MISFUEL PREVENTION
(DIESEL) *
Mechanical device which prevents fi lling
the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol.
It avoids the risk of engine damage that
can result from fi lling with the wrong fuel.
Located in the fi ller neck, the misfuel
prevention device appears when the
fi ller cap is removed.
Operation
When a petrol fi ller nozzle is introduced
into the fuel fi ller neck of your Diesel
vehicle, it comes into contact with the
fl ap. The system remains closed and
prevents fi lling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel
type fi ller nozzle. It remains possible to use a fuel
can to fi ll the tank.
In order to ensure a good fl ow of
fuel, do not place the nozzle of the
fuel can in direct contact with the fl ap
of the misfuel prevention device and
pour slowly.
* According to country of sale. Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may
be different in other countries, the
presence of the misfuel preven-
tion device may make refuelling
impossible.
Before travelling abroad, we
recommend that you check with
the PEUGEOT dealer network,
whether your vehicle is suitable
for the fuel pumps in the country in
which you want to travel.

CHILD SAFETY
86
207CC_EN_CHAP05_SECURITE ENFANTS_ED01-2014
PEUGEOT recommends that chil-
dren should travel in these positions:
- " rearward facing" up to the age of 2 on the front passen-
ger seat ,
- " forward facing" over the age of 2 on the outer rear seat .
For further details, see section
"Locations for child seats secured
using a seat belt".
GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS
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 follow
these recommendations:
- in accordance with European regu- lations, all children under the age
of 12 or less than one metre fi fty
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 carying children
are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the " rearward fac-
ing" position both in the front and
in the rear.
CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT
"Forwards facing"
When a "forward 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.
"Rearward facing"
When a "rearward facing" child seat is
installed on the
front passenger seat ,
it is essential that the passenger air bag
is deactivated. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the airbag were to infl ate .
Intermediate longitudinal position
* The rules for carrying children are specifi c to each country. Consult the
current legislation in your country.
