Rules for transporting children
on the front passenger seat**
GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS
Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safe-
ty of your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow these precautions:
Children under the age of 10 must
not travel in the forwards facing
position, unless the rear seats are
already occupied by other children
or the rear seats cannot be used
(absent or folded). In this case,
adjust the front passenger seat to
the most rearward position and arm
the passenger air bag.
– Since 1992, all children under the age of 10 must travel in approved child
seats* suited to their weight, on seats fitted with a seat belt.
In order to recognise a child seat which conforms to current legislation, check
that it bears an orange label indicating the weight range for its use and
its approval number.
– 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
children should travel in the "rearwards facing" position up to the age of
two.
The rearwards facing position is per-
mitted from birth to 13 kg or 18 kg. In
this position, it is essential to disarm
the passenger air bag.
– Statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for the transportation of
children are the rear seats.
– If a child is travelling on a booster seat, check that the lap section of the seat
belt passes over the child's thighs correctly. The chest section of the seat belt
must be positioned on the child's shoulder without touching the neck.
PEUGEOT recommends that you use a booster seat with a back, fitted with a
seat belt guide.
– Remember to fasten the seat belt or the child seat harness keeping the slack
in relation to the child's body to a minimum, even for short journeys.
* According to current legislation in the country.
**Consult the relevant administration in your country for information regarding
the rules for transporting children on the front passenger seat.
