SAFETY
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt against the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when
the ignition is switched on.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device
which automatically locks the strap in the
event of a collision or emergency braking or
if the vehicle rolls over.
You can unfasten the seat belt by pressing
the red button on the buckle. Guide the seat
belt after unfastening. Good practice
The driver must ensure that passengers use
the seat belts correctly and that they are all
strapped in securely before moving off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel
which automatically adjusts the length of
the strap to your size.
Do not use accessories (clothes pegs, clips,
safety pins, etc.) which permit a clearance
with the seat belt straps.
Ensure that the seat belt is rolled up
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is
rolled up correctly and that the buckle is
ready to accommodate the tongue.
Depending on the nature and seriousness
of any impact, the pretensioning device may
be triggered before and independently of
inflation of the air bags. It instantly tightens
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
Triggering of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system. The air bag warning light comes
on if the pretensioners are
triggered. Consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
- restrain one person only,
- must not be twisted, check by pulling in front of you with an even movement,
- be tightened as close to the body as possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should be
positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low as
possible on the pelvis.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they
will not fulfil their role completely. If the seats are fitted with armrests, the lap
part of the seat belt should always pass
under the armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap firmly.
Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one metre fifty,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap, even with the seat belt fastened.
For further information regarding child
seats, refer to the "Children on board"
section of chapter 5.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, your PEUGEOT dealer
guarantees all work or any checks, from
testing to maintenance, on your seat belt
equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly
(even after a minor impact) by a PEUGEOT
dealer: they must not show any signs of
wear, cutting or fraying and they must not be
transformed or modified.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by PEUGEOT dealers.

Air bags

SAFETY
AIR BAGS
The air bags 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 any
abrupt deceleration of the vehicle:
if the triggering threshold is reached, the
air bags inflate instantly and protect the
occupants of the vehicle.
Immediately after the impact, the air bags
deflate rapidly, so that they do not hinder the
visibility of the occupants nor their possible
exit from the vehicle. The air bags will not be deployed in
collisions which are not serious, for
which the seat belt is sufficient to provide
maximum protection. 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. Front air bags
These are folded in the centre of the steering
wheel for the driver and in the fascia for
the front passenger. They are deployed
simultaneously, except in cases where the
passenger air bag has been disarmed.
The gas escaping from the deployed
air bags can be a minor irritant.
The noise of the detonation may result in a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.
Front air bag malfunction
If this warning light comes on,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer to
have the system checked.

SAFETY
Good practice

If your vehicle is fitted with front, side
and curtain air bags, in order for these to
be fully effective, observe the following
safety rules:
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the air bags (child, animal,
object...).
This could hamper the operation of the air
bags or injure the occupants.
All work on the air bag systems is strictly
prohibited unless it is carried out by qualified
personnel of the PEUGEOT network.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the air bag
systems checked. 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; 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.
Side air bags
Only put approved covers on the front seats.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fix or glue anything to the front seat
backs. This could cause injury to the chest
or arms when the side air bag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.
Curtain air bags
Do not fix or glue anything to the pillars or
the roof. This could cause injury to the head
when the curtain air bag is deployed.
Do not remove the bolts from the grab
handles installed on the roof, they play a
part in securing the curtain air bags.
