ALArM
If your vehicle is fitted with an anti-theft
alarm.
This provides:
-

detectors on the openings (doors,
bonnet) and on the electrical power
supply,
-

anti-tilt protection*.

First ensure that all of the doors and bonnet
are closed correctly.
*
Depending on engine.
Good practice
to deactivate the siren quickly following
a false alarm:
-

switch on the ignition, recognition of the

key's code will switch off the alarm,
-

press the unlocking button (cab and key)

on the remote control.
To avoid setting the alarm, when washing
the vehicle for example, lock the vehicle
using the key.
Unlocking the vehicle using the remote
control deactivates the siren automatically.
The alarm is set by pressing this
padlock, the protection is active
after a few seconds.
While the alarm is monitoring,
any intrusion triggers the siren for
approximately 30 seconds, accompanied by
illumination of the direction indicators.
The alarm then returns to
monitoring mode but the
triggering event is stored and is
indicated by illumination of the
electronic immobiliser warning lamp for about
10

seconds when the ignition is switched on.
The alarm is also triggered following an
electrical supply cut-off, when the supply is
restored.

Practical information

tOWInG A tr AILE r...
The type-approved towable weights are
entered in your vehicle's registration
certificate, as well as on the manufacturer's
VIN plate. These weights are also given in sales
brochures.
You will then have information on your
vehicle's ability to tow a trailer, a caravan,
a
boat...
Refer to the "Technical data - Vehicle
identification" section. For the maximum unbraked trailer
weight and the recommended nose
weight, refer to the "Technical data -
Weights" section.

driving advice
distribution of loads: distribute the load in
the trailer so that the heaviest objects are as
close as possible to the axle and the nose
weight is close to the maximum authorised
without, however, exceeding it.
c

ooling: towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
tyres:

check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing
the recommended pressures.
Fitting a towbar
We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle and that
the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to
a
CITROËN dealer.
These genuine towbars are compatible with
the operation of the rear parking sensors
and the reversing camera, if fitted to your
vehicle.
If this equipment is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer, it must be fitted in line with the
manufacturer's instructions.
Good practice
If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
Refer to the "Checks - Levels and
checks" section.
Brakes: towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually. Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed. ABS: the system only controls the vehicle,
not the trailer.
r

ear parking sensors: the system is
deactivated while the vehicle is towing with a
genuine CITROËN towbar fitted.
Refer to the "Technical data -
Identification markings" section.
