Blanking cover
When towing, you must remove the blanking
cover in the front bumper as well as the bonnet
seal if fitted.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop for this.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam
height of your vehicle.
For more information on Adjusting the
headlamps , refer to the corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal if a genuine CITROËN
towbar is used.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
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 exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
F

I
f the warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.

Roof bars
The design of your vehicle requires the use
of roof bars that are tested and approved by
CITROËN, for your safety and to avoid damage
to the roof and tailgate.
Regardless of the type of loading equipment
to be transported on the roof (bicycle carrier,
ski carrier...), it is imperative that you add
transverse roof bars. Any securing or lashing to
components other than the roof bars is strictly
prohibited.
Recommendations
F Distribute your load evenly, avoiding overloading on one side.
F

A
rrange the heaviest part of the load as
close as possible to the roof.
F

A
nchor the load securely and draw
attention to it if any part of it is
overhanging.
F

D
rive gently, as the vehicle will be more
liable to the effects of side winds (vehicle
stability may be altered).
F

R
emove the roof bars as soon as they are
no longer needed. Maximum load that can be distributed
on the roof bars (for a loading height
not exceeding 40 cm; except bicycle
carrier): 80 kg.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt your
speed to the profile of the road to avoid
damaging the roof bars and the fixings
on the roof.
Please refer to national legislation in
order to comply with the regulations
concerning the transportation of objects
which are longer than the vehicle.
