Child seats
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  
o

n   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 t

he 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  
f

acing   child   seat.
Recommendations
For this, move the front seat for ward and if necessary   straighten   its   backrest.
For

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  
a

round   the   vehicle   in   the   event   of   sharp  
b

raking.
Refit
  the   head   restraint   as   soon   as   the   child  
s

eat   is   removed.Installing a booster

-  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.
The
  chest   part   of   the   seat   belt   must   be  
p

ositioned   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
