Child safety
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's protection inthe event of an accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the child seat harnesses keeping the slackrelative to the child's body to a minimum,even for shor t journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightenedcorrectly on the child seat and that it securesthe child seat firmly on the seat of your vehicle. If your passenger seat is adjustable,move it for wards if necessary.
For optimum installation of the "forwards-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 discomfor t.
If the head restraint has to be removed,ensure that it is stored or attached securelyto prevent it from being thrown around the vehicle in the event of sharp braking.






Advice on child seats

As a safety precaution, do not leave: - a child or children alone andunsupervised in a vehicle, - a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with the windowsclosed, - the keys within reach of children insidethe vehicle.To prevent accidental opening of the doors and rear windows, use the "Child lock". Take care not to open the rear windows bymore than one third.To protect young children from the rays of the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.
Children under the age of 10 must not travel in the "forwards-facing" position on the frontpassenger seat, unless the rear seats are already occupied by other children, cannot be used or are absent.
Deactivate the passenger airbag when a "rearwards-facing" child seat is installed on the front seat.
Other wise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if the airbag were to inflate.

Installing a booster seat

The chest par t of the seat belt must be positioned on the child's shoulder withouttouching 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, fitted with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.
