Locking
Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly
and ensure that buckle 3 locks into
catch 5 (check that it is locked by pull- ing on buckle 3).
If the belt jams, allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If your seat belt is completely jammed,
pull slowly, but firmly so that just over
3 cm unwinds. Allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If there is still a problem, contact an ap-
proved dealer.
Seat with armrest(s)
Ensure the seat belt is passed under-
neath armrest 6, check that buckle 3 is
fastened in catch 5.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/3)
Driver and passenger front
airbags
It is fitted to the front seats on the driv-
er’s side and, depending on the vehicle,
on the passenger’s side as well.
Depending on the vehicle, an “air bag”
marking on the steering wheel and the
dashboard (air bag area A) indicates
that this device is fitted.
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;
– an electronic unit for system monitor- ing which controls the gas generator
electrical trigger system;
– a special
å tell-tale light;
– remote sensors. Operation
This system is only operational when
the ignition is switched on.
If a severe frontal impact occurs, the
air bag(s) inflate rapidly, thus cushion-
ing the impact of the driver’s head and
chest on the steering wheel and those
of the passenger on the dashboard;
the air bag(s) then deflate immediately
after the impact to prevent the occu-
pants from being impeded in any way
when leaving the vehicle.
A
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.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (3/3)
All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructe\
d in any way when it is deployed and also to pre-
vent the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged\
when the air bag deploys.
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 f\
rom 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, umb\
rella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
– The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as t\
here 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 react\
ivated 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 DEACTIVATED.
(refer to the information on “Child safety: deactivating/activating \
the front passenger air bag” in Section 1)

ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT
Operating faults
Indicator light 1, å, lights up when
the ignition is switched on and goes out
after a few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition
is switched on, or comes on when the
engine is running, 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.
1
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. Shocks to the underbod\
y of the
vehicle, e.g. 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 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 driver’s handbook with the vehicle.
– When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved dealer for disposal o\
f the gas generator(s).
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: fitting a child seat: general information (1/2)
Some seats are not suitable for fitting
child seats. The diagrams on the fol-
lowing pages show you how to attach
a child seat.
The types of child seats indicated may
not be available. Before using a differ-
ent child seat, check with the manufac-
turer that it can be fitted.
Fit the child seat in a rear
seat wherever possible.
Check that when installing
the child seat in the vehicle
it is not at risk of coming loose from
its base.
If you have to remove the headrest,
check that it is correctly stored so
that it does not come loose under
harsh braking or impact.
Always attach the child seat to the
vehicle even if it is not in use so that
it does not come loose under harsh
braking or impact.
Front seats
The laws concerning children travel-
ling in the front passenger seat differ in
every country. Consult the legislation in
force and follow the indications on the
diagrams on the following pages.
Before fitting a child seat in this seat (if
authorised):
– lower the seat belt as far as possible;
– on equipped vehicles, push the seat back as far as possible;
– on equipped vehicles, tilt the seat- back slightly (approximately 25°);
– on equipped vehicles, raise the seat base as far as possible.
Do not change these settings after the
child seat is installed.
RISK OF DEATH OR
SERIOUS INJURY: before
installing a child seat on the
front passenger seat, check
that the air bag has been deacti-
vated (refer to "Child safety: front
passenger air bag deactivation/acti-
vation" Section 1).

The passenger air bag must
only be deactivated or acti-
vated when the vehicle
is stationary. If it is inter-
fered with when the vehicle is being
driven, indicator lights
å and
© will come on. Switch the ig-
nition off then on again to reset the
air bag in accordance with the lock
position.
1DANGER
Since operation of the front
passenger airbag is not
compatible with the position
of a rear-facing child seat, NEVER
fit a restraint system for a rear-fac-
ing child in a seat protected by an
ACTIVATED front AIRBAG . This
can cause the CHILD’S DEATH or
SERIOUS INJURY.
