PRACTICAL INFORMATION
TOWING YOUR VEHICLE

Your vehicle can only be towed at
the front. Lifting
(2 wheels only on the road)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle by
the wheels.

Never use the radiator crossmember.

When your vehicle is being
towed with the engine switched
off, there is no braking or steer-
ing assistance.
Without lifting
(4 wheels on the road)
You should always use a towbar.
The removable towing eye is stored
in the spare wheel, under the boot
carpet.

 Unclip the bottom of the cover,

 Screw in the towing eye until it
locks.
Place the gear lever in posi-
tion N for the "SensoDrive"
gearbox.
FITTING ROOF BARS
When fi tting transverse roof bars,
use the accessories recommended
by CITROËN and follow the manu-
facturer’s fi tting instructions.
For further information, contact a
CITROËN dealer.
Please refer to national legis-
lation in order to comply with
the regulations concerning the
transportation of objects which
are longer than the vehicle.
Towing with fours wheels on the road
must be carried out at very low speed
over a very short distance (in accor-
dance with the legislation in force).
In all other cases, your vehicle must
be transported on a trailer.
Vehicles fitted with a manual
gearbox (diesel version)
In the case of vehicles fi tted with a
manual gearbox, the gear lever must
be in the neutral position.
Failure to observe this special condition
may result in damage to certain braking
components and the absence of braking
assistance the next time the engine is
started.

Maximum weight authorised on
the bars, for a loading height not
exceeding 40 cm (except bicycle
carrier): 50 kg.

If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt
the speed of the vehicle to the pro-
fi le of the road to avoid damaging the
roof bars.
