Child safety











General points relating to child seats

For maximum safety, please obser ve 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 carr ying 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. Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safety of your children
also depends on you.

*
The rules for carrying children are specific to
each country. Refer to the current legislation
in your country.

Child safety
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
relative to the child's body to a minimum,
even for shor t journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat
belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened
correctly on the child seat and that it secures
the child seat firmly on the seat of your
vehicle. Move the seat for wards if necessary.
For optimum installation of the "for wards-
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 discomfor t.
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.
Advice on child seats

As a safety precaution, do not leave:


- a child or children alone and
unsuper vised 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 prevent accidental opening of the doors
and rear windows, use the "Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of
the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.
Children under the age of 10 must not travel
in the "for wards-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 wards-facing" child seat is installed on
the front seat.
Other wise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were
to inflate.


Installing a booster seat

The chest par t 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, fitted with a seat belt
guide at shoulder level.

Seat belts


Front seat belts




Rear seat belts

The rear seats are each fitted with a seat belt,
three-point anchorages with iner tia reel and
force limiter (except for the centre rear seat).

buckle.

)
Check that the seat belt is fastened
correctly by pulling the strap.



Unfastening

)
Guide the seat belt as it reels in.


The front seat belts are fitted with a
pretensioning and force limiting system.
This system improves safety in the front
seats in the event of a front or side impact.
Depending on the severity of the impact, the
pretensioning system instantly tightens the seat
belts against the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when
the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the
seat belt on the chest of the occupant, so
improving their protection.
