CHILD SAFETY
83

PEUGEOT
recommends that chil-
dren should travel in these positions:
- "rearwards-facing" up to the
age of 2 on the front passen-
ger seat ,
- "forwards-facing" over the
age of 2 on the rear side seat .
For further details, see section
"Locations for child seats secured
using a 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 recommendations:
- in accordance with European regu- lations, all children under the age
of 12 or less than one metre fi fty
tall must travel in approved 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 carying 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.
CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT
"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
airbag activated.
"Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the
front passenger seat ,
it is essential that the passenger air bag
is deactivated. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the airbag were to infl ate .
Intermediate longitudinal position
* The rules for carrying children are specifi c to each country. Consult the
current legislation in your country.

CHILD SAFETY
86
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 harnesses keeping

the slack in relation to the child's
body to a minimum , even for short
journeys.
To install a child seat with the seat
belt, check that the belt has tight-
ened on the child seat and that the
child seat is held fi rmly against the
vehicle's seat.
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. 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, fi 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.
Children under the age of 10 must not
travel in the "forward facing" position
on the front passenger seat, unless the
rear seats are already occupied by other
children, cannot be used or are absent.
Deactivate the passenger airbag when
a "rear facing" child seat is installed
on the front seat. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the airbag were to infl ate.

SAFETY

The driver must ensure that pas-
sengers use the seat belts correct-
ly and that they are all restrained
securely before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles
as they will not fulfi l their role fully.
The seat belts are fi tted with an in-
ertia reel permitting automatic ad-
justment of the length of the strap
to your size. The seat belt is stored
automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that
the seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on
the pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned
in the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fi tted with an
automatic locking device which
comes into operation in the event
of a collision, emergency braking
or if the vehicle rolls over. You can
release the device by pulling fi rmly
on the strap and releasing it so that
it re-winds slightly. In order to be effective, a seat belt
must:
- be tightened as close to the body as
possible,
- be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking that it
does not twist,
- be used to restrain only one person,
- not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- not be converted or modifi ed to avoid affecting its performance.
In accordance with current safety regu-
lations, all repairs and checks must be
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer who
guarantees that the work is carried out
correctly.
Have your seat belts checked regularly
by a PEUGEOT dealer and particularly
if the straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is
positioned and reeled in correctly. Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the passen-
ger is less than 12 years old or shorter
than one and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to secure
more than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your lap.
In the event of an impact

Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impacts , the pre-
tensioning device may be triggered
before and independently of the air-
bags. Triggering of the pre-tensioners
is accompanied by a slight discharge
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic car-
tridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer.

SAFETY

AIRBAGS
The airbags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
in the event of violent collisions. They
supplement the action of the force-limit-
ing seat belts.
In this case, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side
impacts suffered in the impact detection
zones:
- in the event of a serious impact, the airbags are deployed instanta-
neously and protect the occupants
of the vehicle; immediately after the
impact, the airbags defl ate rapidly
so that they do not hinder the visibili-
ty of the occupants or their possible
exit from the vehicle,
- in the event of a minor impact or rear impact and in certain roll-over
conditions, the airbags will not be
deployed; the seat belt alone is suf-
fi cient to provide maximum protec-
tion in these situations.

The airbags do not operate when
the ignition is off.
This equipment only operates once.
If a second impact occurs (during
the same or a subsequent acci-
dent), the airbag will not operate. Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.

B. Side impact zone. Front airbags
System which protects the head and
chest of the driver and front passenger
in the event of a front impact.
The driver's airbag is incorporated in
the centre of the steering wheel; the
front passenger's airbag is incorporated
in the dashboard above the glove box.
Activation
The airbags are triggered simultaneous-
ly, unless the passenger's front airbag
is deactivated, in the event of a serious
front impact applied to all or part of the
front impact zone
A , in the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal
plane and directed from the front to the
rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag infl ates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
dashboard to cushion their forward
movement.
The deployment of one or more
airbags is accompanied by a slight
discharge of harmless smoke and
a noise, due to the activation of the
pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated
in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sen-
sitive individuals may experience
some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may
result in a slight loss of hearing for
a short time.

SAFETY
99
To assure the safety of your child,
it is imperative that the passenger
airbag is deactivated when you in-
stall a "rear facing" child seat on
the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk be-
ing seriously injured or killed if the
airbag were triggered. If both airbag warning lamps come
on continuously, do not install a
"rear facing" child seat on the front
passenger seat.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Deactivation
Only the front passenger's airbag can
be deactivated:

 with the ignition off , insert the key
in the passenger airbag deactivation
switch 1 ,

 turn it to the "OFF" position,

 then, remove the key keeping the
switch in the new position.
According to version, this warn-
ing lamp comes on either on
the instrument panel or on the
central panel when the ignition
is on and until the airbag is re-
activated. Reactivation
When you remove the child seat, turn
switch
1 to the "ON" position to reacti-
vate the airbag and so asure the safety
of your front passenger in the event of
an impact. Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on on
the instrument panel, accompa-
nied by an audible warning and
a message on the multifunction
screen, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer to have the system checked. The
airbags may no longer be triggered in
the event of a serious impact.
