Replacement of the pyrotechnic systems
associated with the airbags
They must be replaced following a deployment, this
preferably by a CITROËN dealer or by an authorised
repairer.
By reason of the safety regulations in force, any check
or any replacement should preferably be carried out
by the CITROËN network which guarantees the work
and ensures that it is done correctly.
Any repair that is not done in strict compliance with
the requirements could result in the systems operating
incorrectly or randomly, with the risk of bodily injuries
being caused..

remains on.
