GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS
Although one of CITROËN's main
criteria when designing your vehi-
cle, the safety of your children also
depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow
these precautions:
- 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
fi tted with a seat belt or ISOFIX
mountings * ,
-
statistically, the safest seats in
your vehicle for the transpor-
tation 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.
CITROËN recommends that chil-
dren should travel in the rear seats
of your vehicle:
-
"rearwards-facing" up to the
age of 2,
- over
"forwards-facing"
age of 2.

"Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child
seat is installed on the front pas-
senger 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 infl ate.
