a
substantial knock when changing from P

advice on child seats
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection
i
n the 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 harness keeping the slack in
relation to the child's body to a minimum ,
even
for short journeys.
To
install a child seat using the vehicle's
s
eat belt, ensure that the belt is well
tightened
on the child seat and that it holds
t
he child seat firmly against the vehicle's
s
eat. If your passenger seat is adjustable,
m
ove it for ward if necessary.
On
the rear seats, always leave enough
s
pace between the front seat and:
-
a
rear ward facing child seat,
-
t
he child's feet when in a for ward facing
c
hild seat.
To
do this, move the front seat for ward and,
i
f necessary, also straighten its backrest.
children at the front
The legislation on carrying a child on the front passenger seat is specific to each
c
o unt r y.
Refer
to the current legislation in your
c
o unt r y.
Deactivate
the passenger airbag when a
"
rear ward facing" child seat is installed on
t
he front seat. Other wise the child risks
b
eing seriously injured or killed if the airbag
i
s deployed.
Installation of a booster cushion
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
b
ooster seat which has a back, fitted with a
s
eat belt guide at shoulder level.
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,
-
k
eys within the reach of children inside
t
he vehicle.
Use
the "child lock" to prevent any
a
ccidental opening of the rear doors or
w
indows.
Avoid
opening the rear windows by more
t
han a third.
To
protect young children from the rays of
t
he sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.
For
optimum
installation
of
the
"for ward
f
acing"
child
seat,
ensure
that
the
back
of
t
he child seat is as close as possible to
the
back
of
the
vehicle's
seat,
in
contact
if
p
ossible.
You
must
remove
the
head
restraint
before
f
itting
a
child
seat
on
a
passenger
seat.
E
nsure that the head restraint is stowed or
attached
securely
to
prevent
it
from
being
t
hrown around the vehicle in the event of
sharp
braking.
Refit
the
head
restraint
once
t
he
child
seat
has
been
removed
