securely  before   moving   off.
Wherever you are seated in the
vehicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even
  for   short   journeys.
The
  seat   belts   are   fitted   with   an   inertia  
reel

  which   automatically   adjusts   the  
length

  of   the   strap   to   your   size.
d

o not use accessories (clothes pegs,
clips,
  safety   pins,   etc.)   which   allow   the  
seat

  belt   straps   to   fit   loosely.
Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly
  after   use.

epending on the nature and
seriousness
  of   any   impact,   the  
pretensioning

  device   may   be   deployed  
before

  and   independently   of   inflation  
of

  the   airbags.   It   instantly   tightens  
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
Deployment

  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

Recommendations for children:
-
use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years old
or

  shorter   than   one   metre   fifty,
-

never allow a child to travel on
your lap, even with the seat belt
fastened. For

  more   information   on   child  
seats, refer to the "Child safety"
section

  of   chapter   5.

Have
  the   seat   belts   checked   regularly  
(even

  after   a   minor   impact)   by   a  
CITROËN

  dealer   or   a   qualified  
workshop:

  they   must   not   show   any  
signs of wear

, cutting or fraying
and
  they   must   not   be   converted   or  
modified.

AIRBAGS
General information
The airbags have been designed to
maximise  the   safety   of   the   occupants  
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

  airbags   inflate   instantly   and  
contribute towards better protecting
the occupants of the vehicle;
immediately

  after   the   impact,   the  
airbags

  deflate   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 airbags will not be
deployed; the seat belt alone is
sufficient
  to   contribute   towards   your  
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.

Advice
Sit  in   a   normal   upright   position.
Wear
  a   correctly   adjusted   seat   belt.
Do
 
not
 
allow
 
anything
 
to
 
come
 
between
 
the occupants and the airbags


(a
  child,   pet,   object...),   do   not   attach   or  
fix

  anything   near   to   the   airbags   or   their  
trajectories

  when   inflating   as   this   could  
cause

  injuries   when   the   airbags   are  
deployed.
Never

  modify   the   original   definition   of  
your vehicle, particularly in the area
directly

  around   the   airbags.
a

fter an accident or if the vehicle has
been
  stolen   or   broken   into,   have   the  
airbag

  systems   checked.
All
  work   on   the   airbag   system   must   be  
carried out by a CITR

o Ë n dealer or a
qualified
  workshop.
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   airbag   is  
deployed

  cannot   be   ruled   out.  
The
  bag  
inflates

  almost   instantly   (within   a   few  
millis

econds)   then   deflates   within   the  
same

  time   discharging   the   hot   gas   via  
openings

  provided   for   this   purpose.Front airbags
d

o 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   dashboard.
Do
  not   smoke   as   deployment   of   the  
airbags

  can   cause   burns   or   the   risk   of  
injury

  from   a   cigarette   or   pipe.
Never
  remove   or   pierce   the   steering  
wheel

  or   hit   it   violently.
Do
  not   fit   or   attach   anything   to   the  
steering wheel or dashboard, this could
cause

  injuries   with   deployment   of   the  
airbags.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the
seats,

  compatible   with   the   deployment  
the

  lateral   airbags.   For   information  
on the range of seat covers suitable
for your vehicle, you can contact a
CITROËN dealer

.
For
  more   information   on   accessories,  
refer to "

o ther accessories" in
section 6.
Do
  not   fix   or   attach   anything   to   the   seat  
backs

  (clothing...).  
This
  could   cause  
injury

  to   the   chest   or   arms   if   the   lateral  
airbag

  is   deployed.
d

o not sit with the upper part of the
body any nearer to the door than
necessary.
Airbags 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
 
airbag

 
will
 
not
 
operate.
The
 
deployment

 
of

 
an

 
airbag

 
or

 
airbags

 
is

 
accompanied
 
by
 
a
 
slight
 
discharge
 
of

 
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. The

 
passenger's
 
front
 
airbag
 
must
 
be deactivated if a child seat is
installed

children should travel in the rear
seats  of   your   vehicle:
-

rearward facing
up to the age of 3,
-

forward facing
  over   the   age   of   3.
Although
 
one
 
of
 
CITROËN's
 
main
 
criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also
depends

 
on
 
you.

safety,
 
please
 
observe
 
the

 
following
 
recommendations:
-

in accordance with European
regulations,

all children under the
age of 12 or less than one and
a half metres tall must travel in
approved child seats suited to
their weight,
 
on
 
seats
 
fitted
 
with
 
a
