Rules for transporting children on the front passenger seat** Children under the age of 10 must not travel in the forwards facingposition, unless the rear seats arealready occupied by other childrenor the rear seats cannot be used(absent or folded). In this case,adjust the front passenger seat tothe intermediate position and leavethe passenger air bag armed. The transportation of children in the rearwards facing position is permit-ted. In this position, it is essential todisarm the passenger air bag.Otherwise, the child would risk beingkilled or seriously injured if the airbag were to inflate.
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:
Ð 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.
Ð A child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the rearwards facing posi-
tion both in the front and in the rear. PEUGEOT recommends that chil-dren should travel in the "rearwards facing" position up to the age of two.
Ð Statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for the transportation of chil-dren are the rear seats. PEUGEOT recommends that children travel in the rear even when a "rearwards facing" child seat is used.
Ð 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 belt mustbe positioned on the child's shoulder without touching the neck. PEUGEOTrecommends that you use a booster seat with a back, fitted with a seat belt guide.
Ð 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.

SEAT BELTS
To adjust the height of the front seat belts 
To lower the attachment point, press the upper control and slide itdownwards.
 To raise the attachment point,slide the control upwards.
To lock the seat belts  Pull the strap, then insert the buckle 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 asclose 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.

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 the
seat belts. The electronic detectorsregister and analyse any abruptdeceleration of the vehicle: if the trig-gering threshold is reached, the airbags inflate instantly and protect theoccupants of the 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 not seri-
ous, for which the seat belt is suffi-cient to ensure maximum protection.The seriousness of a collisiondepends on the nature of the obsta-cle 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,

Ð Remove the ignition key, insert it
into the passenger air bag switch 1located between the two front
seats and turn it to the "OFF"
position.
