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.

This type of control unit that has a system for
recognising the type of power point (depending
on country). It detects the power rating of your
domestic power point and is able to support
and select the best current rating to ensure
safe charging:
-
14
A (FAST): if your electrical installation
supports it.
-

8 A
(NORMAL): if your electrical
installation is standard. As a safety measure, the motor will
not start when the charging cable is
connected to the vehicle's socket.
Also, any attempt to start the motor
interrupts the charging procedure. It will
then be necessary to disconnect and
reconnect the charging cable plug to
continue charging.
The charge lamp in the instrument panel going
off and flashing of the green CHARGING lamp
indicate that charging is complete.

possible to charge the main battery.
While charging, do not do anything
under the bonnet, even with the ignition
off, as the cooling fan may start at any
time (risk of injury).
You must wait for at least one hour
after the end of the charging procedure
before doing anything under the bonnet,
as some areas may be extremely hot
(risk of burns).

Checking componentsUnless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Passenger compartment filter
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for this filter.
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to have
the condition of the brakes checked,
even between vehicle services.
Brake pads
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent
quality and specifications.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, CITROËN selects and offers
very specific products.
Parking brake
If a loss of effectiveness of this
system is noticed, the parking brake
must be checked, even between
two services.
Brake disc / drum wear
For information on checking the
brake disc or drum wear, contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
This system must be checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn. Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g.

city driving), replace it twice as often
if necessary .
A dirty passenger compartment filter may have
an adverse effect on the per formance of the air
conditioning system and generate undesirable
odours.
