Advice
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat, as this could
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses keeping the slack
relative to the child's body to a minimum,
even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat
belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened
correctly on the child seat and that it secures
the child seat firmly on the seat of your
vehicle. If your passenger seat is adjustable,
move it for wards if necessary.
At rear seating positions, always leave
sufficient space between the front seat and:
-
a r
ear ward facing child seat,
-

t
he child's feet for a child seat fitted
forward facing.
To do this, move the front seat for wards
and, if necessary, move its backrest into the
upright position.
For optimal installation of the forward-facing
child seat, verify that its backrest is as close
as possible to the backrest of the vehicle seat, or if possible in contact with it.
The head restraint must be removed before
installing a child seat with a backrest on the
passenger seat.
Ensure that the headrest is stowed or
attached securely so that it is not thrown
around the vehicle in the event of sharp
braking. Refit the head restraint once the
child seat has been removed.
Children in front
The legislation on carrying children on the
front passenger seat is specific to each
country. Consult the legislation in force in
your country.
Deactivate the passenger's front airbag
when a rear ward facing child seat is installed
on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child risks being seriously
injured or killed if the airbag is deployed.
Installing a booster seat
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 We recommend using a booster
seat with a backrest equipped with a belt
guide at shoulder level. As a safety precaution, do not leave:
-

a c
hild or children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
-
a c
hild or an animal in a vehicle which
is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,
-
t
he keys within reach of children inside
the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the doors
and rear windows, use the child lock.
Take care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of
the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

"ISOFIX" mountings
Your vehicle has been approved in accordance
with the latest ISOFIX regulation.
The seats, shown below, are fitted with
regulation ISOFIX mountings:
There are three rings for each seat:
-
T
wo rings A , located between the vehicle
seat back and cushion, indicated by a
marking. -

A r
ing B, located under a cover on the back
of the top of the seat backrest, referred to
as the TOP TETHER for fixing the upper
strap. Its position is indicated by a marking.
The TOP TETHER is used to secure the upper
strap of child seats that have them. This device
limits for ward tipping of the child seat, in the
event of a front impact.
This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in your
vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two
latches which are easily secured on the two
rings A .
Some also have an upper strap which is
attached to ring B . To secure the child seat to the TOP TETHER:
-
P ass the child seat strap over the centre of
the vehicle's seat backrest.
-

L
ift the TOP TETHER cover.
-

S
ecure the upper strap fixing to the ring B.
-

T
ighten the upper strap.
When installing an ISOFIX child seat on the
right hand rear seat, before securing the seat,
first move the centre rear seat belt towards the
middle of the vehicle, so as to not inter fere with
the operation of the seat belt.
The incorrect installation of a child seat
in a vehicle compromises the child's
protection in case of accident.
Strictly observe the fitting instructions
provided with the child seat.
For information on the possibilities for installing
ISOFIX child seats in your vehicle, refer to the
summary table.

Exceeding programmed
speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal in order to
exceed the programmed speed will have
no effect unless you press the pedal firmly
beyond the point of resistance .
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the programmed speed, which is still
displayed, flashes, accompanied by an audible
signal.
Returning to the programmed speed, by means
of intentional or unintentional deceleration of
the vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing
of the programmed speed and the audible
signal stops.
Exiting the limiter mode Malfunction
In the event of a speed limiter fault, the speed
is cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes.
Have them checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
On a steep descent or in the event of
sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will
not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
