Towing a trailer
Cooling:
towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
Tyres:
check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identification
markings" section of chapter 9) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressures.
We recommend the use of original
CITROËN towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle and that
the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to a
CITROËN dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted using
the electrical pre-equipment installed at the
rear of the vehicle and in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions.
Good practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a steep
slope in high temperatures), the engine
automatically limits its power. In this
case, the automatic cutting off of the air
conditioning allows the engine power to be
recovered.
If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 7.
Brakes:
towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually.
Side wind:
sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed.
ABS:
the system only controls the vehicle,
not the trailer.
Rear parking sensors:
the system does not
operate while the vehicle is towing.

Equipment
ROOF BARS
To install the transverse roof bars, use the
fixings provided for this purpose. Refer to the "Dimensions" section
of chapter 9 for further information
regarding the length (L1 to L4) and the
height (H1 to H3) of the vehicle. Never exceed the maximum weight of the
vehicle when loaded (GVW).
OTHER ACCESSORIES
These accessories and parts, having been
tested and approved for reliability and
safety, are all adapted to your vehicle. A
wide recommended range and original parts
are offered.
Range of professional equipment Maximum useful load on the roof bars: 100 kg
distributed, regardless of the type of vehicle.
The roof bars can only be installed on the
H1 and H2 vehicles. Parts and Service technical information
publishes an accessories catalogue offering
various equipment and fittings, such as:
Roof bars for short, medium and long
wheelbase (load retainers for all models).
Foot board, loading roller, step.
Towbar, 7/13 pin, 7/7 pin, 13 pin towbar
harness: trailer towbar which must be fitted
by the CITROËN network.
Roof bars for the various heights, additional
roof bar.
Separation partitions, protective floor,
non-slip floor.

Having your vehicle towed
BEING TOWED
Without lifting (four wheels on the ground)
You must always use a towing bar.
From the rear
Hook the bar onto the rigid eye located
under the bumper.
From the front
The removable towing eye is located in the
box under the front passenger seat.
Unclip the cover using a flat tool.
Screw the removable towing eye in fully.
Place the gear lever in neutral. Failure to
observe this special condition may result in
damage to certain braking components and
the absence of braking assistance when the
engine is re-started.
With lifting(2 wheels only on the ground)
It is preferable to lift the vehicle using
professional lifting equipment.
When being towed with the engine
off, there is no braking or steering
assistance.
