If these warning lamps come on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message, this indicates a
fault with the electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD).
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
make sure that these are approved for
your vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS system may
be indicated by slight vibration felt at the
brake pedal.
In case of emergency braking, press
ver y hard without releasing the
pressure at all.
After an impact, have these systems
checked in the dealer network or by a
qualified workshop.Anti-slip regulation (ASR)/

(DSC)
Operation
These systems are activated automatically
every time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event of a
problem with grip or trajectory.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate
these systems, so that the wheels can turn
freely and regain grip. The indicator lamp in the button comes on to
indicate that these systems are deactivated.
The ASR and DSC systems will no longer have
an effect on engine operation or the brakes in
the event of an involuntary change of trajectory.
Reactivation
These systems are reactivated automatically
each time the ignition is switched back on or
above around 30 mph (50 km/h).

ASR/DSC
These systems offer increased safety
in normal driving, but they should not
encourage the driver to take extra risks or
drive at high speed.
It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain,
snow, ice) that the risk of loss of grip
increases. It is therefore important for your
safety to keep these systems activated in
all conditions, and particularly in difficult
conditions.
The correct operation of these systems
depends on observation of the
manufacturer's recommendations, not
only about the wheels (tyres and rims),
braking and electronic components but
also the assembly and repair procedures
used in the dealer network.
To benefit in full from the effectiveness
of these systems in wintry conditions,
the vehicle must be fitted with four snow
tyres, allowing the vehicle to retain neutral
behaviour on the road.Seat belts
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fitted with a
pretensioning and force limiting system.
This system improves safety in the front
seats in the event of a front or side impact.
Depending on the severity of the impact, the
pretensioning system instantly tightens the seat
belts against the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when
the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure of
the seat belt on the passenger’s chest, thus
improving their protection.

Operating fault
If this warning lamp in the instrument
panel comes on, you must contact the
dealer network or a qualified workshop
to have the system checked. The
airbags might no longer deploy in a
crash.
Lateral airbags
This system protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a severe side impact
to minimise the risk of injury to the chest,
between hip and shoulder.
Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest
frame, door side.
Impact detection zones
A.Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
Deployment
The airbag is deployed unilaterally in the
event of a severe side impact covering all or
part of 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.
The lateral airbag inflates between the hip
and shoulder of the front passenger and the
corresponding door trim panel.
Curtain airbags
System contributing towards greater protection
for the driver and passengers (with the
exception of the rear centre passenger) in the
event of a serious side impact in order to limit
the risk of injury to the side of the head.
Deployment
The airbag is deployed at the same time as
the corresponding lateral 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.
The curtain airbag inflates between the front or
rear occupant of the vehicle and the windows.
Malfunction
If this warning lamp in the instrument
panel comes on, you must contact the
dealer network or a qualified workshop
to have the system checked. The
airbags might no longer deploy in a
crash.
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.
In the event of a rear or front collision, the
airbag is not deployed.
Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and
the upper passenger compartment area.
