Système antidémarrage
ENGINE IMMOBILISER
This prevents the vehicle being driven by anyone not in possession of the vehicle’s coded ignition key.
Operating principle
The vehicle is automatically protected a few seconds after the ignition is switched off.
If the vehicle does not recognise the
coded ignition key, tell-tale light 1 will flash continuously and the engine cannot be started.
Any unauthorised work carried out on the engine immobiliser (computers, wiring, etc.) could be dan- gerous. Work must be carried out by qualified personnel.
Indicator light
System operating tell-tale light
When the ignition is switched on, tell-
tale 1 lights up continuously for approx- imately three seconds and then goes out. The vehicle has recognised the code. You can then start the engine. v
ehicle protection tell-tale light
A few seconds after the ignition has
been switched off, tell-tale light 1 will flash constantly.
The vehicle will only be protected after the ignition has been switched off.
Operating fault warning light
After the ignition has been switched
on, if warning light 1 continues to flash or remains continuously lit, there is a system operating fault.
In all cases, it is essential to contact an approved dealer as only they are qual- ified to repair the engine immobiliser.
If the coded ignition key is faulty, use the second key (supplied with the vehicle).

Methods of restraint in addition to the front seat belts
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS
These are:
– pretensioners
,
– force limiter,
– air bags for driver and front pas
- senger.
These systems are designed to act independently or together when the vehicle is subjected to a frontal impact.
There are three possibilities, depending on the level of impact force:
– protection is provided by the seat
belt only;
– the pretensioner is triggered to rec
- tify belt position and take up seat belt slack;
– the air bag and the force limiter are
also triggered when there are severe impacts.
– Have the entire restraint system checked following an accident.
– No operation whatsoever
is permitted on any part of the system (air bags, electronic con- trol units, wiring) and the system components must not be reused on any other vehicle, even if iden- tical.
– To avoid premature triggering
of the system which may cause injury, only qualified Network p e r s o n n e l a r e a u t h o r i s e d to work on the methods of restraint in addition to the front seat belt.
– The electric trigger system may
only be tested by a specially trained technician using special equipment.
– When the vehicle is scrapped,
contact an approved dealer for disposal of the pretensioner and airbag gas generators.
Pretensioners
with the ignition on, in the event of a serious frontal impact, piston instantly retracts the seat belt buckle, pulling the seat belt against the body and thereby increasing its efficiency.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)
Driver’s and passenger
air bags
These may be provided for the driver and the front passenger seats.
The presence of this equipment is in- dicated by the words “Air bag” on the steering wheel and the dashboard, and a label on the base of the windscreen or on the sun visor.
Each air bag system consists of:
– an air bag and gas generator fitted
on the steering wheel for the driver and in the dashboard for the front passenger,
– a computer for both systems, which
includes the impact sensor and a monitor controlling the electrical trig- ger system for the gas generator;
– a single warning light
å on the instrument panel.
Load limiter
Above a certain level of impact force, this mechanism is used to limit the force of the belt against the body so that it is at an acceptable level.
The air bag system uses pyrotechnic principles. This explains why, when the air bag inflates, it will gener- ate heat, produce smoke (this does not mean that a fire is about to start) and make a noise upon detonation. An air bag may inflate immediately, causing some minor, superficial grazing to the skin or other discom-
fort.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)
Operation
This system is only operational when the ignition is switched on.
If a severe frontal impact occurs, the air bag(s) inflate(s) rapidly, cushion- ing the impact of the driver’s head and chest against the steering wheel and the front passenger’s head against the dashboard. The air bag then deflates immediately so that the passengers are not impeded in any way when they get out of the vehicle.
In addition to the driver ’s air bag system, the passenger air bag system has a front passenger air bag deacti- vation warning light on the instrument panel. This warning light is associated with the front passenger air bag deacti- vation system.
It lights up to indicate that the passen- ger air bag will not be inflated in the event of an impact (for more informa- tion about the operation of this system, refer to the section on “Deactivating the
front passenger air bag” in Section 1).
Operating faults
Warning light 1 will light up on the in- strument panel when the ignition is turned on and then go out after a few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition is switched on, or comes on when the engine is running, there is a fault in the system.
In this case, a rear-facing child seat MUST NOT be fitted to the front pas- senger seat.
Allowing any other passenger to sit in that seat is not recommended.
In these two cases, contact your approved dealer as soon as possible.
The airbag system uses py- rotechnic principles. This explains why, when the airbag inflates, it will gener- ate heat, produce smoke (this does not mean that a fire is about to start) and make a noise upon detonation. In a situation where an airbag is de- ployed, it will inflate immediately and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other problems.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)
All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent the risk of serious in- juries caused by items which may be dislodged when the air bag inflates.
warnings concerning the driver’s air bag
– Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.
– Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.
– Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to
the steering wheel boss.
– You must not remove the steering wheel (such work must only be performed by trained personnel from our Network).
– When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your arms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting your driving position” in
Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to inflate properly and be fully effective.
w arnings concerning the passenger airbag: location
2
– Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard in the proximity of the air bag housing.
– Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, um- brella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
– The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as there is a risk that serious injuries may occur. In general, all parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knees, hands, head etc.).
– You should reactivate the passenger air bag as soon as you remove the child seat to ensure the protection of the front passenger in the event of an \
impact.
IT IS PROHIBITED TO FIT A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS THE RESTRAINT SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT
PASSENGER SEAT BELT HA vE BEEN DEACTIvATED.
(Refer to the information on “Deactivating the front- passenger air bag” in Section 1).

