Safety Recommendations
Child seats The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's protection in the event of an accident. Check 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 in relation to the child's body to a minimum, even for short journeys. For the installation of a child seat using a seat belt, ensure that this is well tensioned on the child seat and that it is holding the child seat firmly against the seat of your vehicle. If your front passenger seat is adjustable, move it forward if necessary. at the rear seats, always leave sufficient space between the front seat and: - a rearward facing child seat, the feet of a child seated in a forward facing child seat.
For this, move the front seat forward and if necessary straighten its backrest. 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, or in contact if possible. The head restraint must be removed before installing a child seat with a backrest on the passenger seat. Ensure that the head restraint is stowed or attached securely so that it is not thrown around the vehicle in the event of sharp braking. Refit the head restraint as soon as the child seat is removed.
Children at the front The legislation on carrying a child on the front passenger seat is specific to each country. Refer to the legislation in force in the country in which you are driving. Deactivate the passenger's front airbag when a rearward facing child seat is installed on the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if the airbag were deployed.
Installing a booster cushion 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.
-
As a safety precaution, do not leave: one or more 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, 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.

Procedure for starting the engine using another battery or charging a discharged battery. Access to the battery
The battery is located under the bonnet. For access to the (+) terminal: F
release the bonnet using the interior lever, then the exterior safety catch, raise the bonnet and secure it with its stay, lift the plastic cover for access to the (+) terminal.
The presence of this label, in particular with the Stop & Start system, indicates the use of a 12 V lead-acid battery with special technology and specification; the involvement of a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop is essential when replacing or disconnecting the battery.
After refitting the battery, the Stop & Start system will only be active after a continuous period of immobilisation of the vehicle, a period which depends on the climatic conditions and the state of charge of the battery (up to about 8 hours).
286
Starting using another battery When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the engine can be started using a slave battery (external or on another vehicle) and jump lead cables.
First check that the slave battery has a nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity at least equal to that of the discharged battery. Do not try to start the engine by connecting a battery charger. Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when the engine is running.
Practical information F Remove the plastic cover from the (+)
terminal, if your vehicle has one.
F Connect the red cable to the positive
terminal (+) of the flat battery A, then to the positive terminal (+) of the slave battery B.
F Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative terminal (-) of the slave battery B (or earth point on the other vehicle).
Some functions are not available if the battery is not sufficiently charged.
F Connect the other end of the green or black
cable to the earth point C on the broken down vehicle (or on the engine mounting).
F Start the engine of the vehicle with the
good battery and leave it running for a few minutes.
F Operate the starter on the broken down
vehicle and let the engine run. If the engine does not start straight away, switch off the ignition and wait a few moments before trying again.
F Wait until the engine returns to idle then disconnect the jump lead cables in the reverse order.
F Refit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if
your vehicle has one.
Before disconnecting the battery Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition before disconnecting the battery. Close the windows and the doors before disconnecting the battery.
Following reconnection of the battery Following reconnection of the battery, switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute before starting to permit initialisation of the electronic systems.
