Special notes
To remove the battery, slacken mounting (A).
80
It is vital :
• to ensure that there is no sulphation on the
terminals,
• to clean and grease the terminals if necessary,
• to check that the nuts are correctly tightened
on the terminals. Incorrect contact could cause
starting faults or charging faults which could
cause sparks, making the battery liable to
explode,
• to check the electrolyte level.
Batteries with sets of removable plugs:
• remove the cover by hand or by using a tool
(stiff spatula),
• check that the electrolyte level in all the cells is
well above the level of the separators,
• if necessary, use demineralised water to top up
the level.
Note: certain types of battery have translucent
bodies which allow the level of the electrolyte to
be seen.
Never add electrolyte or other products to the
battery.
A - CHECKING
Check and ensure that:
•
the battery tray and cover are not cracked or
split,
• the top of the battery is clean,
• the terminals are in good condition.

PRECAUTIONS
It should be remembered that a battery:
• contains sulphuric acid, which is a dangerous
product,
• produces oxygen and hydrogen during
charging. The mixture of these two gases
forms a detonating gas , hence the risk of an
explosion.
1) DANGER = ACID
The sulphuric acid solution is a highly aggressive,
toxic and corrosive product. It attacks skin,
clothing, concrete and corrodes most metals.
It is also very important, when handling a battery,
to take the following precautions:
• to protect your eyes with goggles,
• to wear anti-acid gloves and clothing.
If acid splashes on to your clothing, rinse all the
contaminated areas thoroughly in water. If your
eyes are affected, consult a doctor.
2) DANGER = RISK OF EXPLOSION
When a battery is charging (either in a vehicle or
elsewhere), oxygen and hydrogen are produced.
Gas production is at a maximum when the battery
is completely charged and the quantity of gas
produced is proportional to the intensity of the
charging current.
The oxygen and the hydrogen join together in the
open air, on the surface of the plates and form a
highly explosive mixture.
The smallest of sparks, a cigarette or a recently
extinguished match are sufficient to cause an
explosion. The explosion is so strong that the
battery can shatter and the acid is dispersed into
the surrounding atmosphere. People nearby are
at risk (shattered casing parts, acid splashes). The
acid splashes are harmful to the eyes, face and
hands. They also attack clothing.
Safeguarding against the danger of explosion,
which can be caused by a poorly handled battery,
must be taken very seriously. Avoid all risks of
sparks.
• Check that the "consumers" are switched off,
before disconnecting or reconnecting a
battery.
• When a battery is being charged in a room,
switch off the charger before connecting or
disconnecting the battery.
• Do not put any metallic items onto the battery
so as not to cause a short circuit across the
terminals.
• Never place a naked flame, a welding torch,
hot air gun, a cigarette or a lighted match near
to a battery.

IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
GENERAL
The immobiliser is controlled by a key recognition
system (known as coded key immobiliser system).
An independently operating coded chip without a
battery is integrated into each head of the vehicle
keys.
When the ignition is switched on, an antenna ring
around the ignition switch interrogates and cap-
tures the code from the head of the key and trans-
mits it to the decoder unit.
If the decoder unit recognises the code, the vehi-
cle will be permitted to be started.
The immobiliser is activated a few seconds after
the key is withdrawn from the ignition and this is
shown by the flashing of the red immobiliser war-
ning light on the instrument panel.
If there is a fault in the key recognition system, a
security code may be entered using the XR25 only.
This code may be communicated to the repair
agent (on his request) by the local assistance net-
work (depending on country, for example: Delta
Assistance on 0800.05.15.15 for France, NVSR for
the UK by fax only).
IMPORTANT:
The repair agent must inform the
customer that the immobiliser system will reset it-
self automatically 10 minutes after switching the
ignition off.
82
N O T E S
This system may be fitted to petrol or diesel vehi-
cles.
Petrol vehicles
: the immobiliser function is carried
out by the injection computer.
Diesel vehicles
: the immobiliser function is carried
out by the coded solenoid valve (on the injection
pump).
If the vehicle is fitted with a remote control for
door locking, a single decoder unit carries out
both functions (immobiliser and remote control).
The remote control has no effect on the immobili-
ser system (see section 88).
On these vehicles, the identification number of
the key heads contains eight alphanumeric cha-
racters, beginning with the letter E or A.

