Take care of passengers' feet when
manoeuvring the assembly.Incorrect use of the table could cause
serious injury.
Never use the table open or unfolded
while the vehicle is being driven. An
object on the table is turned into a
projectile under heavy braking.
Ensure that the table is correctly stowed
in the low position before moving off.
Never use the table tops as seats or
lean on them.
A label on the table is a reminder of this.Never place hot objects such as
casseroles or cooking pans on the
table, you risk damaging its sur face
(risk of fire).
With the table deployed, each top can
support a maximum of 10 kg. Failure to
observe this maximum load introduces
the risk of damaging all or part of the
table module.
Never raise the table when it is between
individual seats; this risks damaging the
table tops.
Storage off the runner
If removing and storing the table
out of the vehicle, ensure that it is
placed in a clean area, so as to avoid
introducing any foreign bodies into the
mechanisms.
The table assembly must be placed on
a flat and level sur face when out of the
vehicle, resting on the guide so as to
avoid damaging the visible parts.
Caution, when out of the vehicle, the
table leans to the right or left when put
down.

Advice
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of the impact, the
pretensioning device may be deployed
before and independently of the airbags.
Deployment of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp
comes
on.
Following an impact, have the seat belts
system checked, and if necessary replaced,
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
-

b

e tightened as close to the body as
possible,
-

b

e pulled in front of you with a smooth
movement, checking that it does not
twist,
-

b

e used to restrain only one person,
-

n

ot bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
-

n

ot be converted or modified to avoid
affecting its performance.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, for all repairs on your vehicle's
seat belts, go to a qualified workshop with
the skills and equipment needed, which a
CITROËN dealer is able to provide.
Have your seat belts checked regularly by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop,
particularly if the straps show signs of
damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold by
CITROËN dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear bench
seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned
and reeled in correctly.
Recommendations for children
Use a suitable child seat if the passenger is
less than 12 years old or shorter than one
and a half metres.
Never use the same seat belt to secure more
than one person.
Never allow a child to travel on your lap.

to the corresponding section.
The driver must ensure that passengers use
the seat belts correctly and that they are all
fastened before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle,
always fasten your seat belt, even for short
journeys.
Do not interchange the seat belt buckles as
they will not fulfill their role fully.
The seat belts are fitted with an inertia reel
permitting automatic adjustment of the
length of the strap to your size. The seat belt
is stowed automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the seat
belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be
