched on.
The inertia reels are fi tted with a device
which automatically locks the strap in
the event of a collision or emergency
braking. You can release the seat belt
and allow the strap to roll up. Do not invert the seat belt buckles as
they will not fulfi l their role completely.
If the seats are fi tted with armrests, the
lap part of the seat belt should always
pass under the armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened
correctly by pulling the strap fi rmly.
Good practice
Wherever you are seated in the
vehicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
The seat belts are fi tted with an inertia
reel which automatically adjusts the
length of the strap to your size. The
seat belt is rolled up automatically
when not in use.
Ensure that the seat belt is rolled up
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a rear seat or
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is
rolled up correctly in its compartment
and that the buckle is ready to
accommodate the tongue.
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of any impact, the
pretensioning device may be triggered
before and independently of infl ation
of the air bags. It instantly tightens
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
To install the seat belt, move the
tongue into position to insert it into the
buckle.
Row 2 and 3 rear centre seat
belts
The row 2 rear centre seat and the
rear bench seat centre seat have an
integrated three-point inertia reel seat
belt.
The air bag warning light comes on
if the pretensioners are triggered.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
In order to be effective, a seat belt
must:
- restrain one person only,
- must not be twisted, check by pulling in front of you with an even
movement,
- be tightened as close to the body as possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should
be positioned in the hollow of the
shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low
as possible on the pelvis. Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years old
or shorter than one metre fi fty,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap, even with the seat belt
fastened.
For further information regarding child
seats, refer to the "Children on board"
section of chapter 5.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, your PEUGEOT dealer
guarantees all work or any checks,
from testing to maintenance, on your
seat belt equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly
(even after a minor impact) by a
PEUGEOT dealer : they must not show
any signs of wear, cutting or fraying
and they must not be transformed or
modifi ed.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by PEUGEOT dealers .

SAFETY
175
Airbags
5
The air bags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
(with the exception of the centre
seats of rows 2 and 3) 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 air bags infl ate instantly and
protect the occupants of the
vehicle.
Immediately after the impact, the air
bags defl ate 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 air bags will not
be deployed; the seat belt alone
is suffi cient to provide maximum
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. Air bags only operate when
the ignition is switched on.
This equipment only operates once.
If a second impact occurs (during the
same or a subsequent accident), the
air bag will not operate.
The triggering of an air bag or air bags
is accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but
sensitive individuals may experience
some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time.
AIR BAGS
It is imperative that the passenger
air bag is disarmed if a child seat
is installed facing rearwards. Refer
to the "Children on board" section of
chapter 5.

Airbags
Good practice
If your vehicle is fi tted with a front
passenger air bag, side air bags or
curtain air bags, observe this good
practice.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the air bags (a child,
pet, object...). This could hamper the
operation of the air bags or injure the
occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has
been stolen or broken into, have the air
bag systems checked.
All work on the air bag system is strictly
forbidden unless it is carried out by
qualifi ed personnel of the PEUGEOT
network . Front air bags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by its spokes or resting your hands on
the centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet
on the fascia.
Smoke as little as possible as
deployment of the air bags can cause
burns or the risk of injury from a
cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering
wheel or hit it violently.
Side air bags
Only put approved covers on the seats.
These will not hinder infl ation of the
side air bags.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fi x or glue anything to the seat
backs. This could cause injury to the
chest or arms when the side air bag
infl ates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the
body any nearer to the door than
necessary.
Curtain air bags
Do not fi x or glue anything to the roof.
This could cause injury to the head
when the curtain air bag infl ates.
Do not remove the grab handles
installed on the roof, they play a part in
securing the curtain air bags.
Even if all of the precautions
mentioned are observed, a risk of
injury or of minor burns to the head,
chest or arms when an air bag is
triggered cannot be ruled out. In fact,
the bag infl ates almost instantly (within
a few milliseconds) then defl ates within
the same time discharging the hot gas
via openings provided for this purpose.

CHILD SAFETY
GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS
Although one of PEUGEOT’s main
criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also
depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow
these precautions:
- in accordance with Directive 2003/20, all children under the age
of 12 or less than one metre fi fty tall
must travel in approved child seats
suited to their weight, on seats
fi tted with a seat belt or ISOFIX
mountings,
- statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for the transportation of
children are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the "rearwards-
facing" position both in the front
and in the rear. "Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, it
is essential that the passenger air bag
is disarmed. Otherwise, the child would
risk being seriously injured or killed if
the air bag were to infl ate.
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat,
leave the passenger air bag armed.
INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT USING A THREE POINT SEAT BELT
Intermediate longitudinal
position
If your vehicle is fi tted with a passenger
seat with longitudinal adjustment,
adjust it to the intermediate longitudinal
position, seat back upright.
PEUGEOT recommends that children
should travel in the rear seats of your
vehicle :
-
"rearwards-facing" up to the age of 2,
- "forwards-facing" over the age of 2.
The rules for transporting children are
specifi c to each country. Consult the
current legislation in your country.
Please consult the list of seats
approved in your country. The isofi x
mountings, the rear seats, the
passenger air bag and the disarming
of this air bag depend on the version
sold.
