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
n
ecessary
straighten
its
backrest.
