seats PEUGEOT EXPERT 2018 Owner's Manual

156
Advice
For the airbags to be fully effective,
observe the safety recommendations
below.
Adopt a normal and upright sitting position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the occupants
and the airbags (a child, pet, object, etc.),
nor fix or attach anything close or in the way
of airbag trajectory; this could cause injuries
during their deployment.
Never modify the original definition of your
vehicle, particularly in the area directly
around the airbags.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen, have the airbag systems checked.
All work on the airbag system must be carried
out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Even when following all the precautions
listed, a risk of injuries or slight burns to
the head, the chest or the arms, when an
airbag deploys cannot be excluded. The
bag inflates almost instantly (within a few
milliseconds) then deflates within the same
time discharging the hot gas via 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.
Do not smoke 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.
Do not fit or attach anything to the steering
wheel or dashboard, this could cause injuries
in case of airbag deployment.
Curtain airbags
Do not attach anything or hang anything to the
roof, as this could cause head injuries when the
curtain airbag is deployed.
If fitted to your vehicle, do not remove the grab
handles installed on the roof, they play a part in
securing the curtain airbags. Side airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment of the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not attach or hang anything to the seat
backrests (clothes, etc.) as this could cause
injuries to the thorax or arm when the side
airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.
The vehicle's front door panels include side
impact sensors.
A damaged door or any unauthorised or
incorrectly executed work (modification or
repair) on the front doors or their interior trim
could compromise the operation of these
sensors – Risk of malfunction of the lateral
airbags!
Such work must only be done by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.

General points relating to
child seats
* The legislation on carrying children is specific to each country.
Although one of PEUGEOT's main
considerations when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also depends on
you.

or less
than one and a half metres tall must

vehicle for carr ying children are the rear
seats.

Key"ISOFIX" mountings
Your vehicle has been approved in accordance
with the latest ISOFIX regulation.
If fitted on your vehicle, the regulation ISOFIX
mountings are located by labels.
The mountings comprise three rings for each
seat:
-

T
wo front rings A , located between the
vehicle seat backrest and cushion, indicated
by an "ISOFIX" marking,
-

I
f fitted to your vehicle, a rear ring B , located
behind the vehicle's seat, called Top Tether,
for securing the upper strap, indicated by a
"Top Tether" marking.
Safety

167
The Top Tether secures the upper strap of child
seats that have them. In case of frontal impact,
this device limits the tilting of the child seat
forward.
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 on the two front
rings A.
Some also have an upper strap which is
attached to the rear ring B .
To secure the child seat to the Top Tether:
-

r
emove and stow the head restraint before
installing a child seat on this seat (refit it
once the child seat has been removed),
-

r
un the strap of the child seat behind the top
of the seat backrest, centring it between the
holes for the head restraint rods,
-

f
ix the hook of the upper strap to the rear
ring B ,
-

t
ighten the upper strap. The incorrect installation of a child seat in
a vehicle compromises the protection of
the child in the event of an accident.
Strictly follow the fitting instructions
provided in the user guide supplied with
the child seat.
For information on the possibilities for
installing ISOFIX child seats in your
vehicle, refer to the locations table.
