In order to be effective, a seat belt:
recommendations for children
In accordance with current safety
regulations, your CITROËN dealer can
guarantee all work or any checks, from
testing to maintenance, on your seat belt
equipment.
-
must restrain one person only,
Use an appropriate child seat if the
passenger is under 10 years or less than
one and a half metres tall.
-
must not be twisted, check by pulling in
front of you with an even movement,
Never carry a child on your knees, even with
the seat belt fastened.
-
must be tightened as close to the body
as possible.
Have the seat belts checked regularly (even
after a minor impact) by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop: they must not show
any signs of wear, cutting or fraying and they
must not be converted or modified.
The upper part of the seat belt should be
positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
For more information on child seats,
refer to the "Safety - Children on board"
section.
The lap part should be placed as low as
possible on the pelvis.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they
will not fulfil their role completely. If the
seats are fitted with armrests, the lap part of
the seat belt should always pass under the
armrest.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product, sold
by CITROËN dealers.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly
by pulling the strap firmly.
