has been improved by means of the

seats. Depending on the force of the
impact, the pretensioning system
instantly tightens the seat belts and
pulls them against the body of the oc-
cupants.

SAFETY

Wherever you are seated in
the vehicle, always fasten
your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
In order to be effective, a seat belt:
- must be tightened as close to the
body as possible,
- must restrain one adult only,
- must not bear any trace of cuts or
fraying,
- must be pulled in front of you with a
smooth movement, checking that it
does not twist,
- must not be transformed or modi-
fied to avoid altering its perform-
ance.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, all repairs and checks
must be carried out by a PEUGEOT
dealer who guarantees that the work
is carried out correctly.
Have your seat belts checked regu-
larly by a PEUGEOT dealer and par-
ticularly if the straps show signs of
damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and rolled up correctly.
Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one metre fifty,
- do not use the strap-guide* when a
child seat is installed.
Do not invert the seat belt
buckles as they will not fulfil their role
fully.
If the seats have armrests*, the lap
part of the seat belt must always
pass under the armrest.
The seat belts are fitted with an in-
ertia reel permitting automatic adjust-
ment of the length of the strap to your
size. The seat belt is stored automat-
ically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is rolled up correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in
the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fitted with an au-
tomatic locking device which comes
into operation in the event of a colli-
sion, on emergency braking or if the
vehicle rolls over. You can release
the device by pulling rapidly on the
strap and releasing it.
- never use the same seat belt to se-
cure more than one person,
- never allow a child to travel on your
lap.
Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impacts, the pre-
tensioning device may be triggered
before and independently of the air
bags. Triggering of the pre-tension-
ers is accompanied by a slight emis-
sion of harmless smoke and a noise,
due to the activation of the pyrotech-
nic cartridge incorporated in the sys-
tem.
In all cases, the air bag warning light
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a PEUGEOT deal-
er.
