SEAT BELTS (3/3) The following information applies to the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts. – No modification may be made to the component parts of the restraint system (belts and seats and their mountings) fitted originally. For special operations (e.g. fitting child seats) contact an approved Dealer. 6 – Do not use devices which allow any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too loosely may cause injury in the event of an accident.
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (1/4) Depending on the vehicle, they are composed of: – seat belt inertia reel pretensioners; – Have the entire restraint system checked following an accident. – No operation whatsoever 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.
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 occupant from sliding under the seat belt. Air bags for driver and front passenger Fitted to the driver and passenger side.
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (3/4) Operation This system is only operational when the ignition is switched on. In a severe frontal impact, the air bags inflate rapidly, cushioning the impact of the driver’s head and chest against the steering wheel and the front passenger against the dashboard. The air bags then deflate immediately so that the passengers are not in any way hindered from leaving the vehicle.
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (4/4) 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. Warnings concerning the driver’s air bag – Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss. – Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.
Methods of restraint in addition to the rear seat belts Force 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. – Have the entire restraint system checked following an accident. – No operation whatsoever is permitted on any part of the system (air bags, electronic control units, wiring) and the system components must not be reused on any other vehicle, even if identical.
Side protection devices Side air bags These air bags are fitted to the front seats and are activated at the sides of the seats (door side) to protect the occupants in the event of a severe side impact. Curtain air bags These are air bags fitted along the sides of the vehicle in the ceiling which trigger along the front and rear side windows to protect the passengers in case of a severe side impact.
Additional methods of restraint 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. 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.
Child safety: General information (1/2) Carrying children Children, and adults, must be correctly seated and strapped in for all journeys. The children being carried in your vehicle are your responsibility. A child is not a miniature adult. Children are at risk of specific injuries as their muscles and bones have not yet finished growing. The seat belt alone would not provide suitable protection. Use an approved child seat and ensure you use it correctly.
Child safety: General information (2/2) Using a child seat The level of protection offered by the child seat depends on its ability to restrain your child and on its installation. Incorrect installation compromises the protection it offers the child in the event of harsh braking or an impact. Before purchasing a child seat, check that it complies with the regulations for the country you are in and that it can be fitted in your vehicle.
Child safety: Choosing a child seat Rear-facing child seats A baby’s head is, proportionally, heavier than that of an adult and its neck is very fragile. Transport the child in this position as long as possible (until the age of 2 at the very least). It supports both the head and the neck. Choose a bucket type seat for best side protection and change it as soon as the child’s head is higher than the shell. 1.34 Forward-facing child seats The child’s head and abdomen need to be protected as a priority.
child safety: choosing a child/baby seat mounting (1/2) There are two ways of attaching child seats: via the seat belt or using the ISOFIX system. Attachment via the seat belt The seat belt must be adjusted to ensure that it is effective in the event of harsh braking or an impact. Ensure that the strap paths indicated by the child seat manufacturer are respected. Always check that the seat belt is correctly fastened by pulling it up, then pulling it out fully whilst pressing on the child seat.
child safety: choosing a child/baby seat mounting (2/2) The ISOFIX anchorage points have been exclusively designed for child seats with the ISOFIX system. Never fit a different type of child seat, seat belt or other objects to these anchorage points. 1 2 The two rings 1 are located between the seatback and the seat base of the seat and are identified by a marking. To ensure your child seat can be easily fitted and locked on rings 1, use access guides 2 on the child seat.
Child safety: Fitting a child seat (1/6) Some seats are not suitable for fitting child seats. The diagram on the following page shows you how to attach a child seat. The types of child seats indicated may not be available. Before using a different child seat, check with the manufacturer that it can be fitted. Fit the child seat in a rear seat wherever possible. Check that when installing the child seat in the vehicle it is not at risk of coming loose from its base.

Puncture, emergency spare wheel In the event of a puncture, depending on the vehicle, you will have: An emergency spare wheel or tyre inflation kit (refer to the information on the following pages). 1 Emergency spare wheel Special note: The Tyre Pressure Monitor function does not check the emergency spare wheel (the wheel replaced by the emergency spare wheel disappears from the instrument panel display). Refer to the information on the “Tyre pressure monitor” in Section 2.
