AIR BAGS

safety of the occupants (with the
e x c e p t i o n o f t h e r e a r c e n t r e p a s -
senger) in the event of violent col-
lisions. It supplements the action of
the force-limiting seat belts.
If a collision occurs, the electronic
detectors record and analyse the
front and side impacts sustained in
the impact detection zones:
- in the case of a serious impact, the air bags are triggered instant-
ly and protect the occupants of
t h e v e h i c l e ( w i t h t h e e x c e p t i o n
of the rear centre passenger);
immediately after the impact, the
a i r b a g s d e fl a t e r a p i d l y s o t h a t
they do not hinder visibility or the
e x i t o f t h e o c c u p a n t s ,
- in the case of a minor or rear impact or in certain roll-over con-
ditions, the air bags will not be
triggered; the seat belt alone is
s u f fi c i e n t t o p r o v i d e o p t i m u m
protection in these situations.
The air bags do not operate when
the ignition is switched off.
This equipment will only operate once.
If a second impact occurs (during the
same or a subsequent accident), the
air bag will not operate.
Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
Triggering of the air bag(s) is accom-
panied by a slight emission of harm-
less smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sen-
s i t i v e i n d i v i d u a l s m a y e x p e r i e n c e
slight irritation.
The noise of the detonation may
result in a slight loss of hearing for
a short time. Front airbags
System which protects the head and
chest of the driver and front passen-
ger in the event of a front impact.
The driver's airbag is incorporated in
the centre of the steering wheel; the
front passenger's airbag is incorpo-
rated in the fascia above the glove
b o x .
Operation
The air bags are triggered simul-
taneously, unless the passenger's
front air bag is deactivated, in the
event of a serious front impact to all
or part of the front impact zone
A ,
in the longitudinal centreline of the
vehicle on a horizontal plane and
directed from the front to the rear of
the vehicle.
T h e f r o n t a i r b a g i n fl a t e s b e t w e e n
the front occupant of the vehicle and
the fascia to cushion their forward
movement.

Deactivation
This warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel
when the ignition is on and
until the air bag is re-armed.
To guarantee the safety of your
child, it is imperative that the pas-
senger air bag is deactivated when
you install a "rearwards-facing" child
seat on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk
b e i n g s e r i o u s l y i n j u r e d o r k i l l e d i f
the air bag were triggered. Reactivation
When you remove the child seat,
turn switch
1 to the "ON" position to
reactivate the airbag and so guaran-
tee the safety of your front passen-
ger in the event of an impact.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible
warning and a message on
the multifunction screen, contact a
CITROËN dealer to have the sys-
tem checked. The air bags may no
longer be triggered in the event of a
serious impact.
I f t h i s w a r n i n g l a m p fl a s h e s ,
contact a CITROËN dealer.
If both airbag warning lamps come
on continuously, do not install a
"rearwards-facing" child seat on
the front passenger seat.
Have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer.
Only the front passenger's air bag
can be deactivated:
with the ignition off , insert the
key in the passenger air bag
deactivation switch 1 ,
turn it to the "OFF" position,
then, remove the key keeping
the switch in this position.

Side airbags *
System which protects the driver
and front passenger in the event of
a serious side impact in order to limit

Each side airbag is incorporated in
the front seat back frame, on the
door side.
Operation
It is triggered unilaterally in the
event of a serious side impact
applied to all or part of the side
impact zone
B , perpendicular to the
longitudinal centreline of the vehicle
on a horizontal plane and directed
from the outside towards the inside
of the vehicle.

Each curtain airbag is incorporated
in the pillars and the upper part of
the passenger compartment. Operation
It is triggered at the same time as
the corresponding side airbag in
the event of a serious side impact
applied to all or part of the side
impact zone
B , perpendicular to the
longitudinal centreline of the vehicle
on a horizontal plane and directed
from the outside towards the inside
of the vehicle.
