Although one of PEUGEOT's main cri-
teria when designing your vehicle, the
safety of your children also depends
on you.
"Forwards-facing"
"Rearwards-facing"
For maximum safety, please
follow these precautions:
- since 1992, and in accordance
with Directive 2000/3, all children
under the age of 12 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 transportation
of children are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg
must travel in the "rearwards-fac-
ing" position both in the front and
in the rear.
When
a
"rearwards-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**.
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.
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.
Intermediate longitudinal
position
