WARNINGS
Do not operate the luggage
compartment lid unless it is free from
obstruction.
Careless opening and closing of the
luggage compartment lid can
override the protection function and
cause injuries. The luggage compartment lid can be
operated using the remote control, the
centre console switch, the luggage
compartment lid switch or the luggage
compartment lid release handle.
See Locking and Unlocking (page 39).
Keyless entry Passive locking and unlocking requires a
valid passive key to be located within one
of the three external detection ranges. Unlocking the vehicle Open any door.
Note:
A valid passive key must be located
within the detection range of that door.
One long flash of the direction indicators
confirms that all the doors and the luggage
compartment lid have been unlocked and
that the alarm has been disarmed.
Locking the vehicle Touch a front door handle lock sensor to
lock the vehicle.
See Keyless Entry (page 43).
Adjusting the steering wheel WARNING

Press the start button.
Stopping the engine when the vehicle
is moving
WARNING
Switching off the engine when the
vehicle is still moving will result in a
loss of brake and steering assistance.
The steering will not be locked, but higher
effort will be required. When the ignition is
switched off some electrical circuits,
warning lamps and indicators may also be
OFF. Press and hold the start button for two
seconds, or press three times within three
seconds.
Press the start button.
See Keyless Starting (page 129).
Diesel particulate filter (DPF) WARNING
Do not park or idle your vehicle over
dry leaves, dry grass or other
combustible materials. The DPF
regeneration process creates very high
exhaust gas temperatures and the exhaust
will radiate a considerable amount of heat
during and after DPF regeneration, and
after you have switched the engine off.
This is a potential fire hazard. See Diesel Particulate Filter (page 130).
Fuel filler flap Press the flap to open it. Open the flap fully
until it engages.
Insert the fuel nozzle up to and including
the first notch on the nozzle A. Keep it
resting on the cover of the fuel pipe
opening.

Airbags
WARNINGS
Do not modify the front of your
vehicle in any way. This could
adversely affect deployment of the
airbags. Extreme Hazard! Do not use a
rearward facing child restraint on a
seat protected by an airbag in front
of it! Wear a seat belt and keep sufficient
distance between yourself and the
steering wheel. Only when you use
the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a
position that allows the airbag to achieve
its optimum effect. See Sitting in the
Correct Position (page 109). Have repairs to the steering wheel,
steering column, seats, airbags and
seat belts carried out by a properly
trained technician. Keep the areas in front of the airbags
free from obstruction. Do not affix
anything to or over the airbag covers.
Do not poke sharp objects into areas
where airbags are fitted. This could
damage and adversely affect
deployment of the airbags. Use seat covers designed for seats
with side airbags. Have these fitted
by a properly trained technician.
Note:
You will hear a loud bang and see a
cloud of harmless powdery residue if an
airbag deploys. This is normal.
Note: Only wipe airbag covers with a damp
cloth. Front airbags
The driver airbag, front passenger airbag
and the seat belt pretensioners will deploy
during significant frontal collisions or
collisions that are up to 30 degrees from
the left or the right. The airbags will inflate
within a few thousandths of a second and
deflate on contact with the occupants,
thus cushioning forward body movement.
During minor frontal collisions, overturns,
rear collisions and side collisions, the driver
and front passenger airbags will not
deploy.
Side and curtain airbags
During significant lateral collisions, only
the airbags on the side affected by the
collision and the seat belt pretensioners
will deploy. The airbags will inflate within
a few thousandths of a second and deflate
on contact with the occupants, thus
providing protection for the body. The side
and curtain airbags will not deploy during
minor lateral collisions, front collisions, rear
collisions or overturns.

Occupant protectionE74302
Page 30 of 296
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Side airbags
Side airbags are fitted inside the seatback
of the front seats. A label indicates that
side airbags are fitted to your vehicle.
Curtain airbags
Curtain airbags are fitted inside the trim
panels over the front and rear side
windows. Moulded badges in the B-pillar
trim panels indicate that curtain airbags
are fitted to your vehicle.
Seat belts
WARNINGS
Wear a seat belt and keep sufficient
distance between yourself and the
steering wheel. Only when you use
the seat belt properly, can it hold you in a
position to achieve its optimum effect. See
Sitting in the Correct Position (page
109). WARNINGS
Never use a seat belt for more than
one person.
Use the correct buckle for each seat
belt.
Do not use a seat belt that is slack
or twisted.
Do not wear thick clothing. The seat
belt must fit tightly around your body
to achieve its optimum effect.
Position the shoulder strap of the
seat belt over the centre of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips. Seat belt pretensioners have a lower
deployment threshold than the airbags.
During minor collisions, it is possible that
only the seat belt pretensioners will deploy.
All vehicles
The driver and front passenger seat belt
systems are fitted with a seat belt
pretensioner.
Grand C-MAX
The second row centre seat belt system is
also fitted with a seat belt pretensioner.
Status after a collision
WARNINGS
Seat belts subjected to strain, as a
result of an accident, should be
renewed and the anchorages
checked by a properly trained technician. If a seat belt pretensioner has been
deployed the seat belt must be
renewed.

ADJUSTMENT
Note:
Lifting the slider slightly while

on the adjuster and move as necessary.
SEAT BELT REMINDER WARNING
The occupant protection system will
only provide optimum protection
when you use the seat belt properly.
The seat belt reminder warning
lamp illuminates and an audible
warning will sound if the driver's
or front seat passenger's seat belt has not
been fastened and the vehicle exceeds a
relatively low speed. It will also illuminate
if the driver's or front seat passenger's seat
belt is unfastened when the vehicle is
moving. The audible warning will go off
after a few minutes but the seat belt
reminder warning lamp will remain on until
the driver's or front seat passenger's seat
belt is fastened. Deactivating the seat belt
reminder
See your dealer.
Grand C-MAX only
Rear seat belt reminder
WARNING
If multiple belts are unfastened
within a few seconds of each other,
only one audible chime will sound.
Note:
Press the OK button on the steering
wheel control to confirm the message.
A visual reminder of the seat belt status
will be shown on the instrument display
once the engine is started, and once again
if any are unfastened when the vehicle is
moving.
Fastened seat belts are indicated by a tick
symbol.
If a belt is unfastened when the vehicle is
moving, the seat belt status screen will be
displayed and the relevant seats will be
highlighted by an exclamation mark. An
audible chime will also sound.
