It is essential to install a CITROËN approved electronic unit when having a towbar fi tted, in order to prevent any risk of malfunction or damage (risk of fi re).
If you are towing another vehicle, the latter must be free-wheeling (gearbox in neutral).
Do not exceed the maximum permitted load.
For the maximum distributed load on the roof bars: see the chapter “General”.
Towing (Boat, caravan, etc.)
If you are climbing a steep gradient and the engine gets excessively hot, certain functions become unavailable (e.g. sequential control of the automatic gearbox, the air conditioning).
If you are towing with a device not approved by the CITROËN network, you must deactivate parking assistance usi ng the button on the dashboard. See “Parking assistance”.
It is recommended that you remove the towing ball, so that it does not interfere with the functioning of the prox-imity sensors, when you are not using a trailer.
Roof bars
For your safety and to avoid damage to the roof, you should use roof bars that are tested and approved by AUTOMOBILES CITROËN for the design of your par-should use roof bars that are tested and approved by bars that are
ticular vehicle.
Recommendations:Spread the load evenly, avoiding overloading on one side.
Position the heaviest weight as low down as pos-sible.Tie the load down securely and add warning signs if it is protruding.
Drive conservatively, as the vehicle will be more vul-nerable to side winds.
The stability of your vehicle may be altered.Remove the roof rack or roof bars when you are not using them.

Puncture kit
The puncture repair kit is located in the boot.
The puncture repair kit is a com-plete system including a compres-sor and a setting product.
Using the puncture repair kit1. Remove the sticker found in the kit, then stick it on the steering wheel to remind you that you are driving with a wheel that is only fi t for tempo-rary use and that your speed is therefore limited.2. Connect the fl ask 1 to the valve of the tyre to be repaired.3. Connect the electric cable to one of the vehicle's 12V sock-ets.
4. With the engine running, start the compressor by pressing on button A until the tyre pressure reaches 2,0 bars. If you cannot reach a pressure of 2 bars, the tyre is not repairable.5. Remove and store the com-pressor.6. Drive off immediately, for a few miles at reduced speed, to allow the puncture repair to set.7. Adjust the tyre pressure using the compressor according to the recommendations for the vehicle, and check that there is no air escaping (no loss of pressure). If you cannot reach a pressure of 2 bars, the tyre is not repairable.8. Do not exceed 110 km/h (68 mph). The tyre must be exam-ined and repaired by a profes-sional as soon as possible.
Warning, the fl ask of puncture repair gel contains ethylene-glycol, a product that is toxic if ingested and irritating for the eyes.
Keep out of the reach of children.
After use, do not dispose of the fl ask in the natural envi ronment, but return it to a CITROËN dealer or to a recognised recovery facility.
This repair kit is available from a CITROËN dealer.
