Help my folks !!! Its a Citroen question.

<< < (2/3) > >>

dxmedia:
Seat belt pre-tensioners and is the key the valet key?

wizard:
The air bag switch operates off the main ignition key. thats just inside the drivers door.
Whats the seat belt pre-tensioners, and  the valet key ?
I have just gone through the owners hand book and there is no mention of this other key ? I might take a drive down to the citroen garage tomorrow  and ask them whats it for.

thanks so far.

dxmedia:
The pre-tensioners fire basically a gun cartridge under the seat in case of an accident. They pull the seatbelt socket back away from the seatbelt and engage the inertia reel just before the airbag goes off. It stops the occupant flying forwards and being smashed back by the airbag. The socket under the seat coming un-done is the usual reason for the airbag warning light going off (the get kicked by rear passengers).

The valet key (if it is one) is the key you give to the valet driver at a hotel. It disavows access to parts of the car but does let it be driven.

wizard:
The key doesnt fit the door, ignition, airbag switch, or the fuel cap.
The rear door child locks are also on the main key.I can feel a trip to citroen coming on.

dxmedia:
Is the key for that car?
