GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS
Although one of CITROËN's main
criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also de-
pends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow
these precautions:
- all children under the age of 12
o r l e s s t h a n o n e m e t r e fi f t y t a l l
must travel in approved child
seats suited to their weight ,
o n s e a t s fi t t e d w i t h a s e a t b e l t o r
ISOFIX mountings * .
- a child weighing less than 9 kg
must travel in the "rearwards-
facing" position in the front.
SEAT BELT
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat
is installed on the front passenger
seat , adjust the vehicle's seat to the
intermediate longitudinal position
with the seat back upright and leave
the passenger air bag armed.
* The rules for transporting chil- d r e n a r e s p e c i fi c t o e a c h c o u n t r y .
Consult the current legislation in
your country. Intermediate longitudinal
position
"Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat
is installed on the
front passenger

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
The incorrect installation of a
child seat in a vehicle com-
promises the child's protection in the
event of an accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or
the child seat harnesses keeping the
slack in relation to the child's body to
a minimum, even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the "for-
ward facing" child seat, ensure that
the back of the child seat is in contact
with the back of the vehicle's seat
and that the head restraint does not
cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be re-
moved, ensure that it is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from
being thrown around the vehicle in
the event of sharp braking. Children under the age of 10 must not
travel in the "forward facing" position
on the front passenger seat, unless
the rear seats are already occupied
by other children, cannot be used or
are absent.
Disarm the passenger air bag when
a "rear facing" child seat is installed
on the front seat. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
k i l l e d i f t h e a i r b a g w e r e t o i n fl a t e .
As a safety precaution, do not 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.
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 b o o s t e r s e a t w h i c h h a s a b a c k , fi t -
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level. To prevent accidental
opening of the doors, use
the "Child lock".
Take care not to open the
rear windows by more than
one third.

belts correctly and that they
are all properly restrained
before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the ve-
hicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even for short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as
t h e y w i l l n o t f u l fi l t h e i r r o l e f u l l y .

tomatic locking device which comes
into operation in the event of a colli-
sion, on emergency braking or if the
vehicle rolls over. You can release
the device by pulling rapidly on the
strap and releasing it. In order to be effective, a seat belt:
- must be tightened as close to the
body as possible,
- must restrain one adult only,
- must not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- must be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking
that it does not twist,
- must not be transformed or modi- fi e d t o a v o i d a l t e r i n g i t s p e r f o r m -
ance.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, all repairs and checks
must be carried out by a CITROËN
dealer who guarantees that the work
is carried out correctly.
Have your seat belts checked regu-
larly by a CITROËN dealer and par-
ticularly if the straps show signs of
damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by CITROËN dealers.
* According to model.
Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the pas-
senger is less than 12 years old or
s h o r t e r t h a n o n e m e t r e fi f t y ,
- do not use the strap-guide * when a child seat is installed.
- never use the same seat belt to secure more than one person,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap.
Depending on the nature and se-
riousness of the impacts , the pre-
tensioning device may be triggered
before and independently of the air
bags. Triggering of the pre-tensioners
is accompanied by a slight emission
of harmless smoke and a noise, due
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the air bag warning lamp
comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat
belts system checked, and if neces-
sary replaced, by a CITROËN dealer.
After folding or moving a
seat or rear bench seat,
ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and rolled up
correctly.
