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 .
Ð The safest seats in your vehicle for the transportation of children are therear 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 belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without touching the neck. PEUGEOT recom-mends that you use a booster seat with a back, fitted with 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.