ment panel used to :
- indicate activation of the engine immobiliser
system,
- signal a fault in the system for vehicles with a
coded solenoid valve (diesel) or non-
recognition of the key,
- signal entry into the door locking remote
control resynchronisation mode (depending
on equipment).
• An injection warning light (petrol vehicle)
which indicates a fault in the:
- injection,
- engine immobiliser system when the engine
is running (flashes during deceleration and
at idle speed).

IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
OPERATION
When the immobiliser system is activated (ap-
proximately 10 seconds after cutting + after igni-
tion feed), the red immobiliser warning light
flashes (slow flashing; 1 flash / second).
After switching the ignition on, the antenna ring
analyses the code from the key and transmits it to
the decoder unit.
If the code is not recognised by the decoder unit,
the injection warning light (petrol) illuminates for
a few seconds and extinguishes while the red im-
mobiliser warning light flashes (rapid flashing).
If the code is recognised by the decoder unit, it
sends a code to the injection computer (petrol) or
coded solenoid valve (diesel) via the coded line
and extinguishes the red immobiliser warning
light (after approximately 3 seconds).
At this precise moment, one of several situations
may arise:
- The injection computer (petrol) or coded sole-
noid valve (diesel) has no reference code in its
memory :
• the code sent to it is stored in its memory.
82
- The injection computer (petrol) or the coded
solenoid valve (diesel) has a reference code in
its memory:
• the code sent to it is compared with the code
in its memory,
• if the two codes match, the computer un-
locks the injection system (petrol) or coded
solenoid valve (diesel) and the engine may
be started.
When the ignition is switched on, the injec-
tion warning light (petrol) and the immobili-
ser warning light illuminate for 3 seconds then
extinguish, showing that the system is opera-
ting correctly.
• if the two codes do not match, the system re-
mains locked to prevent the engine from
being started.
When the ignition is switched on, the injec-
tion warning light flashes (petrol) and the red
engine immobiliser warning light illuminates
permanently then extinguishes or the red im-
mobiliser warning light remains illuminated
permanently (diesel) indicating that the co-
ded solenoid valve has not recognised the
code.The vehicle may not be started.
NOTE :
to ensure the system operates correctly, no
objects (eg. : keyrings) should be allowed to come
between the key and the antenna ring.
IMPORTANT:
when the vehicle battery has a low
charge, the drop in voltage caused by operating
the starter may set the immobiliser. If the voltage
is too low, the engine cannot be started, even by
pushing the vehicle.
82-5
IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
REPLACING A KEY HEAD
The coded chip in the key head or the remote
control (depending on equipment) is faulty :
- order a replacement key head using the num-
ber in the faulty key head (eight alphanumeric
characters beginning with the letter E or A). If
the key head is from a remote control type key,
carry out a resynchronisation operation.
IMPORTANT:
The resynchronisation procedure
differs depending on if the decoder unit has
been replaced or not (see specific or simple re-
synchronisation procedure in section 88).
- if the customer requires the fault to be repaired
immediately (2nd key unavailable) a complete
kit may be fitted to the vehicle (decoder unit
plus two key heads) (see replacing a complete
kit).
The key has been lost:
- order a replacement key head using the num-
ber in the key head of the 2nd key (eight alpha-
numeric characters beginning with the letter E
or A) or on the label (normally attached to the
keys when the vehicle is delivered).
In this case, remember to order the metal
number insert for the new key head. If the key
head is from a remote control type key, carry
out a resynchronisation operation.
IMPORTANT:
The resynchronisation procedure
differs depending on if the decoder unit has
been replaced or not (see specific or simple re-
synchronisation procedure in section 88).
IMPORTANT:
Do not touch the key head chip
when taking note of the number in the key head.
Any key which has been touched must be repla-
ced.
NOTE:
if the key head number cannot be located
(both keys lost together with the label), the
complete kit must be replaced (decoder unit, plus
2 transponder keys, plus injection computer or co-
ded solenoid valve electronic unit).
82
REPLACING THE DECODER UNIT ALONE
A new decoder unit is not coded. Once fitted to
the vehicle, the codes of both keys must be pro-
grammed so that it is operational (see program-
ming procedure).
NOTE :
if the decoder unit alone is replaced, no
operation is carried out on the injection computer
or coded solenoid valve. It retains the same en-
gine immobiliser code.
IMPORTANT:
when a decoder unit has been pro-
grammed with the key code, the code cannot be
erased and no other code may be memorised in its
place.
SPECIAL NOTES
Diesel vehicles
On these vehicles, the decoder unit is identical to
the decoder unit of a petrol immobiliser system.
When replacing it the new "diesel" part must be
configured by means of the XR25 test kit.
This configuration will enable the decoder unit to
check that the coded solenoid valve is operating
correctly (indicated by the immobiliser warning
light) (see diesel configuration).
Vehicles fitted with a remote control
After replacing the decoder unit carry out a resyn-
chronisation operation (see simple resynchronisa-
tion procedure, section 88).
82-6
5.
Check the immobiliser system operates cor-
rectly with both keys.
Ignition off, the red immobiliser warning light
should flash 10 seconds after switching the
ignition off (slow flashing). Bargraph
10 LH
should be illuminated. The vehicle should not
start when other keys are used.
NOTE :
to simulate prevention from starting,
before switching the ignition on, wait for the
red warning light to flash slowly.
Enter on
the XR25, ignition still off (bargraph
9 LH

