ISOFIX MOUNTINGS
Available on the front passenger seat, the Isofix mountings allow for fitting of a
special 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 from birth to 29lbs (13 kg): front
seat as far forward as possible so
that the body of the child seat is incontact with or as close as possible tothe instrument panel. In this case, it is essential to disarm the passenger air bag. The child would risk being killed or seriously injured if the air bag wereto inflate. 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, thechild seat strap and the seat belt andadjust the passenger seat to the most
rearward position. The passenger airbag may be left active. The special approved child seat is the
Isofix KIDDY seat. It can be used inthe "rear facing" position from birth to29 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: it isthen compulsory to attach it to thevehicle's seat using the three-pointseat belt. 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 seat belts.
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.
For greater safety, have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer within tenyears following the initial purchaseof the vehicle.
