Child seats
Recommendations
Installing a booster
cushion
The chest part of the seat belt must be positioned   on   the   child's   shoulder   without  
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.
As
  a   safety   precaution,   do   not   leave:
-
 
o
ne   or   more   children   alone   and  
u

nsupervised in a vehicle,
-
 
a
  child   or   an   animal   in   a   vehicle   which  
i

s   exposed   to   the   sun,   with   the   windows  
c

losed,
-
 
t
he   keys   within   reach   of   children   inside  
t

he   vehicle.
To
  prevent   accidental   opening   of   the   doors,  
u

se   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.
Children at the front
For optimum installation o f t he fo rward f acing c
hild   seat,   ensure   that   the   back   of   the   child  
s

eat   is   as   close   as   possible   to   the   backrest  
o

f   the   vehicle's   seat,   or   in   contact   if   possible.
The
  head   restraint   must   be   removed   before  
i

nstalling   a   child   seat   with   a   backrest   on   the  
p

assenger
 sea
t.
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.
The
  legislation   on   carrying   a   child   on   the  
f

ront   passenger   seat   is   specific   to   each  
c

ountry.   Refer   to   the   legislation   in   force   in  
t

he   country   in   which   you   are   driving.
Deactivate
  the   passenger's   front   airbag  
w

hen   a   rear ward   facing   child   seat   is   installed  
o

n   the   front   passenger   seat.   Other wise,   the  
c

hild   would   risk   being   seriously   injured   or  
k

illed   if   the   airbag   were   deployed.
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle
 
compromises
 
the
 
child's
 
protection
 
in
 
t

he
 
event
 
of
 
an
 
accident.
Check
 
that
 
there
 
is
 
no
 
seat
 
belt
 
or
 
seat
 
belt
 
b

uckle
 
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 in
relation
 
to
 
the
 
child's
 
body
 
to a minimum ,
even
 
for
 
short
 
journeys.
For
 
the
 
installation
 
of
 
a
 
child
 
seat
 
using
 
a
 
s

eat belt, ensure that this is well tensioned
on
 
the
 
child
 
seat
 
and
 
that
 
it
 
is
 
holding
 
the
 
c

hild
 
seat
 
firmly
 
against
 
the
 
seat
 
of
 
your
 
v

ehicle.
 
If
 
your
 
front
 
passenger
 
seat
 
is
 
a

djustable,
 
move
 
it
 
for ward
 
if
 
necessary.
At the rear seats, 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
 
front
 
seat
 
for ward
 
and
 
if