coded solenoid valve.
IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
REPLACING A KIT
(decoder unit plus two key heads)
If a kit is replaced it will be necessary to:
- programme the codes of the 2 new keys in the
new decoder unit (supplied uncoded).
- erase the old code in the injection computer or
coded solenoid valve using the security proce-
dure (the code number for the old kit should be
requested from the local assistance network,
example Delta Assistance for France, NVSR for
the UK by fax only)
IMPORTANT :
to erase the old code (memorised in
the injection computer or coded solenoid valve
electronic unit), the procedure described below
must
be followed in the correct order.
The code in the injection computer or coded sole-
noid valve cannot be erased with the security code
(using the number for the old kit) unless the deco-
der unit fitted to the vehicle has been program-
med with a different code (which is the case in the
following procedure).
NOTE :
if the security code is entered when the
decoder unit has the same code as the injection
computer, or coded solenoid valve, it will not be
decoded.
1.
Fit the metal inserts from the old keys into
the new key heads.
2.
Note the number of one of the old keys to
obtain the security code number.
3.
Remove the decoder unit with the ignition
off.
4.
Fit the new decoder unit, ignition off.

tion is complete.
N O T E
- petrol vehicles:
Using the XR25, check the in-
jection computer has been programmed with
the code. Bargraph
2 RH
(immobiliser) should
be extinguished.
After entering
the display should show
The injection computer has been correctly co-
ded.
If the display shows
the injection computer is still uncoded.
- diesel vehicles:
When the ignition is switched
on, check the immobiliser warning light extin-
guishes after 3 seconds.
IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
NOTE:
On petrol vehicles use the XR25 to check
that the injection computer has been correctly de-
coded (in injection fault finding).
Connect the XR25 to the diagnostic socket , posi-
tion the ISO selector and enter the injection code :
bargraph 2 RH side (immobiliser) should be illumi-
nated.
After entering
the message
should appear on the display on the XR25. The
erasure is complete.
- If the display shows
there is a fault on the coded line. In this case,
repair the fault and start the procedure again.
- If bargraph 2 RH side (immobiliser ) is extinguis-
hed,
and the display shows
(*22),
this shows that the injection computer code has
not been erased. In this case check the confor-
mity of the security code and repeat the proce-
dure.