TYRE PRESSURE KIT (1/3) A B Do not attempt to use the inflation kit if the tyre has been damaged as a result of driving with a puncture. The kit is only approved for inflating the tyres of the vehicle originally equipped with the kit. You should therefore carefully check the condition of the tyre sidewalls before any operation. It must never be used to inflate the tyres of another vehicle, or any other inflatable object (rubber ring, rubber boat, etc.).
TYRE PRESSURE KIT (2/3) 1 2 3 Depending on the vehicle, in the event of a puncture, use the kit located underneath the luggage compartment carpet. 4 Depending on the vehicle, remove the central partition in the storage compartment to access the inflation kit. 5 Open the kit, remove caps 1 and 3 (the cap must not be removed from the bottle) then screw bottle 2 to its base 3.
TYRE PRESSURE KIT (3/3) – affix driving recommendation label 9 to the dashboard where it can easily be seen by the driver; – store the kit; 9 8 Once the tyre is inflated correctly: – stop using the kit; – close the integrated cap on the bottle again; – disconnect adapter 8; Nothing should be placed around the driver’s feet as such objects may slide under the pedals during sudden braking manoeuvres and obstruct their use.
TOOL KIT/WHEEL TRIM – WHEEL Wheelbrace 1 2 Jack 2 When replacing the jack, fold it correctly and position the wheelbrace correctly before replacing it in its position. 1 3 4 5 The tool kit is located in the luggage compartment: lift the carpet. Hubcap tool 3 This tool is used to remove the wheel trims. Wheel bolt guide 4 To finish loosening or starting to tighten the wheel bolts. Towing hitch 5 Refer to the information on “Towing” in Section 5. The tools included in the tool kit depend on the vehicle.
Changing a wheel (1/2) 3 Vehicles equipped with a jack and wheelbrace If necessary, remove the wheel trim. 1 2 Use the wheelbrace 3 to slacken off the wheel bolts. Position it so as to be able to push from above. Offer up the jack 4 horizontally; the jack head must be lined up with jacking point 1 located on the underside of the sill, closest to the wheel concerned, as shown by arrow 2. Start cranking the jack up by hand to align the base plate (which should be pushed slightly under the vehicle).
CHANGING A WHEEL (2/2) Undo the bolts and take off the wheel. Fit the emergency spare wheel onto the hub and rotate it until the mounting holes in the wheel coincide with those of the hub. If bolts are supplied with the emergency spare wheel, only use these bolts for the emergency spare wheel. Tighten the bolts, checking that the wheel is correctly positioned on its hub and lower the jack.
Tyres (1/3) Tyre and wheel safety The tyres are the only contact between the vehicle and the road, so it is essential to keep them in good condition. You must make sure that your tyres conform to local road traffic regulations. 2 1 When the tyre tread has been worn to the level of the wear indicators, they become visible 2: it is then necessary to replace your tyres because the tread rubber is no more than 1.6 mm deep, resulting in poor roadholding on wet roads.
Tyres (2/3) Tyre pressures Adhere to the tyre pressures (including the emergency spare wheel). The tyre pressures should be checked at least once a month and additionally before any long journey (refer to the label affixed to the edge of the driver’s door). Pressures should be checked when the tyres are cold; ignore higher pressures which may be reached in hot weather or following a fast journey. If tyre pressures cannot be checked when the tyres are cold, the normal pressures must be increased by 0.
Tyres (3/3) Use in winter Chains For safety reasons, fitting snow chains to the rear axle is strictly forbidden. Chains cannot be fitted to tyres which are larger than those originally fitted to the vehicle. In all cases, we would recommend that you contact an approved dealer who will be able to advise you on the choice of equipment which is most suitable for your vehicle. Snow or Winter tyres We would recommend that these be fitted to all four wheels to ensure that your vehicle retains maximum adhesion.
