*  The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, if the GVW of the towing vehicle is reduced by an 
equal amount; warning, towing using a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.  
  The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned 
must be reduced by 10 % for each additional 1 000 metres of altitude. 
  The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) (comply with the legislation in force in your country). 
  High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the performance of the vehicle to protect the engine; if the ambient 
temperature is above 37 °C, limit the towed load.

TECHNICAL DATA
IDENTIFICATION MARKINGS 
  Various visible markings for the identifi -
cation and tracking of your vehicle.  
  If the tyre pressures are too low, 
this increases fuel consumption.  
    The tyre pressures must be 
checked when the tyres are cold, 
at least once a month.     
 
 
A. 
  Vehicle Identifi cation  Number 
(VIN) 
 
 under the bonnet. 
 
 
  This number is engraved on the 
bodywork near the damper support.  
  To gain access to it, raise the plastic 
cover.    
B. 
  VIN 
 
 on the windscreen lower 
crossmember. 
 
 
  This number is indicated on a self-
adhesive label which is visible 
through the windscreen. 
   
C. 
  Manufacturer's plate. 
 
 
  This plate is riveted onto the engine 
mounting.  
or 
   
D. 
  Manufacturer's label. 
 
 
  This number is indicated on a self-
destroying label affi xed to the right 
hand centre pillar.    This plate/label also indicates the 
kerb weight, the gross vehicle 
weight (GVW) and the gross train 
weight (GTW). 
   
E. 
  Tyre/paint label. 
 
 
  This label is affi xed to the front pillar, 
on the driver's side.  
  It bears the following information: 
   
 
-   the tyre infl ation pressures with and 
without load, 
   
-   the wheel rim and tyre sizes, 
   
-   the brands of tyre recommended by 
the manufacturer, 
   
-  the infl ation pressure of the spare 
wheel, 
   
-   the paint colour code.
