Airbags


AIRBAGS

The Airbags have been designed to
maximise 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, the
electronic detectors record and analyse the
front and side impacts suffered in the impact
detection zones:


- in the event of a serious impact, the
Airbags inflate instantly and protect the
occupants of the vehicle. Immediately
after the impact, the Airbags deflate
rapidly, so that they do not 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
Airbags will not be deployed; the seat belt
alone is sufficient to provide maximum
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.
Airbags 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 Airbag will not
operate.
The triggering of an Airbag or Airbags
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.
It is imperative that the passenger
Airbag is disarmed if a child seat is
installed facing rearwards. Refer to the
"Children on board" section of chapter 5.

SAFETY


Airbags



For the airbags to be fully effective,
observe the following safety rules:
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,
object...). This could hamper the operation
of the airbags or injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
All work on the airbag systems must be
carried out by a PEUGEOT or a qualified
workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are
observed, a risk of injury or of slight burns
to the head, chest or arms when an airbag
is deployed cannot be ruled out. In fact,
the bag inflates almost instantly (within a
few milliseconds) then deflates within the
same time, discharging the hot gas through
openings provided for this purpose.
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 as 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
Only put approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment of lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a PEUGEOT dealer. Refer to the
"Accessories" section.
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs. This could cause injury to the chest
or arms when the lateral airbag inflates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.

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 European regulations,
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 "rearwards-facing"
position in the front.


PEUGEOT recommends that children
should travel in the rear seats of your
vehicle:


- "rearwards-facing" up to the age of 2 ,

- "forwards-facing" from the age of 2.


INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT USING A THREE POINT SEAT BELT

"Rearwards-facing"


Do not forget to disarm the Airbag
before installing the child.
When a "rearwards-facing" child
seat is installed on the front
passenger seat , it is essential that the
passenger Airbag is disarmed. Otherwise,
the child would risk being seriously
injured or killed if the Airbag were to
inflate .
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child
seat is installed on the front
passenger seat , leave the
passenger Airbag armed.
The rules for transporting children are
specific to each country. Consult the current
legislation in your country.
Please consult the list of seats
approved in your country. The Isofix
mountings, the rear seats, the passenger
Airbag and the disarming of this Airbag
depend on the version sold.

Child safety


ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS

Installing a booster seat

The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
PEUGEOT recommends the use of a
booster seat which has a back, fitted with a
seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:


- one or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,

- a child or an animal in a vehicle which
is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,

- the keys within reach of children inside
the vehicle.

To prevent accidental opening of the doors,
use the "Child lock". Children under the age of 10 must not travel
in the "forward facing" position on the front
passenger seat, unless the rear seats are
already occupied by other children, cannot
be used or are absent.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag when a
"rear facing" child seat is installed on the
front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were
to inflate. The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses keeping the slack
in
relation to the child's body to a minimum
,
even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the "forward
facing" child seat, ensure that the back of
the child seat is in contact with the back of
the vehicle's seat and that the head restraint
does not cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be removed,
ensure that it is stored or attached securely
to prevent it from being thrown around the
vehicle in the event of sharp braking.
To protect young children from the sun,
fit side blinds on the rear windows.

"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS

Some also have an upper strap which is
attached to the rear ring.
To attach this strap, raise the vehicle seat's
head restraint then pass the hook between
its rods. Then fix the hook on the rear ring
and tighten the upper strap.

ISOFIX
RÖMER Duo Plus
(size category B1
)


Group 1: from 9 to 18 kg





Installed in the forward facing position.
Fitted with an upper strap to be secured
on the ISOFIX upper ring, referred to as
the TOP TETHER.
Three seat body angles: sitting,
reclining, lying.
This child seat can also be used on
seats which are not fitted with ISOFIX
mountings.
In this case, it must be attached to the
vehicle seat using the three point seat belt.

Follow the instructions for fitting
the child seat given in the seat
manufacturer's installation guide.

The incorrect installation of a child seat
in a vehicle compromises the child's
protection in the event of an accident.
ISOFIX CHILD SEAT RECOMMENDEDBY PEUGEOT AND APPROVED FOR
YOUR VEHICLE


Your vehicle has been approved in
accordance with the new ISOFIX regulation.
The mountings comprise three rings for each
rear bench side seat:


- two front rings, located between the
vehicle seat back and cushion,

- a rear ring, for securing the upper strap
referred to as the TOP TETHER.
This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in
your vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with
two latches which are secured easily on the
two front rings.
