GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS
INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT
USING A THREE POINT SEAT
BELT
Although one of PEUGEOT’s main
criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also de-
pends on you.
"Rearwards-facing"
"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**.
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
to inflate.
For maximum safety, please
follow these precautions:
- in accordance with Directive 2003/20,
all children under the age of 12
or less than one metre fifty tall
must travel in approved child
seats suited to their weight,
on seats fitted with a seat belt or
ISOFIX mountings*.
- statistically, the safest seats in
your vehicle for the transpor-
tation 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.
* The rules for transporting children
are specific to each country. Con-
sult the current legislation in your
country.
