Before each use
Check that the towball is correctly locked by
verifying the following points:
-
t
he green mark on the locking wheel is in line
with the green mark on the towball,
-

t
he locking wheel is in contact with the towball,
-

t
he security lock is locked and the key
removed; the locking wheel can no longer be
operated,
-

t
he towball must not be able to move in its
carrier; test by trying to shake it with your hand.
During use
Never release the locking system with
a trailer or load carrier on the towball.
Never exceed the maximum authorised
weight for the vehicle (the Gross Vehicle
Weight – GV W), the trailer, or the sum of
the two (the Gross Train Weight – GTW).
Following use
When travelling without a trailer or load on
a towbar-mounted carrier, the towball must be
removed and the protective plug inserted in
the carrier. This measure applies particularly
where the towball might obscure visibility of the
number plate or its lighting.

To w i n g
General recommendations
Obser ve the legislation in force in your
c o u nt r y.
Ensure that the weight of the towing
vehicle is higher than that of the towed
vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of
the towed vehicle and must have a valid
driving licence.
When towing a
vehicle with all four wheels
on the ground, always use an approved
towbar; rope and straps are prohibited.
The towing vehicle must move off gently.
When the vehicle is towed with its engine
off, there is no longer braking and steering
assistance.
In the following cases, you must always
call on a
professional recovery ser vice:
-

v
ehicle broken down on a motor way or
main road,
-
f

our-wheel drive vehicle,
-

w
hen it is not possible to put the
gearbox into neutral, unlock the
steering, or release the parking brake,
-

t
owing with only two wheels on the
ground,
-

w
here there is no approved towbar
available.
The charging operation must be carried
out in a

ventilated area away from naked
flames or any possible sources of sparks
to eliminate the risk of explosion and fire.
Do not try to charge a

frozen battery: it
must first be thawed out to avoid the risk
of explosion. If the battery has frozen,
before charging it have it checked by
a

specialist who will verify that the internal
components have not been damaged and
that the case is not cracked, which could
mean that there is a

risk of a

leak of toxic
and corrosive acid.
Proceed with a

slow charge at low current
for a

maximum of about 24

hours to avoid
damaging the battery.
Charging the battery using
a battery charger
F Go to the battery located in the front left
f l o o r.
F

D
isconnect the battery.
F

F
ollow the instructions for use provided by
the manufacturer of the charger.
F

R
econnect starting with the negative (-)
terminal.
F

C
heck the condition of the terminals and
clamps. If they are covered with sulphate
(whitish or greenish deposits), disconnect
them and clean them all.
After refitting of the battery by a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop, the Stop
& Start system will only be active after
a


continuous period of immobilisation
of the vehicle, a period which depends
on the climatic conditions and the state
of charge of the battery (up to about
8


h o u r s).
The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a
12 V lead-acid battery with
special technology and specification;
the involvement of a
CITROËN dealer or
a
qualified workshop is essential when
replacing or disconnecting the battery.

Engine technical data and
towed loads
Engines
The engine characteristics are given in the
vehicle's registration document, as well as in
sales brochures.The maximum power corresponds to the
value type-approved on a
test bed, under
conditions defined in European legislation
(Directive 1999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Weights and towed loads
The maximum weights and towed loads for
your vehicle are given in the registration
document, as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also given on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
For more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop. The GTW and towed load values indicated are
valid up to a
maximum altitude of 1,000 metres.
The towed load value must be reduced by 10%
for each additional 1,000 metres of altitude.
The maximum authorised nose weight
corresponds to the weight permitted on the
towbar (can be dismantled with or without
a

tool).
GT W: Gross train weight.
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, limit
the towed load.
Towing with a towing vehicle which is only
slightly laden may negatively affect its
handling.
Towing a
trailer increases the braking
distance.
When towing, never exceed the speed
of 62
mph (100 km/h) (obser ve the local
legislation in force). 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.
