Safety
The driver must ensure that passengers use
the seat belts correctly and that they are all
restrained 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 iner tia reel
permitting automatic adjustment of the length
of the strap to your size. The seat belt is
stowed automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the seat
belt 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 iner tia reels are fitted with an automatic
locking device which comes into operation in
the 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.
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 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 not
twist,
- be used to restrain only one person,
- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- not be conver ted or modified to avoid
affecting its per formance.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, for all repairs on your vehicle,
go to a qualified workshop with the skills
and equipment needed, which a PEUGEOT
dealer is able to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regularly by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop,
par ticularly if the straps show signs of
damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold by
PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear bench
seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned
and reeled in correctly.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and
seriousness 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 the
activation of the pyrotechnic car tridge
incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat belts
system checked, and if necessary replaced,
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Safety
Airbags
System designed to maximise the safety of the
occupants (with the exception of the rear centre
passenger) in the event of violent collisions.
It supplements the action of the force-limiting
seat belts (with the exception of the rear centre
passenger).
If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side impacts
sustained in the impact detection zones:
- in the case of a serious impact, the airbags
are deployed instantly and protect the
occupants of the vehicle (with the exception
of the rear centre passenger); immediately
after the impact, the airbags deflate rapidly
so that they do not hinder visibility or the
exit of the occupants,
- in the case of a minor or rear impact or in
cer tain roll-over conditions, the airbags
will not be deployed; the seat belt alone is
sufficient to provide optimum protection in
these situations.
The airbags do not operate when the
ignition is switched off.
This equipment will only deploy once.
If a second impact occurs (during
the same or a subsequent accident),
the airbag will not be deployed again. Deployment of the airbag(s) is
accompanied by a slight emission of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic car tridge
incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience slight
irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time.
Impact detection zones
A.
Front impact zone.
B.
Side impact zone.
Front airbags
Deployment
The airbags are deployed simultaneously, unless
the passenger's front airbag is deactivated, in the
event of a serious front impact to all or par t of the
front impact zone A
, in the longitudinal centreline
of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed
from the front to the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag inflates between the thorax
and head of the front occupant of the vehicle
and the steering wheel, driver's side, and the
dashboard, passenger's side to cushion their
for ward movement. System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious front impact
in order to limit the risk of injury to the head and
thorax.
The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the
steering wheel; the front passenger's airbag is
fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.
