Groups 2 and 3: from 15 to 36 kg

The height and width at the shoulders and length of the seat cushion must be adjusted according to the age and build of your child.

For the safety of young children (from 9 to 18 kg), PEUGEOT recommends use of the restraining cushion.
Recommendations For optimum installation of a forwards facing child seat, check that the back of the child seat is resting against the back of the vehicle's seat correctly and thatthe head restraint does not cause any discomfort. If it is necessary to remove the head restraint, as in the case of the "RECARO
Start", "KLIPPAN Optima" and "KIDDY Life" child seats (over 6 years of age),ensure that the head restraint is securely stored or attached so that it cannot actas a projectile in the event of sharp braking. Disarm the passenger air bag when installing a "rearwards facing" child seat on the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the child would risk beingseriously injured or killed were the air bag to inflate.
