2019 CITROEN RELAY tyre specification

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
With a load, the vehicle must remain within the
m aximum 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.
Drive the vehicle in a prudent
a nd 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.
In case of towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
d emands 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.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to wind.
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.

Under-inflation detection
The tyre under-inflation detection system
is a driving aid which does not replace the
need for vigilance on the part of the driver.This system does not relieve you of
the monthly check of the tyre inflation
pressures (including the spare) and before
a


long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
handling, extends braking distances and
causes premature tyre wear, particularly
in adverse conditions (heavy loads, high
speeds, long journeys).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressure specifications for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
Tyre pressures should be checked when
the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1 hour or after a journey of less than
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.
For more information on Identification
markings , including in particular the tyre
pressure label, refer to the corresponding
section. The tyre pressure measurement unit can be
configured with the MODE
button: in the "Tyre
pressure measurement" menu, select "psi/bar/
k Pa".
For more information on Vehicle
configuration , refer to the corresponding
section.
Under-inflation warning
This warning is indicated by
continuous illumination of this lamp,
an audible signal and, depending on
the equipment installed, a message
displayed on the screen.
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system continuously monitors the
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the
vehicle is moving.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of
each tyre (except the spare wheel).
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a

drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres. In the event of a
problem with one of the tyres,
depending on equipment the symbol or the
message appears to identify it.

hen using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep the
lance directed towards the lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to
damage their protective coating and
seals.
Changing a


bulb must only be done with
the ignition off and after the headlamp has
been switched off for several minutes –
Risk of serious burns!
F

D
o not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers, use a
lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
headlamp.
Always replace a
failed bulb with a new
bulb with the same type and specification.
