AT A GLANCE
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in
the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance
(roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in
preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer
tyres.
Observe the recommendations on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the
label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or
caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air
filter, cabin filter...) and observe the schedule of operations in the
maintenance and warranty guide.
When refuelling, do not continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the nozzle
to avoid any overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle
down to a consistent average.

Transport solutions
Grasp the tow ball 4 firmly with one hand;
with the other hand, pull and turn the locking
wheel 5 clockwise as far as it will go; do not
release the locking wheel.
Maintenance
Correct operation is only possible if the tow ball
and its carrier remain clean.
Before cleaning the vehicle with a high pressure
jet wash, the tow ball must be removed and the
blanking plug inserted in the carrier.
Apply the label provided to a clearly
visible area, close to the carrier or in
the boot.
For any work on the towbar, got to a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Refit the protective blanking plug to the
carrier.
Carefully stow the tow ball in its bag away
from knocks and dirt.
Extract the tow ball from the bottom of its
carrier 1 .
Release the locking wheel; this automatically
stops in the unlocked position (position B ).
