a towbar (vehicle fitted with a towbar
installed
  in   line   with   the   manufacturer's  
r

ecommendations).In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered with
mud,
  ice   or   snow.   When   reverse   gear   is

We recommend the use of genuine CITROËN towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved
from
  the   design   stage   of   your   vehicle,  
a

nd   that   the   fitting   of   the   towbar   is  
e

ntrusted to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
 w

orkshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a
CITROËN dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's
 i

nstructions.
Your
 
vehicle   is   primarily   designed   for  
t

ransporting   people   and   luggage,   but   it   may  
a

lso
 
be   used   for   towing   a   trailer. Driving   with   a   trailer   places   greater  
d

emands   on   the   towing   vehicle   and   the  
d

river   must   take   particular   care.
For more information on Driving
advice ,   particularly   when   towing,   refer  
t

o   the   corresponding   section.

the towed loads which apply to your
vehicle)   refer   to   the   corresponding  
s

ection.

eight,   indicated   on   the   registration  
c

ertificate or in the technical
specification
