Practical information
– the green mark on the star wheel is in line
with the white mark on the ball joint,
– the locking wheel is in contact with the towball (position A),– the security key lock is on and the key removed; the locking wheel can no longer be
operated,
– the towball must not be able to move in its carrier; test by shaking it with your hand.
If the towball is not locked, the trailer can
detach - accident risk!
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 Train
Weight or GTW.
It is essential that the maximum authorised
load be complied with on the towing device:
if it is exceeded, this device may detach from
the vehicle, which is a serious accident risk.
Check that the trailer lamps work correctly.
Before setting off, check the adjustment of the
headlamp beam height.
For more information on Headlamp
adjustment, refer to the corresponding
section.
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.
Fitting the towball
► Below the rear bumper , remove the protective plug 2 from the towball carrier 1.
► Insert the end of towball 5 into carrier 1 and
push it upwards; the locking will take place
automatically.
► The locking wheel 6 turns a quarter of a turn
anti-clockwise ; take care to keep your hands
clear!
► Check that the mechanism has correctly locked into place and that the green mark on the
star wheel is in line with the white mark on the
towball (position A).
► Close the lock 7 using the key.

Practical information
► Remove the roof bars once they are no longer needed.
Maximum load, distributed over the roof
bars, for a loading height not exceeding
40 cm:
– without longitudinal bars: 50 kg,– with longitudinal bars: 45 kg.
As this value may change, please verify the
maximum load quoted on the note supplied
with the roof bars.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the
speed of the vehicle to the profile of the road
to avoid damaging the roof bars and the
mountings on the vehicle.
Be sure to refer to national legislation in order
to comply with the regulations for transporting
objects which are longer than the vehicle.
Bonnet
Stop & Start
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
you must switch off the ignition to avoid any
risk of injury resulting from an automatic
change to START mode.
The location of the interior bonnet release lever prevents the bonnet being
opened when the left-hand front door is
closed.
When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the bonnet stay
with care (risk of burns), using the protected
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.
Cooling of the engine when stopped
The engine cooling fan may start after
the engine has been switched off.
Take care with objects or clothing that
could be caught in the blades of the fan!
Opening
► Open the left-hand front door .
► Pull the interior release lever, located at the bottom of the door frame, towards you.
► Tilt the safety catch to the left and raise the bonnet.
► Unclip the stay from its housing and place it in the support slot to hold the bonnet open.
Closing
► Hold the bonnet and pull out the stay from the support slot.
► Clip the stay in its housing.► Lower the bonnet and release it near the end of its travel.► Pull on the bonnet to check that it is locked correctly.
Because of the presence of electrical
equipment under the bonnet, it is strongly
recommended that exposure to water (rain,
washing, etc.) be limited.
