Your vehicle has been approved in accordance
with the new
ISOFIX regulation
.
The seats, represented below, are fitted with
regulation ISOFIX mountings:


















"ISOFIX" mountings

There are three rings for each seat:


- two rings A
located in the angle between
the vehicle seat's cushion and backrest,
indicated by a label. This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in your
vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats
are fitted with two
latches which are secured on the two rings A
.
Some seats also have an upper strap
which is
secured to the ring B
.
To attach this strap, remove the head restraint
from the vehicle's seat. Attach the hook to
the ring B
, then tighten the upper strap.
The incorrect installation of a child seat
in a vehicle compromises the child's
protection in the event of an accident.
For information regarding the ISOFIX child
seats which can be installed in your vehicle,
refer to the table showing the locations for
installing ISOFIX child seats.
- a ring B
for securing the upper strap called
the TOP TETHER
, located in the boot.

Child safety

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection
in the event of an accident.
When installing a child seat using the seat
belt, check that the seat belt is tightened
correctly on the child seat and that it
secures the child seat firmly on the seat of
your vehicle.
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 shor t journeys.
For optimum installation of the "for wards-
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 discomfor t.
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 "for wards-facing" position on the front
passenger seat, unless the rear seats are
already occupied by other children, cannot
be used or are absent.
Deactivate the passenger airbag * when a
"rear wards-facing" child seat is installed on
the front seat. Other wise, the child would
risk being seriously injured or killed if the
airbag were to inflate.

Advice on child seats


Installing a booster seat

The chest par t 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
unsuper vised 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 on the rear windows.

According to country and current local
legislation.

Safety

Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the
occupants and the airbags (a child, pet,
object...). This could hamper the operation of
the airbags or injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been
stolen or broken into, have the airbag
systems checked.
All work on the airbag system must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are
obser ved, a risk of injury or of minor burns
to the head, chest or arms when an airbag is
deployed cannot be ruled out.
The bag inflates almost instantly (within
a few milliseconds) then deflates within
the same time discharging the hot gas via
openings provided for this purpose.


Lateral airbags

Use only approved covers on the seats,
compatible with the deployment the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat
covers suitable for your vehicle, you can
contact a CITROËN dealer (see "Practical
information - § Accessories").
Do not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs (clothing...). This could cause injury
to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is
deployed.
Do not sit with the upper par t of the body any
nearer to the door than necessary.


Front airbags

Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its
spokes or resting your hands on the centre
part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the
dashboard.
If possible, do not smoke as deployment of
the airbags can cause burns or the risk of
injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or
hit it violently.



Curtain airbags

Do not fix or attach anything to the roof. This
could cause injury to the head if the cur tain
airbag is deployed.
If fitted on your vehicle, do not remove the
grab handles installed on the roof, they play
a par t in securing the cur tain airbags.















For the airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:
