CHILD SAFETY: fitting a child seat (2/11)
In the rear 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 move the seat
backwards as far as possible.
Check that the child seat is resting
against the back of the vehicle seat and
that the headrest of the vehicle is not
obstructing its use.
For 7-seater vehicles, the second row
rear seats must be pushed forward
before a child is seated in the third row
rear seats.In the rear centre seat
Some child seats are too wide to allow
access to the seat belt buckles. Check
that your child seat can be fitted in this
seat.
When fitting an ISOFIX child seat in
this place, ensure that the two seat
belt buckles are placed flat under the
child seat, except in the case of booster
seats attached to the ISOFIX locks,
whose fitting is authorised
Ensure 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 or “Rear seat operation”
in Section 3.
The floor of your vehicle
has storage spaces. Before
installing a child seat with
a floor support, ensure that
this seat can be correctly installed
by consulting the list of compatible
vehicles supplied with the child seat.
Risk of serious injury in the event of
sudden braking or accident.
When fitting a child seat
(Group 2 or 3 booster seat),
check that the seat belts op-
erate (wind) correctly: refer
to Section 1 “Rear seat belts”. If
necessary, adjust the position of the
vehicle seat.

Front passenger air bag
deactivation
You must deactivate certain devices
in addition to the front passenger seat
belt before fitting a child seat in the front
passenger seat.
The front passenger air bag
must only be deactivated or
activated when the vehicle
is stationary.
If it is interfered with when the ve-
hicle is being driven, indicator lights
å and © will come on.

DANGER
Since front passenger
airbag triggering and the
position of a rear-facing
child seat are incompatible, NEVER
use a restraining device for rear-
facing children on a seat with an
ACTIVATED AIRBAG in front of it.
This provides a risk of DEATH or
SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD.A

vehicle is stationary, push and turn
lock 1 to the ON position.
With the ignition on, it is
essential to
check that the
