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 se\
at 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 superfi\
cial 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 undersi\
de of the 
vehicle, eg. from pavements, potholes or stones, can all trigger these s\
ystems.
–  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 accidenta\
l 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 o\
f the  gas generator(s).
ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT
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.
1
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.

CHILD SAFETY: General information (1/2)
Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly 
seated and strapped in for all journeys. 
The children being carried in your vehi-
cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children 
are at risk of specific injuries as their 
muscles and bones have not yet fin-
ished growing. The seat belt alone 
would not provide suitable protection. 
Use an approved child seat and ensure 
you use it correctly.
A collision at 30 mph 
(50 km/h) is the same as fall-
ing a distance of 10 metres. 
Transporting a child without 
a restraint is the equivalent of allow-
ing him or her to play on a fourth-
floor balcony without railings.
Never travel with a child held in your 
arms. In the event of an accident, 
you will not be able to keep hold of 
the child, even if you yourself are 
wearing a seat belt.
If your vehicle has been involved in 
a road accident, replace the child 
seat and have the seat belts and 
ISOFIX anchorage points checked.
To prevent the doors being 
opened, use the “Child 
safety” device (refer to the 
information on “Opening 
and closing the doors” in Section 1).
Driver’s responsibility 
when parking or stopping 
the vehicle
Never leave an animal, 
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone on your vehicle, even for 
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves 
or to others by starting the engine, 
activating equipment such as the 
electric windows or by locking the 
doors.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather, 
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.

INJURY.

TRIP COMPUTER:  general information (2/2)
Trip mileage resetting
With “trip mileage recorder” selected on 
the display, press button  1 or 2 until the 
mileage recorder resets to zero.
Resetting the journey 
parameters (reset button)
With one of the journey parameters se-
lected on the display, press button  1 
or 2 until the display resets.
Interpreting some of the 
values displayed after 
resetting
The values showing average fuel con-
sumption, range and average speed 
will become more stable and reliable 
the further you travel after pressing the 
reset button.
For the first few miles after pressing the 
reset button you may notice:
–  that the range increases as you  travel. This range takes into account 
the average fuel consumption since 
the last time the reset button was 
pressed. Therefore, the average fuel 
consumption may decrease when:
 –   the vehicle has just stopped ac-
celerating;
 –   the engine reaches its operat-
ing temperature (if the engine 
was cold when the reset key was 
pressed);
 –   when driving from an urban area 
onto the open road.
Automatic resetting of the 
journey parameters
Resetting occurs automatically when 
the maximum value of any of the pa-
rameters is exceeded.1
