Locking the doors with the
tailgate open
To lock the vehicle leaving a door open
(e.g. when transporting something in
the luggage compartment which pre-
vents it from being closed), or when
the vehicle is located in a zone of high
electromagnetic radiation, or if the key
is faulty: with the engine switched off,
press and hold switch 1 for more than
five seconds.
Locking the opening
elements without the remote
control
With the engine off, the rear doors
closed and a front door open, press
switch 1 for more than five seconds.
Make sure you have your key with you
before you leave your vehicle.

side the vehicle is only possible with the
key or the remote control.
Doors and tailgate status
indicator light
When the ignition is on, the indicator
light integrated in switch 1 informs you
of the status of the doors and tailgate:
– indicator light on, the doors and tail- gate are locked;
– light off, the doors and tailgate are unlocked.
When the ignition is off, the indicator
light remains lit and then goes out when
you lock the doors.

Operating principle
When the engine is started, the system
automatically locks the doors when the
vehicle reaches a speed of approxi-
mately 4 mph (7 km/h).
Operating faults
If you notice an operating fault (auto-
matic locking impossible), first check
that all doors are correctly locked. If
they are correctly locked and the fault
is still present, contact an approved
Dealer.
Also make sure that locking has not
been inadvertently deactivated.
If it has, switch the ignition off and on
again and reactivate it.

1.28
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (1/3)
Depending on the vehicle, they are
composed of:
– seat belt pretensioners;
– chest-level load limiters;
– air bags for driver and front pas-senger.
These systems are designed to act in-
dependently or together when the vehi-
cle is subjected to a frontal impact.
Depending on the severity of the
impact, the system can trigger:
– seat belt locking;
– the seat belt seat belt pretensioner to hold the occupant in the seat, and
the force limiter;
– the front air bag.– Have the entire restraint
system checked following
an accident.
– No operation whatso-
ever is permitted on any part of
the system (pretensioners, air
bags, computers, wiring) and the
system components must not
be reused on any other vehicle,
even if identical.
– To avoid incorrect triggering of the system which may cause
injury, only qualified personnel
from an approved dealer may
work on the pretensioner and air
bag system.
– The electric trigger system may only be tested by a specially
trained technician using special
equipment.
– When the vehicle is scrapped, contact an approved dealer for
disposal of the pretensioner and
air bag gas generators.
The passenger air bag protects the
front passenger(s) (depending on
whether there is a conventional seat
or a bench seat in the front).
PretensionersThe pretensioners hold the seat belt
against the body, holding the occupant
more securely against the seat, thus in-
creasing the seat belt’s efficiency.
With the ignition switched on, if the
vehicle is subject to a significant fron-
tal impact the system may, depending
on the severity of the impact, trigger a
piston which instantly retracts the belt.
Load limiterAbove 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.

1.29
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.

1.32
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.
