INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT
USING A THREE POINT SEAT
BELT GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS
Although one of PEUGEOT"s main
criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also de-
pends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow
these precautions:
- in accordance with Directive 2003/20, all children under the
age of 12 or less than one metre
i fty * tall must travel in approved
child seats suited to their weight ,
on seats i tted with a seat belt or
ISOFIX mountings * ,
- statistically, the safest seats in
your vehicle for the transpor-
tation of children are the rear
seats,
- 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 chil-
dren should travel in the rear seats
of your vehicle:
- "rearwards-facing" up to the
age of 2,
- "forwards-facing" over the age
of 2.
* The rules for transporting chil-
dren are specii c to each country.
Consult the current legislation in
your country. Intermediate longitudinal
position


"Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat
is installed on the front passenger
seat , it is essential that the passen-
ger air bag is disarmed. Otherwise,

the child would risk being seri-
ously injured or killed if the air bag
were to inl ate.

ADVICE ON CHILD
SEATS
Children under the age of 10 must not
travel in the "forward facing" position
on the front passenger seat, unless
the rear seats are already occupied
by other children, cannot be used or
are absent.
Disarm the passenger air bag when
a "rear facing" child seat is installed
on the front seat. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the air bag were to inl ate.
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must
be positioned on the child"s shoulder
without touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat
belt passes correctly over the child"s
thighs.
PEUGEOT recommends the use of
a booster seat which has a back, i t-
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level. As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
- a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with
the windows closed,
- the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the
doors, use the "Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear win-
dows by more than one third.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, i t side blinds on the
rear windows.
The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child"s protection in the event of an
accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts
or the child seat harnesses
keeping
the slack in relation to the child"s
body to a minimum, even for short
journeys.
For optimum installation of the "for-
ward facing" child seat, ensure that
the back of the child seat is in contact
with the back of the vehicle"s seat
and that the head restraint does not
cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be removed,
ensure that it is stored or attached se-
curely to prevent it from being thrown
around the vehicle in the event of
sharp braking.

COMFORT
These are two rings located between
the seat back and the seat cushion.

The ISOFIX child seats are i tted
with two locks which are secured
easily on these rings. These seats are i tted with ISOFIX
mountings. This ISOFIX mounting system guar-
antees reliable, safe and fast i tting of
the child seat in your vehicle.
