Pre-tensioning and
force-limiting front
seat belts
Safety in the event of a frontal impact
has been improved by the introduc-
tion of pre-tensioning and force-limit-
ing front seat belts. Depending on
the seriousness of the impact, the
pre-tensioning system instantly tight-
ens the seat belt firmly against the
body of the occupant.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are
active when the ignition is on.
The force-limiting device reduces the
pressure of the seat belt against the
occupant's body in the event of an
accident.
Rear seat belts
The three rear seats are all fitted with
three-point inertia reel belts.

To be effective, a seat
belt must be tightened as
close to the body as pos-
sible.
Depending on the nature and the
seriousness 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.
Following a collision, have the
system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
The system has been designed to
be fully operational for ten years.
Have it replaced after this period.
