Never leave a child in a
vehicle which is exposed
to the sun and has the
windows closed.
To protect young children
from the sun, fit sunblinds to the
rear windows.
Never leave the keys in the reach
of children inside the car.
Strap children into their child seats
even on short journeys.
CHILD SEATS
This was one of PEUGEOT’s main criteria when designing your vehicle, however
the safety of your children also depends on you. For maximum peace of mind,
please follow these simple precautions:
All children under the age of 10 are required to travel in approved child safety seats*,
fitted with seat belts.
After carrying out numerous tests, PEUGEOT recommend the following systems :
Up to 9 months (up to 22 lbs. or 10 kg)
«Baby Safe», a seat secured with its back to the engine and secured with a
1
three-point seat belt, on either the front or rear seat.
From 9 months to 3 or 4 years (20 to 40 lbs. or 9 to 18 kg)
2
«Römer Peggy» is fitted to the rear seat with a two-point (lap-belt) or three-point
belt.
From 3 to10 years of age (33 to 80 lbs or 15 to 36 kg)
“Klippan Optima” : is fitted in the rear with a three point belt (removable seatback).

from 33 to 55 lbs. [15 to 25 kg] : booster + seatback.
from 55 to 80 lbs. [25 to 36 kg] : use the booster on its own.
Observe the precautions concern-
