Always wear your seat belt when trav-
elling in your vehicle. You must also
comply with the legislation of the par -
ticular country you are in.
Seat belts
I n c o r r e c t l y a d j u s t e d o r
twisted seat belts may
cause injuries in the event
of an accident.
Use one seat belt per person,
whether child or adult.
Even pregnant women should wear
a seat belt. In this case, ensure that
the lap belt is not exerting too much
pressure on the abdomen, but do
not allow any slack.
Before starting, first adjust your driv-
ing position, then ask all occupants
to adjust their seat belts to ensure
optimum protection.
Adjusting your driving
position
– Sit well back in your seat (having
removed your coat or jacket etc.).
This is essential to ensure your back
is positioned correctly;
– adjust the distance between the
seat and the pedals. Your seat
should be as far back as possible
while still allowing you to fully de -
press the pedals. The seatback
should be adjusted so that your arms
are slightly bent when you hold the
steering wheel;
– adjust the position of your head -
rest. For maximum safety, your head
must be as close as possible to the
headrest;
– Adjust the height of the seat. This
adjustment allows you to select the
seat position which offers you the
best possible view.
– adjust the position of the steering
wheel.
Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the
seatback.
The shoulder strap 1 should be as close
as possible to the base of the neck but
not on it.
Lap belt 2 should be worn flat over the
thighs and against the pelvis.
The seat belt must be worn as close to
the body as possible. Eg: avoid wearing
heavy clothing or keeping bulky objects
under the belts, etc.

The ISOFIX anchorage
points have been exclu-
sively designed for child
seats with the ISOFIX
system. Never fit a different type of
child seat, seat belt or other objects
to these anchorage points.
Check that nothing is obstructing
the anchorage points.
If your vehicle has been involved in
a road accident, have the ISOFIX
anchorage points checked and re -
place your child seat.
The third ring is used to attach the
upper strap on some child seats.
Raise headrest A and pass the belt be-
tween the headrest guides.
Raise cover 3 on the rear parcel shelf.
Fix hook 5 to ring 4.
Pull the belt so that the back of the child
seat comes into contact with the vehicle
seatback.
The two rings
1 are located between
the seatback and the seat base of the
seat and are identified by a marking.
To ensure your child seat can be easily
fitted and locked on rings 1, use access
guides 2 on the child seat.

Some seats are not suitable for fitting
child seats. The diagram on the follow -
ing page shows you how to attach a
child seat.
The types of child seats indicated may
not be available. Before using a differ-
ent child seat, check with the manufac-
turer that it can be fitted.

chilD SAFetY : fitting a child seat (1/4)
in the rear side seat
A carrycot can be installed across the
vehicle and will take up at least two
seats. Position the child with his or her
feet nearest the door.
Move the front seat as far forward as
possible to install a rear-facing child
seat, then move back the seat in front
as far as it will go, although without al-
lowing it to come into contact with the
child seat.
For the safety of the child in the for -
ward-facing seat, do not move the seat
in front back past the middle of the
runner, do not tilt the seatback too far
(maximum of 25°) and raise the seat as
much as possible.
Check that the forward-facing child seat
is resting against the back of the vehi-
cle seat and that the headrest of the ve-
hicle is not obstructing its use.
in the front seat
The laws concerning children travel
-
ling in the front passenger seat differ in
every country. Consult the legislation in
force and follow the indications on the
diagram on the following page.
Before fitting a child seat in this seat (if
authorised):
– lower the seat belt as far as possible;
– move the seat as far back as possi-
ble;
– gently tilt the seatback away from
vertical (approximately 25°);
– on equipped vehicles, raise the seat
base as far as possible.
Do not change these settings after the
child seat is installed.
r i S K O F D eAt h O r
S eri OUS iNJU rY: before
installing a rear-facing child
seat in this seat, check that
the airbag has been deactivated
(refer to “Child safety: front passen-
ger airbag deactivation/activation”
Section 1).
Fit the child seat in a rear
seat wherever possible.
Check that when installing
the child seat in the vehicle
it is not at risk of coming loose from
its base.
If you have to remove the headrest,
check that it is correctly stored so
that it does not come loose under
harsh braking or impact.
Always attach the child seat to the
vehicle even if it is not in use so that
it does not come loose under harsh
braking or impact.
Make sure that the child
seat or the child’s feet do
not prevent the front seat
from locking correctly. Refer
to the information on the “Front seat”
in Section 1.