REPLACING THE INJECTION COMPUTER OR
CODED SOLENOID VALVE
The injection computer and coded solenoid valve
are supplied uncoded. The engine immobiliser
code must be programmed in when they are fit-
ted.
It is sufficient to carry out the following opera-
tions:
- switch the ignition on, without starting the en-
gine, using the vehicle’s coded key for a few
seconds,
- switch the ignition off, the immobiliser will be
activated approximately 10 seconds afterwards
(red immobiliser warning light flashes).
NOTE :
starting prevention can be checked
using the XR25:
- Ignition off, wait for the warning light to
flash (slow flashing)
Enter
ignition still off (bargraph
9 LH
illuminates).
- Switch the ignition on, the red immobiliser
warning light should flash more quickly and
the vehicle should be impossible to start.
NOTE :
For removal - refitting information, refer
to the corresponding section (13 or 17).
IMMOBILISER

12.
Check the immobiliser system operates cor-
rectly with both keys.
Switch the ignition on and check that the red
warning light illuminates for 3 seconds then
extinguishes and that the vehicle can be star-
ted.
NOTE :
starting prevention can be checked
using the XR25:
- Ignition off, wait for the warning light to
flash (slow flashing)
Enter
- Switch the ignition on and check the vehi-
cle cannot be started and that the red war-
ning light flashes (rapid flashing).
13.
The procedure is complete. After turning the
ignition off and on again (for more than 2 se-
conds), check the vehicle can be started and
erase all faults present in the decoder unit.
Vehicles fitted with a remote control
After replacing the kit carry out a resynchronisa-
tion operation (see simple resynchronisation pro-
cedure, section 88).

IMPORTANT:
if an uncoded injection computer or
solenoid valve is being tested from stock (test
part), the decoder unit
MUST NOT
be supplied du-
ring the operation.
If the decoder unit is supplied, switching the igni-
tion on causes a coded signal to be sent from the
decoder unit to the injection computer or coded
solenoid valve (and the code is then program-
med).
To avoid memorising a code which could make
the injection computer or coded solenoid valve
electronic unit unusable after the test, the fuse
(+ before ignition feed) for the decoder unit
must be removed (fuse showing the door locking
symbol). This prevents the coded signal being sent
when the ignition is switched on (the computer or
the coded solenoid valve electronic unit remains
uncoded).
For petrol vehicles, the computer used for the test
MUST
have the same Part Number as the original
computer on the vehicle (test computer may be
damaged).
Checkin
g (on petrol vehicle only)
If the test computer is to be returned to stock, it is
possible (before it is removed) to check using the
XR25 that the computer has not been coded du-
ring the test (example : incorrect operation).
Connect the XR25 to the diagnostic socket.
Position the ISO selector and enter the injection
code: bargraph
2 RH
(immobiliser) should be illu-
minated.
After entering
the message
should be displayed on the XR25.
This shows that the injection computer is not co-
ded and may be returned to stock.
If bargraph
2 RH
(immobiliser) is extinguished and
after entering
the message
is displayed on the XR25, this shows that the
computer has been programmed with the immo-
biliser code (incorrect operation). In this case the
computer must be decoded before being returned
to stock.
The procedure for decoding consists of replacing
the decoder unit on the vehicle with another de-
coder unit with a different code (with its key
head) and entering the security code for the vehi-
cle (security code number should be requested
from the local assistance network, example
DELTA
Assistance
for France, NVSR for the UK by fax on-
ly) using the number in the head of the key for the
vehicle.
Ignition off, fit in place of the original decoder
unit on the vehicle, a decoder unit coded with a
different number (the procedure will not work
with an uncoded decoder unit or one which has
the same code as the injection computer).

