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 inflate instantly and protect the
occupants of the vehicle. Immediately
after the impact, the airbags deflate
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 sufficient 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 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 5.

Airbags

SIDE AIRBAGS

Activation

It is triggered unilaterally in the event of a
serious side impact, 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 inflates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
corresponding door trim pad.

In the event of a minor impact or bump
on the side of the vehicle or if the

vehicle rolls over, the airbag may not be
triggered.

Operating fault

If this warning light comes on on
the instrument panel, consult a
CITROËN dealer without delay
to have the system checked.
The airbags may no longer be
triggered in the event of a serious
impact.

Airbags

For the airbags to be fully effective,
observe the following safety rules:

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 systems is strictly
forbidden unless it is carried out by the
qualified personnel of a CITROËN dealer .
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are
observed, a risk of injury or of slight burns
to the head, chest or arms when an airbag
is triggered cannot be ruled out. In fact,
the bag inflates almost instantly (within a
few milliseconds) then deflates within the
same time, discharging the hot gas through
openings provided for this purpose.

Front airbags

Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by its spokes or resting your hands on the
centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the
fascia.
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.

Side airbags

Only put approved covers on the seats.
These will not hinder the triggering of the
side airbags. Consult a CITROËN dealer .
Do not fix or glue anything to the seat backs.
This could cause injury to the chest or arms
when the side airbag inflates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.

AIRBAGS

- 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 sufficient 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 only operate when the
ignition is switched on.

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 5.

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.
The front airbag inflates 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. The airbag is disarmed from the
trip computer.

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

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 inflate.

Refer to the "MENU" section of
chapter 3, then select OFF on the
"Passenger airbag" menu.

Operating fault

If the two airbag warning lights are lit
continuously, do not install a rear-

facing child seat. Consult a CITROËN
dealer .

If this warning light comes
on on the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the display,

consult a CITROËN dealer without delay
to have the system checked. The airbags
may no longer be triggered in the event of a
serious impact.

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:
- in accordance with European regulations,

all children under the age of 12 or less
than one metre fifty tall must travel in
approved child seats suited to their
weight , on seats fitted 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 in the front.

  CITROËN    recommends  that children
should travel in the  rear seats  of your
vehicle:
   -    "rearwards-facing"   up to the age of 2 ,

- "forwards-facing"from the age of 2.

INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT USING A THREE POINT SEAT BELT

"Rearwards-facing"

Do not forget to disarm the airbag
before installing the child.
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
inflate .

"Forwards-facing"

When a "forwards-facing" child
seat is installed on the front
passenger seat , leave the
passenger airbag armed.

The rules for transporting children are
specific to each country. Consult the current
legislation in your country.

Please consult the list of seats
approved in your country. The Isofix

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

Child safety

To disarm or activate the passenger
airbag, refer to Chapter 3, "MENU".

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS

Installing a booster seat

The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
CITROËN recommends the use of a booster
seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt
guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and

unsupervised in a vehicle,

- a child or an animal in a vehicle which

is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,

- the keys within reach of children inside

the vehicle.

To prevent accidental opening of the doors,
use the "Child lock".

Children under the age of 10 must not travel
in the "forward facing" position on the front
passenger seat, unless the rear seats are
already occupied by other children, cannot
be used or are absent.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag when a
"rear facing" child seat is installed on the
front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were
to inflate.

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses keeping the slack in
relation to the child's body to a minimum ,
even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the "forward
facing" child seat, ensure that the back of
the child seat is in contact with the back of
the vehicle's seat and that the head restraint
does not cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be removed,
ensure that it is stored or attached securely
to prevent it from being thrown around the
vehicle in the event of sharp braking.

To protect young children from the sun, fit
side blinds on the rear windows.

Child safety

"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS

Some also have an upper strap which is
attached to the rear ring.
To attach this strap, raise the vehicle seat's
head restraint then pass the hook between
its rods. Then fix the hook on the rear ring
and tighten the upper strap.

Towing a trailer

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, ETC...

Driving advice

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.

A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in
neutral.
Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
