Deactivating The Passenger's Airbag; Deployment; Front Airbags; Deactivation - CITROEN BERLINGO Owner's Handbook Manual

Front airbags

The front airbags are fi tted in the
centre of the steering wheel for the
driver and in the dashboard for the
front passenger.

Deployment

They are deployed simultaneously,
unless the passenger's front airbag
has been deactivated, in the event of
a serious front impact applied to all or
part of the front impact zone A in the
longitudinal centreline of the vehicle
on a horizontal plane directed from the
front towards the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag infl ates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
dashboard to cushion their forward
movement.

Deactivation

Only the passenger's front airbag can
be deactivated:
- With the ignition switched off ,
insert the key into the passenger's
airbag deactivation switch,
- turn it to the off "OFF" position,
- then remove the key, keeping the
switch in the new position.
The airbag warning lamp in the
instrument panel is on while
the airbag is deactivated.
To ensure the safety of your child,
it is essential to deactivate the
passenger's 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 infl ate.

Reactivation

In the "OFF" position, the passenger's
airbag will not be deployed in the event of
an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed, turn
the airbag switch to the "ON" position to re-
activate the airbag and so ensure the safety
of your passenger in the event of an impact.
