Advice
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
make it unstable.
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.
In the rear, always leave sufficient space
between the front seat and:
-
a "
rear ward facing" child seat,
-
t
he feet of a child seated in a "for ward
facing" child seat.
For this, move the seat for ward and, if
necessary, straighten its backrest too.
For optimal installation of the "forward facing"
child seat, ensure that its backrest is as close
as possible to the backrest of the vehicle
seat, if possible in contact with it. The head restraint must be removed before
installing a child seat with a backrest on a
passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from being
thrown around the vehicle in the event of
sharp braking. Refit the head restraint once
the child seat has been removed.
CITROËN recommends 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 unattended in
a vehicle,
-
a c
hild or an animal in a vehicle exposed
to the sun, with the windows closed,
-
t
he keys within the 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.
Children in the front
The legislation on carrying children on the
front passenger seat is specific to each
country. Refer to 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.

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:
-
e
nsure that the mat is secured
c o r r e c t l y,
-
d
o not fit one mat on top of another.Cruise control
System which automatically
maintains the speed of the vehicle
at the value programmed by the
driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on manually: it
requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25
mph
(40
km/h).
As well as the engagement of:
-
F
ourth gear on a manual gearbox.
-
S
econd gear on an automatic gearbox, in
sequential mode.
-
Position D with an automatic gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off manually
or by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or on
triggering of the trajectory control systems for
safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by pressing the accelerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed setting.
Cruise control cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need to respect speed limits, nor can it replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.

Operating fault
In the event of a cruise control fault, the speed
is cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.When the cruise control is switched on,
be careful if you maintain the pressure on
one of the programmed speed changing
buttons: this may result in a very rapid
change in the speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
E
nsure that mats are secured correctly.
-
D
o not fit one mat on top of another.
Rear parking sensors
This system indicates the proximity of an
obstacle (person, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.)
entering the field of detection of sensors
located in the bumper.
Due to blind spots, obstacles of certain types
(posts, roadworks cones, etc.) which were
detected initially won't be any longer by the end
of the operation.
This system cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The system is switched on by engaging reverse
gear. It is accompanied by an audible signal.
The system is switched off when you come out
of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
The proximity information is given by an
intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
which increases as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle.
The sound emitted by the speaker (right or
left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is
located.
When the distance between the vehicle and
the obstacle becomes less than approximately
thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes
continuous.
