METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/4)
Load limiter
Above a certain severity of impact, this
mechanism is used to limit the force of
the belt against the body so that it is at
an acceptable level.
Anti-submarining air bag
Located on each of the front seats, it
deploys in order to prevent the occu-
pant from sliding under the seat belt.
Air bags for driver and front
passenger
Fitted to the driver and passenger side.
Depending on the vehicle, the pres-
ence of this equipment is indicated
by the word “Airbag” on the steering
wheel, dashboard (air bag zone A) and
a symbol on the lower section of the
windscreen.
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;
– remote sensors;
– a single warning light
å on the
instrument panel.
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.

Deactivating the front
passenger airbags
(on equipped vehicles)
You must deactivate certain devices
in addition to the front passenger seat
belt before fitting a child seat in the front
passenger seat. To deactivate the
airbags : when the
vehicle is stationary, push and turn
lock 1 to the OFF position.
With the ignition on, you must check
that the warning light 2
¹ is lit
on the central display and, depend-
ing on the vehicle, that the message
“Passenger airbag off” is displayed.
This light remains permanently lit to
let you know that you can fit a child
seat.
The passenger airbag must
only be deactivated or acti-
vated when the vehicle is
stationary.
If it is interfered with when the ve-
hicle is being driven, indicator lights
å and © will come on.
Switch the ignition off then on again
to reset the airbag in accordance
with the lock position.

DANGER
Since front passenger
airbag triggering and the
position of a rear-facing
child seat are incompatible, NEVER
use a restraining device for rear-
facing children on a seat with an
ACTIVATED AIRBAG in front of it.
This could lead to the DEATH of the
CHILD, or SERIOUS INJURY.
C
The markings on the dashboard and
labels B or C at A on each side of the
passenger sun visor 3 (example: label
shown above) remind you of these in-
structions.

CHILD SAFETY: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag (3/3)

Operating faults
It is prohibited to fit a rear-facing child
seat to the front passenger seat if the
front passenger airbags activation/
deactivation system shows a fault.
Allowing any other passenger to sit in
that seat is not recommended.
If warning lights
› and ¹ are
lit at the same time.
Contact your approved dealer as soon
as possible.
Activating the front
passenger airbags
You should reactivate the airbags as
soon as you remove the child seat from
the front passenger seat to ensure the
protection of the front passenger in the
event of an impact.
To reactivate the airbags : when the
vehicle is stationary, push and turn
lock 1 to position ON.
With the ignition on, it is essential to
check that warning light 4
› is lit
on the central display, and that it goes
out after a few seconds.

to reset the airbag in accordance
with the lock position.
DANGER
Since front passenger
airbag triggering and the
position of a rear-facing

use a restraining device for rear-
facing children on a seat with an
ACTIVATED AIRBAG in front of it.
This could lead to the DEATH of the CHILD, or SERIOUS INJURY.
