Child safety
ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
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.
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".
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.
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.
To protect young children from the sun, fit
side blinds on the rear windows.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Fuel
FILLING WITH FUEL
Low fuel level
When the minimum fuel tank
level is reached, this warning
light comes on. At this moment,
you have approximately 6 litres
remaining. Fill up without delay to avoid
running out of fuel.
The fuel tank must be filled with the engine
off.
- Open the fuel filler flap.
- Support the cap with one hand.
- With the other hand, insert the key, then turn it a third of a turn.
- Remove the cap. When the fuel filler flap is open, a
safety system prevents sliding of the
side door.
A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle. This could
cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 45 litres.
After filling the fuel tank, lock the cap and
close the flap.
FUEL CIRCUIT DEACTIVATED
In the event of a serious collision, a device
automatically cuts off the fuel supply to the
engine and the vehicle’s electrical supply.
It also triggers the automatic unlocking of
the doors and switching on of the courtesy
lights. A message appears on the instrument
panel display according to version.
Turn the key to the STOP position to prevent
discharging of the battery.
Check that there is no smell or leak of fuel
outside the vehicle.
Re-activation
To set off again, restore the fuel supply and
the electrical supply manually:
- with the key in the STOP position, turn
the key to the RUNNING position,
- push the direction indicators control up fully,
- place it in the "Off" position,
- press the direction indicators control down fully,
- return it to the "Off" position,
- push it up fully again,
- return it to the "Off" position,
- press it down fully again,
- return it to the "Off" position,
- turn the key to the STOP position.
