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.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
ADVICE ON CHILD
SEATS
- 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.
The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child’s protection in the event of an
accident.
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.
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.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, fit side blinds on the
rear windows.
For optimum installation of the "for-
ward 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, fit-
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level.
If the head restraint has to be re-
moved, ensure that it is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from
being thrown around the vehicle in
the event of sharp braking.
