ADVICE ON CHILD
SEATS
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, i t-
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level.
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 prevent accidental opening of the
doors, use the "Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear win-
dows by more than one third.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, i t side blinds on the
rear windows.
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.
For optimum installation of the "for-
ward 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.
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 inl ate.
"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS
This seat is i tted with ISOFIX mountings.
These are two rings located between
the seat back and the seat cushion.
The ISOFIX child seats are i tted with
two locks which are secured easily on
these rings.
This ISOFIX mounting system guaran-
tees reliable, safe and fast i tting of the
child seat in your vehicle.
If a child is not installed in a
vehicle correctly, the child’s
protection in the event of a
collision will be compromised.

SEAT BELTS
The rear seats are all i tted with a
three-point inertia reel seat belt with
force limiter.
Safety in the event of a frontal
impact has been improved by
the introduction of seat belts
with pre-tensioner and force
limiter connected to the front air bags.
Depending on the seriousness of the
impact, the pre-tensioning system in-
stantly tightens the seat belts i rmly
against the bodies of the occupants.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are
armed when the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure
of the seat belt on the body of the oc-
cupant in the event of an accident.
With the vehicle station-
ary, when the ignition is
switched on, the warn-
ing light comes on if the
driver and/or the front
passenger has not fas-
tened his seat belt.

Before moving off, the driver
must ensure that all passen-
gers have fastened their seat
belts.
When the vehicle is stationary, igni-
tion on, if the driver and/or the front
passenger has not fastened his
seat belt, the warning light on the
instrument panel comes on, then
from approximately 12 mph (20 km/h) and for
two minutes, this warning light l ashes accom-
panied by an audible signal which increases
in volume. Once these two minutes have
elapsed, the warning light remains on until the
driver or front passenger fastens his seat belt.
This warning light is always accompanied by a
message on the multifunction display.
When the vehicle is moving, the warning light
comes on if the driver or front passenger un-
fastens his seat belt.

Note: a bag or a pet placed on the front pas-
senger seat may trigger the lighting of this
warning light.

Wherever you are seated in
the vehicle, always fasten
your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as
they will not fuli l their role fully.
To prevent this, the rear seat belt buck-
les are i tted with a locating tab.
The seat belts are i tted with an inertia
reel permitting automatic adjustment
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 rolled up 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 i tted with an auto-
matic locking device which comes into
operation in the event of a collision or
emergency braking. You can release
the device by pulling rapidly on the
strap and releasing it. In order to be effective, a seat belt:
- must be tightened as close to the
body as possible,
- must restrain one adult only,
- must not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- must be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking that
it does not twist,
- must not be transformed or modii ed to avoid altering its performance.
In accordance with current safety reg-
ulations, all repairs and checks must
be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer
who guarantees that the work is car-
ried 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 rolled up correctly.
Rear central seat belt

 Pull the belt located between the
two head restraints at the left rear.

 Insert the i xed buckle 2 in the

To release it, press the black button of
the locking clasp.
The detection of the unfas-
tening of the rear seat belts
is deactivated if the ignition is
switched off or if one of the ve-
hicle’s doors is opened.
If one of the rear passengers
has unfastened his seat belt, the
warning light on the instrument
panel comes on if the engine is
running, then from approximately
12 mph (20 km/h) and for two minutes, this
warning light l ashes accompanied by an
audible signal which increases in volume.
Once these two minutes have elapsed, the
warning light remains on until the rear pas-
senger fastens his seat belt.
This warning light is always accompanied
by a message on the multifunction display.
When the vehicle is moving, the warning
light comes on if one of the rear passen-
gers unfastens his seat belt.

AIR BAGS
The air bags have been designed to
maximise the safety of the occupants
(with the exception of the rear centre
passenger) in the event of serious col-
lisions; they work in conjunction with
the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, the
electronic detectors record and analyse
the front and side impacts suffered in the
impact detection zones (see diagram): in
the event of a serious impact, the air bags
inl ate instantly and protect the occupants
of the vehicle (with the exception of the
rear centre passenger).
FRONT AIR BAGS
These are folded in the centre of the
steering wheel for the driver and in the
fascia for the front passenger. They
are deployed simultaneously, except in
cases where the air bag is disarmed, in
the event of a serious front impact applied
in the impact zone A in the longitudinal
centreline, on a horizontal plane and from
the front towards the rear of the vehicle.
The air bag inl ates between the front oc-
cupant of the vehicle and the fascia to
cushion his forward movement. In this
way, the air bags limit the risk of injury to
the head and chest.

Recommendations for
children:
* According to model.
This equipment will only oper-
ate once. If a second impact
occurs (during the same or a
subsequent accident), the air
bag will not operate.
- use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one metre i fty,
- do not use the strap-guide * when a child seat is installed.
- never use the same seat belt to secure more than one person,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap.

Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impacts , the pre-
tensioning device may be triggered
before and independently of the air
bags.
In all cases, the air bag warning light
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if necessary
replaced, by a PEUGEOT dealer. Impact detection zones

A. Front impact zone.

B. Side impact zone.
Immediately after the impact, the air
bags del ate rapidly, so that they do
not hinder the visibility of the occu-
pants nor their possible exit from the
vehicle.
The air bags will not be deployed in
collisions which are not serious, rear
impacts or in certain roll-over condi-
tions. The seat belt is sufi cient to
provide maximum protection in these
situations.

Air bags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
Note: the triggering of an air bag or air
bags is accompanied by a slight dis-
charge of harmless smoke and a noise,
due to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
This gas may cause slight irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time.
