For  safety  reasons,  carry  out  any  adjustments  when  the  vehicle  is  not

We would advise you not to recline the seatbacks too far to ensure that 
the effectiveness of the seat belts is not reduced.
Make sure that the seatbacks are correctly locked in place.
Nothing should be placed on the floor (area in front of driver) as such objects may 
slide under the pedal during braking manoeuvres, thus obstructing its use.

MeTHODS OF ReSTRAINT IN  ADDITION TO THe FRONT SeAT BeLTS (3/3)
Warnings concerning the driver’s air bag
– Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.
–  Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.
–  Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone cradle, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.
–  The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel from our Network).
–  Do not sit too close to the steering wheel when driving: sit with your arms slightly bent (see Section 1 “Adjusting your driving 
position”). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to deploy correctly and be fully effective.
Warnings concerning the passenger air bag
–  Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone cradle, etc.) to the dashboard in the air bag zone.
–  Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (animal, umbrella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
–  The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as there is a risk that serious injuries may occur. As a 
general rule, keep all body parts (knees, hands, head, etc.) away from the dashboard.
–  The devices in addition to the front passenger seat belt should be reactivated as soon as a child seat is removed, to ensure 
the protection of the passenger in the event of an impact.

All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent 
the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when the air bag inflates.

Additional methods of restraint
The air bag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both 
the  air  bags  and  seat  belts  are  integral  parts  of  the  same  protection 
system. It is therefore essential to wear seat belts at all times. If seat belts 
are  not  worn,  the  occupants  are  exposed  to  the  risk  of  serious  injury  in 
the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superficial injuries 
occurring when the air bag is deployed, although such minor injuries are always 
possible with air bags.
If  the  vehicle  should  overturn  or  suffer  a  rear  impact,  however  severe,  the  pre-
tensioners and air bags are not always triggered. Impacts to the underside of the 
vehicle, eg. from pavements, potholes or stones, can all trigger these systems.
–  No work or modification  whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the air 
bag  system  (air  bags,  pretensioners,  computer,  wiring  harness,  etc.),  except 
by qualified personnel from an approved Dealer.
–  To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidental trig-
gering of the system which may cause injury, only qualified Network personnel 
may work on the air bag system.
–  As  a  safety  precaution,  have  the  air  bag  system  checked  if  your  vehicle  has 
been involved in an accident, or is stolen or broken into.
–  When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and hand 
over this handbook with the vehicle.
–  When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved Dealer for disposal of the 
gas generator(s).

Operating faults
Warning  light  1   will  light  up  on  the  in -
strument  panel  when  the  ignition  is 
turned  on  and  then  go  out  after  a  few 
seconds.
If it does not come on when the ignition 
is  switched  on,  or  if  it  comes  on  when 
the  engine  is  running,  there  is  a  fault 
with  the  system  (air  bags,  pretension -
ers, etc.) in the front and/or rear seats.
Contact  your  approved  dealer  as  soon 
as  possible.  Your  protection  will  be  re-
duced until this fault is rectified.
1All of the warnings below are given  so that the air bag is not obstructed in any 
way when it is inflated and  also to prevent the risk of serious injuries caused 
by items which may be dislodged when the air bag inflates.
