Driving
6In the following cases, deactivating the system
via the vehicle's configuration menu is advised:
– towing a trailer,
– carrying long objects on roof bars or roof rack,
– with snow chains fitted,
– before using an automatic car wash, with the
engine running,
– before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in
a workshop,
– towed vehicle, engine running,
– following an impact to the windscreen close to
the detection camera.
It is automatically deactivated after
detection of a fault with the brake pedal
switch or with at least two brake lamps.
After an impact, the function automatically stops operating. Contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop to
have the system checked.
It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
The driver must always stay in control of their
vehicle and be prepared to react at any time
to avoid an accident.
Cases of non-detection by the system:
– Pedestrians, cyclists, animals, objects on the
road.
– Vehicles crossing your lane.
– Vehicles driving in the opposite direction.
Pay particular attention:
– When narrow vehicles (motorcycles)
are present and/or there are vehicles
staggered across the traffic lane.
– When entering a tunnel or crossing a
bridge.
When the driver must suspend the system:
– Vehicles in a tight bend.
– When approaching a roundabout.
– When a vehicle cuts in sharply between your
vehicle and the one in front.
Collision Risk Alert
It warns the driver that their vehicle is at risk of
collision with the vehicle in front.
Modifying the alert trigger threshold
This trigger threshold determines the sensitivity
with which the function warns of the risk of
collision.
The threshold is set via the vehicle configuration menu.
► Select one of the three pre-defined
thresholds:
– "Near ".
– "Normal".
– "Distant".
The last threshold selected is memorised when
the ignition is switched off.
Operation
Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert threshold
chosen by the driver, several different levels
of alert may be triggered and displayed in the
instrument panel.
They take account of the vehicle dynamics, the
speed of your vehicle and the one in front, the
environmental conditions and the operation of
the vehicle (cornering, actions on the pedals,
etc.) to trigger the alert at the best moment.
Level 1 (orange): visual alert only,
signalling that the vehicle in front is very
close.

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.

Fitting the towball
► Below the rear bumper, remove the protective
plug from the carrier.
► Insert the end of towball 4 into carrier 1 and
push it upwards; the locking will take place
automatically.
The wheel 5 turns a quarter of a turn anti-
clockwise; take care to keep your hands clear.
► Check that the mechanism has correctly
locked into place (position A).
► Close lock 6 using the key. ►
Always remove the key. The key cannot be
removed when the lock is open.
► Clip the cap onto the lock.
► Remove the protective cover from the
towball.
► Attach the trailer to the towball.
► Attach the cable on the trailer to safety eye 3
on the carrier.
► Connect the trailer plug to connection
socket 2 on the carrier.
Removing the towball
► Disconnect the trailer plug from the
connection socket 2 on the carrier.
► Detach the cable on the trailer from the safety
eye 3 on the carrier.
► Detach the trailer from the towball.
► Refit the protective cover to the towball.
► Remove the cap from the lock and press it
onto the head of the key.
► Insert the key into lock 6.

Technical data
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 weights and towed loads relating to
the vehicle are indicated on the registration
document, as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also indicated on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
For more information, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
The GTW (Gross Train Weight) values and the
towable loads listed are valid for a maximum
altitude of 1,000 metres. The towable load must
be reduced by steps of 10% for each additional
1,000 metres.
The maximum authorised nose weight
corresponds to the weight permitted on the
towball.
When exterior temperatures are high, the
vehicle performance may be limited in
order to protect the engine. When the exterior
temperature is higher than 37°C, reduce the
towed weight.
Towing even with a lightly loaded vehicle can adversely affect its road holding.
Braking distances are increased when towing
a trailer.
When using a vehicle to tow, never exceed
a speed of 62 mph (100 km/h) (observe the
local legislation in force).
