TOWING THE VEHICLE

Procedure for having your vehicle
towed or for towing another vehicle us-
ing a removable towing eye.
The towing eye is installed in the boot
under the fl oor.
To gain access to it:



open the boot,


raise the fl oor,


secure it by hooking its cord on the
hook on the rear parcel shelf sup-
port,


remove the towing eye from the
holder.



Access to the tools
General recommendations

Observe the legislation in force in your country.
Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is higher than that of the towed
vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of the towed vehicle and must have a
valid driving licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, always use an
approved towing bar; rope and straps are prohibited.
When towing a vehicle with the engine off, there is no longer any power
assistance for braking or steering.
In the following cases, you must always call on a professional recovery
service:


- vehicle broken down on a motorway or fast road,

- 4 wheel drive vehicle,

- when it is not possible to put the gearbox into neutral, unlock the steering,
or release the parking brake,

- towing with only two wheels on the ground,

- where there is no approved towing bar available...

sistance the next time the

Some characters in the
media information are not
displayed correctly while
playing. The audio system does not display some types of characters. Use standard characters to name tracks and
folders.
Playing of streaming fi les
does not start. The peripheral device connected does not support automatic play. Start the playback from the device.
The names of tracks and
the track length are not
displayed on the screen
when streaming audio. The Bluetooth profi le does not allow the transfer of this information.
The quality of reception
of the radio station
listened to gradually
deteriorates or the stored
stations do not function
(no sound, 87.5 Mhz is
displayed...). The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listened
to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the
vehicle is travelling. Activate the "RDS" function by means of the
short-cut menu to enable the system to check
whether there is a more powerful transmitter in the
geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block
reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate
a fault with the audio system.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going
through a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
I cannot fi nd some radio
stations in the list of
stations received. The station is not received or its name has changed in the list.
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name
(the title of the song for example).
The system interprets this information as the name of the station. The name of the radio
station changes.

Sound cut-outs of 1 to
2 seconds in radio mode. During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency
permitting better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is
too frequent and always on the same route.
The traffi c announcement
(TA) is displayed. I do
not receive any traffi c
information. The radio station does not broadcast traffi c information. Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffi c
information.
The stored stations are
not found (no sound,
87.5 MHz is displayed...). An incorrect waveband is selected. Press the BAND button to return to the waveband
on which the stations are stored.
