Advice
Installing a booster seat
Children at the frontThe incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle   compromises   the   child's   protection   in  
t

he   event   of   an   accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle
  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  
r

elative   to   the   child's   body   to   a   minimum,  
e

ven   for   short   journeys.
When
  installing   a   child   seat   using   the   seat  
b

elt,   ensure   that   the   seat   belt   is   tightened  
c

orrectly on the child seat and that it secures
the
  child   seat   firmly   on   the   seat   of   your  
v

ehicle.   If   your   passenger   seat   is   adjustable,  
m

ove   it   for wards   if   necessary. The
  legislation   on   carrying   children   on   the  
f

ront   passenger   seat   is   specific   to   each  
c

ountry.   Refer   to   the   legislation   in   force   in  
y

our   country.

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.
At
  rear   seating   positions,   always   leave  
s

ufficient   space   between   the   front   seat   and:
-
 
a
  rear ward   facing   child   seat,
-
 
t

fo

 f
acing.
To
  do   this,   move   the   front   seat   for wards  
a

nd,   if   necessary,   move   its   backrest   into   the  
u

pright
 p
osition. As
  a   safety   precaution,   do   not   leave:
-

a c

unsupervised in a vehicle,
-
 
a
  child   or   an   animal   in   a   vehicle   which

-

t

To
  prevent   accidental   opening   of   the   doors  
a

nd   rear   windows,   use   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.
