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 observe
the following recommendations:
-
in accordance with European reg-
ulations, all children under the
age of 12 or less than one and a
half metres tall must travel in ap-
proved 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 carrying children
are the rear seats,
-
a child weighing less than 9 kg
must travel in the "rearwards-fac-
ing" position both in the front and
in the rear.
PEUGEOT recommends that
children should travel in the
outer rear seats of your ve-
hicle:
-
"rearwards-facing" up to the
age of 2,
-
"forwards-facing" over the age of 2.
* The rules for carrying children are
specifi c to each country. Refer to the
legislation in force in your country.

CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT
"Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat ,
it is essential that the passenger airbag
is deactivated. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the airbag were to infl ate .
Ensure that the seat belt is
correctly tensioned.
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat ,
adjust the vehicle's seat to the fully
back and highest position with the seat
back upright and leave the passenger's
airbag activated.
