''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.

For maximum safety, please observe the following precautions:
- All children under the age of 10 are required to travel in approved restraining devices*, suited to their weight, in the seats
fit-
ted with seat belts.
- front passenger seat*: children under the age of 10 must not be transported in the "forwards facing" position, unless the rear seats are already occupied by other children. In this case adjust the front passenger seat to the mid-position. The "rear fac -
ing" position is permitted when the air bag is disarmed.
After carrying out numerous tests, PEUGEOT recommends the following systems: Up to 18 months (to 29 lbs or 13 kg) "Ršmer Babysure": is installed with its back to the engine and secured with a three-point seat belt, on either the front or rea r
seat. In the front the passenger seat must be adjusted to the "mid-position".
From 9 months to 3 or 4 years (20 to 40 lbs or 9 to 18 kg) "Ršmer Prince": is fitted to the rear seat with a three-point seat belt.For the safety of your children, the seat and the restraining cushion must never be separated.

FRONT AIR BAGS These are folded in the centre of the steering wheel for the driver and in the
fascia for the front passenger. Theyare deployed simultaneously except incases where the air bag is disarmed. Front air bag fault If this warning light comes on, accom- panied by an audible signal and themessage
"Air bag fault" on the multi-
function display, contact a PEUGEOTdealer to have the system checked.
AIR BAGS The air bags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occupantsin the event of serious collisions. Itworks in conjunction with the force-limiting seat belts. The electronic detectors register and analyse any abrupt deceleration of thevehicle: if the triggering threshold isreached the air bags inflate instantlyand protect the occupants of thevehicle. Immediately after the impact, the air
bags deflate rapidly, so that they donot hinder the visibility of the occu-pants and their exit if necessary fromthe vehicle. The air bags are not deployed in the case of collisions which are not
serious, for which the seat belt is suffi-cient to ensure maximum protection.The seriousness of a collisiondepends on the nature of the obstacleand the speed of the vehicle at themoment of the collision. Air bags only operate when the ignition is switched on. Note:
the gas escaping from the
cushion can be a minor irritant. Disarming the passenger* air bag
