When a person, an object or a child
seat prevents the front seats from lock-
ing, perform the following operations:
– ask all of the passengers to leave
the vehicle and remove any bulky
objects from the rear seats;
– lock the seat(s) in the initial position
again;
– move the seat(s) forwards in order to
create sufficient space;
– ask the passengers to get back into
the vehicle, and refit the child seat or
objects on the rear seats.

Do not move handle 1 and handle 6
at the same time.
Check that no object or
person prevents the front
seat from locking. If so,
r e m o v e a n y o b s t a c l e s
behind the front seats. Adjust the
seat to allow sufficient room in the
rear. The rear occupants/objects
should then return to the vehicle.
Repeat the above until the seat is
locked correctly.
Risk of seat moving on its runners
during vehicle acceleration or brak-
ing.

Always wear your seat belt when trav-
elling in your vehicle. You must also
comply with the legislation of the par -
ticular country you are in.
Seat belts
SEAT BELTS (1/4)

I n c o r r e c t l y a d j u s t e d o r
twisted seat belts may
cause injuries in the event
of an accident.
Use one seat belt per person,
whether child or adult.
Even pregnant women should wear
a seat belt. In this case, ensure that
the lap belt is not exerting too much
pressure on the abdomen, but do
not allow any slack.
Before starting, first adjust your driv-
ing position, then ask all occupants
to adjust their seat belts to ensure
optimum protection.
Adjusting your driving
position
– Sit well back in your seat (having
first removed your coat or jacket).
This is essential to ensure your back
is positioned correctly;
– adjust the distance between the
seat and the pedals. Your seat
should be as far back as possible
while still allowing you to depress
the clutch pedal fully. The seatback
should be adjusted so that your arms
are slightly bent when you hold the
steering wheel;
– adjust the position of your head -
rest. For the maximum safety, your
head must be as close as possible to
the headrest;
– adjust the height of the seat. This
adjustment allows you to select the
seat position which offers you the
best possible view ;
– adjust the position of the steering
wheel.
Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the
seatback.
Shoulder strap 1 should be as close as
possible to the base of the neck but not
on it.
Lap belt 2 should be worn flat over the
thighs and against the pelvis.
The belt should be worn so that it is
as close as possible to your body, i.e.:
avoid wearing heavy clothing or keep -
ing bulky objects under the belts, etc.
Make sure that the rear bench seat
is locked in position correctly so that
the rear seat belts will operate effi -
ciently. Refer to the information on
the “Rear bench seat: functions” in
Section 3.

SEAT BELTS (4/4)
– No modification may be made to the component parts of the originally fitted restraint system: belts, seats and their
mountings. For special operations (e.g. fitting child seats) contact a\
n authorised dealer.
– Do not use devices which allow any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too
loosely may cause injury in the event of an accident.
– Never wear the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back.
– Never use the same belt for more than one person and never hold a baby or child on your lap with your seat belt around
them.
– The belt should never be twisted.
– Following an accident, have the seat belts checked and replaced if necessary. Always replace your seat belts as soon as
they show any signs of wear.
– When putting back the rear bench seat, make sure the seat belts are correctly positioned so that they can be used properly.
– Make sure that the buckle is inserted into the appropriate catch.
– Ensure that no objects are placed in the area around the seat belt catch as they could prevent it from being properly se-
cured.
– Make sure the seat belt catch is properly positioned (it should not be hidden away, crushed or flattened by people or ob-
jects).
The following information applies to the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts.

– Have the entire restraint
system checked following
an accident.
– No operation whatso -
ever is permitted on any part of
the system (pretensioners, air
bags, computers, wiring) and the
system components must not
be reused on any other vehicle,
even if identical.
– To avoid incorrect triggering of
the system which may cause
injury, only qualified personnel
from an approved Dealer may
work on the pretensioner and air
bag system.
– The electric trigger system may
only be tested by a specially
trained technician using special
equipment.
– When the vehicle is scrapped,
contact an approved Dealer for
disposal of the pretensioner and
air bag gas generators.Depending on the vehicle, they are
composed of:
– seat belt inertia reel pretension -
ers;
– lap belt pretensioners;
– chest-level load limiters;
– anti-submarining air bags;
– air bags for driver and front pas -
senger.
These systems are designed to act in-
dependently or together when the vehi-
cle is subjected to a frontal impact.
Depending on the severity of the
impact, the system can trigger:
– seat belt locking;
– the seat belt inertia reel pretensioner
(which engages to correct seat belt
slack);
– the front air bag;
– the lap seat belt pretensioners to
hold the occupant in his seat.
Pretensioners
The pretensioners hold the seat belt
against the body, holding the occupant
more securely against the seat, thus in-
creasing the seat belt’s efficiency.
In the event of a severe frontal impact
and if the ignition is switched on, the
system may engage the following de -
pending on the force of the impact:
– seat belt inertia reel pretensioner 1
which instantly retracts the seat belt;
– lap belt pretensioner 2 on the front
seats or anti-submarining air bag 3.

Chest-level and lap belt load
limiters
Above a certain severity of impact, this
mechanism is used to limit the force of
the belt against the body so that it is at
an acceptable level.
Anti-submarining air bag
Located on each of the front seats, it
deploys in order to prevent the occu -
pant from sliding under the seat belt.
Air bag for driver and front
passenger
Fitted to the driver and passenger side.
The presence of this equipment is in -
dicated by the word “Air bag” on the
steering wheel and dashboard (air bag
zone A) and, depending on the vehicle,
a symbol on the lower section of the
windscreen.
Each air bag system consists of:
– an air bag and gas generator fitted
on the steering wheel for the driver
and in the dashboard for the front
passenger;
– an electronic unit for system monitor-
ing which controls the gas generator
electrical trigger system;
– a single
å warning light on the
instrument panel.
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/4)
A
The air bag system uses
pyrotechnic principles. This
explains why, when the air
bag inflates, it will gener -
ate heat, produce smoke (this does
not mean that a fire is about to start)
and make a noise upon detonation.
In a situation where an air bag is
required, it will inflate immediately
and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other
problems.

Side Airbags
This airbag may be fitted to each of the
front seats and is activated at the sides
of the seats (door side) to protect the
occupants in the event of a severe side
impact.
Curtain Airbags
This airbag may be fitted along the top
of each side of the vehicle and is trig -
gered along the front and rear side win-
dows to protect the passengers in the
event of a severe side impact.

SIDE PROTECTION DEVICES
Warning relating to the side airbag
– Fitting seat covers: seats equipped with an airbag require covers spe-
cifically designed for your vehicle. Contact an approved Dealer to find out
if these covers are available. The use of any covers other than those de-
signed for your vehicle (and including those designed for another vehicle) may
affect the operation of the airbags and reduce your protection.
– Do not place any accessories, objects or even pets between the seatback, the
door and the internal fittings. Do not cover the seatback with any items such as
clothes or accessories. This may prevent the air bag from operating correctly
or cause injury when the airbag is deployed.
– No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on the seat or internal
fittings, except by qualified personnel from an approved Dealer.
– This airbag operates through slits in the front seatbacks (door side): never
insert any objects in these slits.
Depending on the vehicle, a mark -
ing on the windscreen informs you
of the presence of additional means
of restraint (air bags, pretensioners,
etc.) in the passenger compartment.
