CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS
* The rules for carrying children are specifi c to each country. Refer to the
current legislation in your country. When a "rearwards-facing"
child seat is installed on the

front passenger seat , it is
essential that the passenger
airbag is deactivated. Otherwise, the
child would risk being seriously in-
jured or killed if the airbag were to
infl ate .
"Rearwards-facing"
Although one of PEUGEOT's main cri-
teria when designing your vehicle, the
safety of your children also depends
on you.
For maximum safety, please
observe the following recom-
mendations:
- in accordance with European reg- ulations, all children under the
age of 12 or less than one and
a half metres 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 carrying chil-
dren 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.
Intermediate longitudinal position
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 airbag activated.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
Children under the age of 10 must not
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 in-
stalled on the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
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 t-
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level. As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- a child or children alone and unsu-
pervised 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
"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.
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 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
and that it secures the child seat fi rmly
on the seat of your vehicle.
For optimum installation of the "for-
wards-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.
