Rules for transporting children on the front passenger seat** Children under the age of 10 must not travel in the forwards facingposition, unless the rear seats arealready occupied by other childrenor the rear seats cannot be used(absent or folded). In this case,adjust the front passenger seat tothe most rearward position and armthe passenger air bag. The rearwards facing position is per- mitted from birth to 13 kg or 18 kg. Inthis position, it is essential to disarmthe passenger air bag.
GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safe- ty of your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow these precautions:
Ð Since 1992, all children under the age of 10 must travel in approved child
seats* suited to their weight , on seats fitted with a seat belt.
In order to recognise a child seat which conforms to current legislation, check
that it bears an orange label indicating the weight range for its use and its approval number .
Ð A child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the rearwards facing posi-
tion both in the front and in the rear. PEUGEOT recommends that chil-dren should travel in the "rearwards facing" position up to the age of two.
Ð Statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for the transportation of chil-dren are the rear seats.
Ð If a child is travelling on a booster seat, check that the lap section of the seat belt passes over the child's thighs correctly. The chest section of the seat beltmust be positioned on the child's shoulder without touching the neck.
PEUGEOT recommends that you use a booster seat with a back, fittedwith a seat belt guide.
Ð Remember to fasten the seat belt or the child seat harness keeping the slack
in relation to the child's body to a minimum , even for short journeys.
* According to current legislation in the country.
** Consult the relevant administration in your country for information regarding the rules for transporting children on the front passenger seat.

"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS The front passenger seat, the two rear side seats (saloon and 206 SW)and the one third section of the rearseat (206 RC) are fitted with ISOFIX
mountings . These are two rings
located between the seat back andthe seat cushion. The ISOFIX child seats are fitted
with two locks which are secured
easily on these rings. All this guar-antees reliable, safe and fast fitting. The ISOFIX child seat approved for
PEUGEOT vehicles and sold by
PEUGEOT dealers is the
Isofix
KIDDY* child seat. It can be fitted in
the "rear facing" position from birthto 13 kg and in the "forwards facing"position from 9 to 18 kg. In the front, in the "rear facing" posi- tion, the front passenger seat mustbe moved as far forward as possibleso that the body of the child seat isin contact with or as close as possi-ble to the fascia.
In the rear, in the "forwards facing"
position, in the saloon and 206 SW,it is imperative that the front passen-ger seat is in the mid-way position
on the runner, seat back upright. Inthe 206 RC, the body of the childseat must be in the most uprightposition. Refer to the child seat'sinstallation guide for this setting. In the rear, in the "rear facing" posi-tion, the body of the child seat mustbe in contact with the back of thecorresponding front seat. This seat can also be used on seats not fitted with ISOFIX mountings. Inthis case it is compulsory to attach itto the vehicle's seat by means of thethree-point seat belt for both the"rear facing" and "forwards facing"positions. Refer to the "Summary table for fitting child seats".
When the ISOFIX KIDDY seat is fitted in the "rear facing" positionon the front passenger seat, it isessential to disarm the passengerair bag. Otherwise, the child would risk being killed or seriously injured ifthe air bag were to inflate. Follow the instructions for fitting the child seat in the seat manu-facturer's instruction booklet.
* You can only fit ISOFIX child seats
approved by PEUGEOT and sold
by PEUGEOT dealers on yourvehicle's ISOFIX mountings.

SEAT BELTS Seat belt height adjustment:
Ð to lower: pull the control towardsyou and slide it downwards.
Ð to raise: slide the control upwards. To lock the seat belts Pull the strap, then insert the end into the buckle. Front seat belts with pre-tensioner and force limiter Safety in the event of front impacts has been improved by the introduc-tion of seat belts with pre-tensionerand force limiter for the front seats.Depending on the seriousness ofthe impact, the pre-tensioning sys-tem instantly tightens the seat beltsand pulls them against the bodies ofthe occupants. The pre-tensioning seat belts are active when the ignition is on. The force limiter eases the pressure of the seat belt on the body of theoccupant in the event of an acci-dent. Rear seat belts The rear seats are fitted with three three-point inertia reel seat belts(saloon and 206 SW) or with twothree-point inertia reel seat belts
(206 GTi 180).
To be effective, a seat belt must be tightenedas close to the body aspossible.
Depending on the nature andseriousness of the impact, thepre-tensioning system may betriggered before and independ-ently of the air bags. In all cases, the air bag warning light on the instrument panelcomes on. Following an impact, have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
