4 - Access to the rear seats
If necessary, detach the seat belt
from the handle and position it along
the door pillar.
Lift the control A with one hand
and guide the movement of the
seat forwards with your other
hand (keeping the control in the
raised position).
The driver has a courtesy handle
B , located on the inner side of the
passenger seat, to enable him to tilt
the seat to allow a child into the rear,
for example.
When it is put back in place, the seat
returns to its initial position. 5 - Head restraint height and

Although one of PEUGEOT’s main
criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also
depends on you. INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT
USING A THREE POINT SEAT
BELT
Intermediate longitudinal position
* The rules for transporting chil-
d r e n a r e s p e c i fi c t o e a c h c o u n t r y .
Consult the current legislation in
your country.
GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat
is installed on the front passenger
seat , adjust the vehicle’s seat to the
intermediate longitudinal position
with the seat back upright and leave
the passenger air bag armed.
"Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing"
child seat is installed on the
front passenger seat , it is
essential that the passenger
air bag is disarmed. Otherwise, the
child would risk being seriously
injured or killed if the air bag were
t o i n fl a t e .
For maximum safety, please
follow these precautions:
- in accordance with Directive 2003/20, all children under
the age of 12 or less than one
m e t r e fi f t y t a l l m u s t t r a v e l i n
approved child seats suited
to their weight , o n s e a t s fi t t e d
with a seat belt or ISOFIX
mountings * ,
- statistically, the safest seats
in your vehicle for the trans-
portation of 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 chil-
dren should travel in the rear seats
of your vehicle:
- "rearwards-facing" up to the
age of 2,
- "forwards-facing" over the age
of 2.

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,
fi t t e d w i t h a s e a t b e l t g u i d e a t
shoulder level. As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and
unsupervised 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 protect young children from the
r a y s o f t h e s u n , fi t s i d e b l i n d s o n t h e
rear windows.
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
b a g w e r e t o i n fl a t e .
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 harness
keeping the
slack in relation to the child’s body to
a minimum , even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the
"forward 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.
