The engine characteristics (capacity,

2 emissions...) for your vehicle are given in the registration
document.
These characteristics correspond
to the values type-approved on a
test
bed,
under
conditions defined
in European legislation (
d irective
1999/99/EC).
For
more
information, refer to the
manufacturer's
website or sales

The weights and towable loads for your
vehicle can be found on the vehicle's
registration
certificate.
These
values, expressed in kg, are
laos
present on the manufacturer's
plate
or label.
The
kerb weight is equal to the weight
without
load + driver (75 kg) + fuel tank
filled
to 90%.
The GTW and towed load values
indicated
are valid up to a maximum
altitude
of 1000 metres.
The
value of
the
towed load mentioned must be
reduced by 10 % for each additional
1000
metres.
With
load transfer, the braked trailer
weight can be increased, on condition
that
the equivalent of this load is
removed
from the vehicle so that the
GTW
is not exceeded. High
ambient temperatures
may
result in a reduction in the
performance
of the vehicle in
order
to protect the engine. When the
ambient
temperature is higher than
37
°C, limit the towed weight.
Towing with a lightly loaded
vehicle can adversely affect road
holding.
Towing
a trailer increases braking
distances.
When
towing, the maximum permitted
speed
is reduced (comply with the
legislation
in force in the country).
The
recommended nose weight is the downward force on the towball
(removable
with or without tools).
GVW: gross vehicle weight, the
maximum
authorised weight.
G
t W: gross train weight, the maximum
weight
for vehicle plus trailer.
Refer
to chapter 9, "Identification
markings"
section.
In
each country, it is imperative that
the towed loads authorised by local
legislation
are complied with.
T
o find
out your vehicle's towing capacities
and its gross train weight, consult a
CITROËN
dealer.
