ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
Children at the front Installing a booster seat
You mst remove the head restraint be-
fore installing a child seat with backrest
to a passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored
or attached securely to prevent it from
being thrown around the vehicle in the
event of sharp braking. Refi t the head
restraint when the child seat is removed.
The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child's protection in the event of an ac-
cident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or
seat belt buckle under the child seat,
as this could destabilise it.
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 rm-
ly on the seat of your vehicle. If your
passenger seat is adjustable, move it
forwards if necessary.
At rear seating positions, always leave
suffi cient space between the front
seat and:
- a "rearward facing" child seat,
- the child's feet for a child seat fi tted
"forward facing".
To do this, move the front seat for-
wards and, if necessary, move its
backrest into the upright position.
For optimum installation of the "for-
ward facing" child seat, ensure that
the back of the child seat is as close
as possible to the backrest of the ve-
hicle's seat, in contact if possible. The legislation on carrying children on
the front passenger seat is specifi c to
each country. Refer to the legislation in
force in your country.
Children of under 10 years should not
be carried in the "forward facing" posi-
tion on the front passenger seat, unless
the rear seats are already occupied by
children or of the rear seats are unus-
able or not present.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag
when a "rearward facing" child seat is
installed on the front seat. Otherwise
the child would risk being seriously
injured or killed if the airbag were de-
ployed. 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.

The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child's protection in the event of an
accident.
For information on the possibilities
for installing ISOFIX child seats in
your vehicle, refer to the summary
table.
"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS
There are three rings for each seat:
- two rings A , located between the vehicle seat back and cushion, indi-
cated by a marking, - a ring B behind the seat for fi xing
the upper strap, referred to as the
Top Tether .
The top tether is used to secure the up-
per strap of child seats that have one.
This arrangement limits the forward tip-
ping of the child seat in the event of a
front impact.
This ISOFIX mounting system provides
fast, reliable and safe fi tting of the child
seat in your vehicle.
Your vehicle has been approved in ac-
cordance with the
latest ISOFIX regu-
lation .
The seats, represented below, are fi tted
with regulation ISOFIX mountings:
The ISOFIX child seats are fi tted with
two latches which are secured on the
two rings A .
Some seats also have an upper strap ,
known as the Top Tether, which is at-
tached to ring B . To secure the child seat to the top tether:
- remove and stow the head restraint
before installing the child seat in
this seating position (refi t it once the
child seat has been removed),
- pass the strap of the child seat over the top of the seat backrest, centred
between the apertures for the head
restraint rods,
- fi x the hook of the upper strap to the ring B ,
- tighten the upper strap.
Follow the instructions for fi tting
child seats contained in the seat
manufacturer's installation guide.

ch the backrest.
Follow the instructions for fi tting the child seat given in the seat manufacturer's installation guide.

The driver must ensure that passen-
gers use the seat belts correctly and
that they are all restrained securely
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt
buckles as they will not fulfi l their
role fully.
The seat belts are fi tted with an in-
ertia reel permitting automatic ad-
justment of the length of the strap
to your size. The seat belt is stowed
automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that
the seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on
the pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned
in the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fi tted with an
automatic locking device which
comes into operation in the event
of a collision, emergency braking
or if the vehicle rolls over. You can
release the device by pulling fi rmly
on the strap and releasing it so that
it reels in slightly. In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
- be tightened as close to the body as
possible,
- be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking that it
does not twist,
- be used to restrain only one person,
- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- not be converted or modifi ed to avoid affecting its performance.
In accordance with current safety regula-
tions, for all repairs on your vehicle, go to
a qualifi ed workshop with the skills and
equipment needed, which a PEUGEOT
dealer is able to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regu-
larly by a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop, particularly if the straps
show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is
positioned and reeled in correctly. Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the passen-
ger is less than 12 years old or shorter
than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to se-
cure more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your lap.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impact , the pre-
tensioning device may be deployed
before and independently of the air-
bags. Deployment of the pretensioners
is accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic car-
tridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

To assure the safety of your child,
it is imperative that the passenger's
airbag is deactivated when you in-
stall a "rearward facing" child seat
on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk be-
ing seriously injured or killed if the
airbag were deployed. If both airbag warning lamps come
on continuously, do not install a
"rearward facing" child seat on the
front passenger seat.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Deactivation
Only the front passenger's airbag can
be deactivated:
with the ignition off , insert the key
in the passenger airbag deactivation
switch 1 ,
turn it to the "OFF" position,
then, remove the key keeping the switch in the new position.
According to version, this warn-
ing lamp comes on either in
the instrument panel or in the
central panel when the ignition
is on and until the airbag is re-
activated. Reactivation
When you remove a "rearward facing"
child seat, turn switch
1 to the "ON" po-
sition to reactivate the airbag and so as-
sure the safety of your front passenger
in the event of an impact. Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel, accompa-
nied by an audible warning and
a message in the multifunction
screen, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop without
delay to have the system checked. The
airbags may no longer be deployed in
the event of a serious impact.

207CC_EN_CHAP06_SECURITE_ED01-2014
For the airbags to be fully
effective, observe the following
safety rules:
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child,
pet, object...). This could hamper the
operation of the airbags or injure the
occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has
been stolen or broken into, have the
airbag systems checked.
All work on the airbag system must be
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.
Even if all of the precautions men-
tioned are observed, a risk of injury
or of slight burns to the head, chest
or arms when an airbag is deployed
cannot be ruled out. Indeed, the bag
infl ates almost instantly (within a few
milliseconds) then defl ates within the
same time discharging the hot gas via
openings provided for this purpose.
* According to country. Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your ha\
nds on
the centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the dashboard.
Do not smoke as 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.
Do not attach or stick anything to the steering wheel or dashboard, this\
could
cause injury if the airbags are deployed.
Knee airbag *
Do not sit with your knees any nearer to the steering wheel than necessa\
ry.
Lateral airbags
Only use approved covers on the seats, compatible with the deployment of\
the
lateral airbags. For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your
vehicle, contact a PEUGEOT dealer (see the "Accessories" section) .
Do not attach or stick anything to the seat backs. This could cause injury to the
chest or arms if the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.
