Reactivation
The ASR system is reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched back on.
- Press this button again to reactivate it manually.
Operating fault If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the instrument
panel screen, this indicates a fault
with the ASR system.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Good practice
The DSC and ASR systems offer exceptional
safety in normal driving, but this should not
encourage the driver to take extra risks or
drive at high speed.
The correct operation of these systems
depend on observation of the manufacturer's
recommendations regarding the wheels
(tyres and rims), the braking components,
the electronic components and assembly
and repair procedures.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Intelligent Traction Control
System to improve traction on slippery
surfaces (snow, black ice, mud...)
This system checks for situations of difficult
surface adhesion that could make it difficult
to move off or make progress.
In these situations, Intelligent Traction
Control takes over from the ASR system,
by transferring drive to the wheel with the
best grip on the ground to provide the best
traction and trajectory control.
Load inertia control
The true total weight of a commercial vehicle
can vary considerably depending on the load
carried. As a result, the centre of gravity of
the vehicle can move, both longitudinally
and in height.
All such variations have an effect on braking,
traction, the behaviour of the vehicle when
cornering and the tendency to overturn.
Load inertia control estimates the true
total weight of the vehicle by analysing its
behaviour under acceleration and braking.
This system then adapts the operation of
the DSC and ASR systems according to the
weight distribution in the vehicle. In critical
situations, your vehicle than remains more
securely on its intended trajectory.

CAB SEAT BELTS
The front seats are fitted with pre-tensioners
and force limiters.
The bench rear seat is fitted with two seat
belts.
If you install a bench seat after handover, it
must be fitted with seat belts.
REAR SEAT BELTS
The seats/bench seats are fitted with three-
point seat belts and inertia reels.
The centre seat has a seat belt guide and
inertia reel, solid with the seat back.
Height adjustment
Squeeze the control with the return and slide
the assembly on the driver's seat side and
on the side passenger seat side.
The height of the seat belt associated with
the centre seat cannot be adjusted.
Fastening

JUMPER-PAPIER_EN_CHAP05_SECURITE_ED01-2014
The force limiter reduces the pressure
of the seat belt against the body of the
occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when
the ignition is switched on.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device
which automatically locks the strap in the
event of a collision or emergency braking or
if the vehicle rolls over.
You can unfasten the seat belt by pressing
the red button on the buckle. Guide the seat
belt after unfastening. Good practice
The driver must ensure that passengers
use the seat belts correctly and that they
are all strapped in securely before
moving off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel
which automatically adjusts the length of the
strap to your size.
Do not use accessories (clothes pegs, clips,
safety pins, etc.) which allow the seat belt
straps to fit loosely.
Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat or
a rear bench seat, ensure that the seat
belt has reeled in correctly and that
the buckle is ready to accommodate
the tongue.
Depending on the nature and seriousness of
any impact, the pretensioning device may be
deployed before and independently of infl ation
of the airbags. It instantly tightens the seat
belts against the body of the occupants.
Deployment of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system. The airbag warning lamp also
comes on if the pretensioners are
deployed. Contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
In order to be effective, a seat belt:
- must restrain one person only,
- must not be twisted, check by pulling in front of you with an even movement,
- must be tightened as close to the body as possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should be
positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low as
possible on the pelvis. Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they
will not fulfil their role completely. If the
seats are fitted with armrests, the lap part of
the seat belt should always pass under the
armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap firmly.
Recommendations for children
Use an appropriate child seat if the
passenger is under 12 years or less than
one and a half metres tall.
Never carry a child on your knees, even with
the seat belt fastened.
For more information on child seats,
refer to the "Safety - Children on board"
section.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, your CITROËN dealer can
guarantee all work or any checks, from
testing to maintenance, on your seat belt
equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly (even
after a minor impact) by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop: they must not show
any signs of wear, cutting or fraying and they
must not be converted or modified.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by CITROËN dealers.

Impact resistance
Your vehicle has been designed to limit
the forces on the passenger compartment
as much as possible in the event of a
collision, the engine compartment adopts
a progressive deformation structure and
the front doors have been reinforced to
contribute to the rigidity of the whole.
Anti-theft protection
Your vehicle, in the van version, comprises
two zones with separate locking: the cab
and the load space.
Depending on the way in which it is used,
this function provides increased protection
both for your personal belongings and for
your merchandise.
An exterior protection alarm with anti-tilt
detection is available (as standard or as an
option) in certain countries. Details of these functions are given
in the "Ready to go - Front and rear
doors" section.

