Advice
Children at the front
The legislation on carrying children on the
front passenger seat is specific to each
country. Refer to the legislation in force in
your country.
Deactivate the passenger's front airbag
when a rear ward facing child seat is installed
on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child risks being seriously
injured or killed if the airbag is deployed.
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching 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
seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt
guide at shoulder level.
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat, as this could
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses keeping the slack
relative to the child's body to a minimum,
even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat
belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened
correctly on the child seat and that it secures
the child seat firmly on the seat of your
vehicle. If your passenger seat is adjustable,
move it for wards if necessary.
At rear seating positions, always leave
sufficient space between the front seat and:
-
a rear ward facing child seat,
- the child's feet for a child seat fitted
forward facing.
To do this, move the front seat for wards
and, if necessary, move its backrest into the
upright position. For optimum installation of the forward facing
child seat, ensure that the back of the child
seat is as close as possible to the backrest
of the vehicle's seat, in contact if possible.
You mst remove the head restraint before
installing a child seat with backrest to a
passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from being
thrown around the vehicle in the event of
sharp braking. Refit the head restraint when
the child seat is removed.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- a child or children alone and
unsupervised in a vehicle,
- a child or an animal in a vehicle which
is exposed to the sun, with the windows
closed,
- the keys within reach of children inside
the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the doors
and rear windows, use the child lock.
Take care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of
the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

"ISOFIX" mountings
Your vehicle has been approved in accordance
with the latest ISOFIX regulations.
The outer rear seats are fitted with regulation
ISOFIX mountings.
There are three rings for each outer rear seat:
- two lower rings A , located between the
vehicle seat back and cushion, indicated by
a marking,
- an upper ring B , called the TOP
TETHER , fixed to the rear shelf and
located under a cover behind the head
restraint behind the head restraint, for
fixing the upper strap.
It is indicated by a marking. There are three rings for each outer rear seat:
-
two lower rings A , located between the
vehicle seat back and cushion, indicated by
a marking,
- an upper ring C , called the TOP TETHER ,
fixed to the roof on the boot end and
located under a cover, for fixing the upper
strap.
It is indicated by a marking.Saloon Tourer

To attach the child seat to the TOP TETHER:
- remove and stow the head restraint before
installing a child seat on this seat (refit it
once the child seat has been removed),
- pass the strap of the child seat centrally
between the head restraint rod apertures,
- raise the T oP TETHER cover, located on
the rear shelf (Saloon) or the roof (Tourer),
- secure the upper strap fixing to the ring B
or C ,
- tighten the upper strap.
The T
oP TETHER is used to secure the
upper strap of child seats that have one. This
arrangement limits the for ward tipping of the
child seat in the event of a front impact. The incorrect installation of a child seat
in a vehicle compromises the child's
protection in the event of an accident.
Observe strictly the fitting instructions
provided with the child seat.
This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in
your vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with
two latches which are secured easily on the
two rings A
, following installation of the guides
(supplied with the seat).
Some also have an upper strap which is
attached to the ring B or C . For information on the possibilities for
installing ISOFIX child seats in your
vehicle, refer to the summary table.
