PRACTICAL INFORMATION
TOWING YOUR VEHICLE
Your vehicle can only be towed at
the front. Lifting (2 wheels only on the
road)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle by
the wheels.
Never use the radiator crossmember.
When your vehicle is being
towed with the engine switched
off, there is no braking or steer-
ing assistance.
Without lifting (4 wheels on
the road)
You should always use a towing bar.
The removable towing eye is stored
in the spare wheel, under the boot
carpet.
Unclip the bottom of the cover,
Screw in the towing eye until it
locks.
Place the gear lever in posi-
tion N for the "SensoDrive"
gearbox.

For further information, contact a
CITROËN dealer.
Please refer to national
legislation in order to comply
with the regulations concerning
the transportation of objects
which are longer than the
vehicle.
Towing with fours wheels on the
road must be carried out at very low
speed over a very short distance (in
accordance with the legislation in
force).
In all other cases, your vehicle must
be transported on a trailer.
Vehicles fitted with a manual
gearbox (diesel version)
I n t h e c a s e o f v e h i c l e s fi t t e d w i t h a

be in the neutral position.
Failure to observe this special
condition may result in damage to
certain braking components and the
absence of braking assistance the
next time the engine is started.
Maximum weight authorised on
the bars, for a loading height not
exceeding 40 cm (except bicycle
carrier): 50 kg.
If the height exceeds 40 cm,
adapt the speed of the vehicle to
