The driver must ensure that passengers usethe seat belts correctly and that they are allrestrained securely before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle, always fasten your seat belt, even for short journeys. Do not interchange the seat belt buckles as they will not fulfil their role fully.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel permitting automatic adjustment of the lengthof the strap to your size. The seat belt isstowed automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the seatbelt 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 automatic locking device which comes into operation inthe event of a collision, emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls over. You can release the device by pulling firmly on the strap and releasing it so that it reels in slightly.

In order to be effective, a seat belt must:


- be tightened as close to the body as possible,


- be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking that it does nottwist,

- be used to restrain only one person,

- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,

- not be converted or modified to avoidaffecting its per formance.
In accordance with current safety regulations, for all repairs on your vehicle, go to aqualified workshop with the skills and equipment needed, which a CITROËN dealer is able to provide. Have your seat belts checked regularly by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop, 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 benchseat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned and reeled in correctly.


Recommendations for children

Use a suitable child seat if the passenger is less than 12 years old or shor ter than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to secure more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your lap.


In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature andseriousness of the impact , the pretensioning device may be deployed before and independently of the airbags.Deployment of the pretensioners is accompanied by a slight discharge of harmless smoke and a noise, due to theactivation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lampcomes on.
Following an impact, have the seat beltssystem checked, and if necessary replaced, by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:
Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre par t of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on thedashboard.
If possible, 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.



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 cancontact a CITROËN dealer (see "Practicalinformation - § Accessories").
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat backs (clothing...). This could cause injury to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag isdeployed.
Do not sit with the upper par t of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.


Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. This could cause injury to the head if thecurtain airbag is deployed.
If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove the grab handles installed on the roof, they play a par t in securing the cur tain airbags.


Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the occupantsand the airbags (a child, pet, object...). This could hamper the operation of the airbags or injure the occupants. After an accident or if the vehicle has beenstolen or broken into, have the airbagsystems checked. All work on the airbag system must be carriedout by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are obser ved, a risk of injury or of minor burns to the head, chest or arms when an airbag is deployed cannot be ruled out. The
