- a ring B, behind the seat and identified by
a marking, referred to as the TOP TETHER
for fixing the upper strap.
This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in your
vehicle.
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two
latches which are secured on the two rings A .
Some seats also have an upper strap , known
as the Top Tether, which is attached to ring B .
To secure the child seat to the TOP TETHER :
-

r
emove and stow the head restraint before
installing the child seat on the seat (refit it
once the child seat has been removed),
-

r
aise the carpet cover to expose the TOP
TETHER,
-

p
ass the upper strap of the child seat behind
the seat backrest, between the apertures
for the head restraint rods, When fitting an ISOFIX child seat to the
left-hand rear seat, before fitting the
seat, first move the centre rear seat belt
towards the middle of the vehicle, so
as to avoid the seat inter fering with the
operation of the seat belt.
The incorrect installation of a child seat in
a vehicle compromises the protection of
the child in the event of an accident.
Strictly obser ve the fitting instructions
provided with the child seat.
For information on the possibilities for
installing ISOFIX child seats in your
vehicle, refer to the summary table.
Also consult the installation notes of the

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.
For more information on the Technical
data of your vehicle and particularly on
towable loads, refer to the corresponding
section.
If the exterior temperature is high, it is
recommended that the engine be allowed
to idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle
comes to a stop, to facilitate its cooling.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to wind.
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 this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
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
adjustment , refer to the corresponding
section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid
the audible signal if a genuine DS
AUTOMOBILES towbar is used.

During use
Never release the locking system with a
trailer or load carrier on the towball.
Never exceed the gross train weight
(GTW) for the vehicle.
Before setting off, check the adjustment of
the headlamp beam height.
For more information on adjusting the
headlamp beam height, refer to the
corresponding section.
After use
For journeys made without a trailer or
load carrier, the trailer socket must be
folded away, the towball removed and the
protective plug inserted in the carrier. This
measure applies particularly if the towball
could hinder visibility of the number plate
or lighting.Fitting the towball
F Remove the protective plug from the carrier and check the condition of the fixing system.
If necessary, clean the carrier with a brush
or a clean cloth.
F
