43SEATS-
ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS 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 in-
stalled on the front seat. Otherwise,
the child would risk being seriously
injured or killed if the airbag were to
infl ate. 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, fi t-
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level. To prevent accidental open-
ing of the doors, use the
"Child lock". 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 keep-
ing 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. Take care not to open the rear win-
dows by more than one third.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, fi t side blinds on the
rear windows.

SEAT BELTS


Locking the seat belts
Pull the strap, then insert the end into
the buckle.
Check that the seat belt is fastened
correctly by pulling the strap.

Unfastening the seat belts
Press the button on the buckle.

Front seat belts with pre-
tensioner
Safety in the event of frontal impacts
has been improved by the introduc-
tion of pre-tensioning seat belts for
the front seats.
Depending on the seriousness of the
impact, the pre-tensioning system
instantly tightens the seat belts and
pulls them against the bodies of the
occupants.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are
armed when the ignition is on.
Seat belt height adjustment
To lower or raise: slide the control
downwards or upwards.
Rear seat belts (4 seat
version)
The rear seats are fi tted with two three-
point inertia reel seat belts.

Rear seat belts (5 seat
version)
The rear seats are fi tted with three
three-point inertia reel seat belts
(two-part rear seat, 1/3 - 2/3).

45SEATS-





The driver must ensure that
the passengers use the seat
belts correctly and that they
are all properly restrained
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as
they will not fulfi l their role fully.
If the seats have armrests * , the lap
part of the seat belt must always
pass under the armrest.
The seat belts are fi tted with an in-
ertia reel permitting automatic adjust-
ment of the length of the strap to your
size. The seat belt is stored automa-
tically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the
seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
positioned as low as possible on the
pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in
the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fi tted with an auto-
matic locking device which comes into
operation in the event of a collision,
on emergency braking or if the vehicle
rolls over. You can release the device
by pulling rapidly on the strap and re-
leasing it.
In order to be effective, a seat belt:


- must be tightened as close to the
body as possible,

- must restrain one adult only,

- must not bear any trace of cuts or
fraying,

- must be pulled in front of you with
a smooth movement, checking
that it does not twist,

- must not be transformed or modifi ed
to avoid altering its performance.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, all repairs and checks
must be carried out by a CITROËN
dealer who guarantees that the work
is carried out correctly.
Have your seat belts checked regularly
by a CITROËN dealer and particularly
if the straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by CITROËN dealers.

According to model.
Recommendations for children:


- use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
shorter than one metre fi fty,

- do not use the strap-guide * when
a child seat is installed.

- never use the same seat belt to
secure more than one person,

- never allow a child to travel on
your lap.

Depending on the nature and serious-
ness of the impacts
, the pre-tensioning
device may be triggered before and in-
dependently of the airbags. Triggering of
the pre-tensioners is accompanied by a
slight emission of harmless smoke and
a noise, due to the activation of the py-
rotechnic cartridge incorporated in the
system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a CITROËN dealer.

After folding or moving a
seat or rear bench seat,
ensure that the seat belt is
positioned and rolled up correctly.

47ACCESS and STARTING
-
ELECTRONIC ENGINE
IMMOBILISER
This locks the engine control sys-
tem as soon as the ignition has been
switched off and therefore prevents
starting of the vehicle by anyone who
does not have the key.
The ignition key has an electronic
chip which has a special code. When
the ignition is switched on, the code
must be recognised for the vehicle to
start.

If the system does not function
correctly,
the central locking button
indicator light, situated in the centre
of the fascia, fl ashes rapidly when the
ignition is switched on (2nd notch),
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the display.
In this case your vehicle will not start.
Contact a CITROËN dealer as soon
as possible.






Key in ignition

A buzzer sounds on opening the driv-
er's door, if the key has been left in
the ignition. Make a careful note of the
number of each key. This
number is coded on the label
attached to the key.
The high frequency remote control is
a sensitive system; do not operate it
while it is in your pocket as there is a
possibility that it may unlock the vehi-
cle, without you being aware of it.
The remote control does not operate
when the key is in the ignition, even
when the ignition is switched off,
except for reprogramming.
Do not operate the deadlocking function
if there is anyone inside the vehicle.
Driving with the doors locked may
make access to the passenger com-
partment by the emergency services
more diffi cult in an emergency.
As a safety precaution (with children
on board), remove the key from the
ignition when you leave the vehicle,
even for a short time.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons
of your remote control out of range of
your vehicle.
You run the risk of stopping it from
working and the remote control would
have to be reprogrammed.
When purchasing a second-hand ve-
hicle, have the key codes memorised
by a CITROËN dealer, to ensure that
the keys in your possession are the
only ones which can start the vehicle.
Do not make any modifi cations to the
electronic engine immobiliser system.
If the keys are lost
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the vehi-
cle's V5 registration certifi cate and your
personal identifi cation documents.
The CITROËN network will be able to
retrieve the key code and the trans-
ponder code to order a replacement
key.


A heavy object (key fob...), attached
to the key and weighing down on
its shaft in the ignition switch, could
cause a malfunction.
