SEAT BELTS (1/4)

Always wear your seat belt when trav-
elling in your vehicle. You must also
comply with the legislation of the par-
ticular country you are in.
Before starting, first adjust your driv-
ing position, then ask all occupants
to adjust their seat belt to ensure op-
timum protection.
I n c o r r e c t l y a d j u s t e d o r
twisted seat belts may
cause injuries in the event
of an accident.
Use one seat belt per person,
whether child or adult.
Even pregnant women should wear
a seat belt. In this case, ensure that
the lap belt is not exerting too much
pressure on the abdomen, but do
not allow any slack.
Adjusting your driving
position
(certain adjustments depend on the ve-
hicle’s equipment level)
– Sit well back in your seat (having
first removed your coat or jacket).
This is essential to ensure your back
is positioned correctly;
–

adjust the distance between the
seat and the pedals. Your seat
should be as far back as possible
while still allowing you to depress
the clutch pedal fully. The seatback
should be adjusted so that your arms
are slightly bent when you hold the
steering wheel;
–

adjust the position of your head -
rest. For the maximum safety, your
head must be as close as possible to
the headrest;
–

adjust the height of the seat. This
adjustment allows you to select the
seat position which offers you the
best possible view;
– adjust the position of the steering
wheel.
Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the
seatback.
Shoulder
strap 1 should be as close as
possible to the base of the neck but not
on it.
Lap

belt 2 should be worn flat over the
thighs and against the pelvis.
The belt should be worn so that it is
as close as possible to your body, i.e.:
avoid wearing heavy clothing or keep-
ing bulky objects under the belts, etc.

Load limiter
Above a certain level of impact force,
this mechanism is used to limit the force
of the belt against the body so that it is
at an acceptable level.
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/5)
Each air bag system consists of:
– an air bag and gas generator fitted
on the steering wheel for the driver
and in the dashboard for the front
passenger;
–

a shared electronic unit which in -
cludes the impact detector and a
monitoring system which controls
the ignition module for the gas gen-
erator;
–

a single
å tell-tale light on the
instrument panel.
Air bags for driver and front
passenger
An air bag may be provided for both the
driver and the front passenger.
The presence of this equipment is in-
dicated by the word “Air bag” on the
steering wheel and dashboard and, de-
pending on the vehicle, a label on the
lower part of the windscreen.
The air bag system uses
pyrotechnic principles. This
explains why, when the air
bag inflates, it will gener-
ate heat, produce smoke (this does
not mean that a fire is about to start)
and make a noise upon detonation.
In a situation where an air bag is
required, it will inflate immediately
and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other
problems.

Depending on the vehicle, the passen-
ger air bag system is linked to a front
passenger air bag deactivation warn-
ing

light 2 on the instrument panel. This
warning light is linked to the passenger
air bag deactivation system using the
ignition key.
It lights up to indicate that the passen-
ger air bag will not inflate in the event
of an impact (refer to the information
on “Front passenger air bag deactiva-
tion”).
Operating faults
W

arning 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 light up when the ignition
is switched on or if it flashes, there is a
fault in the system.
Contact your approved dealer as soon
as possible. Your protection will be re-
duced until this fault is rectified.
Driver and passenger air
bags (continued)
Operation
This system is only operational when
the ignition is switched on.
In a severe frontal impact, the air bags
inflate rapidly, cushioning the impact
of the driver’s head and chest against
the steering wheel and of the front pas-
senger against the dashboard. The air
bags then deflate immediately so that
the passengers are not in any way hin-
dered from leaving the vehicle.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (4/5)
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.
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 holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.
– The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel from our Network).
– When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your arms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting
your driving position” in Section 1). 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 holder, etc.) to the dashboard on or near the air bag.
– Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, 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. In
general, parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knee\
s, hands, head, etc.).
–

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.
A CHILD SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS THE
ADDITIONAL

RESTRAINT SYSTEMS, I.E. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG, ARE DEACTIv ATED.

passenger air bag”)

St ARtING/StoPPING thE ENGINE
Never leave your vehi-
cle with the key inside and
never leave a child (or pet)
unsupervised, even for a
short time.
There is a risk that they could start
the engine or operate electrical
equipment (electric windows etc.)
and trap part of their body (neck,
arms, hands, etc.).
Risk of serious injury.
Never switch off the ignition before
the vehicle has stopped completely.
Switching off the engine disables
the assistance equipment: brakes,
steering, etc., and passive safety
equipment such as air bags and
pretensioners.
