regulation.
The mountings comprise three rings for
each seat: - two front rings
A and B , located
between the vehicle seat back and
cushion, - a rear ring
C , located on the back
of the vehicle's seat back, for
securing the upper strap referred to
as the TOP TETHER.
This ISOFIX mounting system
guarantees you fast, reliable and safe
fi tting of the child seat in your vehicle
on the side seats.
The ISOFIX child seats are fi tted with
two locks which are secured easily on
the two front rings.
Some also have an upper strap which

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
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 "forward
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
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 "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 infl ate.

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. 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.
CHILD LOCK
This prevents opening of the side
doors from the inside. Manual mode
A label indicates the location of the
child lock.
- Open fully past the point of
resistance.
- Tilt the lever, located on the rear section of the door.
Electric mode With the ignition on, press this
button. The diode comes on.
Warning: this system is
independent of the central
locking control.
Always remove the ignition key when
leaving the vehicle, even for a short
time.
It is advisable to check the activation of
the child lock each time the ignition is
switched on.
In the event of a serious impact the
electric child lock is deactivated
automatically.
To prevent accidental opening of the
doors, use the "Child Lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows
by more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays
of the sun, fi t side blinds to the rear
windows.

Towing a trailer For more information about
weights, refer to the administrative
documents (V5 registration
document, ...) or to the "Weights"
section of chapter 8.
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...

Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest objects are as
close as possible to the axle and
the nose weight is close to the
maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it.

Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the coolant temperature. As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to
lower the engine speed and reduce
your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the
coolant temperature.
Driving advice
A towed vehicle must free wheel:
gearbox in neutral.

ACCESSORIES

Good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep slope in high temperatures), the
engine automatically limits its power. In
this case, the automatic cutting off of
the air conditioning allows the engine
power to be recovered.
Tyres
Check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identifi cation
features" section of chapter 8) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressure.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 6.
If the coolant temperature
warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change
down early and brake gradually. Towbar
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their
harnesses, which have been tested
and approved from the design stage of
your vehicle, and that you entrust the
fi tting of this equipment to a PEUGEOT
dealer.
If this equipment is not fi tted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative that
it is fi tted using the electrical pre-
equipment installed at the rear of the
vehicle and in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
In accordance with the general
instructions a reminder of which has
been given above, we draw your
attention to the risk linked with fi tting
a towbar or electrical accessory not
recommended by PEUGEOT. Fitting
such equipment could result in the
failure of your vehicle's electronic
system. Please contact a PEUGEOT
dealer for information before fi tting this
type of equipment.

Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased.
Drive smoothly and at a moderate
speed.

ABS/ESP
The ABS or ESP systems only control
the vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.

Rear parking assistance
The assistance does not function while
the vehicle is towing.

Equipment
A further range is also available, structured around comfort, leisure and maintenance:
Anti-theft alarm, window engraving, fi rst aid kit, high visibility jacket, rear parking assistance, warning triangle, ...
Seat covers compatible with air bags for the front seats, bench seat, rubber mats, carpet mats, snow chains, blinds, tailgate bicycle carrier, ...
Audio equipment, hands-free kit, speakers, CD changer, navigation, ...
Regardless of the audio and telematic equipment offered on the market, the technical constraints linked with the fi tting of equipment of these product groups mean that the special features of the equipment and its compatibility with the capacities of your vehicle's standard equipment must be taken into account. Please ask a PEUGEOT dealer for further information before fi tting such equipment.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fi xings are positioned correctly,
- never fi t one mat on top of another.
Maximum weights on bars

accessories and original parts is offered.


Installing radiocommunication transmitters
You are advised to contact a PEUGEOT dealer before installing accessory radiocommunication transmitters with external aerial on your vehicle.
The PEUGEOT network will inform you of the characteristics (frequency band, maximum output power, aerial position, specifi c conditions of installation) of the transmitters which can be fi tted, in accordance with the Motor Vehicle Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (2004/104/EC).
