PRACTICAL INFORMATION
ROOF BARS
For your safety and to avoid damage
to the roof and tailgate, the design of
your vehicle requires the use of roof
bars and roof boxes that are tested
and approved by CITROËN.
Regardless of the type of load car-
rier to be mounted on the roof (roof
box, bicycle carrier, ski carrier...),
you must fi t transverse roof bars.
Recommendations
)
Distribute the load evenly, avoid-
ing overloading on one side.
)
Arrange the heaviest part of the
load as close as possible to the
roof.
)
Anchor the load securely and fi t
a warning fl ag part of it is over-
hanging.
)
Drive gently, as the vehicle will
be more liable to the effects of
side winds (vehicle stability may
be altered).
)
Remove the roof bars as soon
as they are no longer needed.
Bicycle carrier
Do not attach a strap-fi tting bicycle car-
rier to the following vehicle versions:
- C4 Picasso 5-seater (all versions);
- C4 Picasso 7-seater version with
opening rear screen.
Maximum load, distributed
over the roof bars (for a loading
height not exceeding 40 cm,
except bicycle carrier): 80 kg.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt
your speed to the profi le of the road
to avoid damaging the roof bars
and the fi xings on the roof.
Please refer to national legislation
in order to comply with the regula-
tions concerning the transport of
objects which are longer than the
vehicle.