Connect the XR25 and enter the injection code.
The fault is shown by bargraph 2 RH side.
After entering
the message
on the XR25 display indicates a fault on the coded

Diesel vehicle
If a system fault is detected by the decoder unit
when the engine is running, the red immobiliser
warning light will illuminate permanently until
the ignition is switched off.
IMPORTANT:
In this case, after repair, the fault
memorised in the decoder unit must be erased by
entering command
on the XR25 to allow the engine immobiliser sys-
tem to operate again.
NOTE:
this fault may be shown by the XR25 using
fault finding for the decoder unit (fiche no. 56).
Connect the XR25.
Set the ISO selector to S8.
Enter code
The fault may be shown by bargraph
6 RH or LH
side.
Switch the ignition on, the red engine immobiliser
warning light will flash (rapid flashing).
Enter the vehicle security code (number corre-
sponding to the original key number).
After entering the security code, the red warning
light will flash again.
The XR25 display should show
(in injection fault finding). This indicates that the
injection computer has been decoded.
Switch the ignition off, remove the decoded
computer and return it to stock.
Refit the computer and decoder unit to the vehi-
cle.
NOTE :
When testing the injection using the XR25
on a vehicle without an immobiliser, bargraph 2
RH side
will illuminate (*22 = 2 def = computer
not coded). This is normal.
SYSTEM FAULT, ENGINE RUNNING
Petrol vehicle
If a fault in the system is noted by the injection
computer when the engine is running, the injec-
tion warning light on the instrument panel will
flash during deceleration and at idle speed (en-
gine speed less than 1500 rpm).
IMPORTANT:
In this case, after repair, the fault
memorised in the injection computer and the de-
coder unit must be erased by entering command
on the XR25 or by disconnecting the battery (ap-
proximately 30 seconds) to allow the engine im-
mobiliser system to operate again.

: you may make 3 attempts to enter
the code. If, after the third attempt, the code is in-
valid, you must wait for approximately 15 mi-
nutes before making another attempt.
When this period has expired, switch the ignition
off and on again and 3 more attempts may be
made.
NOTE
: This procedure does not decode the injec-
tion computer or coded solenoid valve (depen-
ding on the type of engine)- it only authorises the
starting of the vehicle.
REMINDER :
The ignition must be switched off
and on again between attempts to enter the
code.

PROCEDURE FOR ENTERING THE SECURITY CODE
With this immobiliser system, the procedure for
entering the security code is managed by the de-
coder unit.
The code is entered using the XR25 only.
The security code can only be entered if the en-
gine immobiliser system is active. The red immobi-
liser warning light must flash when the ignition is
switched on (rapid flashing).
After determining the security code number (re-
quest from the local assistance network, example
DELTA Assistance
for France, NVSR for the UK by
fax only) , carry out the following operations:
1.
Ignition off, the red engine immobiliser war-
ning light should flash (slow flashing).
2.
Switch the ignition on, the injection warning
light (petrol vehicle) illuminates for approxi-
mately 3 seconds then extinguishes, while the
red immobiliser warning light should flash
more quickly.
3.
Connect the XR25 to the vehicle and set the
ISO selector on S8.
Enter code
Bargraph 10 LH should be illuminated (fault

OPERATION
The sensor consists of a wire with a high
coefficient of resistance. When a current passes
through the wire it does not have the same
thermal conductivity when it is immersed in a
liquid as when it is in the open air.
After a fixed time a voltage difference is obtained
at the sensor terminals depending on the depth of
immersion of the wire. This voltage difference is
recorded by the electronic unit which manages
the level display function and also controls the
"low oil level" warning light display on the
central liquid crystal display.
When the ignition is switched on, the central dis-
play shows the oil level in a series of "blocks" for
approximately 30 seconds, before returning to
displaying the trip mileometer and total mileome-
ter functions (or "odometer" function).
NOTE :
Turning the trip mileometer reset button
before the end of the timed period will display
the "odometer" function.
LOOKING FOR FAULTS
If a short circuit or an open circuit is detected
when the oil level is measured, the display will im-
mediately show the trip mileometer / clock dis-
plays.
CHECKING
The sensor resistance must be between 6 and 20
ohms
.
The sensor is deemed to be in short circuit for a va-
lue lower than 4 ohms.
The sensor is deemed to be in open circuit for a va-
lue higher than 22 ohms.

