LOAD SPACE LAYOUT
Depending on the vehicle’s equipment, the
various fittings below enhance your load
space. Locations for stowing rail
Locations for securing a stowing rail are
available on each side of the vehicle.
Stowing rings
Use the stowing rings on the rear floor to
secure your loads.
As a safety precaution in case of sharp
braking, you are advised to place heavy
objects as far forwards towards the cab as
possible.
You are advised to immobilise the load by
securing it firmly using the stowing rings on
the floor. Trims
The lower parts of the sides are fitted with
load protection trims.
Roof box on raised version
This is a storage compartment located in the
load space, above the cab roof.

For more information about weights,
refer to the administrative documents
(V5 registration document, ...) or to the
"Weights" section of chapter 9.
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...

Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest objects are as close as possible
to the axle and the nose weight is close to
the maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.
Driving advice
A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in
neutral.

140
Towing a trailer
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature. Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identification
features" section of chapter 9) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressure. Towbar
We recommend the use of original
CITROËN towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle, and that
you entrust the fitting of this equipment to a
CITROËN dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted using
the electrical pre-equipment installed at the
rear of the vehicle and in accordance with
the manufacturer ’s instructions.
In accordance with the general instructions
a reminder of which has been given above,
we draw your attention to the risk linked with
fitting a towbar or electrical accessory not
recommended by CITROËN . Fitting such
equipment could result in the failure of your
vehicle’s electronic system. Please contact
a CITROËN dealer for information before
fitting this type of equipment.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 7.
Good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a steep
slope in high temperatures), the engine
automatically limits its power. In this
case, the automatic cutting off of the air
conditioning allows the engine power to be
recovered.
If the coolant temperature warning
light comes on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine as soon
as possible.
Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change down
early and brake gradually.

Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased.
Drive smoothly and at a moderate speed.

ABS/ESP
The ABS or ESP systems only control the
vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.

Rear parking assistance
The assistance does not function while the
vehicle is towing.

The wheel is refitted as described in step 5,
not forgetting to refit the wheel trim.
The spare wheel is not designed to be used
over long distances. Have the tightening of
the bolts and the tyre pressure checked by a
CITROËN dealer as soon as possible. Also,
have the original wheel repaired and refitted
by a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible. Refer to the "Identification features"
section of chapter 9 to locate the tyre
label.
