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 or
less than one metre fi fty tall must
travel in approved child seats suited
to their weight, on seats fi tted with
a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings,
- statistically, the safest seats in your
vehicle for the transportation of
children are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg
must travel in the "rearwards-
facing" position both in the front
and in the rear,
- the passenger must not travel with
a child on his lap.
CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT
"Rearwards-facing"
Recommended on the rear seats up to
the age of 2.
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, it
is essential that the passenger airbag
is deactivated. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the airbag were to infl ate.
"Forwards-facing"
Recommended on the rear seats over
the age of 2.
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat,
leave the passenger airbag activated.
The rules for carrying children are
specifi c to each country. Consult
the current legislation in your
country.
Please consult the list of seats
approved in your country. The Isofi x
mountings, the rear seats, the
passenger airbag and the deactivation
of this airbag depend on the version
sold.
