General points relating to child seats
* The regulations on carrying children are specific to each country. Refer to the
legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please observe the
following recommendations:
-
i
n accordance with European regulations,
all children under the age of 12 or less
than one and a half metres tall must
travel in approved child seats suited to
their weight , on seats fitted with a seat
belt or IS
oF
IX mountings*,
-
s
tatistically, the safest seats in your
vehicle for carr ying children are the
rear seats,
-
a c
hild weighing less than 9 kg must
travel in the "rear ward facing" position
both in the front and in the rear. 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.
