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:
- all children under the age of 12
o r l e s s t h a n o n e m e t r e fi f t y t a l l
must travel in approved child
seats suited to their weight ,
o n s e a t s fi t t e d w i t h a s e a t b e l t o r
ISOFIX mountings * .
- a child weighing less than 9 kg
must travel in the "rearwards-
facing" position in the front.
"Forwards-facing"
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 air bag armed.
* The rules for transporting chil- d r e n a r e s p e c i fi c t o e a c h c o u n t r y .
Consult the current legislation in
your country. Intermediate longitudinal
position
"Rearwards-facing"
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
t o i n fl a t e .

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
The incorrect installation of a
child seat in a vehicle com-
promises 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 "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.
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.
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
k i l l e d i f t h e a i r b a g w e r e t o i n fl a t e .
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.
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, fit-
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level.
To prevent accidental opening
of the doors, use the "Child
lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows
by more than one third.
