Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2

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
