Safety

82
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection
in the event of an accident.
Check 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 in
relation to the child's body to a minimum,
even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat
belt, check 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 ward if necessary.
At the rear seats, always leave sufficient
space between the front seat and:
-
a r
ear ward facing child seat,
-

t
he feet of a child seated in a for ward
facing child seat.
For this, move the front seat for ward and if
necessary straighten its backrest.
Advice on child seats
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 legislation in force in your
c o unt r y.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag when
a rear ward facing child seat is installed on
the front seat.
Other wise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag were
deployed. For optimum installation of a for ward facing
child seat, ensure that the back of the
child seat is as close as possible to the
backrest of the vehicle's seat, or in contact
if possible.
The head restraint must be removed before
installing a child seat with a backrest on
the passenger seat. Ensure that the head
restraint is stowed or attached securely so
that it is not thrown around the vehicle in
the event of sharp braking.
Refit the head restraint as soon as the child
seat is removed.
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 recommends the use of a
booster seat which has a back, fitted with a
seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
-

o
ne or more 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,
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.
