F

O
n each side in row 2, insert the fixings in
the floor anchorages (as shown above).
Stowing rings
Use the stowing rings on the boot's floor to
secure the net, your loads or luggage.
As a safety measure in the event of
sudden braking, it is recommended that
heavy objects are placed as far for ward in
the vehicle as possible.
It is recommended that the load be
secured firmly using the stowing rings on
t h e f l o o r.

heck that the table is secured on the
runner. If this is not the case, move the
assembly slightly to the next notch on the

You can move the table in both the open
and stowed position. However, to ensure
safety, it is advised that you handle the
assembly in the stowed position.
To ensure that the table runs smoothly,
ensure that no objects are blocking the
space used by the runner on the floor.
Before manoeuvring the table, check that
there is nothing on the table.Unfolding

Before stowing the table tops, check that
they are clear. Before tipping the assembly
down, check that the two table tops have
clicked home in the low position and that
there is nothing in the cup holder area
(such as a can or pen).

To move the table or an individual seat
for wards or backwards, make sure that
the seat's backrest is upright and the table
is stowed.When stowing the table trays, never put
your hand in the sliding area, you may get
your fingers trapped. Use the dedicated
handle.
Never place hot objects such as
saucepans or cooking pans on the table,
as you risk damaging its sur face (risk of
f i r e). With the table open, each tray can bear
a maximum load of 10
kg. If you do not
adhere to the maximum load, the table
may be partially or completely damaged.
Never raise the table when it is between
individual seats; this risks damaging the
table tops.
Incorrect use of the table could cause
serious injury.
Never use the table in the open or
unfolded position while the vehicle is
moving. Any objects on the table will turn
into projectiles if the vehicle has to brake
suddenly.
Ensure that the table is correctly stowed in
the low position before moving off.
Never use the table tops as seats or lean
on them.
A label on the table reminds you of of this.

Advice
In order for these systems to be fully effective,
follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
T
o ensure that the air is distributed evenly,
keep the external air intake grilles at the
base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the
vents, the air outlets and the air extractor
located in the rear free from obstructions.
F
D

o not cover the sunshine sensor, located
at the top of the windscreen; this is used
for regulation of the air conditioning
system.
F
O

perate the air conditioning system for
at least 5
to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in per fect working order.
F
T

o prevent misting or deteriorating air
quality inside the passenger compartment,
you should not deactivate the system for
too long and avoid extended operation of
the air recycling system when driving.
F
E

nsure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the
filter elements replaced regularly.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment filter. Thanks to
its special active additive, it contributes
to the purification of the air breathed by
the occupants and the cleanliness of the
passenger compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits). If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very
high, first ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
The condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge of
water under the vehicle which is per fectly
normal.
Stop & Star t
The heating and air conditioning systems
only work when the engine is running.
To maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment, you can
temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system.
For more information on Stop & Star t ,
refer to the corresponding section.
F T
o ensure correct operation of the air
conditioning system, you are also advised
to have it checked regularly according
to the Maintenance and Warranty Guide
recommendations.
F
I

f the system does not produce cold air,
switch it off and contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep
gradient in high temperatures, switching off the
air conditioning increases the available engine
power and so improves the towing ability.
Vents
To close the vent, move the control outwards.
You may feel slight resistance.

178
Manoeuvre cautiously, at low
speed
The dimensions of your vehicle differ from
those of a light vehicle, in width, in height, as
well as in length, and some obstacles will be
more difficult to notice.
Manoeuvre slowly.
Before turning, check that there are no
obstacles at mid-height along the sides.
Before reversing, check that there are no
obstacles, particularly at high level behind the
vehicle.
Be aware of the external dimensions, if ladders
are fitted.
Load the vehicle correctly
If your vehicle is fitted with a drop-side back,
the height and width of the load must remain
within the overall dimensions of the vehicle.
Drive the vehicle in a prudent
and efficient way
Take corners gently.
Anticipate the need to brake as the stopping
distance is increased, particularly on wet or icy
roads.
Be aware of the effect of side winds on the
vehicle.
Effective eco-driving saves fuel; accelerate
progressively, anticipate the need to slow down
and adapt your speed to suit the situation.
Indicate changes of direction well in advance
so that you are seen by other road users.
Take care
The tyres must be inflated to at least the
pressures indicated on the label, even over-
inflated by 0.2 to 0.3 bar for long journeys.
With a load carried, the vehicle must remain
within the maximum authorised weight, the
Gross Vehicle Weight.
To avoid upsetting the balance of the vehicle,
the load should be centred and the heaviest
part placed on the floor in front of the rear
wheels.
It is inadvisable to place heavy loads on a roof
rack.
Loading also implies adherence to the
maximum load of the roof bar anchor points.
Adhere to the maximum permissible weight,
according to CITROËN dealer specifications.
Loads must be securely lashed down.
A load that is not properly secured inside the
vehicle may affect vehicle handling and create
a risk of accident.
In case of towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
requires extra care from the driver.
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. The maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10% for every
1,000
metres of altitude.
Please respect the maximum towable
weights.
F

T
ake into account the increased sensitivity
to wind.

Driving

179
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 towable load on an incline
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
F

I
f this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
New vehicle
Do not pull a trailer before having driven at
least around 600
miles (1,000 kilometres).
When the exterior temperature is high,
leaving the engine running for 1
to
2
minutes after stopping the vehicle to
allow it to cool is recommended.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
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 Headlamp
beam height adjustment , 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.
