Practical information
Before each use
Check that the towball is correctly locked,
verifying the follow points:
– the green mark on the wheel is in line with
the green mark on the towball,
– the wheel is in contact with the towball,
– the key lock is closed and the key removed;
the wheel can no longer be operated,
– the towball must not be able to move in its
carrier; test by shaking 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 - GVW), 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.
wheels, check that no part of the chain or its
fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.
Towing a trailer
The type-approved towable weights are entered
in your vehicle's registration certificate, as well
as on the manufacturer's plate.
For more information on the Technical
characteristics of the vehicle and
particularly on weights and towable loads,
refer to the corresponding section.
You will then have information on your vehicle's
ability to tow a trailer, a caravan, a boat, etc.
These values are also given in the sales
brochures.
We recommend using genuine CITROËN
towbars and their harnesses that have
been tested and approved from the design
stage of your vehicle, and having a CITROËN
dealer fit the towbar.
These genuine towbars are compatible with
the operation of the rear parking sensors and
the reversing camera, if your vehicle is so
equipped.
If the towbar is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer, it must still be fitted in accordance with
the vehicle manufacturer's instructions.
