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  
p

asses   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  
a

ttached 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

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

event
 
of
 
an

Check
 
that
 
there

Remember
 
to
 
fasten
 
the

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

using
 
a
 
s

seat,
-

t
