ISOFIX anchoring points and the ISOFIX fastening system
The rear seats of your vehicle are equipped with ISOFIX anchoring points. These consist of 2 rings located between the backrest and the vehicle seat, approx. 28 cm apart.
ISOFIX child seats are equipped with 2 latches which are eay to attach to these rings. This fi xing system is intended for children weighing up to 18 kg.
Incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises protec-tion of the child in the event of a col-lision. The ISOFIX system enables you to minimise the risks posed by incorrect fi tting. The ISOFIX fas-tening system gives you a conven-ient, strong and reliable fi tting for a child seat in your vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats approved (1) for your vehicle are:
The KIDDY ISOFIX (1):
This is marketed in the CITROËN network. It can be installed “rear-facing” from birth to 13 kg and “forward-facing” from 9 to 18 kg.
Advice on installing your KIDDY ISOFIX child seat:When this seat is installed “forward-facing”, the vehicle front seat should be adjusted to an intermediate fore/aft position, backrest upright.If “rear-facing”, the shell of the child seat should be in con tact with the backrest of the vehicle front seat.
The “rear-facing” position for the Isofi x KIDDY is not authorised on seats that are individually adjustable.
The RÖMER Duo ISOFIX (1):
This child seat is approved for children from 9 to 18 kg. It must be installed only in the “forward-facing” position. The vehicle's corresponding front seat should be adjusted so that the child's feet are not touching its backrest (slide the rear seat as far rearwards as possible). The use of the top b elt, called Top Tether, is not necessary.
These child seats can also be installed in seat positions that are not equipped with ISOFIX anchorages. In this case, they must be secured to the vehicle seat by means of the vehicle seat belt.
(1): On ISOFIX anchorages, you may fi x only the ISOFIX child seats t hat are approved for your vehicle.
