SAFETY -> Child safety for Your Peugeot Boxer Van 2003-2013

Child safety  
GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO  
CHILD SEATS  
Although one of PEUGEOT's main criteria  
when designing your vehicle, the safety of  
your children also depends on you.  
For maximum safety, please follow these  
precautions:  
-
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 carrying children are the rear  
seats,  
"Forwards-facing"  
"Rearwards-facing"  
Recommended on the rear seats  
over the age of 2.  
Recommended on the rear seats  
up to the age of 2.  
a child weighing less than 9 kg must  
travel in the "rearwards-facing" position  
both in the front and in the rear,  
When a "forwards-facing" child  
seat is installed on the front passenger seat,  
leave the passenger airbag activated.  
When a "rearwards-facing" child  
seat is installed on the front passenger seat,  
it is essential that the passenger airbag is  
deactivated. Otherwise, the child would risk  
being seriously injured or killed if the airbag  
were to inflate.  
the passenger must not travel with a  
child on their lap.  
Child safety  
The child seats function and the  
passenger airbag deactivation function  
are common to the entire PEUGEOT range.  
If the passenger airbag is not deactivated,  
the installation of a "rearwards-facing" child  
seat in the front is strictly prohibited.  
Refer to chapter 5, "Airbags" section.  
If your vehicle is fitted with this function, the  
passenger airbag must be deactivated using  
the trip computer MODE button.  
The rules for carrying children are  
specific to each country. Consult the  
current legislation in your country.  
Please consult the list of seats approved  
in your country. The Isofix mountings, the  
rear seats, the passenger airbag and the  
deactivation of this airbag depend on the  
version sold.

Child safety  
The mountings comprise three rings for each  
seat:  
-
two front rings, located between the  
vehicle seat back and cushion, indicated  
by a label,  
-
a rear ring, for securing the upper  
strap referred to as the TOP TETHER,  
indicated by another label.  
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.  
"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS  
Some also have an upper strap which is  
attached to the rear ring.  
Your vehicle has been approved  
in accordance with the new  
ISOFIX regulation.  
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.  
If fitted on your vehicle, the regulation  
ISOFIX mountings are located by labels.  
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a  
vehicle compromises the child's protection in  
the event of an accident.  
For information regarding the ISOFIX child  
seats which can be installed in your vehicle,  
consult the summary table for the location of  
the ISOFIX child seats.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS  
Installing a booster seat  
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a  
vehicle compromises the child's protection in  
the event of an accident.  
The chest part of the seat belt must be  
positioned on the child's shoulder without  
touching the neck.  
Otherwise, the child would risk being  
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were  
to inflate.  
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.  
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,  
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.  
-
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.  
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.  
Crew cab  
Do not install child seats, booster cushions  
or carrycots on the rear seats of the cab.  
To prevent accidental opening of the doors,  
use the "Child Lock".  
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.  
Take care not to open the rear windows by  
more than one third.  
To protect young children from the rays of  
the sun, fit side blinds to the rear windows.
