Observe the legislation in force in your country.
Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is higher than that of the towed vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of the towed vehicle and must have a valid driving licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, always use an approved towing
arm; rope and straps are prohibited.
The towing vehicle must move off gently.
When towing a vehicle with the engine off, there is no longer any power assistance for
braking or steering.

Towing a trailer, ...
Driving advice
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 towed load on a long incline
depends on the gradient and the ambient
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.
F If the warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
Towbar suitable for the attachment of a trailer or installation of a bicycle carrier, with additional lighting and signalling.
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 performance. Above
1
000 metres, the maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10
% for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.
We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved
from the design stage of your vehicle,
and that the fitting of the towbar is
entrusted to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer, it is imperative that it is
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Driving with a trailer places greater demands
on the towing vehicle and the driver must take
particular care. Your vehicle is primarily designed for transporting people and luggage, but it may also be used for towing a trailer.
Refer to the "Technical data" section for details
of the weights and towed loads which apply to
your vehicle.

CD, MP3 CD / USB player
The audio equipment will only play audio files with ".wma, .aac, .flac,
.ogg and .mp3" file extensions and with a bit rate of between 32 Kbps
and 320 Kbps.
It also supports VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other type of file (.mp4, .m3u...) can be played.
WMA files must be of the standard wma 9 type.
The sampling rates supported are greater than 32 KHz.
It is advisable to restrict file names to 20 characters, without using of
special characters (e.g.: " " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing and displaying
problems.
In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recording
it is preferable to select the ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or Joliet standard.
If the disc is recorded in another format (udf,
...), it may not be played
correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording standard is always used
for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible (4x maximum)
for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is
recommended. Information and advice
The system supports USB mass storage or iPod
devices via the USB port (suitable cable not supplied).
If a partitioned USB memory key is connected to the
system, only the first partition is recognised.
Control of the peripheral device is with the audio
system controls.
The number of tracks is limited to 2000 maximum,
999
tracks per folder.
If the current consumption at the USB port exceeds
500 mA, the system goes into protection mode and
deactivates the port.
Other peripherals, not recognised on connection, must
be connected to the auxiliary socket using a Jack cable
(not supplied).
Use only USB memory sticks formatted FAT32 (File Allocation Table).
The system does not support the operation of an Apple
® player and a
USB memory stick connected at the same time.
It is recommended that official Apple
® USB cables are used to ensure
correct operation.

Insert the CD in the player, insert the USB
memory stick in the USB player or connect the
USB peripheral to the USB port using a suitable
cable (not supplied).
The system builds playlists (in temporary
memory), an operation which can take from
a few seconds to several minutes at the first
connection.
Reduce the number of non-music files and the
number of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition
is switched off or connection of a USB memory
stick. However, the system memorises these
lists and if they are not modified, the loading
time will be shorter.
Play starts automatically after a period which
depends on the capacity of the USB memory
stick.Selection of source
The SOURCE button on the steering mounted controls allows a
direct change to the next media source. "CD / CD MP3"
