Incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises
protection of the child in the event
of a collision. The ISOFIX fasten-
ing system enables you to reduce
those risks posed by incorrect
fitting, offering you a convenient,
strong and reliable fitting for a
child seat in your vehicle.
In the front passenger’s seat, it is essential to deactivate the
front passenger’s airbag as soon as a “rear-facing” child seat is
installed in this position. Otherwise the child risks be ing killed or
seriously injured should the airbag deploy.
Take care to comply with the fitting instructions given in the ch ild
seat manufacturer’s user guide.
The ISOFIX child seat recommended for your vehicle is:
ISOFIX RÖMER Duo:
It is marketed in the CITROËN network. It is equipped with
a top belt and
so it is approved as an “ISOFIX universal” child seat.
If it is installed in a rear seat position, the vehicle’s corre sponding front
seat should be adjusted so that the child’s feet do not t ouch the backrest
of this front seat.
This ISOFIX child seat can also be installed in seat position s that are not
equipped with ISOFIX anchoring points. In this case, it is co mpulsory to
secure it to the vehicle seat by means of the vehicle seat belt .
