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 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.
Advice on child seats
Installing a booster cushion
the chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
en

sure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
P
e

uge

Children at the front
the legislation on carrying a child on the
front passenger seat is specific to each
country. Refer to the legislation in force in
your country.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag when a
rear ward facing child seat is installed on the
front seat. Otherwise, the child would risk
being seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were to inflate.

th

e vehicle's electric system allows the
connection of a compressor for long
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture
repair or for inflating a small inflatable
accessory.
Composition of the kit
1. 12 V compressor with integral pressure gauge, to measure and adjust the tyre
pressure.
As the compressor is not sealed, keep it
away from sand, dust and water.
th

e puncture repair kit cannot be used
in the following circumstances:
-

t

he use-by date for the sealant
cartridge has been exceeded (see
the label on the cartridge),
