CHILD SAFETY
81
The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child's protection in the event of an
accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts
or the child seat harness keeping
the slack in relation to the child's
body to a minimum , even for short
journeys.
For optimum installation of the "for-
ward facing" child seat, ensure that
the back of the child seat is in con-
tact with the back of the vehicle's
seat and that the head restraint
does not cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be re-
moved, ensure that it is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from
being thrown around the vehicle in
the event of sharp braking.
Children under the age of 10 must
not travel in the "forward facing" po-
sition on the front passenger seat,
unless the rear seats are already
occupied by other children, cannot
be used or are absent.
Disarm the passenger air bag when
a "rear facing" child seat is installed
on the front seat. Otherwise, the
child would risk being seriously in-
jured or killed if the air bag were to
inl ate. Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder with-
out 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, i tted
with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and
unsupervised 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.

To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, i t side blinds on the
rear windows.

i
CHILD SAFETY
82

PEUGEOT recommends that chil-
dren should travel in these positions:
- "rearwards-facing" up to the
age of 2 on the front passenger
seat ,
- "forwards-facing" over the
age of 2 on the rear side seat .
For further details, see section "Lo-
cation of child seats secured using
the seat belt".
GENERAL POINTS RELATING
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 follow
these precautions:
- in accordance with Directive 2003/20, all children under the
age of 12 or less than one metre
i fty tall must travel in approved
child seats suited to their weight ,
on seats i tted with a seat belt or
ISOFIX mountings * .
- statistically, the safest seats in
your vehicle for the transportation
of 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.
INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT
USING A THREE POINT SEAT
BELT
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat ,
adjust the vehicle's seat to the interme-
diate longitudinal position with the seat
back upright and leave the passenger
air bag armed.
"Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the
front passenger seat ,
it is essential that the passenger air
bag is disarmed. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the air bag were to inl ate .
Intermediate longitudinal position
* The rules for transporting children are specii c to each country. Consult the current legislation in your country.
