53 Safety

*
According to model.
The driver must ensure that thepassengers use the seat belts correctly and that they are all properly restrainedbefore setting off. Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,always fasten your seat belt, even for shor t journeys. Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they will not fulfil their role fully. If the seats have armrests * , the lap par tof the seat belt must always pass under the armrest.The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel permitting automatic adjustment of the length of the strap to your size. The seat belt is stored automatically when notin use.Before and after use, ensure that theseat belt is reeled in correctly.The lower part of the strap must be positioned as low as possible on the pelvis. The upper par t must be positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fitted with an automaticlocking device which comes into operation in the event of a collision, 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 asmooth movement, checking that it doesnot twist, - must not be transformed or modified to avoid altering its performance.In accordance with current safety regulations, all repairs and checks must be carried out bya CITROËN dealer who can guarantee thatthe work is carried out correctly, or qualifiedworkshop. Have your seat belts checked regularly by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop and particularly if the 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 isless than 12 years old or shor ter than one metre fifty,

- do not use the strap-guide *
when a child seat is installed.

- never use the same seat belt to securemore than one person,

- never allow a child to travel on your lap.Depending on the nature and seriousnessof the impacts, the pre-tensioning device may be triggered before and independently of theair bags. Triggering of the pre-tensioners is accompanied by a slight emission of harmless smoke and a noise, due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat beltssystem checked, and if necessary replaced, by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifiedworkshop.
