CHILD SEATS Although one of PEUGEOT's main concerns when designing your vehicle, the safety of your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow these precautions:- all children under the age of 10* must travel in a special approved child seat*, adapted to their weight, in a seat fitted wit h
a seat belt.
- front passenger seat*: children under the age of 10 must not travel in the "forwards facing" position**. The "rearwards facing" position is permitted. In this position, it is compulsory to disarm the passenger air bag.
After carrying out numerous tests, PEUGEOT recommends the following systems: Up to 1 year (up to 13 kg) The seat is installed in the rear-facing position in the front or in the rear using a three-point seat belt.
From 9 months to 3 years (9 to 18 kg) The seat is installed in the forward-facing position in the rear using a two or three-point seat belt.
From 3 to 6 years (15 to 25 kg) The seat is installed in the forward-facing position in the rear with a two or three point seat belt. For the safety of your child, the seat and the restraining cushion must never be separated.

Never leave a child or an animal in a vehicle whichis exposed to the sun andhas the windows closed.
Never leave the keys within reach
of children inside the car. Disarm the passenger air bag when installing a 'rearwardsfacing' child seat on the front pas-senger seat. The child would risk being killed or seriously injured were the air bagto inflate. Observe strictly the recommenda- tions for assembling the child seatas shown in the child seat instruc-tions.From 6 to 10 years (22 to 36 kg)
The seat is installed in the forward-facing position in the rear with a three- point seat belt. The height and width of the seat back must be adjusted according to the age and build of your child. From 22 kg, the booster may be used on its own.
Remember, even for short journeys, to fasten the three-point seat belts or the child seat straps, keeping the slack in relation to the child's body to a minimum.
To prevent the doors from opening accidentally, use the child-lock.
Also, do not open the rear windows more than a third.
* According to current legislation in the country of destination.
** Unless the rear seats are already occupied by other children or the rear seats cannot be used (because they are missing or folded down). In this case leave the air bag active.

SEAT BELTS
To
adjust the height of the
front seat belts ☞ To lower the attachment point,
press the upper control and slide it downwards.
☞ To raise the attachment point,
slide the control upwards.
To lock the seat belts
☞ Pull the strap, then insert thebuckle into the stalk. Pre-tensioning front seat belts Safety in the event of a frontal impact has been improved by the introduc-tion of pre-tensioning front seat belts.Depending on the seriousness of theimpact, the pre-tensioning systeminstantly tightens the seat belt firmlyagainst the body of the occupant. The pre-tensioning seat belts are armed when the ignition is on. Rear seat belts Minibus:
the rear seats are all fitted
with three-point inertia reel seat belts. Combi: the rear side seats are fitted
with three-point inertia reel seat
belts. The centre seats are fitted withlap seat belts
To be effective, a seat belt
must be tightened as close to the body as pos-sible.
Depending on the nature and theseriousness of the impact, thepre-tensioners may be triggeredbefore and independently of theair bags. In all cases of an air bag being triggered, the air bag warning lighton the instrument panel comeson. After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. The system has been designed to be fully operational for ten years.
For greater safety, have it chec- ked by a PEUGEOT dealer withinten years of the date of first regis-tration of the vehicle.

AIR BAGS The air bags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occupantsin the event of serious collisions.They work in conjunction with theforce-limiting seat belts. The electronic detectors register and analyse any abrupt deceleration ofthe vehicle: if the triggering thresholdis reached, the air bags inflate ins-tantly and protect the occupants ofthe vehicle. Immediately after the impact, the air bags deflate rapidly so that they donot hinder the visibility of the occu-pants nor their exit if necessary fromthe vehicle. The air bags are not deployed in the case of collisions which are notserious, for which the seat belt is suf-ficient to ensure maximum protec-
tion. The seriousness of a collisiondepends on the nature of the obs-tacle and the speed of the vehicle atthe moment of the collision. Air bags only operate when the ignition is switched on. Note:
the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant. 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 passen-ger air bag is disarmed. Front air bag fault
If this warning light comes on on the instrument panel,
contact a PEUGEOT dealerto have the system chec-ked. Disarming the passenger air bag*
