CHILD SAFETY

teria when designing your vehicle, the
safety of your children also depends on
you.

* The rules for transporting children are specifi c to each country. Refer to the
current legislation in your country.
GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS
"Rearwards-facing"

PEUGEOT recommends that
children should travel in the rear
seats of your vehicle:
- "rearwards-facing" up to
the age of 2,
- "forwards-facing" over the
age of 2. When a "rearwards-facing" child
seat is installed on the
front
passenger seat , it is essential
that the passenger airbag is de-
activated. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously
injured or killed if the airbag
were to infl ate. When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the
front passenger seat ,
adjust the vehicle's seat to the interme-
diate longitudinal position with the seat
back upright and leave the passenger
airbag activated.
"Forwards-facing"
Intermediate longitudinal position
For maximum safety, please follow
these precautions:
- in accordance with European regula-
tions, all children under the age of
12 or less than one and a half me-
tres tall must travel in approved
child seats suited to their weight ,
on seats fi 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.

CHILD SAFETY
The incorrect installation of a
child seat in a vehicle compro-
mises the child's protection in
the event of an accident. For information regarding the
ISOFIX child seats which can be
installed in your vehicle, consult
the summary table for the loca-
tion of the ISOFIX child seats.
"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS
These are three rings for each seat:
- two rings
A , located between the
vehicle seat back and cushion, indi-
cated by a label,
- a ring B , used to fi x the upper strap,
referred to as the TOP TETHER , in-
dicated by a label. This ISOFIX mounting system guaran-
tees you fast, reliable and safe fi tting of
the child seat in your vehicle.
The
ISOFIX child seats are fi tted with
two locks which are secured easily on
the two rings A .
Some also have an upper strap which
is attached to the ring B .
To attach this strap, remove the vehi-
cle seat's head restraint. Then fi x the
hook on the ring B and tighten the upper
strap.
Your vehicle has been approved in accord-
ance with the
new ISOFIX regulation .
The seats, represented below, are fi tted
with regulation ISOFIX mountings:

CHILD SAFETY
The incorrect installation of a
child seat in a vehicle compro-
mises 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
"forward facing" child seat, en-
sure 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 securely to prevent
it from being thrown around the
vehicle in the event of sharp
braking.
Children under the age of
10 must not travel in the "for-
ward 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 infl 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, fi tted
with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and un-
supervised 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, fi t side blinds on the
rear windows.