REPAIR OF THE FILAMENT
Clean the section to be treated locally to remove
all dust or grease, preferably using alcohol or a
glass cleaner, and wipe with a clean, dry cloth.
To obtain a regular line during the repair, apply
scotch adhesive tape on either side of the section
to be repaired, leaving the conducting line free.
Before applying the varnish, shake the bottle to
prevent the deposit of silver particles on the bot-
tom of the bottle.
The heated grid applied to the inner face of the
window may be accidentally cut, making the part
of the grid affected inefficient.
The exact point of the disconnection may be de-
termined by means of a voltmeter.
It is possible to repair such faults by applying the
heated rear screen varnish sold under Part
Number 77 01 421 135 (2 g pack).
DETERMINING THE EXACT POINT OF
DISCONNECTION WITH A VOLTMETER.
Switch on the ignition.
Switch on the heated rear screen feed.
DETECTION BETWEEN LINES B AND A
Connect the + wire of the voltmeter to the +
feed terminal of the rear screen.
Place the - wire of the voltmeter on a filament on
the - terminal side of the rear screen (line B). A
voltage approximately equal to battery voltage
must be obtained.
Move the - wire towards line A (arrow): the vol-
tage drops progressively.
If the voltage drops quickly the filament is cut at
that point (carry out this operation for each fila-
ment).
DI8814
DETECTION BETWEEN LINES C AND A
Connect the - wire of the voltmeter to the - termi-

essentially a voltage equal to the battery voltage
must be obtained.
Move the + wire towards line A (arrow); the vol-

more than three times.
However, if there is a run it will be possible to eli-
minate it using the point of a knife or razor blade
once the product is sufficiently hardened (after se-
veral hours).
The adhesive tape acting as a guide must not be
removed for one hour after application. The tape
must be torn off perpendicularly to the resistance
in the direction of the arrow. The varnish, applied
at an ambient temperature of 20

Remote control for door locking
88
.
GENERAL
These vehicles are equipped with an infrared or
radio frequency remote control with rolling code,
which prevents the code from being copied.
When a transmitter is replaced it will therefore be
necessary to resynchronise it so that the transmit-
ters are returned to phase with the decoder unit.
This remote control is only used for locking and
unlocking the opening elements (it has no effect
on the immobiliser).
IMPORTANT:
this system cannot operate with
three remote controls (the decoder unit can only
manage two different rolling codes).
THE TRANSMITTER (PLIP)
Replacing or adding a remote control with immo-
biliser function without replacing the decoder
unit.
Order a spare key head using the number in the
head of one of the old keys or the label normally
attached to the keys when the vehicle is delivered
(eight alphanumeric characters).
If a key is being added or has been lost, remember
to order the insert with the key number.
Carry out the special resynchronisation procedure
using the XR25.
This procedure resets the remote control into se-
quence with the decoder unit (rolling code) and
should only be used if the decoder unit is not
being replaced (with immobiliser only).
1.
Ignition off, connect the XR25 (ISO selector on
S8, code D56).
For vehicles fitted with an infra-red remote
control, enter command mode G04* (forced
protection mode) then switch the ignition on
again and enter the vehicle’s security code
(see procedure in section 82).
For vehicles fitted with a radio frequency re-
mote control, go to point 2.
2.
Switch the ignition off and enter command
mode G32*.
From this moment, the operator has 10 se-
conds
to carry out the next operation.
NOTE:
The 10 seconds are shown by the illu-
mination of the red immobiliser warning light
and bargraph 17 LH on the XR25
(code
D56

3.
Press the remote control twice (the doors lock
and unlock and the red warning light extin-
guishes).
NOTE :
- When replacing a key head, resynchronisa-
tion of the second remote control (if fitted)
is not always necessary.
Check that the second control operates,
otherwise resynchronise it.
- If both remote controls (if fitted) are desyn-
chronised, two resynchronisation proce-
dures will have to be carried out (one for
each remote control).
IMPORTANT:
To ensure that the infrared code
is correctly transmitted it is essential to direct
the transmitter correctly towards the receiver.
If the procedure fails it will be necessary to
restart from the beginning (infrared remote
control only).

