vent the seat from returning to
its initial
longitudinal and angle
position.
Depending on your seat's settings, it
is possible that the access to the rear
seats manoeuvre may be limited. In
this case, the seat settings must be
altered fi rst.
The seat must return to this position
for correct locking of the seat back.

position correctly and never drive with
the seat back disengaged (free of any
movement).
If the seat back jams on repositioning,
operate the handle A again to release
it and return it to its initial position.

Memorising driving positions
The electrical adjustments of the driver's
seat, steering wheel and exterior mirrors
are memorised.
Two driving positions can be memo-
rised using buttons M/1and M/2 . An audible signal confi rms that a position
has been memorised.
Memorising a new position cancels
the previous one.
Recalling a memorised driving
position
During access to the rear
seats, the memorising and
recalling of the driving posi-
tions are deactivated.
Vehicle moving

 Keep button 1 or 2 pressed down
until the bleep indicates that set-
ting of the corresponding memo-
rised position is complete.
REAR HEAD RESTRAINTS
The rear head restraints have a high
position for use and a low position for
storing.
They can also be removed.
To remove them, pull upwards fully
and press the lug.
Never drive with the head re-
straints removed; they must be
in place and adjusted correctly.

is started.

REAR SEATS
To fold down the rear left seat or the
rear right seat, always start with the
seat, never with the seat back (risk of
damage):

 move the front seat(s) forward if
necessary,

 place the head restraints in the low
position or remove them if necessary,
Check that the seat belt strap is positioned correctly at the side of
the seat back,

 release the front of the seat cush-
ion 1 by passing your hands under-
neath and lifting at each end A ,

 lift the front of the seat cushion 1 ,

 tilt the seat cushion 1 against the
front seat(s),

 pull control 3 forwards to unlock
the seat back 2 ,

 fold down the seat back 2 (left 1/3
or right 2/3).
Note: the one-piece seat cushion 1
can be removed with care to increase
the volume of the load space.
Squeeze the seat cushion fi xings to
detach them from their fastenings.
When repositioning:

 fold up the seat back 2 and lock it
(the red marker of control 3 should
no longer be visible),

 fold up the seat 1 ,

 refi t the head restraints if they were
removed.
Locking/unlocking the access to the boot via the rear seats
Your vehicle's boot can be isolated
from the passenger compartment.
The red indicator on the control 3
should no longer be visible. If it is,
push the seat fully.
Insert the ignition key in the lock 4 .
Transporting long objects
In exceptional circumstances , a rear
seat back can be folded without folding
the seat cushion 1 in order to transport
long, light objects (risk of damage to
the seat cushion).
When putting the seat backs
and the seat cushion back in
place, ensure that they are
secured correctly to guaran-
tee your safety and take care not to
trap the seat belts.
When transporting long objects,
do not place a load weighing
more than 30 kg on the rear of
the seat back.

Do not place blunt objects on the rear of
the seat back as this could damage it.

Although one of PEUGEOT's main cri-
teria when designing your vehicle, the
safety of your children also depends
on you.
INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT USING A THREE POINT SEAT BELT

Intermediate longitudinal
position
** The rules for transporting children are
specifi c to each country. Consult the
current legislation in your country.
GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS
"Forwards-facing"
"Rearwards-facing"
For maximum safety, please
follow these precautions:
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 in-
jured or killed if the air bag were to
infl ate .
-
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 the transpor-
tation 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.
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.
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 air bag armed ** .
* According to model.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
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.
Disarm the passenger air bag * when a
"rear facing" child seat is installed on
the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the air bag
were to infl ate. As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and un-
supervised 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, fi t side blinds on the
rear windows.
* According to country.
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
"forward facing" child seat, ensure that
the back of the child seat is in contact
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
removed, 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
without 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 t-
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level.
