GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS

CITROËN recommends that

children should travel on the

rear seats of your vehicle:
-

"rearward-facing" up to the

age of 3,

-

"forward-facing" over the

age of 3.

Although one of CITROËN main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safety of

your children also depends on you.

* The rules for carrying children are

specifi c to each country. Refer to the

legislation in force in your country.

For maximum safety, please observe

the following recommendations:
- in accordance with European regu-

lations, all children under the age

of 12 or less than one and a half

metres tall must travel in ap-

proved child seats suited to their

weight , on seats fi tted with a seat

belt or ISOFIX mountings * ,

-

statistically, the safest seats in

your vehicle for carrying 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.

CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT *

"Rearward-facing"

"Forward-facing"

When a "rearward-facing" child seat is

installed on the front passenger seat ,

adjust the seat to the intermediate lon-

gitudinal and highest position, with the

backrest straightened.
The passenger airbag must be deacti-

vated. Otherwise, the child would risk

being seriously injured or killed if

the airbag were to infl ate .

When a "forward-facing" child seat is

installed on the front passenger seat ,

adjust the vehicle's seat to the interme-

diate longitudinal and highest position

with seat backrest straightened and

leave the passenger's airbag activated.

* Refer to the current legislation in your

country before installing a child seat

on this seat.

Ensure that the seat belt is cor-

rectly tensioned.
For child seats with a support

leg, ensure that the support leg

is in stable contact with the fl oor.

If necessary, adjust the passen-

ger seat.
