SAFETY
   Seat belts   
  Good practice 
 Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,  
always fasten your seat belt, even for short 
journeys. 
 The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel 
which automatically adjusts the length of the 
strap to your size. The seat belt is rolled up 
automatically when not in use. 
 Ensure that the seat belt is rolled up 
correctly after use. 
 After folding or moving a seat, ensure that 
the seat belt is rolled up correctly in its 
compartment and that the buckle is ready to 
accommodate the tongue.  The inertia reels are fitted with a device 
which automatically locks the strap in the 
event of a collision or emergency braking or 
if the vehicle rolls over. 
   The air bag warning light comes 
on if the pretensioners are 
triggered.  Consult a PEUGEOT 
dealer . 
 Depending on the nature and seriousness 
of any impact, the pretensioning device may 
be triggered before and independently of 
inflation of the air bags. It instantly tightens 
the seat belts against the body of the 
occupants. 
 The triggering of the pretensioners is 
accompanied by a slight discharge of 
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the 
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge 
incorporated in the system. 
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the 
seat belt against the body of the occupants. 
The equipment fitted to these seat belts is 
operational when the ignition is switched on.   In order to be effective, a seat belt must: 
   -   restrain one person only,  
  -   must not be twisted, check by pulling in 
front of you with an even movement, 
  -   be tightened as close to the body as  possible.  
 The upper part of the seat belt should be  
positioned in the hollow of the shoulder. 
 The lap part should be placed as low as 
possible on the pelvis. 
 Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they 
will not fulfil their role completely. If the 
seats are fitted with armrests, the lap part of 
the seat belt should always pass under the 
armrest. 
 Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly 
by pulling the strap firmly. 
  Recommendations for children: 
   -   use a suitable child seat if the passenger  is less than 12 years old or shorter than  
one metre fifty, 
  -   never allow a child to travel on your lap,  even with the seat belt fastened.  
   For further information regarding child  
seats, refer to the "Children on board" 
section of chapter 5. 
 In accordance with current safety  
regulations, your  PEUGEOT dealer  
guarantees all work or any checks, from 
testing to maintenance, on your seat belt 
equipment. 
 Have the seat belts checked regularly 
(even after a minor impact) by a  PEUGEOT 
dealer : they must not show any signs of 
wear, cutting or fraying and they must not be 
transformed or modified. 
  Clean the seat belt straps with soapy  
water or a textile cleaning product, sold 
by a  PEUGEOT dealer .

   Child safety   
 ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS 
 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.   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, fitted with a 
seat belt guide at 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 prevent accidental opening of the doors, 
use the "Child lock". 
 To protect young children from the sun, fit 
side blinds on the rear windows.  
 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. 
 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 bag were 
to inflate.

 "ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS 
 Your vehicle has been approved in  
accordance with the new ISOFIX regulation. 
 The mountings comprise three rings for each 
rear bench side seat: 
   -   two front rings, located between the vehicle seat back and cushion, 
  -   a rear ring, for securing the upper strap  referred to as the TOP TETHER.  
 This ISOFIX mounting system guarantees 
you fast, reliable and safe fitting of the child 
seat in your vehicle. 
 The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two 
locks which are secured easily on the two 
front rings.   Some also have an upper strap which is 
attached to the rear ring. 
 To attach this strap, raise the vehicle seat’s 
head restraint then pass the hook between 
its rods. Then fix the hook on the rear ring 
and tighten the upper strap. 
  The incorrect installation of a child seat 
in a vehicle compromises the child’s 
protection in the event of an accident.
