PRACTICAL INFORMATION

TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, ETC.
Drivin
g advice
The maximum towing load on a long
slope depends on the gradient and the
outside temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.

Side wind


)
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.


Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.


)
To lower the engine speed, reduce
your speed.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.

Tyres


)
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.


Lighting


)
Check the lighting and signalling on
the trailer.

)
If this message is dis-
played, stop your ve-
hicle as soon as it is
safe to do so.


If the message fl ashes slowly, wait for
the engine to cool before topping up the
level, if necessary.
If the message fl ashes rapidly, contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop without delay.
Opening of the lower tailgate is
prohibited if a towbar is being
used.
We recommend the use of gen-
uine CITROËN towbars and
their harnesses that have been
tested and approved from the design
stage of your vehicle and that the fi t-
ting of the towbar is entrusted to a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a
CITROËN dealer, it is imperative
that it is fi tted using the electrical pre-
equipment located at the rear of the
vehicle and in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
Driving with a trailer subjects the
towing vehicle to more signifi cant
stress and its driver must be particu-
larly careful.


Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it
may also be used for towing a trailer.
Distribution of loads


)
Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest items are as close
as possible to the axle and the nose
weight approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towing
load must be reduced by 10 % of the
GTW and so on for every 1 000 metres
of altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section for
details of the weights and towing loads
which apply to your vehicle.

WEIGHTS AND TOWED LOADS (IN KG)


* The kerb weight is equal to the weight without load + driver (75 kg).

** The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) (comply with the legislation in force in your country).

*** The braked trailer value corresponds to the towing capacities of the vehicle on a 12 % gradient.
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the performance of the vehicle in order to protect the engine; reduce
the towed weight by 450 kg when your altitude increases by 1 000 m.

A.
Manufacturer’s plate.

The Vehicle Identifi cation Number
(VIN) is indicated on a plate on the
centre pillar, on the driver’s side.

B.
Serial number under the bonnet.

The VIN is engraved on the body-
work near the windscreen.

C.
Front number plate.


D.
Tyres/paint label.

This label is affi xed to the passen-
ger’s door centre pillar. It indicates the following information:


- tyres pressures, laden and unladen,

- wheel rim and tyre sizes,

- tyre pressure for the spare wheel,

- paint colour code.

E.
Serial number behind the wind-
screen.

The VIN is engraved on the dash-
board, behind the windscreen.
IDENTIFICATION MARKINGS

The tyre pressures must be checked
when cold at least once a month.
Low tyre pressures increase
fuel consumption.
