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 vehi-
cle 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.

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 ins-
tructions.
DANGER
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.

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.

The passenger airbag must
only be deactivated or acti-
vated when the vehicle is
stationary.
If it is interfered with when the vehi-
cle 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 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.

1.53
Operating faults
The steering may become stiff when
driving or when the steering wheel is
turned repeatedly. This is due to the
power assistance overheating. In this
case, it must be allowed to cool down.Power-assisted steering
Variable power-assisted steering
The variable power-assisted steering
system is equipped with an electronic
control system which alters the level of
assistance to suit the vehicle speed.
Steering is made easier during parking
manoeuvres (for added comfort) whilst
the force needed to steer increases
progressively as the speed rises (for
enhanced safety at high speeds).
STEERING WHEEL/POWER-ASSISTED STEERING
Height and reach adjustment
Pull lever 1 and move the steering
wheel to the required position.
Then, push the lever back fully, beyond
the point of resistance to lock the steer-
ing wheel.
Make sure that the steering wheel is
correctly locked.
For safety reasons, only
adjust the steering wheel
when the vehicle is station-
ary.
Never leave the steering wheel at
full lock while stationary.
1
Never switch off the igni-
tion when travelling down-
hill, and avoid doing so in
normal driving (assistance
is not provided).
With the engine switched off, or if
there is a system fault, it is still pos-
sible to turn the steering wheel. The
force required will be greater.
