Driving recommendations
F Observe the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
F

M
onitor your environment and keep your
hands on the wheel to be able to react to
anything that may happen any time.
F

D
rive smoothly, anticipate the need for
braking and maintain a
longer safety
distance, especially in bad weather.
F

S
top the vehicle to carry out operations
that require close attention (such as
adjustments).
F

D
uring long trips, take a break every two
hours.
Important!
Never leave the engine running in
a closed space without sufficient
ventilation. Internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases such as carbon
monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death! In severe wintry conditions (temperature
below -23°C), let the engine run for
4
minutes before moving off, to ensure
the correct operation and durability of the
mechanical components of your vehicle
(engine and gearbox).
Never drive with the parking brake
applied . Risk of overheating and damage
to the braking system!
Never park the vehicle or leave the
engine running on a flammable sur face
(dr y grass, dead leaves, etc.). The
exhaust system of your vehicle is very
hot, even several minutes after the engine
stops. Risk of fire!
Never leave a
vehicle unattended with
the engine running. If you have to leave
your vehicle with the engine running, apply
the parking brake and put the gearbox into
neutral or position N or P (depending on
the type of gearbox). Never leave children inside the vehicle
unsupervised
.
On flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded
roads, as this could cause serious damage
to the engine or gearbox, as well as to the
electrical systems of your vehicle.
If you are obliged to drive on a
flooded road:
F

c
heck that the depth of water does not
exceed 15
cm, taking account of waves that
might be generated by other users,
F

d
eactivate the Stop & Start function,
F

d
rive as slowly as possible without stalling.
In all cases, do not exceed 6
mph (10 km/h),
F

d
o not stop and do not switch off the engine.
Driving

In case of towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
d emands on the towing vehicle and
requires extra care from the driver.
Respect the maximum towable weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load
by 10% per 1,000
metres of altitude; the
decreased air density at altitude reduces
engine performance.
New vehicle: do not pull a
trailer
before having driven at least 620
miles
(1,000


kilometres). If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1
to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety
conditions allow, make several light brake
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt about the state of your vehicle,
contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
F

D
istribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight (at the point
where it joins your vehicle) approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height of your
vehicle.
If a
genuine CITROËN towing device is
used, the rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill increases the
t emperature of the coolant. The maximum
towable load depends on the gradient and the
exterior temperature. The cooling capacity of
the fan does not increase with engine speed.
F

R
educe speed and lower the engine speed,
so as to limit the heating-up.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine as
soon as possible.
Brakes
Braking distances are increased when towing
a trailer. To avoid overheating of the brakes, the
use of engine braking is recommended.
Side wind
Bear in mind the increased susceptibility to the
wind that the vehicle will have.