SAFETY
JUMPER-PAPIER_EN_CHAP05_SECURITE_ED01-2014
GENERAL POINTS ON AIRBAGS
The airbags have been designed to optimise
the safety of the occupants in the event of
a serious collision; they work in conjunction
with the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, electronic
detectors record and analyse any abrupt
deceleration of the vehicle:
- in the event of a serious collision, the airbags are deployed instantly and
contribute towards better protection of
occupants of the vehicle; immediately
after the impact, the airbags rapidly
deflate so as to not hinder visibility or
the possible exit by the occupants,
- in the event of a less serious impact, an impact to the rear and in certain
conditions of rollover, the airbags are not deployed; the seat belts alone contribute
towards providing protection in these
situations.
Airbags only operate when the ignition is
switched on. Front airbags
These are fitted in the centre of the steering
wheel for the driver and in the dashboard
for the front passenger. They are deployed,
except the passenger's airbag if it has been
deactivated.
Deployment of the airbags is
accompanied by a slight discharge
of smoke and a noise, resulting from the
activation of the pyrotechnic charge included
in the system.
This smoke is not harmful but may be an
irritant to sensitive persons.
The noise of the detonation may result in a
slight loss of hearing for a short time. Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
contact a CITROËN dealer to
have the system checked.

Deactivating the passenger's front airbag
When OFF is selected, the passenger's front
airbag will not be triggered in the event of an
impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed, select ON to
re-activate the airbag and thus ensure the safety
of your passenger in the event of an impact. Lateral airbags and curtain airbags
If your vehicle is fitted with lateral airbags,
these are fitted to the front seat backs on
the door side.
The curtain airbags are fitted to the door
pillars and the upper part of the passenger
compartment, in the roof over the front cab
seats.
They inflate between the occupant and the
glazed area.
They are deployed independently of each
other depending on which side the collision
occurs.
To ensure the safety of your child, it is
essential to deactivate the passenger's
front airbag when you install a rearward
facing child seat on the front passenger
seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being
killed or seriously injured if the airbag were
to inflate.
If your vehicle is not fitted with this facility:
do not install a rearward facing child seat. Deactivation check
This is confirmed by the
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by a message in
the display screen, every time the
engine is started.
Operating fault If this warning lamp comes on,
contact a CITROËN dealer to
have the vehicle checked.
Refer to the "Technology on board -
Vehicle configuration" section.
The setting is made using the "
MODE "
button: in the "Passenger airbag" menu,
select " OFF ".

SAFETY
JUMPER-PAPIER_EN_CHAP05_SECURITE_ED01-2014
Good practice
If your vehicle is fitted with front, lateral
and curtain airbags, in order for these to
be fully effective, observe the following
safety rules:
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (child, animal,
object...).
This could hamper the operation of the
airbags or injure the occupants.
All work on the airbag systems must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by its spokes or resting your hands on the
centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the
dashboard.
Smoke as little as possible; 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
Fit only approved covers on the front seats,
compatible with the deployment of lateral
airbags. For information on the range of
covers suitable for your vehicle, contact a
CITROËN dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the front seat
backs. This could cause injury to the chest
or arms when the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.
Curtain airbags
Do not fix or attach anything to the pillars or
the roof. This could cause injury to the head
when the curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the bolts from the grab
handles installed on the roof, they play a
part in securing the curtain airbags.

Child safety
108
JUMPER-PAPIER_EN_CHAP05_SECURITE_ED01-2014
GENERAL POINTS ON CHILD SEATS
Although one of CITROËN's main criteria
when designing your vehicle, the safety of
your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow these
precautions:
- all children under the age of 12 or less than one metre fifty tall must travel in
approved child seats suited to their
weight, on seats fitted with a seat belt or
ISOFIX mountings,
- statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for the transportation of children
are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the "rearward facing" position
both in the front and in the rear,
- the passenger must not travel with a child on their lap.
Installing a child seat at the front
"Rearward facing"
When a "rearward facing" child
seat is installed on the front
passenger seat, it is essential
that the passenger's front airbag is
deactivated. Otherwise, the child would risk
being seriously injured or even killed if the
airbag were deployed. "Forward facing"
When a "forward facing"
child seat is installed on the
front passenger seat, leave
the passenger's front airbag
activated.
CITROËN recommends that children
should travel on the rear seats of
your vehicle:
- "rearward-facing" up to the age of 3,
- "forward-facing" over the age of 3. The child seats function and the
passenger's front airbag deactivation
function are common to the entire CITROËN
range.
If the passenger's front airbag is not
deactivated, the installation of a "rearward
facing" child seat in the front is strictly
prohibited.
