Although one of CITROËN's main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safety of your children 
also depends on you.

General points relating to child seats

For maximum safety, please observe the 
following recommendations:

*  The regulations on carrying children are 

specific to each country. Refer to the 
legislation in force in your country.

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.

-  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 rearward facing position 
both in the front and in the rear.

Child seat at the rear

Rearward facing

When a rearward facing child seat is installed 
on a rear passenger seat

, move the vehicle's 

front seat forward and straighten the backrest 
so that the rearward facing child seat does not 
touch the vehicle's front seat.

Forward facing

When a forward facing child seat is installed 
on a rear passenger seat

, move the vehicle's 

front seat forward and straighten the backrest 
so that the legs of the child in the forward 
facing child seat do not touch the vehicle's front 
seat.

Centre rear seat

A child seat with a support leg must never be 
installed on the centre rear passenger seat

.

Ensure that the seat belt is correctly 
tensioned.
For child seats with a support leg, 
ensure that this is in firm contact with 
the floor. If necessary, adjust the front 
seat of the vehicle.

The incorrect installation of a child seat 
in a vehicle compromises the protection 
of the child in the event of an accident.

Advice

Children at the front

The legislation on carrying children on the 
front passenger seat is specific to each 
country. Refer to the legislation in force in 
your country.
Deactivate the passenger's front airbag 
when a rearward facing child seat is installed 
on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child risks being seriously 
injured or killed if the airbag is deployed.

Installing a booster seat

The chest part of the seat belt must be 
positioned on the child's shoulder without 
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt 
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
CITROËN recommends the use of a booster 
seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt 
guide at shoulder level.

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a 
vehicle compromises the child's protection in 
the event of an accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt 
buckle under the child seat, as this could 
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the 
child seat harnesses keeping the slack 
relative to the child's body to a minimum, 
even for short journeys.
When installing a child seat using the seat 
belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened 
correctly on the child seat and that it secures 
the child seat firmly on the seat of your 
vehicle. If your passenger seat is adjustable, 
move it forwards if necessary.
At rear seating positions, always leave 
sufficient space between the front seat and:
-  a rearward facing child seat,
-  the child's feet for a child seat fitted 

forward facing.

To do this, move the front seat forwards 
and, if necessary, move its backrest into the 
upright position.

For optimum installation of the forward facing 
child seat, ensure that the back of the child 
seat is as close as possible to the backrest 
of the vehicle's seat, in contact if possible.
You must remove the head restraint before 
installing a child seat with backrest to a 
passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored or 
attached securely to prevent it from being 
thrown around the vehicle in the event of 
sharp braking. Refit the head restraint when 
the child seat is removed.

As a safety precaution, do not leave:

a child or children alone and 
unsupervised in a vehicle,

-  a child or an animal in a vehicle which 

is exposed to the sun, with the windows 
closed,

-  the keys within reach of children inside 

the vehicle.

To prevent accidental opening of the doors 
and rear windows, use the child lock.
Take care not to open the rear windows by 
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of 
the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

"ISOFIX" mountings

Your vehicle has been approved in accordance 
with the latest ISOFIX regulations

.

The outer rear seats are fitted with regulation 
ISOFIX mountings.

There are three rings for each outer rear seat:
-  two lower rings A, located between the 

vehicle seat back and cushion, indicated by 
a marking,

-  an upper ring B, called the TOP 

TETHER

, fixed to the rear shelf and 

located under a cover behind the head 
restraint behind the head restraint, for 
fixing the upper strap.

 

It is indicated by a marking.

There are three rings for each outer rear seat:
-  two lower rings A, located between the 

vehicle seat back and cushion, indicated by 
a marking,

-  an upper ring C, called the TOP TETHER

fixed to the roof on the boot end and 
located under a cover, for fixing the upper 
strap.

 

It is indicated by a marking.

Tourer

Safety

170

C5_en_Chap06_securite_ed01-2016

To attach the child seat to the TOP TETHER:
-  remove and stow the head restraint before 

installing a child seat on this seat (refit it 
once the child seat has been removed),

pass the strap of the child seat centrally 
between the head restraint rod apertures,

raise the TOP TETHER cover, located on 
the rear shelf (Saloon) or the roof (Tourer),

-  secure the upper strap fixing to the ring B 

or C,

-  tighten the upper strap.

The TOP TETHER is used to secure the 
upper strap of child seats that have one. This 
arrangement limits the forward tipping of the 
child seat in the event of a front impact.

The incorrect installation of a child seat 
in a vehicle compromises the child's 
protection in the event of an accident.

Observe strictly the fitting instructions 
provided with the child seat.

This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast, 
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in 
your vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with 
two latches which are secured easily on the 
two rings A, following installation of the guides 
(supplied with the seat).
Some also have an upper strap which is 
attached to the ring B or C.

For information on the possibilities for 
installing ISOFIX child seats in your 
vehicle, refer to the summary table.
