Safety
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt on the chest of the occupant, thus
improving their protection.
Operating fault
Rear seat belts (row 2)
The progressive force limiter operates
in identical fashion, except that it takes
into account the build of the driver, thereby
optimising the reduction of the pressure of the
seat belt against the chest, following an impact.
If a fault occurs with the system,
this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by the display of
a message in the instrument panel.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Fastening
Seat belts
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fitted with a single
pyrotechnic pretensioning system (or double
on the driver's side, depending on equipment)
and force limiters (or progressive force
limiters on the driver's side, depending on
equipment).
This system improves safety in the front seats
in the event of a front or side impact.
Depending on the severity of the impact, the
single pyrotechnic pretensioning system
instantly tightens the seat belts against the
body of the occupants.
Outer seats
Depending on equipment, they may be fitted
with a single pretensioning system and force
limiters.
Be sure to put the correct seat belt in the
correct buckle.
Do not interchange the belts or buckles for the
outer seats with the belt or buckle for the centre
seat.
F Pull the strap then insert the tongue in the
buckle.
F Check that the seat belt is fastened
correctly by pulling the strap.
The double pyrotechnic pretensioning system
operates in identical fashion, except that it
combines two anchoring points instead of one,
thereby reinforcing its efficiency.
Unfastening
Centre seat
F Press the red button on the buckle.
F Guide the seat belt as it reels in.
The seat belt does not have a pyrotechnic
pretensioning system and force limiters.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when
the ignition is on.
