Driving advice
Distribution of loads
F distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine per formance. Above
1
000 metres, the maximum towing load must
be reduced by 10
% of the GTW and so on for
every 1
000 metres of altitude.
Refer to the "Technical
d
a
ta" section for details
of the weights and towing loads which apply to
your vehicle.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F

T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towing load on a long slope
depends on the gradient and the outside
temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
F

I
f this message is displayed, stop your
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the lighting and signalling on the t r a i l e r.
If the message flashes slowly, wait for the
engine to cool before topping up the level, if
necessary.
If the message flashes rapidly, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.

Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
The petrol engines are per fectly compatible
with E10 type petrol biofuels (containing 10 %
ethanol), conforming to European standards
EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol)
are reserved exclusively for vehicles marketed
for the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex
vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must
comply with European standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed
to run on fuels containing up to 100 % ethanol
(E100 type).
Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are per fectly compatible
with biofuels which conform to current and
future European standards (
di
esel fuel
which complies with standard EN 590 mixed
with a biofuel which complies with standard
EN
14214) available at the pumps (containing
up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain Diesel
engines; however, this use is subject to strict
application of the special servicing conditions.
Contact a CITR
oËn

dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system).
1.6 litre petrol engines, even though they have
been designed to operate on 95 RON petrol,
can accept 90 RON petrol without engine
adjustments, but with a slight deterioration in
performance.
2.0 litre petrol engines can accept 90 RON or
higher petrol.

Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to have
the condition of the brakes checked,
even between vehicle services.
Brake pads
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITRoËn dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Brake disc wear Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must be
checked, even between two services.
Only use products recommended by
CITR
oËn

or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
units as important as those in the
braking system, CITROËN selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness,
or in wintry conditions, ice can form
on the brake discs and pads: braking
efficiency may be reduced. Make light
brake applications to dry and defrost
the brakes.
Checking this system must be done by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.

Petrol weights and towed loads (kg)
The values for maximum towed weights type
approved according to the sales zone (see the
tables on the following pages).
The exact values are given in your vehicle's
registration document as well as on the
manufacturer's plate.
They are also mentioned in sales brochures.
For more details, contact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.The kerb weight is equal to the unladen
weight
+ driver (75 kg).The GTW and towed load values indicated are
valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres;
the towed load mentioned must be reduced
by 10 % for each additional 1 000 metres of
altitude.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed
60 mph (100 km/h) (comply with the legislation
in force in your country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a
reduction in the per formance of the vehicle to
protect the engine; if the ambient temperature
is above 37 °C, limit the towed load.
The weight of the braked trailer can be
increased, within the GTW limit, if the
GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced
by an equal amount. Please note that
towing using a lightly loaded towing
vehicle may have an adverse effect
on its road holding
.
