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 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 "rearwards-facing" position both in the front and in the rear.

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

- "rearwards-facing" up to the age of 2,
- "forwards-facing" over the age of 2.
