Advice
Sit  in   a   normal   upright   position.
Wear
  a   correctly   adjusted   seat   belt.
Do not allow anything to come between
the occupants and the airbags
(a
  child,   pet,   object...),   do   not   attach   or  
fix

  anything   near   to   the   airbags   or   their  
trajectories

  when   inflating   as   this   could  
cause

  injuries   when   the   airbags   are  
deployed.
Never

  modify   the   original   definition   of  
your vehicle, particularly in the area
directly

  around   the   airbags.
After an accident or if the vehicle has
been
  stolen   or   broken   into,   have   the  
airbag

  systems   checked.
All
  work   on   the   airbag   system   must   be  
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified

  workshop.
Even if all of the precautions
mentioned
  are   observed,   a   risk   of  
injury

  or   of   minor   burns   to   the   head,  
chest or arms when an airbag is
deployed

  cannot   be   ruled   out.  
The
 
bag inflates

  almost   instantly   (within   a  
few

  milliseconds)   then   deflates   within  
the same time discharging the hot gas
via

  openings   provided   for   this   purpose.Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by
  its   spokes   or   resting   your   hands   on  
the

  centre   part   of   the   wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet
on
  the   dashboard.
Do
  not   smoke   as   deployment   of   the  
airbags

  can   cause   burns   or   the   risk   of  
injury

  from   a   cigarette   or   pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering
wheel
  or   hit   it   violently.
Do
  not   fit   or   attach   anything   to   the  
steering wheel or dashboard, this could
cause

  injuries   with   deployment   of   the  
airbags.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the
seats, compatible with the deployment
the

  lateral   airbags.   For   information  
on the range of seat covers suitable
for your vehicle, you can contact a
CITROËN dealer

.
For more information on accessories,
refer to "Other accessories" in
section 6.
Do
  not   fix   or   attach   anything   to   the   seat  
backs

  (clothing...).  
This
  could   cause  
injury

  to   the   chest   or   arms   if   the   lateral  
airbag

  is   deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the
body any nearer to the door than
necessary.
Airbags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
This
 
equipment
 
only
 
operates
 
once.
 
If a second impact occurs (during the
same or a subsequent accident), the
airbag

 
will
 
not
 
operate.
The deployment of an airbag or airbags
is accompanied by a slight discharge
of
 
smoke
 
and
 
a
 
noise,
 
due
 
to
 
the
 
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated

 
in
 
the
 
system.
This
 
smoke
 
is
 
not
 
harmful,
 
but
 
sensitive individuals may experience
some

 
irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time.
The passenger's front airbag must
be deactivated if a child seat is
installed
 
rearward
 
facing.

plane directed from the front towards
the  rear   of   the   vehicle.

Front airbag fault
To ensure the safety of your child,
it is essential to deactivate the
passenger's front airbag when you

the

  child   would   risk   being   killed   or  
seriously

  injured   if   the   airbag   were

turn the passenger's front airbag switch
to the "ON" position to reactivate the
airbag and thus ensure the safety
of your passenger in the event of an
impact.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
At the rear, always leave sufficient space  between   the   front   seat   and:
-

a rearward facing child seat,
-


the feet of a child seated in a
forward

  facing   child   seat.
For this, move the front seat forward
and, if necessary, straighten its
backrest
  as   well.
The incorrect installation of a child seat
in a vehicle compromises the child's
protection
  in   the   event   of   an   accident.
Check   that   there   is   no   seat   belt   or   seat  
belt

  buckle   under   the   child   seat,   as   this  
could

  destabilise   the   seat.
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.
For the installation of a child seat using
the seat belt, ensure that the seat belt
is well tensioned on the child seat
and that it is holding the child seat
firmly   against   the   vehicle's   seat.   If   the  
passenger

  seat   is   adjustable,   move   it  
forward

  if   necessary. For the optimum installation of a
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,

  or   in   contact   if   possible.
The head restraint must be removed
before installing a child seat with a
backrest   on   the   passenger   seat.
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.Children at the front
The legislation on carrying a child on
the
  front   passenger   seat   is   specific   to  
each

  country.   Refer   to   the   legislation   in  
force

  in   your   country.
Deactivate the passenger's airbag
when a rearward facing child seat is
installed
  on   the   front   seat.
Otherwise,
  the   child   would   risk   being  
seriously

  injured   or   killed   if   the   airbag  
were

  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.
As
  a   safety   precaution,   never   leave:
-

one or more 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,
  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   to   the   rear  
windows.
For an installation in row 3, put the
backrests

 
of
 
the
 
outer
 
and
 
centre
 seats in row 2 in the table position, or
remove these seats in row 2, so that
the child seat or the child's legs do not
touch
 
the
 
seats
 
in
 
row
 
2.
