curtain air bags, observe this good
practice.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the air bags (a child,
pet, object...). This could hamper the
operation of the air bags or injure the
occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has
been stolen or broken into, have the air
bag systems checked.
All work on the air bag system is strictly
forbidden unless it is carried out by

network . Front air bags
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 fascia.
Smoke as little as possible as
deployment of the air bags can cause
burns or the risk of injury from a
cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering
wheel or hit it violently.

Airbags
Disarming
The passenger’s front air bag alone can be disarmed:
With the ignition switched off,insert the key into the passenger air bag disarming switch,
turn it to the "OFF" position,
then remove the key keeping the slot in this position.
Front air bags
The front air bags are incorporated in the
centre of the steering wheel for the driver
and in the fascia for the front passenger.
Front air bag fault
If this warning light comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the display, consult a PEUGEOT dealer to have the system checked.
Reactivation
In the "OFF" position, the passenger air bag will not be triggered in the event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed, turn the air bag slot to the "ON"position to re-activate the air bag and thus ensure the safety of your passenger in the event of an impact.
To ensure the safety of your child, it is essential to disarm the passenger air bag when you install a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being killed or seriously i n j u r e d i f t h e a i r b a g w e r e t o i n fl a t e .
The air bag warning light on the instrument panel is lit throughout the period of disarming.
If the two air bag warning lights are lit continuously, do not install a rear-facing child seat. Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Activation
They are deployed simultaneously, unless the passenger’s front air bag has been disarmed, in the event of a serious front impact applied to all or part of the front impact zone A in the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane directed from the front towards the rear of the vehicle.
T h e f r o n t a i r b a g i n fl a t e s b e t w e e n the front occupant of the vehicle and the fascia to cushion his forward movement.

SAFETY

Airbags
5
The air bags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
(with the exception of the centre
seats of rows 2 and 3) in the event
of a serious collision; they work in
conjunction with the force limiting seat
belts.
In the event of a serious collision, the
electronic detectors record and analyse
the front and side impacts suffered in
the impact detection zones:
- in the event of a serious impact, t h e a i r b a g s i n fl a t e i n s t a n t l y a n d
protect the occupants of the
vehicle.
Immediately after the impact, the air
b a g s d e fl a t e r a p i d l y , s o t h a t t h e y d o n o t
hinder the visibility of the occupants
nor their possible exit from the vehicle. - in the event of a minor or rear
impact and in certain roll-over
conditions, the air bags will not
be deployed; the seat belt alone
i s s u f fi c i e n t t o p r o v i d e m a x i m u m
protection in these situations.
The seriousness of the collision
depends on the nature of the obstacle
and the speed of the vehicle at the
moment of impact. Air bags only operate when
the ignition is switched on.
This equipment only operates once.
If a second impact occurs (during the
same or a subsequent accident), the
air bag will not operate.
The triggering of an air bag or air bags
is accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but
sensitive individuals may experience
some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time.
AIR BAGS
It is imperative that the passenger
air bag is disarmed if a child seat
is installed facing rearwards. Refer
to the "Children on board" section of
chapter 5.

CHILD SAFETY
GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS
Although one of PEUGEOT’s main
criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also
depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow
these precautions:
- in accordance with Directive 2003/20, all children under the age
o f 1 2 o r l e s s t h a n o n e m e t r e fi f t y t a l l
must travel in approved child seats
suited to their weight, on seats
fi t t e d w i t h a s e a t b e l t o r I S O F I X
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 "rearwards-
facing" position both in the front
and in the rear. "Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, it
is essential that the passenger air bag
is disarmed. Otherwise, the child would
risk being seriously injured or killed if
t h e a i r b a g w e r e t o i n fl a t e .
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat,
leave the passenger air bag armed.
INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT USING A THREE POINT SEAT BELT
Intermediate longitudinal
position
I f y o u r v e h i c l e i s fi t t e d w i t h a p a s s e n g e r
seat with longitudinal adjustment,
adjust it to the intermediate longitudinal
position, seat back upright.
PEUGEOT recommends that children
should travel in the rear seats of your
vehicle :
-
"rearwards-facing" up to the age of 2,
- "forwards-facing" over the age of 2.
The rules for transporting children are
s p e c i fi c t o e a c h c o u n t r y . C o n s u l t t h e
current legislation in your country.
Please consult the list of seats
a p p r o v e d i n y o u r c o u n t r y . T h e i s o fi x
mountings, the rear seats, the
passenger air bag and the disarming
of this air bag depend on the version
sold.
