Towing with the RACIng version
Your vehicle cannot be fitted with a
towbar.
  The   space   occupied   by   the  
s

port   diffuser   prevents   this.
Side wind
F Take  into   account   the   increased   sensitivity  t
o   side   wind.
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. F
 
I
f   the   warning   lamp   and   the  
S

TOP
 
warning   lamp   come   on,  
s

top the vehicle and switch off
the
  engine   as   soon   as   possible.
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.
Ty r e s
F Check   the   tyre   pressures   of   the   towing  v
ehicle   and   of   the   trailer,   observing   the  
re

commended
 p
ressures.
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.

owing   using   a   lightly   loaded   towing   vehicle   may   have   an   adverse   effect   on   its   road   holding.
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  
e

ach   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,
