RELATING TO CHILD SEATS
CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT
Although one of CITROËN's main
criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also de-
pends on you.
"Rearwards-facing"
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat
is installed on the front passenger
seat, adjust the vehicle's seat to the
intermediate longitudinal position
with the seat back upright and leave
the passenger airbag activated.
When a "rearwards-facing"
child seat is installed on the
front passenger seat, it is
essential that the passenger
airbag is deactivated. Otherwise, the
child would risk being seriously
injured or killed if the airbag were
to inflate.
For maximum safety, please
observe the following recom-
mendations:
-
in accordance with European
regulations, all children under
the age of 12 or less than one
and a half metres 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 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.
CITROËN recommends that chil-
dren should travel in the rear seats
of your vehicle:
Intermediate longitudinal
position
-
"rearwards-facing" up to the
age of 2,
*
The rules for carrying children are
specific to each country. Refer to the
current legislation in your country.
-
"forwards-facing" over the
age of 2.
