CHILD SEATS
GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS
Although one of CITROËN's main criteria
when designing your vehicle, the safety of
your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow these
precautions:
- in accordance with European
regulations, all children under the age
of 12 or less than one metre fifty 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 the transportation of
children are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg must
travel in the "rearwards-facing"
position in the front.
CITROËN recommends that children should
travel in the rear seats of your vehicle:
- "rearwards-facing" up to the age of 2 ,
- "forwards-facing" from the age of 2.
Chapter 4, "MODE"
INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT USING A THREE POINT SEAT BELT
"Rearwards-facing"
Do not forget to disarm the air
bag before installing the child.
When a "rearwards-facing" child
seat is installed on the front passenger
seat , it is essential that the passenger
air bag is disarmed. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the air bag were to inflate .
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child
seat is installed on the front
passenger seat , leave the
passenger air bag armed.
The rules for transporting children are
specific to each country. Consult the current
legislation in your country.
Please consult the list of seats approved
in your country. The Isofix mountings, the
rear seats, the passenger air bag and the
disarming of this air bag depend on the
version sold.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
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 harnesses keeping the slack in
relation to the child's body to a minimum ,
even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the "forward
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.
If the head restraint has to be removed,
ensure that it is stored or attached securely
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.
Disarm the passenger air bag when a "rear
facing" child seat is installed on the front
seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the air bag were
to inflate.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and
unsupervised 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 prevent accidental opening of the doors,
use the "Child Lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of
the sun, fit side blinds to the rear windows.
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.
CITROËN recommends the use of a booster
seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt
guide at shoulder level.
Crew cab
Do not install child seats, booster cushions
or carrycots on the rear seats of the cab.
