general points relating to child seats

For maximum safety, please observe the 
following recommendations:
- 

in accordance with european regulations, 
all children under the age of 12 or less 
than one and a half metres 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,

- 

a child weighing less than 9 kg must 
travel in the rearward facing position 
both in the front and in the rear.

PEUGEOT recommends that children 
should travel in the outer rear seats of 
your vehicle:
- 

rearward facing up to the age of 3,

- 

forward facing over the age of 3.

Although one of PeugeOt main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safety of your children 
also depends on you.

*  the regulations on carrying children are 

specific to each country. Refer to the 
legislation in force in your country.

Safety

Child seats

the incorrect installation of a child seat in a 
vehicle compromises the child's protection in 
the event of an accident.
Check that there is no seat belt or seat belt 
buckle under the child seat as this could 
destabilise it.
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.
For the installation of a child seat using a 
seat belt, ensure that this is well tensioned 
on the child seat and that it is holding the 
child seat firmly against the seat of your 
vehicle. If your front passenger seat is 
adjustable, move it forward if necessary.
At the rear seats, always leave sufficient 
space between the front seat and:
- 

a rearward facing child seat,

- 

the feet of a child seated in a forward 
facing child seat.

For this, move the front seat forward and if 
necessary straighten its backrest.

Recommendations

Installing a booster 
cushion

As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- 

one or more children alone and 
unsupervised in a vehicle,

- 

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.

to prevent accidental opening of the doors, 
use the child lock.
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 on the rear windows.

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, fitted with a seat belt 
guide at shoulder level.

For optimum installation of the forward facing 
child seat, ensure that the back of the child 
seat is as close as possible to the backrest 
of the vehicle's seat, or in contact if possible.
the head restraint must be removed before 
installing a child seat with a backrest on the 
passenger seat.
ensure that the head restraint is stowed or 
attached securely so that it is not thrown 
around the vehicle in the event of sharp 
braking.
Refit the head restraint as soon as the child 
seat is removed.

Children at the front

the legislation on carrying a child on the 
front passenger seat is specific to each 
country. Refer to the legislation in force in 
the country in which you are driving.
Deactivate the passenger's front airbag 
when a rearward facing child seat is installed 
on the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the 
child would risk being seriously injured or 
killed if the airbag were deployed.
