SEAT BELTS

Height adjustment

Squeeze the control with the return and
slide the assembly on the driver's seat
side and on the individual passenger
seat side.

Fastening

Pull the strap, then insert the tongue
into the buckle.
Check that the seat belt is fastened
correctly by pulling the strap.

Driver's seat belt not fastened
warning light

Unfastening

Press the red button.

When the vehicle is started,
this warning light comes on if
the driver has not fastened his
seat belt.

Good practice

The driver must ensure that
passengers use the seat belts correctly
and that they are all strapped in
securely before moving off.
Wherever you are seated in the
vehicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
The seat belts are ﬁ tted with an inertia

reel which automatically adjusts the
length of the strap to your size.
Do not use accessories (clothes pegs,

clips, safety pins, etc.) which permit a
clearance with the seat belt straps.
Ensure that the seat belt is rolled up
correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is
rolled up correctly and that the buckle
is ready to accommodate the tongue.
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of any impact, the
pretensioning device may be triggered

before and independently of inﬂ ation

of the airbags. It instantly tightens
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
Triggering of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.

Seat belts

Recommendations for children:
-

use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years old

or shorter than one metre ﬁ fty,

never allow a child to travel on
your lap, even with the seat belt
fastened.

For further information regarding
child seats, refer to the "Children
on board" section of chapter 4.

Clean the seat belt straps with
soapy water or a textile cleaning
product, sold by CITROËN
dealers.

In accordance with current safety
regulations, your CITROËN dealer
guarantees all work or any checks,
from testing to maintenance, on your
seat belt equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly

(even after a minor impact) by a

CITROËN dealer: they must not show

any signs of wear, cutting or fraying
and they must not be transformed or

modiﬁ ed.

The force limiter reduces the pressure
of the seat belt against the body of the
occupants.

The pretensioning seat belts are active
when the ignition is switched on.
The inertia reels are ﬁ tted with a device

which automatically locks the strap in
the event of a collision or emergency
braking or if the vehicle rolls over.
You can unfasten the seat belt by
pressing the red button on the buckle.
Guide the seat belt after unfastening.
The airbag warning light comes on
if the pretensioners are triggered.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
In order to be effective, a seat belt

must:
-

restrain one person only,

must not be twisted, check by
pulling in front of you with an even
movement,

be tightened as close to the body
as possible.

The upper part of the seat belt
should be positioned in the hollow of
the shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low
as possible on the pelvis.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as

they will not fulﬁ l their role completely.

If the seats are ﬁ tted with armrests, the

lap part of the seat belt should always
pass under the armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened

correctly by pulling the strap ﬁ rmly.

Front seat belts

The front seats are ﬁ tted with

pretensioners and force limiters.

Rear seat belts

Airbags

AIRBAGS

The airbags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
in the event of a serious collision;
they work in conjunction with the force
limiting seat belts.

In the event of a serious collision, the
electronic detectors record and analyse
the front and side impacts suffered in

the impact detection zones:
-

in the event of a serious impact, the

airbags inﬂ ate instantly and protect

the occupants of the vehicle.
Immediately after the impact, the

airbags deﬂ ate rapidly, so that they

do not hinder the visibility of the
occupants nor their possible exit
from the vehicle.

in the event of a minor or rear
impact and in certain roll-over
conditions, the airbags will not
be deployed; the seat belt alone

is sufﬁ cient to provide maximum

protection in these situations.

The seriousness of the collision
depends on the nature of the obstacle
and the speed of the vehicle at the
moment of impact.

Airbags

Good practice

Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the

occupants and the airbags (a child,

pet, object...). This could hamper the
operation of the airbags or injure the
occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has
been stolen or broken into, have the
airbag systems checked.
All work on the airbag system is strictly
forbidden unless it is carried out by

qualiﬁ ed personnel of the CITROËN

network.
Even if all of the precautions
mentioned are observed, a risk of
injury or of minor burns to the head,
chest or arms when an airbag is
triggered cannot be ruled out. In fact,

the bag inﬂ ates almost instantly (within

a few milliseconds) then deﬂ ates within

the same time discharging the hot gas
via openings provided for this purpose.

Side airbags
Only put recommended covers on the

seats. These will not hinder inﬂ ation of

the side airbags. Consult a CITROËN
dealer.
Do not ﬁ x or glue anything to the seat

backs. This could cause injury to the
chest or arms when the side airbag

inﬂ ates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the
body any nearer to the door than
necessary.

Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by its spokes or resting your hands on
the centre part of the wheel.
Do not allow passengers to place their
feet on the fascia, they risk serious
injury if the airbag is triggered.
Smoke as little as possible as
deployment of the airbags can cause
burns or the risk of injury from a
cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering
wheel or hit it violently.

Airbags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.

This equipment only operates once.

If a second impact occurs (during the

same or a subsequent accident), the
airbag will not operate.
The triggering of an airbag or airbags
is accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but
sensitive individuals may experience
some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time.

It is imperative that the passenger
airbag is disarmed if a child seat is
installed facing rearwards. Refer

to the "Children on board" section of
chapter 4.

Airbags

Front airbags

The front airbags are incorporated in
the centre of the steering wheel for the
driver and in the fascia for the front
passenger.

Activation
They are deployed simultaneously,
unless the passenger's front airbag
has been disarmed, in the event of a
serious front impact applied to all or
part of the front impact zone A in the
longitudinal centreline of the vehicle
on a horizontal plane directed from the
front towards the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag inﬂ ates between

the front occupant of the vehicle and
the fascia to cushion his forward
movement.

Disarming
The passenger's front airbag alone can

be disarmed:
-

With the ignition switched off ,
insert the key into the passenger
airbag disarming switch,

turn it to the off "OFF" position,

then remove the key keeping the
slot in this position.

The airbag warning light on the
instrument panel is lit throughout
the period of disarming.

If the two airbag warning lights
are lit continuously, do not install
a rear-facing child seat. Consult a
CITROËN dealer.

Front airbag fault

To ensure the safety of your
child, it is essential to disarm the
passenger airbag when you install

a rear-facing child seat on the front
passenger seat. Otherwise, the child
would risk being killed or seriously

injured if the airbag were to inﬂ ate.

Reactivation
In the "OFF" position, the passenger
airbag will not be triggered in the event
of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
turn the airbag slot to the "ON"
position to re-activate the airbag
and thus ensure the safety of your
passenger in the event of an impact.

If this warning light comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the
display, consult a CITROËN
dealer to have the system
checked.

Curtain airbags

This is a system which protects the

driver and passengers (with the

exception of the centre seat of row 2)
in the event of a serious side impact in
order to limit the risk of head injuries.
Each curtain airbag is incorporated in
the pillars and the upper part of the
passenger compartment.

Activation
It is triggered at the same time as the
corresponding side airbag in the event
of a serious side impact applied to
all or part of the side impact zone B ,
perpendicular to the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal
plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The curtain airbag inﬂ ates between the

front or rear occupant of the vehicle
and the windows.

Side airbags

This is a system which protects the
driver and front passenger in the event
of a serious side impact in order to limit
the risk of injury to the chest.
Each side airbag is incorporated in the
front seat back frame, on the door side.

Activation
It is triggered unilaterally in the event
of a serious side impact applied to
all or part of the side impact zone B ,
perpendicular to the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal
plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The side airbag inﬂ ates between the

front occupant of the vehicle and the
corresponding door trim pad.

Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.

Child safety

GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS

Although one of CITROËN's main
criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also
depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow

these precautions:
-

all children under the age of 12 or

less than one metre ﬁ fty tall must

travel in approved child seats suited

to their weight, on seats ﬁ tted with

a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings.

statistically, the safest seats in your
vehicle for the transportation of
children are the rear seats,

a child weighing less than 9 kg
must travel in the "rearwards-
facing" position both in the front
and in the rear,

the passenger must not travel with
a child on his lap.

CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT

"Rearwards-facing"
Recommended on the rear seats up to
the age of 2.
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, it
is essential that the passenger airbag
is disarmed. Otherwise, the child would
risk being seriously injured or killed if

the airbag were to inﬂ ate.

"Forwards-facing"
Recommended on the rear seats over
the age of 2.
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat,
leave the passenger airbag armed.

The rules for carrying children are

speciﬁ c to each country. Consult

the current legislation in your
country.

Please consult the list of seats

approved in your country. The Isoﬁ x

mountings, the rear seats, the
passenger airbag and the deactivation
of this airbag depend on the version
sold.

Child safety

Refer to chapter 4, "Airbags"
section.

The child seats function and
the passenger airbag disarming
function are common to the entire
