Towing a trailer
We recommend the use of genuineCITROËN towbars and their harnessesthat have been tested and approved from the design stage of your vehicle, and that the fitting of the towbar is entrusted to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.If the towbar is not fitted by a CITROËNdealer, it is imperative that it is fitted in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's instructions. T
owbar suitable for the attachment of a trailer
with additional lighting and signalling.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transpor ting people and luggage, but it may
also be used for towing a trailer.
When not towing a trailer, remove thequickly-detachable tow ball beforedriving, so as to avoid masking the central rear lamp.
Driving with a trailer places greater demands on the towing vehicle and the driver must take par ticular care.

211Practical information

Driving advice


Distribution of loads
)Distribute the load in the trailer so that theheaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load must
be reduced b
y 10 % for every 1 000 metres of altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section for detailsof the weights and towed loads which apply to your vehicle.


Side wind
)Take into account the increased sensitivity
to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependent on the engine speed. )
To lower the engine speed, reduce your speed. The maximum towed load on a long inclinedepends on the gradient and the ambient
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
) If the warning lamp and theSTOPwarning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.



Braking

To w i ng a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a long
mountain type of descent, the use of engine
braking is recommended.


Tyres
)
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, obser ving the
recommended pressures.



Lighting
)
Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer.

The rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically if a genuineCITROËN towbar is used.

233Technical data

* The kerb weight is equal to the unladen weight + driver (75 kg).

**
The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, if the GV W 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 b
y 10 % for each additional 1 000 metres of altitude.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 mph (10 0 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.
