tion both in the front and in the rear

position, it is essential to disarm the

passenger air bag.

– 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 recom-

mends 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.

YOUR 406 IN DETAIL

Make a careful note of the number on each key. The key number is coded on the label attached to the key.

If the key is lost, your PEUGEOT dealer can rapidly supply you with new keys.

The high-frequency remote control is a high-performance system.

Do not operate it while it is in your pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock your vehicle without your knowledge.

The remote control cannot operate if the key is in the ignition, even if the ignition is switched off, except for reprogramming.

Do not operate the deadlock if there is someone inside the vehicle.

As a safety measure (when there are children on board), remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle, even for a

short time.

Do not handle the buttons of your remote control when out of range of your vehicle as you run the risk of stopping it from

working.

It would then be necessary to reprogramme the remote control.

When buying a second-hand car:

- ensure that you are in possession of the confidential card;

- have the key codes memorised by a PEUGEOT dealer, to ensure that the keys in your possession are the only ones

that can start your vehicle.

Do not make any modifications to the electronic engine immobiliser system.
