SAFETY

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.












GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT


"Forwards-facing"
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.
"Rearwards-facing"
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 injured or
killed if the airbag were to infl ate
.

*
The rules for carrying children are
specifi c to each country. Refer to the
current legislation in your country. Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria
when designing your vehicle, the safety of
your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please observe
the following recommendations:


- 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 ap-
proved 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 children
are the rear seats,


- a child weighing less than 9 kg must
travel in the "rearwards-facing" po-
sition both in the front and in the
rear.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS


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:


- 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.

The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child’s protection in the event of an ac-
cident.
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 vehicle’s seat.
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 "for-
ward 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.
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.
Deactivate the passenger’s airbag
when a "rear 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.
Do not use the passenger’s "AIRWAVE"
system if a child seat is installed on the
front seat.
