Safety
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's
protection in the event of an accident.
Observe strictly the fitting instructions provided with the child seat. For information regarding the ISOFIX child seats which can be installed in your vehicle, refer to the table showing the locations for
installing ISOFIX child seats.
To secure the child seat to the top tether: - Remove and stow the head restraint before installing the child seat on the vehicle seat (refit it when the child seat is removed). - Pass the child seat upper strap over the top of the seat backrest, centred between the holes for the head restraint rods. - Attach the upper strap to the ring B . - Tighten the upper strap.
If your vehicle has a spare wheel of the same size as the four wheels, follow the procedure below: Pass the strap and buckle over the boot floor (in the slot). Raise the boot floor. Lift out the upper storage box, located alongside the wheel. Attach the buckle to the TOP TETHERring. Refit the storage box and boot floor.
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 easily secured on the two
rings A . Some also have an upper strap which is attached to ring B .

Practical information
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when braking.
The snow chains must be fitted only to the front wheels. They must never be fitted to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force in your country on the use of snow chains and the maximum running speed authorised.
Avoid driving on roads that have been cleared of snow, to avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and the road sur face. It is recommended that before you leave, you practise fitting the snow chains on a level and dry sur face. If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, check that no part of the chain or its fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
You can also use non-slip tyre covers. For more information on snow chains, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Advice on installation
If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face on the side of the road. Apply the parking brake and position any wheel chocks to prevent movement of your vehicle. Fit the chains following the instructions provided by the manufacturer. Move off gently and drive for a few moments, without exceeding 30 mph (50 km/h). Stop your vehicle and check that the snow chains are correctly tightened.

Technical data
Identifi cation markings Various visible markings for the identification of your vehicle.
A. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) under the bonnet. This number is engraved on the chassis near the right hand front wheel arch.
The tyre pressures must be checked when the tyres are cold, at least once a month.
If the tyre pressures are too low, this
increases fuel consumption.
B. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the windscreen lower cross member. This number is indicated on a self-adhesive label which is visible through the windscreen.
C. Manufacturer's label. This self-destroying label affixed to the centre pillar, right or left hand side, contains the following information. - the manufacturer's name, - the European whole vehicle type approval number, - the vehicle identification number (VIN), - the maximum authorised weight (gross vehicle weight), - the maximum authorised weight with trailer (gross train weight), - the maximum front axle weight, - the maximum rear axle weight.
D. Tyre/paint label. This label, affixed to the centre pillar, on the driver's side, contains the following information. - the tyre inflation pressures with and without load, - the tyre sizes (including the tyre load index and speed rating), - the inflation pressure for the spare wheel, - the paint colour code.
