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.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag when a
"rear facing" child seat is installed on the
front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag 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.

"ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS

Some also have an upper strap which is
attached to the rear ring.
To attach this strap, raise the vehicle seat's
head restraint then pass the hook between
its rods. Then fix the hook on the rear ring
and tighten the upper strap.

ISOFIX
RÖMER Duo Plus

)

on the ISOFIX upper ring, referred to as
the TOP TETHER.
Three seat body angles: sitting, reclining,
lying.
This child seat can also be used on
seats which are not fitted with ISOFIX
mountings.
In this case, it must be attached to the
vehicle seat using the three point seat belt.

Follow the instructions for fitting
the child seat given in the seat
manufacturer's installation guide.

The incorrect installation of a child seat
in a vehicle compromises the child's
protection in the event of an accident.

















ISOFIX CHILD SEAT RECOMMENDED
BY CITROËN AND APPROVED FOR
YOUR VEHICLE


Your vehicle has been approved in
accordance with the new ISOFIX regulation.
The mountings comprise three rings for each
rear bench side seat:


- two front rings, located between the
vehicle seat back and cushion,

- a rear ring, for securing the upper strap
referred to as the TOP TETHER.
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 easily on the
two front rings.
