Front seat belts with
pre-tensioner and force limiter
Safety in the event of a frontal impact
has been improved by the introduc-
tion of seat belts with pre-tensioner
and force limiter connected to the
front air bags. Depending on the
seriousness of the impact, the pre-
tensioning system instantly tightens
the seat belts firmly against the bod-
ies of the occupants.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are
armed when the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pres-
sure of the seat belt on the body of
the occupant in the event of an acci-
dent.
Rear seat belts with force limiter
The rear seats are all fitted with a
three-point inertia reel seat belt.
Third rear central seat belt
– pull the belt located between the
two head restraints at the left rear,
– insert the fixed buckle in the black
clasp located on the left,
– insert the sliding buckle in the red
and black (movable) clasp.
To release it, press the black button
of the locking clasp.
To be effective, a seat
belt must be tightened as
close to the body as pos-
sible.
Depending on the nature and seri-
ousness of the impact, the pre-
tensioners may be triggered
before and independently of the
air bags.
In all cases, the air bag warning
light comes on.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
The system has been designed to
be fully operational for ten years.
For improved safety, have it
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
within ten years of purchase of the
vehicle.
