CHILD SAFETY
CITROËN recommends that
children should travel in the rear
seats of your vehicle:
- "rearwards-facing" up to the
age of 2,
- "forwards-facing" over the
age of 2. * The rules for transporting children are

- in accordance with European reg- ulations, all children under the
age of 12 or less than one and a
