RAcING towbar
Your vehicle cannot be fitted with a
towbar.  The   space   occupied   by   the  
s

port   diffuser   prevents   this.
Ty r e s
F Check  the   tyre   pressures   of   the   towing  v
ehicle   and   of   the   trailer,   observing   the  
re

commended
 p
ressures.
cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature   of   the   coolant.
As
  the   fan   is   electrically   controlled,   its   cooling  
c

apacity   is   not   dependent   on   the   engine   speed.
F
 
T
o   lower   the   engine   speed,   reduce   your  
s

peed.
The
  maximum   towed   load   on   a   long   incline  
d

epends   on   the   gradient   and   the   ambient  
t

emperature.
In
  all   cases,   keep   a   check   on   the   coolant  
t

emperature.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o   avoid   overheating   of   the   brakes   on   a   long  
m

ountain   type   of   descent,   the   use   of   engine  
b

raking   is   recommended.
Lighting
F Check   the   electrical   lighting   and   signalling  o
n   the   trailer.
The
  rear   parking   sensors   will   be  
d

eactivated   automatically   if   a   genuine  
C

ITROËN   towbar   is   used.

Manual gearbox
Automatic gearboxBrake pads
Brake wear depends on the style o
f   driving,   particularly   in   the   case o

f vehicles used in town, over short
distances.
  It   may   be   necessary   to   have
 t

he   condition   of   the   brakes   checked,
 e

ven   between   vehicle   services.
The
 
gearbox
 
does
 
not
 
require
 
any
 m
aintenance
 
(no
 
oil
 
change).
Refer

In
  order   to   optimise   the   operation   of  
u
