''Isofix'' mountings
Available on the front passenger seat, the Isofix mountings allow for fitting of aspecial child seat
, sold by PEUGEOT
dealers. The locks incorporated in the child seat fit onto the Isofix mountings and ensuresafe, reliable and fast assembly
.
In the front, the child seat must be fit-
ted in the "rear facing" position for chil-dren weighing less than 29lbs (13 kg):front seat as far forward as possibleso that the body of the child seat is incontact with or as close as possible to
the instrument panel. This positionthus limits movement of the child seatin the event of an accident. In exceptional cases, the child seat may be fitted in the 'forwards facing'position if the rear seats are alreadyoccupied by other children. In thiscase, use the Isofix mountings, thestrap and the seat belt and adjust the front passenger seat to the "mid-travel" position. In both cases it is imperative to disarm the passenger air bag. The special approved child seat is the
Isofix KIDDY seat. It can be used "rearfacing" from birth to 29 lbs (13 kg)and "forwards facing" from 20 to 40 lbs(9 to 18 kg). This seat can also be used on seats not fitted with Isofix mountings: buck-ling of the three-point seat belt is then
compulsory. Follow the instructions for fitting the child seat given in the instruc-tion booklet.

Seat belts
To lock the seat belts Pull the strap, then insert the buckle into the stalk.Pre-tensioning and force-limitingfront seat belts Safety in the event of a frontal impact has been improved by the introductionof pre-tensioning and force-limitingfront seat belts. Depending on theseriousness of the impact, the pre-ten-sioning system instantly tightens theseat belts firmly against the body ofthe occupant. The pre-tensioning seat belts are armed when the ignition is on. The force-limiting device reduces the pressure of the seat belt against theoccupant's body in the event of anaccident. Rear seat belts The rear seats are fitted with two three-point inertia reel seatbelts.
To be effective, a seat belt must be tightened asclose to the body as pos-sible.
Depending on the nature and theseriousness of the impact, the pre-tensioners may be triggeredbefore and independently of trig-gering of the air bags. In all cases, the air bag warning light on the instrument panelcomes on. Following a collision, have the sys- tem checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer. The system has been designed to be fully operational for ten years. Have it replaced after this period.