SIDE PROTECTION DEvICES
Side air bags
These air bags may be fitted to the front seats and are deployed at the sides of the seats (door side) to protect the oc- cupants in the event of a severe side impact.
w arnings concerning the side air bag
–
Fitting seat covers: seats equipped with an air bag require covers specifically designed for your vehicle. Contact an approved Dealer to find out if such covers are available from our Network. The use of any covers other than those designed for your vehicle (including those designed for an- other vehicle) may affect the operation of the air bags and reduce your protec- tion.
– Do not place any accessories, objects, or even pets, between the seatback,
the door and the internal fittings. Do not cover the seatback with objects such as clothes or accessories. This may prevent the air bag from operating cor- rectly or cause injury when the air bag is deployed.
– No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on the seat or internal
fittings, except by qualified personnel from our Network.

The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both the airbags and seat belts are integral parts of the same protection system. It is therefore essential to wear the seat belt at all times. If seat belts are not worn, the occupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superficial injuries occurring when the airbag is deployed, although such minor injuries are always possible with air- bags.
The air bags are not always triggered if the vehicle should overturn or in the event of a rear impact, however severe. Impacts from underneath the vehicle, e.g. from pavements, potholes or stones, ca\
n all trigger these systems.
– No work or modification
whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the driver or passenger air bag system (air bag, elec- tronic unit, wiring, etc.), except by qualified personnel from our Netw\
ork.
– To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidental triggering of the system which could cause injury,
only qualified personnel from our Network may work on the air bag system\
.
– As a safety precaution, have the air bag system checked if your vehicle has been involved in an accident, or is stolen or
broken into.
– When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and hand over this driver’s handbook with the vehicle.
– When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved Dealer for disposal of the gas generator(s).
All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when\
the air bag inflates.

Choosing a child seat mounting
CHILD SAFETY : choosing a child seat mounting
The are two ways of attaching child seats: via the seat belt or using the ISOFIX system.
Attachment via the seat belt
The seat belt must be adjusted to ensure that it is effective in the event of harsh braking or an impact.
Ensure that the strap paths indicated by the child seat manufacturer are re- spected.
Always check that the seat belt is cor- rectly fastened by pulling it up, then pulling it out fully whilst pressing on the child seat.
Check that the seat is correctly held by moving it from side to side and back to front: the seat should remain firmly fixed.
Check that the child seat has not been installed at an angle and that it is not resting against a window.
Attachment with the ISOFIX system
Authorised ISOFIX child seats are ap- proved in accordance with regulation ECE-R44 in one of the three following scenarios:
– ISOFIX universal 3-point forward- facing seat
– ISOFIX semi-universal 2-point seat
– specific
For the latter two, check that your child seat can be installed by consulting the list of compatible vehicles.
Attach the child seat with the ISOFIX locks, if these are provided. The ISOFIX system allows quick, easy, safe fitting.
The ISOFIX system consists of 2 rings.
Before using an ISOFIX
child seat that you pur- chased for another vehicle, check that its installation is authorised. Consult the list of vehi- cles which can be fitted with the seat with the equipment manufacturer.
No modifications may be made to the component parts of the restraint system (belts, ISOFIX and seats and their mountings) originally fitted.
The seat belt must never be twisted or the tension relieved. Never pass the shoulder strap under the arm or behind the back.Check that the seat belt has not been damaged by sharp edges.If the seat belt does not operate nor- mally, it will not protect the child. Consult an approved dealer. Do not use this seat until the seat belt has been repaired.
Do not use the child seat if it may unfasten the seat belt restraining it: the base of the seat must not rest on the buckle and/or catch of the seat belt.
