dashboard, passenger's side, to cushion their
for ward movement.

a serious side impact applied to all or part of
the side impact zone B .
The lateral airbag inflates between the hip and
shoulder of the vehicle's occupant and the
corresponding door trim panel.
Curtain airbags
System contributing towards greater protection
for the driver and passengers (with the
exception of the rear centre passenger) in the
event of a
serious side impact in order to limit
the risk of injury to the side of the head.
Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and
the upper passenger compartment area.
Deployment
It deploys simultaneously with the
corresponding lateral airbag in the event of
a
serious side impact applied to all or part of
the side impact zone B .
The curtain airbag inflates between the front
and rear occupants of the vehicle and the
corresponding windows.
Malfunction
If this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, you must contact
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system

over, the airbags may not be deployed.
In the event of a
rear or front collision,
none of the lateral airbags are deployed.

Children at the rear
At rear seating positions, always leave
sufficient space between the front seat
and:
-
t
he "rear 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, straighten its backrest.
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, if possible in contact with it.
A child seat with ISOFIX or i-Size
mountings must never be installed on the
centre rear passenger seat.
Children at the front
Deactivate the front passenger airbag
when a "rear ward facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were 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.
We recommend using a
booster seat with
backrest, equipped with a
belt guide at
shoulder level.
Additional protections
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.

of the sun, fit side blinds on the rear
windows.
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
which is exposed to the sun, with the
windows closed,
-
t
he keys within reach of children inside
