CHILD SAFETY
  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    b o o s t e r    s e a t    w h i c h    h a s    a    b a c k ,    fi   t -
ted  with  a  seat  belt  guide  at  shoulder 
level. 
 As a safety precaution, do not leave:  
   -   a  child  or  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  and  rear  windows,  use  the 
 " C h i l d   l o c k " .   
 Take  care  not  to  open  the  rear  win- 
dows by more than one third.  
 To  protect  young  children  from  the  
 r a y s    o f    t h e    s u n ,    fi   t    s i d e    b l i n d s    o n    t h e  
rear windows.   
 The  incorrect  installation  of  a  child 
seat  in  a  vehicle  compromises  the 
child's  protection  in  the  event  of  an
accident.  
   R e m e m b e r    t o    f a s t e n    t h e    s e a t    b e l t s    o r   
the  child  seat  harnesses  keeping  the 
slack  relative  to  the  child's  body  to  a 
minimum, even for short journeys.  
 When  installing  a  child  seat  using  the  
seat  belt,  ensure  that  the  seat  belt  is 
tightened  correctly  on  the  child  seat 
 a n d   t h a t   i t   s e c u r e s   t h e   c h i l d   s e a t   fi   r m l y  
on the seat of your vehicle.  
 For  optimum  installation  of  the 
"forwards-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. 
   C h i l d r e n   u n d e r   t h e   a g e   o f   1 0   m u s t   n o t  
travel in the "forwards-facing" position 
on  the  front  passenger  seat,  unless 
the  rear  seats  are  already  occupied 
by  other  children,  cannot  be  used  or 
are absent.  
 Deactivate  the  passenger  airbag  
when  a  "rearwards-facing"  child  seat 
is installed on the front seat.  
 Otherwise,  the  child  would  risk  being  
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
