In order to ensure optimum vis-

ibility during your manoeuvres,

the mirror lightens automati-

cally when reverse gear is en-

gaged.

By means of a sensor, which mea-

sures the light from the rear of the ve-

hicle, this system automatically and

progressively changes between the

day and night uses.

It has an anti-dazzle system which

darkens the mirror glass: this reduces

any driver discomfort caused by the

light beams of following vehicles, the

sun...

Automatic day/night model

Rear view mirror

Adjustable mirror providing a central

rearward view.

Equipped with an anti-dazzle system,

useful in poor light.

REAR SEATS

To fold down the rear left seat or the

rear right seat, always start with the

seat cushion, never with the seat back

(risk of damage):


move the front seat(s) forward if

necessary,



place the head restraints in the low

position or remove them if necessary.

Check that the seat belt strap is

positioned correctly at the side of

the seat back,



release the front of the seat cushion 1

by passing your hands underneath and

lifting at each end A ,



lift the front of the seat cushion 1 ,



tilt the seat cushion 1 against the

front seat(s),

 pull control 3

forwards to release

the seat back 2 ,



fold down the seat back 2 (left 1/3

or right 2/3).

Note:

the one-piece seat cushion 1

can be removed, with care, to increase

the volume of the load space.

Squeeze the seat cushion fi xings to

detach them from their fastenings.

When repositioning:


fold up the seat back 2 and lock it

(the red marker of control 3 should

no longer be visible),



fold up the seat 1 ,



refi t the head restraints if they were

removed.

Your vehicle's boot can be isolated

from the passenger compartment.

The red indicator on the control 3

should no longer be visible. If it is,

push the seat fully.

Insert the ignition key in the lock 4 .

Transporting long objects

In exceptional circumstances

, a rear

seat back can be folded without folding

the seat cushion 1 in order to transport

long, light objects (risk of damage to

the seat cushion).

When putting the seat backs

and the seat cushion back in

place, ensure that they are

secured correctly to ensure

your safety and take care not to trap

the seat belts.

When transporting long ob-

jects, do not place a load

weighing more than 30 kg on

the rear of the seat back.

Do not place rough objects on the rear of

the seat back as this could damage it.

Although one of PEUGEOT's main cri-

teria when designing your vehicle, the

safety of your children also depends

on you.

"Forwards-facing"

* The rules for carrying children are

specifi c to each country. Refer to the

current legislation in your country.

GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS

"Rearwards-facing"

For maximum safety, please

observe the following recom-

mendations:

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 in-
jured or killed if the airbag were to

infl ate .

- in accordance with European reg-

ulations, 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 fi tted with a

seat belt or ISOFIX mountings * ,

- statistically, the safest seats in

your vehicle for carrying chil-
dren 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 chil-

dren should travel in the rear seats of

your vehicle:

- "rearwards-facing" up to the age of 2,

- "forwards-facing" over the age of 2.

When a "forwards-facing" child seat

is installed on the front passenger

seat

, adjust the vehicle's seat to the

intermediate longitudinal position with

the seat back upright and leave the

passenger airbag activated.

Intermediate

ADVICE ON CHILD
SEATS

If the head restraint has to be removed,

ensure that it is stored or attached se-

curely to prevent it from being thrown

around the vehicle in the event of

sharp braking.
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.

Deactivate the passenger airbag *

when a "rear facing" child seat is in-

stalled on the front seat.

Otherwise, the child would risk being

seriously injured or killed if the airbag

were to infl ate.

As a safety precaution, do not leave:

- one or more children alone and un-

supervised 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 protect young children from the

rays of the sun, fi t side blinds on the

rear windows.

* According to country.

The incorrect installation of a child seat

in a vehicle compromises the child's

protection in the event of an accident.

Remember to fasten the seat belts or

the child seat harness keeping the

slack

in relation to the child's body to

a minimum

, even for short journeys.

To install a child seat using the ve-

hicle's seat belt, ensure that the belt

is well tightened on the child seat

and that it holds the child seat fi rmly

against the vehicle's seat.

For optimum installation of the "for-

ward 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.

Installing a booster seat
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, fi t-

ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder

level.

"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS

Your vehicle has been approved in

accordance with the new ISOFIX reg-

ulation .
The seats * , represented below, are fi tted

with regulation ISOFIX mountings:

These are three rings for each seat:

This ISOFIX mounting system pro-

vides fast, reliable and safe fi tting of

the child seat in your vehicle.

The ISOFIX child seats are fi tted with

two latches which are secured easily

on these lower rings A .

Some also have an upper strap which

is attached to the upper ring B .

- two lower rings A , located between

the vehicle seat back and cushion,

indicated by a label,

* According to version.

- an upper ring B , referred to as the

TOP TETHER

, indicated by a label.

To attach this strap, raise the

vehicle seat's head restraint

then pass the hook between

its rods. Then fi x the hook on

the upper ring B and tighten the upper

strap.

The incorrect installation of a

child seat in a vehicle compro-

mises the child's protection in

the event of an accident.

For information on where ISOFIX child

seats can be installed in your vehicle,

refer to the table showing the locations

for ISOFIX child seats.
