Child Safety; Child Seats - PEUGEOT 107 Handbook

General points
relating to child seats
Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria
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
regulations, all children under the
age of 12 or less than one and
a half metres tall must travel in
approved child seats suited to
their weight , on seats fitted 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-
facing" position both in the front
and in the rear.
PEUGEOT recommends that children should
travel in the rear seats of your vehicle:
- "rearwards-facing" up to the age of 2,
- "forwards-facing" over the age of 2.

"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 inflate.
* The rules for carrying children are specific to
each country. Refer to the current legislation
in your country.
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is installed
on the front passenger seat , adjust the
vehicle's seat to the intermediate longitudinal
position with the seat back upright and leave
the passenger airbag activated.
