SAFETY
Airbags
Good practice

If your vehicle is fitted with front, lateral
and curtain airbags, in order for these to
be fully effective, observe the following
safety rules:
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (child, animal,
object...).
This could hamper the operation of the
airbags or injure the occupants.
All work on the airbag systems is strictly
prohibited unless it is carried out by qualified
personnel of the PEUGEOT network.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by its spokes or resting your hands on the
centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the
dashboard.
Smoke as little as possible; deployment of
the airbags can cause burns or the risk of
injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel
or hit it violently.


Lateral airbags

Only put approved covers on the front seats.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not fix or attach anything to the front seat
backs. This could cause injury to the chest
or arms when the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body
any nearer to the door than necessary.
Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the pillars or
the roof. This could cause injury to the head
when the curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the bolts from the grab
handles installed on the roof, they play a
part in securing the curtain airbags. 103103

Child safety


GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO
CHILD SEATS

Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria
when designing your vehicle, the safety of
your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow these
precautions:


- all children under the age of 12 or less
than one metre fifty tall must travel in
approved child seats suited to their
weight, on seats fitted 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" position
both in the front and in the rear,

- the passenger must not travel with a
child on their lap.



"Rearwards-facing"
Recommended on the rear seats
up to 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
deactivated. Otherwise, the child would risk
being seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were to inflate.
"Forwards-facing"
Recommended on the rear seats
over the age of 2.
When a "forwards-facing" child
seat is installed on the front passenger seat,
leave the passenger airbag activated.

SAFETY


Child safety


Refer to chapter 5, "Airbags" section.
The child seats function and the
passenger airbag deactivation function
are common to the entire PEUGEOT range.
If the passenger airbag is not deactivated,
the installation of a "rearwards-facing" child
seat in the front is strictly prohibited.
If your vehicle is fitted with this function, the
passenger airbag must be deactivated using
the trip computer MODE button.

The rules for carrying children are
specific to each country. Consult the
current legislation in your country.
Please consult the list of seats approved
in your country. The Isofix mountings, the
rear seats, the passenger airbag and the
deactivation of this airbag depend on the
version sold.

Passenger airbag OFF

Refer to the advice given on the label
present on both sides of the passenger's
sun visor.

To assure the safety of your child, you must
deactivate the passenger's front airbag when
you install a child seat in the rearwards
facing position on the front passenger's seat.
Otherwise, there is a risk that the child could
be seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were deployed.

Child safety


"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS

Your vehicle has been approved
in accordance with the new
ISOFIX regulation. The mountings comprise three rings for each
seat:


- two front rings, located between the
vehicle seat back and cushion, indicated
by a label,

- a rear ring, for securing the upper
strap referred to as the TOP TETHER,
indicated by another label.
This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in
your vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two
latches which are secured easily on the two
front rings.
Some also have an upper strap which is
attached to the rear ring.
To attach this strap, raise the vehicle seat's
head restraint then pass the hook between
its rods. Then fix the hook on the rear ring
and tighten the upper strap.
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises 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 location of
the ISOFIX child seats. If fitted on your vehicle, the regulation
ISOFIX mountings are located by labels.