Simple resynchronisation procedure
This procedure allows the remote controls to be
reset with the decoder unit (rolling code).
This procedure is used:
- when the remote control code no longer lies
within the reception range of the decoder unit
(over 1,000 consecutive presses on the remote
control, away from the vehicle).
- when replacing a decoder unit alone (new de-
coder unit),
- when replacing a remote control if the decoder
unit is new (replacing a kit).
REMINDER:
when replacing or adding a remote
control with immobiliser function without repla-
cing the decoder unit, refer to "Replacing or ad-
ding a remote control with or without immobili-
ser function without replacing the decoder unit"

Airbags and seat belt pretensioners
GENERAL
88
IMPORTANT :
all work on the airbag and
pretensioner systems must be carried out by
qualified personnel who have received the proper
training.
There are 3 safety systems which supplement the
seat belt.
If a frontal impact is sufficiently strong, the elec-
tronic unit controlling these systems triggers:
•
The pretensioners
which restrict the seat belts
for the front seats so that they are pressed
against the body.
• The airbag cushion which inflates from the
centre of the steering wheel to protect the
driver’s head.
• The airbag module which inflates from the
dashboard to protect the front passenger’s
head.

FUNCTION AND OPERATION OF THE AIRBAGS AND PRETENSIONERS
1) Function
In the event of an accident, the airbag prevents the head striking the steering wheel or dashboard.
It also reduces the maximum acceleration of the head, by absorption.
2) Trigger threshold
Generally speaking, there are four different basic situations.
1) FRONTAL IMPACT AGAINST A
OBSTACLE
The trigger speed depends on the obstacle’s
surface. The softer the surface, the higher the
speed.
The pretensioner generally triggers at a lower
speed than the airbag.
2) OFFSET IMPACT AGAINST A
OBSTACLE
In this case, the airbag trigger speed depends on
the angle of impact
α
.
The greater the angle, the higher the vehicle
speed for triggering.

DI8819

WIRING
Airbags and seat belt pretensioners
88
3) FRONTAL IMPACT AGAINST A FLEXIBLE
OBSTACLE
The airbag trigger speed depends in this case on
the degree of flexibility of the bodywork of the
vehicle hit.
The more flexible the other vehicle, the higher the
trigger speed (for vehicles of equal flexibility and
100 % contact, the speed is higher than 40 km/h)
(relative speed).
4) OFFSET IMPACT AGAINST A FLEXIBLE
OBSTACLE
Here the airbag trigger speed depends on the an-
gle of impact
α
and the flexibility of the vehicle hit
in the direction of travel.
The vehicle speed for airbag triggering is greater
when the angle of impact
α
is greater and the
flexibility of the vehicle hit is high.
5) SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION
- The airbag only reacts to deceleration in the direction of driving. A side impact or the vehicle rolling over
cannot
trigger the airbag.
- The vehicle’s projectile energy is transformed into deformation energy of the front part of the vehicle.
Deceleration is greater when the deformation of the vehicle hit is less, meaning that the airbag will trigger
much earlier.
- The minimum speed at which the airbag is triggered is greater when the angle of impact
α
is large (see
above).
- If, in a frontal impact, there is no deformation at the front pillars, or engine - gearbox - sub-frame impact,
the fact that the airbag was not triggered cannot be considered as a fault since the trigger speed may not
have been reached.
- The pretensioners always trigger at a lower speed than the airbag.
- Experience has shown that the impact speeds given by customers are often not correct. Their reactions are
generally reduced by shock: there is almost always confusion between the cruising speed before the im-
pact and the actual speed of the impact which is thankfully much lower in most cases.

The new 30-track computers are provided with
the K and L lines for fault finding with the XR25
(except for vehicles with pretensioners only).
This enables computer faults or faulty lines to be
detected in the system (see section on fault fin-
ding).
NOTE:
before each operation an auxiliary func-
tion enables the ignition lines to be de-activated
to prevent the risk of triggering the pyrotechnic
gas generators.
Various vehicle configurations are possible:
Vehicle fitted with:
- pretensioners only,
- pretensioners and driver’s airbag,
- pretensioners and driver’s airbag and passen-
ger’s airbag.
NOTE :
• A vehicle fitted with a driver’s airbag will be
identified by a label in the bottom corner of
the windscreen on the driver’s side, and by the
word "Airbag" in the centre of the steering
wheel.
• If a passenger airbag is fitted, a second label is
located in the lower corner of the windscreen
on the passenger side and the word "Airbag" is
located on the dashboard on the same side.
Each time the windscreen is replaced, remember
to fit the labels showing that the vehicle is fitted
with airbags.

