2015 CITROEN DS3 CABRIO parking brake

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.

Practical information

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
 d

istances.   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
 
to
 
the
 
maintenance
 
and
 
w

arranty
 
guide
 
for
 
the

this
 
component.
Only
  use   products   recommended   by  
C

ITROËN   or   products   of   equivalent  
q

uality
 an
d
 sp
ecification.
In
  order   to   optimise   the   operation   of  
u

nits   as   important   as   those   in   the  
b

raking   system,   CITROËN   selects   and  
o

ffers   very   specific   products.
The
 
gearbox
 
does
 
not
 
require
 
any
 
m

aintenance
 
(no
 
oil
 
change).
Refer
 
to
 
the

guide
 
for
 
details
 
of
 
the
 
level
 
c

hecking
 
interval
 
for
 
this
 
component.
Electronic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any m aintenance   (no   oil   change).
Refer
  to   the   maintenance   and  
w

arranty   guide   for   details   of   the  
c

hecking   interval   for   this   component. For
  information   on   checking   brake  
d

isc   wear,   contact   a   CITROËN   dealer  
o

Brake disc wearParking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of e
ffectiveness   of   this   system   is  
n

oticed,   the   parking   brake   must   be  
c

hecked,   even   between   two   services.
Unless
 
there
 
is
 
a
 
leak
 
in
 
the
 
circuit,
 
a
 
drop
 
in
 
t

he
 
brake
 
fluid
 
level
 
indicates
 
that
 
the
 
brake
 
p

ads
 
are
 
worn. Checking
 
this   system   must   be   done   by   a  
C

ITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
