ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
The incorrect installation of a child seat
in a vehicle compromises the child's
protection in the event of an accident.
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.
For optimum installation of the "forward
facing" child seat, ensure that the back
of the child seat is in contact with the
back of the vehicle's seat and that the
head restraint does not cause any
discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be removed,
ensure that it is stored or attached
securely to prevent it from being
thrown around the vehicle in the event
of sharp braking.
Children under the age of 10 must not
travel in the "forward facing" position
on the front passenger seat, unless
the rear seats are already occupied by
other children, cannot be used or are
absent.
Disarm the passenger airbag when a
"rear facing" child seat is installed on
the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
were to infl ate.

As a safety precaution, do not leave: - one or more children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
- a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with the
windows closed,
- the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle.
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, fi tted
with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.
CHILD LOCK
This prevents opening of the side
doors from the inside. Manual mode
A label indicates the location of the
child lock.

the child lock each time the ignition is
switched on.
In the event of a serious impact the
electric child lock is deactivated
automatically.
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
