In cold weather, wait for this warning lamp
to go off then operate the starter (Starting

Seat belts



Height adjustment

Squeeze the control with the return and slide
the assembly on the driver's seat side and
on the individual passenger seat side.
If your vehicle is fitted with a front bench,
the height of the seat belt associated with
the centre seat cannot be adjusted.


Unfastening

Press the red button.

SEAT BELTS


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 allow the seat belt
straps to fit loosely.
Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt has
reeled in 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 deployed before and independently of
inflation of the airbags. It instantly tightens
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
Deployment 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.

Fastening

Pull the strap, then insert the tongue into the
buckle.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap.
Driver's seat belt not fastened warning
lamp

Passenger seat belt not fastened warning
lamp When the vehicle is started, this
warning lamp comes on if the
driver has not fastened their seat
belt.
If your vehicle is fitted with a front
passenger seat, when the vehicle
is started, this warning lamp
comes on if the passenger has not
fastened their seat belt.
