FUEL TANK
Capacity of the tank: approxi-
mately 60 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is
reached, this warning lamp
on the instrument panel
comes on, accompanied by
an audible warning and a message
on the multifunction screen.
When it fi rst comes on, about 7 litres
of fuel remain in the tank.
Until suffi cient fuel has been
added, this warning lamp appears
every time the ignition is switched
on, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message. Depending
on version, this audible warning
and message are repeated with
increasing frequency as the fuel
level drops towards " 0
".
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out. A label on the inside of the fuel fi ller
fl ap reminds you of the type of fuel
to use, depending on your engine
type.
Additions of fuel must be of at least
5 litres to be registered by the fuel
gauge.
Refuelling

the top, do not persist after the
3rd cut-off; this could cause
malfunctions.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with

CHILD SAFETY
*
According to country and current
local legislation.
ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must
be positioned on the child's shoul-
der 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,
fi tted with a seat belt guide at
shoulder level.
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.
To prevent accidental opening of the
doors, use the "Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear win-
dows by more than one third.
To protect young children from the
rays of the sun, fi t side blinds on the
rear windows.
The incorrect installation of a child
seat in a vehicle compromises the
child's protection in the event of an
accident.
When installing a child seat using the
seat belt, check that the seat belt is
tightened correctly on the child seat
and that it secures the child seat
fi rmly on the seat of your vehicle.
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-
wards-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 "forwards-facing"
position on the front passenger seat,
unless the rear seats are already oc-
cupied by other children, cannot be
used or are absent.
Deactivate the passenger airbag *
when a "rearwards-facing" child
seat is installed on the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk be-
ing seriously injured or killed if the
airbag were to infl ate.

SAFETY
Deactivation
This warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel when
the ignition is on and until the
airbag is reactivated.
To ensure the safety of your child,
it is imperative that the passenger
airbag is deactivated when you in-
