CHILD SAFETY
GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS
Although one of CITROËN main criteria
when designing your vehicle, the safety of
your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow these
precautions:
- all children under the age of 12 or less than one metre fifty tall must travel in
approved child seats suited to their
weight, on seats fitted with a seat belt or
ISOFIX mountings.
- statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for the transportation of children
are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the "rearwards-facing" position
both in the front and in the rear.
"Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, it
is essential that the passenger air bag is
disarmed. Otherwise, the child would risk
being seriously injured or killed if the air bag
were to inflate.
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat, leave
the passenger air bag armed.
INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT USING A THREE POINT SEAT B ELT
The rules for transporting children are
specific to each country. Consult the current
legislation in your country.
Please consult the list of seats approved
in your country. The isofix mountings, the
rear seats, the passenger air bag and the
disarming of this air bag depend on the
version sold.
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.

Chapter 5, "Air bags" section. "ISOFIX" MOUNTINGS
The mountings comprise three rings for each seat:
- two front rings, located between the vehicle seat back and cushion, indicated
by a label,
- a rear ring, for securing the upper strap referred to as the TOP TETHER,
indicated by another label.
The child seats function and the
passenger air bag disarming function
are shared by the entire CITROËN range.
The front bench is fixed and has no
longitudinal adjustment.
The passenger must not travel with a child
on his lap.
In the absence of the disarming of the
passenger air bag, the installation of a
"rear-facing" child seat on the front seats is
strictly prohibited. Your vehicle has been approved in
accordance with the new ISOFIX regulation.
If fitted on your vehicle, the regulation
ISOFIX mountings are located by labels. This ISOFIX mounting system guarantees
you fast, reliable and safe fitting of the child
seat in your vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two
locks which are secured easily on the two
front rings.
Some also have an upper strap which is
attached to the rear ring.
To attach this strap, raise the vehicle seat's
head restraint then pass the hook between
its rods. Then fix the hook on the rear ring
and tighten the upper strap.
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a
vehicle compromises the child's protection in
the event of an accident.
For information regarding the ISOFIX child
seats which can be installed in your vehicle,
consult the summary table for the location of
the ISOFIX child seats.
