Towing a vehicle with an
automatic gearbox
With the engine switched off, the trans-
mission is no longer lubricated. It is
preferable to tow this type of vehicle on
a trailer or tow it with the front wheels
off the ground.
Under exceptional circumstances ,
you may tow the vehicle with all four
wheels on the ground, only going for -
ward, with the gear lever in the N posi-
tion, and for a distance not exceeding
30 miles (50 km).
If the lever is stuck in P,
even though you are de -
pressing the brake pedal,
the lever can be released
manually.
To do this, unclip the cover at the
base of the lever.
P r e s s s i m u l t a n e o u s l y o n t h e
button 5 on the gaiter and unlocking
button 6 located on the lever 7.
When storing the tools,
ensure they are securely re-
placed in the luggage com-
partment, in their original
position.
Do not leave the tools unsecured
inside the vehicle as they may come
loose under braking.

Accessories
ACCESSORIES
Use of transmission/
receiving devices
(telephones, CB
equipment etc.).
Telephones and CB equipment with
integrated aerials may cause inter -
ference to the original electronic
systems fitted to the vehicle: it is ad-
visable only to use equipment with
an external aerial.
Furthermore, we remind you of
the need to comply with the legis-
lation in force concerning the use
of such equipment.
Electrical and electronic
accessories
– C o n n e c t a c c e s s o r i e s
with a maximum power of
120 Watts only.
Fire hazard.
– No work may be carried out on
the vehicle’s electrical or radio
circuits, except by approved
dealers: an incorrectly connected
system may result in damage
being caused to the electrical
equipment and/or the compo -
nents connected to it;
– if the vehicle is fitted with any
aftermarket electrical equip -
ment, make sure that the unit
is correctly protected by a fuse.
Establish the rating and position
of this fuse.
Before fitting an electrical or
electronic device (particu -
larly for transmitters/receiv-
ers: frequency bandwidth,
power level, position of the aerial
etc.), ensure that it is compatible
with your vehicle.
Contact an approved dealer for this
information.
Fitting after-market
accessories
If you wish to install acces-
sories on the vehicle: con -
sult an approved dealer.
Also, to ensure the correct opera -
tion of your vehicle, and to avoid
any risk to your safety, we recom -
mend that you use only specific ac-
cessories, designed for your vehi -
cle, which are the only accessories
for which the manufacturer will pro-
vide a warranty.
If you are using an anti-theft
device, only attach it to the
brake pedal.

Weights/Towing weights
WEIGHTS (in kg)
The weights indicated for a basic vehicle without options: they vary depending on the your vehicle’s equipment.
Consult your approved Dealer.
Maximum permissible all-up weight (MMAC)
Maximum permissible all-up weight (MMTA)
Total train weight (MTR) Weights are indicated on the vehicle identification plate (refer to
the information on “Vehicle identification plates” in Section 6)
Braked Trailer Weight* obtained by calculating: MTR - MMAC
Unbraked Trailer Weight* 525
Permissible nose weight* 60
Maximum permissible load on roof 80 kg (including carrying device)
* Towing weight (towing a caravan, boat, etc.)
Towing is prohibited when the calculation MTR (Total train weight) - MMAC (Maximum permissible all-up weight) is zero\
.
– It is important to comply with the towing weights, governed by local legislation in each country and, in particular, laid down in
the Road Traffic Regulations. Contact an approved Dealer about any towing equipment.
– When towing, under no circumstances may the total train weight (vehicle + trailer) be exceeded . However the following is
permitted:
– the Maximum permissible weight at the rear may be exceeded by no more than 15%,
– the maximum permissible all-up weight may be exceeded by no more than 10% or 100 kg (whichever occu\
rs first).
In either case, the maximum speed of the towing assembly must not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) and the tyre pressure must
be increased by 0.2 bar (3 PSI).
– The engine output and climbing capability are reduced with altitude. We recommend that the maximum load be reduced by
10% at an altitude of 1,000 metres and by an additional 10% for each 1,0\
00 metres thereafter.
Weight transfer (except utility version)
If the Maximum Authorised Mass of the vehicle has not been reached, up to 300 kg can be transferred to the braked trailer,
within the limits of the Gross Train Weight.
