GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safety 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.
Ð A child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the rearwards facing position both in the front and in the rear. PEUGEOT recommends that children 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. PEUGEOT recommends that children travel in the rear even when a "rearwards facing" child seat is used.
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. PEUGEOTrecommends that you use a booster seat with a back, fitted with a seat beltguide at shoulder level.
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.Rules for transporting children on the front passenger seat** Children under the age of 10 must not travel in the forwards facing position, 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 intermediate position and leavethe passenger air bag armed. The transportation of children in the rearwards facing position is permit-
ted. In this position, it is essential to
disarm the passenger air bag.Otherwise, the child would risk beingkilled or seriously injured if the airbag were to inflate.

Groups 2 and 3: from 15 to 36 kg
L4 - "Recaro Start'': installed in the rear using a three-point seat belt. 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.
Never leave one or more children alone and unsu-pervised in a vehicle. Never leave a child or an
animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun and has thewindows closed.
To protect your young children from the sun, fit blinds on the rearwindows. Never leave the keys within reach of children inside the vehi-cle. Observe strictly the recommen- dations for assembling andsecuring the child seat as shownin the child seat instructions.
To prevent the doors from opening
accidentally, use the child lock*. Also, do not open the rear windows more than a third*.
* According to model.
Disarm the passenger air bag when installing a "rearwards facing" child seat on the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the child would risk beingkilled or seriously injured were the air bag to inflate.

SEAT BELTS Seat belt height adjustment
To lower or raise: slide the control downwards or upwards. Fastening the seat belts Pull the strap, then insert the end into the buckle. Seat belts with pre-tensioner Safety in the event of front impacts has been improved by the introduc-
tion of seat belts with pre-tensioner. Depending on the seriousness of the impact, the pre-tensioning systeminstantly tightens the seat belts andpulls them against the bodies of theoccupants. The pre-tensioning seat belts are active when the ignition is on.
To be effective, a seat belt must be tightenedas close to the body aspossible.
Depending on the nature andseriousness of the impact, the pre-tensioning system may be trig-gered before and independently ofthe 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.

Confidential card The confidential card contains the identification code necessary for anywork carried out by a PEUGEOTdealer on the electronic immobiliser
system. This code is hidden by afilm, which should be removed only if
necessary. Keep your card in a safe place, never inside the vehicle. Key in ignition
A buzzer sounds on opening the
driver's door, if the key has been leftin the ignition.
ELECTRONIC ENGINE IMMOBILISER This locks the engine control system as soon as the ignition has been
switched off and therefore preventsstarting of the vehicle by anyone
who does not have the key. The ignition key has an electronic chip which has a special code.When the ignition is switched on, thecode must be recognised for startingto be possible. If the system does not function correctly
, the central locking button
indicator light, situated in the centreof the fascia, flashes rapidly whenthe ignition is switched on
(2nd notch), accompanied by anaudible signal. In this case your vehicle will not start.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.

Make a careful note of the number on each key. The key number is coded on the label attached to the key. If the keys are lost, your PEUGEOT dealer can rapidly supply you with new keys.The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate it while it is in your pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock your vehicle, without you being aware of it.
The remote control does not operate when the key is in the ignition, even when the ignition is switched off, except forreprogramming. Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compartment by the emergency services more difficult
in an emergency. As a safety precaution (with children on board), remove the ignition key when you leave the vehicle, even for a short time.Do not repeatedly press the button of your remote control out of range of your vehicle.
You risk causing it not to work and the remote control would have to be reprogrammed. When purchasing a second-hand vehicle: Ð ensure that you are given the confidential card;
Ð have the key codes memorised by a PEUGEOT dealer, to ensure that the keys in your possession are the only ones which can start the vehicle.
Do not make any modifications to the electronic engine immobiliser system.
