GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat
is installed on the front passenger
seat , adjust the vehicle’s seat to the
intermediate longitudinal position
with the seat back upright and leave
the passenger air bag armed.
"Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing"
child seat is installed on the
front passenger seat , it is
essential that the passenger
air bag is disarmed. Otherwise, the
child would risk being seriously
injured or killed if the air bag were
t o i n fl a t e .
For maximum safety, please
follow these precautions:
- in accordance with Directive 2003/20, all children under
the age of 12 or less than one
m e t r e fi f t y t a l l m u s t t r a v e l i n
approved child seats suited
to their weight , o n s e a t s fi t t e d
with a seat belt or ISOFIX
mountings * ,
- statistically, the safest seats
in your vehicle for the trans-
portation 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.
