ABS ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
The ABS system improves vehicle stability
and handling during braking, particularly on
surfaces with poor adhesion (e.g. damaged
or slippery road surfaces).
Note : when changing a wheel (tyres
and rims), ensure that they meet the
manufacturer ’s requirements.
The anti-locking system automatically
intervenes when there is a risk of the wheels
locking.
The normal functioning of the ABS system
may be indicated by light vibrations on the
brake pedal.
When braking in an emergency, press
hard on the brake pedal without releasing
the force.
If the ABS warning lamp lights
up on the instrument panel, this
indicates a malfunction of the ABS
system, which could lead to a loss
of control of the vehicle when braking.
You must stop.
Contact a CITROËN dealer.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock. It does not permit shorter
braking. On very slippery road surfaces
(ice, oil, etc.) the ABS may lengthen the
braking distances. In emergency braking,
do not hesitate to press the brake pedal
firmly, without releasing the pressure, even
on slippery roads, you will then be able to
continue to manoeuvre the vehicle to avoid
an obstacle.

ACCESSORIES
Towing a trailer
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC.
Driving advice
A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in
neutral.

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.
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.

94
Towing a trailer
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.
See the “Levels” section of chapter 7.

Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the “Identification
features” section of chapter 7) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressure.

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: the system only controls the vehicle,
not the trailer.
Rear parking assistance:
the assistance will be deactivated
automatically when a CITROËN towbar is
used (see the “Rear parking assistance”
section of chapter 4).
Towbar
We recommend the use of CITROËN
towbars and their harnesses, which have
been tested and approved from the design
stage of your vehicle, and that the fitting of
this equipment is entrusted to a CITROËN
dealer .
If this equipment is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer , it is essential that it is fitted using
the electrical pre-equipment located at the
rear of the vehicle in accordance with the
manufacturer ’s instructions.
The operation of the sensors is deactivated
automatically when the pin of the trailer
cable is inserted in the towbar socket.
When the trailer cable pin is removed, the
sensors are re-activated.

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. The air density decreases with
altitude, so reducing the performance of
the engine. The maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10 % for each 1000 metres
of altitude. Refer to the “Technical data”
chapter for details of the weights and
towed loads applicable to your vehicle and
also to the administrative documents (V5
registration document, etc.).

Fuel
FILLING WITH FUEL
Low fuel level
When the minimum fuel tank
level is reached, this warning
light comes on. At this moment,
you have approximately 6 litres
remaining. Fill up without delay to avoid
running out of fuel.
The fuel tank must be filled with the engine
off.
- Open the fuel filler flap.
- Hold the cap with one hand.
- With the other hand, insert the key and turn it a third of a turn.
- Remove the cap.
FUEL CIRCUIT DEACTIVATED
In the event of a serious collision, a device
automatically cuts off the fuel supply to the
engine and the vehicle’s electrical supply.
This also automatically unlocks the doors
and switches on the interior lights.
A message is displayed on the instrument
panel (depending on model).
Turn the key to position STOP to avoid the
battery being discharged.

Check that there is no smell or leak of fuel
outside the vehicle.
When the fuel filler flap is open, a
safety system prevents sliding of the
side door.
A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle. This could
cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 45 litres.
After filling the fuel tank, lock the cap and
close the flap.
Reactivating
To continue driving, manually re-establish
the fuel supply and the electrical supply :
- with the ignition key in position STOP,
turn it to position RUNNING,
- move the direction indicators control stalk all the way upwards,
- put it to position “Stop”,
- move the direction indicators control stalk all the way downwards,
- put it to position “Stop“ again,
- move it all the way upwards again,
- put it to position “Stop” again,
- move it all the way downwards again,
- put it to position “Stop” again,
- turn the ignition key to position STOP.