:
• The computer must be replaced after the pre-
tensioners and airbags have been triggered.
Certain components will lose their nominal cha-
racteristics after the trigger energy has passed
through them.
• When replacing an airbag(s) computer, the
computer must be unlocked using the XR25 be-
fore it is used (see "Fault finding" section " : in-

WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD
This warning light controls the pretensioners and
airbags, except for vehicles fitted with pretensio-
ners only.
It should illuminate for a few seconds when the
ignition is switched on, then extinguish (and
remain extinguished). If it does not illuminate
when the ignition is switched on, or illuminates
when the vehicle is being driven, there is a fault in
the system (see fault finding section).
IMPORTANT
: the systems
MUST
be checked by
means of the
XRBAG
, following:
- an accident which has not given rise to
triggering,
- theft or attempted theft of the vehicle,
- before the sale of a used vehicle.
These systems are not triggered in the case of:
- a lateral impact,
- a rear impact.
When it is triggered the pyrotechnic gas
generator produces an explosion combined with
light smoke.
NOTE :
With pretensioners only,the computer has
a single sensor (electromechanical).
OPERATIONS ON THE TRIGGER LINES
If a fault is noted on one of these lines, the
component must be renewed and not repaired.
This safety equipment cannot be subjected to any
conventional wiring or connector repair opera-
tions.
The airbag trigger wiring is integrated into the
passenger compartment wiring loom . To make
replacement easier, cut the two ends of the faulty
wiring and run the new wiring along the same
routing, alongside the passenger compartment
wiring loom.
IMPORTANT : When fitting the new wiring, en-
sure it is not in danger of being cut or rubbed and
that the original wiring cleanliness is respected.
NOTE : The trigger lines are supplied by the Parts
Department in a kit containing both airbag and
pretensioner wiring.
OPERATION WITH AIRBAG(S) AND PRETENSIONER
EQUIPMENT
When the ignition is switched on, the
warning light illuminates for a few
seconds then extinguishes.
This computer is then on standby and notes dece-
lerations of the vehicle using the signal measured
by the integral decelerometer.
When a frontal impact of sufficient strength oc-
curs it triggers the simultaneous ignition of the
pyrotechnic generators of the two seat belt pre-
tensioners after receiving confirmation of detec-
tion of an impact by the electromechanical safety
sensor.
Under the action of the gases generated by the
system, a piston is displaced in its cylinder,
carrying with it a cable connected to the
corresponding central catch, thus enabling the
seat belt to be retracted (see pretensioner
section).
If the frontal impact is greater than this, the dece-
lerometer triggers the ignition of the pyrotechnic
gas generators which inflate the driver and pas-
senger airbags once the impact has been valida-
ted by the electromechanical safety sensor.

SEAT BELTS
When the pretensioners are triggered the front
seat belt or belts must be systematically replaced
if they were attached during the pretensioning (if
there is any doubt about wearing the belt it must
be replaced). The physical stresses exerted on the
catch are transmitted to the inertia reel and may
damage its mechanism.
REMOVAL
IMPORTANT:
The pyrotechnic systems (pretensio-
ners) must not be handled near a heat source or
flame; there is a risk of triggering.
Remove:
- the pretensioner connector under the front
seat,
- the pretensioner assembly, after removing its
protective trim.
IMPORTANT
: before scrapping a non-triggered
pretensioner it
MUST
be destroyed in accordance
with the method for destruction (except for parts
returned under warranty) (see section
"Destruction procedure").
REFITTING
Ensure that the wiring is correctly routed and the
wiring mounting points are correct under the
seat.
NOTE:
