GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safe- ty of your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow these precautions:
- Since 1992, all children under the age of 10 must travel in approved child
seats* suited to their weight , on seats fitted with a seat belt.
In order to recognise a child seat which conforms to current legislation, check
that it bears an orange label indicating the weight range for its use and its approval number .
- A child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the rearwards facing posi-
tion both in the front and in the rear.
- The safest seats in your vehicle for the transportation of children are therear seats.
- If a child is travelling on a booster seat, check that the lap section of the seat belt passes over the child's thighs correctly. The chest section of the seat beltmust be positioned on the child's shoulder without touching the neck. PEU-
GEOT recommends that you use a booster seat with a back, fitted with a seatbelt guide.
- Remember to fasten the seat belt or the child seat harness keeping the slack
in relation to the child's body to a minimum , even for short journeys.
* According to current legislation in the country.
** Consult the relevant administration in your country for information regarding the rules for transporting children on the front passenger seat.

"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS The one third side of the rear seat of your vehicle is fitted with ISOFIX
mountings . These are 2 rings loca-
ted between the seat back and seatcushion of your vehicle. The ISOFIX child seats are fitted
with 2 locks which fit onto these rings. The ISOFIX child seat approved for
PEUGEOT vehicles and sold by the
PEUGEOT network is the

KIDDY* child seat. It can be installed
in the rearwards facing position frombirth to 13 kg and in the forwards
facing position from 9 to 18 kg. In the front, in the rearwards facing position, the front passenger seatmust be moved as far forwards aspossible so that the shell of the childseat is in contact with, or as close aspossible to, the fascia.
In the rear, in the forwards facing position, the front passenger seatmust be in the intermediate longitudi-nal position, with the seat backupright. The ISOFIX KIDDY child seat mayalso be used where there are no Iso-fix mountings.In this case it is com-pulsory to attach it to the vehicle'sseat using the three-point seat beltfor both the rearwards facing and for-wards facing positions.
If the ISOFIX KIDDY seat is fitted in the rearwards facing positionon the front passenger seat, it isessential to disarm the passengerair bag.
