Child seats
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's protection in
t
he event of an accident.
Check
that there is no seat belt or seat belt
b
uckle under the child seat as this could
de
stabilise
i
t.
Remember
to fasten the seat belts or the
c
hild seat harnesses keeping the slack in
relation
to the child's body to a minimum,
even
for short journeys.
For
the installation of a child seat using a
s
eat belt, ensure that this is well tensioned
o
n the child seat and that it is holding the
c
hild seat firmly against the seat of your
v
ehicle. If your front passenger seat is
a
djustable, move it for ward if necessary.
at t
he rear seats, always leave sufficient
space
between the front seat and:
-
a
rear ward facing child seat,
-
t
he feet of a child seated in a for ward
f
acing child seat.
Recommendations
For this, move the front seat for ward and if necessary straighten its backrest.
For
o
ptimum
in
stallation
o
f
t
he
fo
rward
f
acing
c
hild seat, ensure that the back of the child
s
eat is as close as possible to the backrest
o
f the vehicle's seat, or in contact if possible.
The
head restraint must be removed before
i
nstalling a child seat with a backrest on the
p
assenger
sea
t.
Ensure
that the head restraint is stowed or
a
ttached securely so that it is not thrown
a
round the vehicle in the event of sharp
b
raking.
Refit
the head restraint as soon as the child
s
eat is removed.Installing a booster
cushion
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- o ne or more children alone and
u
nsupervised in a vehicle,
-
a
child or an animal in a vehicle which
i
s exposed to the sun, with the windows
c
losed,
-
t
he keys within reach of children inside
t
he vehicle.
To
prevent accidental opening of the doors,
u
se the child lock.
Take
care not to open the rear windows by
m
ore than one third.
To
protect young children from the rays of
t
he sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.
The
chest part of the seat belt must be
p
ositioned on the child's shoulder without
t
ouching 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
s
eat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt
g
uide at shoulder level.
