SAFETY
When this warning lamp
comes on, it indicates that
there is a fault with the ABS,
which could cause a loss of
control of the vehicle when
braking.

When these warn-
ing lamps come on
simultaneously, it
indicates that there
is a fault with the braking system or
that the parking brake has not been
released fully, which can cause a
loss of control of the vehicle when
braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.

Normal operation of the ABS
may make itself felt by slight
vibrations of the brake pedal.

Operation of the ASR and ESP
systems
When one of these two sys-
tems is operating, this warning
lamp comes on.
If a fault occurs with the
systems, this warning lamp
comes on. The ASR/ESP systems offer
exceptional safety during nor-
mal driving, but this should not encourage the driver to take
extra risks or drive at high speed.
Correct operation of these systems
depends on observation of the manu-
facturer's recommendations regarding
the wheels (tyres and rims), the brak-
ing components and the electronic
components as well as the repair pro-
cedures use by a CITROËN dealer or

These systems are linked and sup-
plement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to
prevent the wheels skidding, by act-
ing on the brakes of the driving wheels and on the engine. It also allows the
directional stability of the vehicle to
be improved on acceleration.
If there is a variation between the tra-
jectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESP
system automatically acts on the
brake of one or more wheels and on
the engine to put the vehicle back on
course, within the limits of the laws
of physics.

SAFETY
The driver must ensure that
the passengers use the seat
belts correctly and that they
are all properly restrained
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as
t h e y w i l l n o t f u l fi l t h e i r r o l e f u l l y .
If the seats have armrests * , the lap
part of the seat belt must always
pass under the armrest.
T h e s e a t b e l t s a r e fi t t e d w i t h a n i n -
ertia reel permitting automatic adjust-ment of the length of the strap to your
size. The seat belt is stored automat-
ically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in
the hollow of the shoulder.
T h e i n e r t i a r e e l s a r e fi t t e d w i t h a n a u -
tomatic locking device which comes
into operation in the event of a colli-
sion, on emergency braking or if the
vehicle rolls over. You can release
the device by pulling rapidly on the
strap and releasing it. In order to be effective, a seat belt:
- must be tightened as close to the
body as possible,
- must restrain one adult only,
- must not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- must be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking
that it does not twist,
- must not be transformed or m o d i fi e d t o a v o i d a l t e r i n g i t s
performance.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, all repairs and checks
must be carried out by a CITROËN
dealer who can guarantee that the
work is carried out correctly, or quali-
fi e d w o r k s h o p .
Have your seat belts checked regu-
larly by a CITROËN dealer or a quali-
fi e d w o r k s h o p a n d p a r t i c u l a r l y i f t h e
straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by CITROËN dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and rolled up correctly. Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years
old or shorter than one metre
fi f t y ,
- do not use the strap-guide * when a child seat is installed.
- never use the same seat belt to secure more than one person,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap.
Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impacts , the pre-
tensioning device may be triggered
before and independently of the air
bags. Triggering of the pre-tension-
ers is accompanied by a slight emis-
sion of harmless smoke and a noise,
due to the activation of the pyrotech-
nic cartridge incorporated in the sys-
tem.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a CITROËN dealer

SAFETY
Deactivating the passenger
airbag
To ensure the safety of your child,
it is essential to deactivate the
passenger airbag when you install a "rear-facing" child seat on the
front passenger seat. Otherwise,
the child would risk being seri-
ously injured or killed if the air bag
w e r e t o i n fl a t e .
With the ignition switched off ,
insert the key into the passenger
airbag deactivation switch 1 ,
turn it to the "OFF" position,
then remove the key keeping the
switch in this position.
In the "OFF" position, the passen-
ger airbag will not be deployed in the
event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
turn the airbag switch to the "ON"
position to re-activate the airbag and
thus ensure the safety of your pas-
senger in the event of an impact. If the passenger airbag is de-
activated, the warning lamp
in the instrument panel re-
mains on until the passenger
airbag is reactivated.
Flashing indicates a fault
with at least one of these
airbags.
Contact a CITROËN deal-
e r o r a q u a l i fi e d w o r k s h o p
to have the system checked. The
airbags may no longer be deployed
in the event of a serious impact.
Deactivation (check)
Airbag fault
* According to version.
LATERAL AIRBAGS * AND CURTAIN AIRBAGS *
The lateral airbags are built into the
front seat backs on the door side.
The deployment of these airbags re-
quires a serious side impact applied
in the side impact zone B , perpen-
dicular to the longitudinal centreline
of the vehicle, on a horizontal plane
and from the outside of the vehicle
towards the inside. The lateral airbag
i n fl a t e s b e t w e e n t h e f r o n t o c c u p a n t
of the vehicle and the door trim panel.
It therefore limits the risk of injury to
the chest.
The rear lateral airbags afford the
rear passengers the same protection
which the front lateral airbags offer
the front passengers.
The curtain airbags are built into the
headlining. T h e c u r t a i n a i r b a g i n fl a t e s b e t w e e n
the front or rear occupant and the
windows. It therefore limits the risk
of head injuries. In the event of a
minor impact or bump on the side of
the vehicle or if the vehicle rolls over,
the airbag may not be deployed. The
airbag is not deployed in the event of
a front or rear collision.

accompanied by an audible signal. Operating fault
Stopping the engine
Before switching off the engine, you
can change to position N to be in
neutral.

the vehicle. With the ignition on, illumi-
nation of this warning lamp
indicates a gearbox fault.
On a slope, use the brake to
immobilise the vehicle and
place the gear lever in posi-
tion N , E or R .
Do not keep the vehicle immobilised
using the accelerator. Always press the brake pedal
while starting the engine.
Never select neutral
