Seat belts
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
- restrain one person only,
- must not be twisted, check by pulling in front of you with an even
movement,
- be tightened as close to the body as possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should
be positioned in the hollow of the
shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low
as possible on the pelvis.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as
they will not fulfi l their role completely.
If the seats are fi tted with armrests, the
lap part of the seat belt should always
pass under the armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened
correctly by pulling the strap fi rmly. Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years old
or shorter than one metre fi fty,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap, even with the seat belt
fastened.
For further information regarding
child seats, refer to the "Children
on board" section of chapter 5.
Clean the seat belt straps with
soapy water or a textile cleaning
product, sold by CITROËN
dealers.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, your CITROËN dealer
guarantees all work or any checks,
from testing to maintenance, on your
seat belt equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly
(even after a minor impact) by a
CITROËN dealer: they must not show
any signs of wear, cutting or fraying
and they must not be transformed or
modifi ed. Front seat belts
The front seats are fi tted with
pretensioners and force limiters.
Rear seat belts
The rear seats are fi tted with three-
point inertia reel seat belts.

Towing a trailer
ACCESSORIES
6
Good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep slope in high temperatures), the
engine automatically limits its power. In
this case, the automatic cutting off of
the air conditioning allows the engine
power to be recovered. Tyres: check the tyre pressures
of the towing vehicle (see the
"Identifi cation features" section of
chapter 9) and of the trailer, observing
the recommended pressure. See the "Levels" section of chapter 7.
If the coolant temperature
warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible.

Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change
down early and brake gradually. Towbar
We recommend the use of original
CITROËN towbars and their
harnesses, which have been tested
and approved from the design stage of
your vehicle, and that you entrust the
fi tting of this equipment to a CITROËN
dealer.
If this equipment is not fi tted by a
CITROËN dealer, it is imperative that
it is fi tted using the electrical pre-
equipment installed at the rear of the
vehicle and in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
In accordance with the general
instructions a reminder of which has
been given above, we draw your
attention to the risk linked with fi tting
a towbar or electrical accessory not
recommended by CITROËN . Fitting
such equipment could result in the
failure of your vehicle's electronic
system. Please contact a CITROËN
dealer for information before fi tting this
type of equipment.

Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased.
Drive smoothly and at a moderate
speed.
ABS/ESP
The ABS or ESP systems only control
the vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.

Rear parking assistance
The assistance does not function while
the vehicle is towing. A further range is also available,
structured around comfort, leisure and
maintenance:
Anti-theft alarm, window engraving,
fi rst aid kit, high visibility jacket, rear
parking assistance, warning triangle, ... OTHER ACCESSORIES
These accessories and parts, having
been tested and approved for reliability
and safety, are all adapted to your
vehicle. A wide range of recommended
accessories and original parts is offered.

Regardless of the audio and telematic
equipment offered on the market, the
technical constraints linked with the
fi tting of equipment of these product
groups mean that the special features
of the equipment and its compatibility
with the capacities of your vehicle's
standard equipment must be taken into
account. Please ask a CITROËN dealer

Maximum weights on bars
- Transverse bars on longitudinal bars: 75 Kg (these bars are not
compatible with the Zenith roof). Installing radiocommunication
transmitters
You are advised to contact a CITROËN
dealer before installing accessory
radiocommunication transmitters with
external aerial on your vehicle.
The CITROËN network will inform you
of the characteristics (frequency band,
maximum output power, aerial position,
specifi c conditions of installation) of
the transmitters which can be fi tted,
in accordance with the Motor Vehicle
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive
(2004/104/EC).
"Active Fleet Data" telematic unit
Connected directly to the heart of the
vehicle (multiplexed network: "Full
CAN"), the telematic unit, by means of
a "ready to use" service, permits the
sending in real time of information such
as:
- distance travelled,
- distance remaining before the next
service,
- warnings and faults (oil level, coolant level, oil temperature,
coolant temperature, etc ...).
This enables "Fleet" mangers
to optimise the monitoring and
management of their professional
vehicles.
According to country, contact
a CITROËN dealer for further
information.
