GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS
CITROËN recommends
that
children should travel on the
rear seats
of your vehicle:
- "rearward-facing"
up to the
age of 3,
- "forward-facing"
over the
age of 3.
Although one of CITROËN main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safety of
your children also depends on you.
*
The rules for carrying children are
specifi c to each country. Refer to the
legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please observe
the following recommendations:
- in accordance with European regu-
lations, all children under the age
of 12 or less than one and a half
metres tall must travel in ap-
proved 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 carrying 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.

installed on the front passenger seat
,
adjust the seat to the intermediate lon-
gitudinal and highest position, with the
backrest straightened.
The passenger airbag must be deacti-
vated. Otherwise, the child would risk
being seriously injured or killed if
the airbag were to infl ate
.
When a "forward-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat
,
adjust the vehicle's seat to the interme-
diate longitudinal and highest position
with seat backrest straightened and
leave the passenger's airbag activated.
*
Refer to the current legislation in your
country before installing a child seat
on this seat.
Ensure that the seat belt is cor-
rectly tensioned.
For child seats with a support
leg, ensure that the support leg

CHILD SEAT AT THE REAR
"Rearward facing"
When a "rearward facing" child seat is
installed on a rear passenger seat
,
move the vehicle's front seat forwards
and straighten the backrest so that the
"rearward facing" child seat does not
touch the vehicle's front seat.
"Forward facing"
When a "forward facing" child seat is
installed on a rear passenger seat
,
move the vehicle's front seat forwards
and straighten the backrest so that the
legs of the child in the "forward facing"
child seat do not touch the vehicle's
front seat.
Centre rear seat
A child seat with a support leg must
never be installed on the centre rear
passenger seat
.
Ensure that the seat belt is cor-
rectly tightened. For child seats
