The descriptions of the models given in this manual are based on the technical specifications at the time of writing. This manual
covers all items of equipment (both standard and optional) available for these models, but whether or not these are fitted
to the vehicle depends on the version, options selected and the country where the vehicle is sold.
This manual may also contain information about items of equipment to be introduced later in the model year.

Never leave your vehicle
with the keys inside
when leaving a child (or
animal) in the car, even for a
short period. The reason for this
is that the child may endanger
himself or others by starting the
engine, activating equipment
such as the window winders for
example, or locking the doors.
The key must not be used for any
function other than those described
in the handbook (removing the cap

child safety: general information (1/2)
Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly
seated and strapped in for all journeys.
The children being carried in your vehi-
cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children
are at risk of specific injuries as their
muscles and bones have not yet fin-
ished growing. The seat belt alone
would not provide suitable protection.
Use an approved child seat and ensure
you use it correctly.
CHILD RESTRAINT SEAT provision is
given in Rear Left seat belt.
A collision at 50 km/h is the
same as falling a distance
of 10 metres. Transporting
a child without a restraint is
the equivalent of allowing him or her
to play on a fourthfloor balcony with-
out railings.
Never travel with a child held in your
arms. In the event of an accident,
you will not be able to keep hold of It is recommended that children and
the child, even if you yourself are infants are seated in child restraint.

A carrycot can be installed across the
vehicle and will take up at least two
seats. Position the child with his or her
feet nearest the door.
Before fitting a child seat to the ISOFIX
anchorages on the rear side seat,
ensure that the seat belt buckles are
not positioned between the two ISOFIX
anchorages on this seat. If necessary,
move the buckle from the seat in ques-
