Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly by pulling the strap.
Depending on the nature and seriousness of any impact, the pretensioning device may be triggered before and independently of inflation of the air bags. It instantly tightens the seat belts against the body of the occupants. The force limiter reduces the pressure of the seat belt against the body of the occupants. The equipment fitted to these seat belts is operational when the ignition is switched on.
Air bags 82 Air bags 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 air bag will not operate. The triggering of an air bag or air bags 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.
Operating fault 83 Air bags If this warning light comes on on the instrument panel, consult a CITROËN dealer without delay to have the system checked. The air bags may no longer be triggered in the event of a serious impact. SIDE AIR BAGS Activation In the event of a minor impact or bump on the side of the vehicle or if the vehicle rolls over, the air bag may not be triggered.
Sit in a normal upright position. Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt. Do not leave anything between the occupants and the air bags (a child, pet, object...). This could hamper the operation of the air bags or injure the occupants. After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen or broken into, have the air bag systems checked. All work on the air bag systems is strictly forbidden unless it is carried out by the qualified personnel of a CITROËN dealer.

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC. Driving advice A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in neutral. Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope increases the coolant temperature. As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependent on the engine speed. On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the engine speed and reduce your speed. In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature.
94 Towing a trailer In certain cases of particularly arduous use (towing the maximum load up a steep slope in high temperatures), the engine automatically limits its power. In this case, the automatic cutting off of the air conditioning allows the engine power to be recovered. If the coolant temperature warning light comes on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible. See the “Levels” section of chapter 7.
A wide range of accessories and original parts is offered by the CITROËN network. These accessories and parts, having been tested and approved for reliability and safety, are all adapted to your vehicle. They all benefit from CITROËN’s recommendation and warranty.
