Towing device
Load distribution
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
approaches the maximum permitted without
exceeding


it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. The maximum
load which can be towed must be reduced by
10% per 1,000
metres of altitude.
Use towing devices and their genuine
harnesses approved by CITROËN. It is
recommended that the installation be
per formed by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer, it must still be fitted in accordance
with the vehicle manufacturer's
instructions.
Certain driving assistance or manoeuvring
assistance functions are automatically
disabled if an approved towbar is used.

Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and
deteriorates above 25°C. It should be stored in
a cool place and protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept
for at least a year.
If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once
it has completely thawed out at ambient
temperature.
Never keep AdBlue
® containers in your
vehicle.
Procedure
In cold weather, before per forming the top-up,
ensure that the temperature is above -11°C.
Otherwise the AdBlue
® may be frozen and so
cannot be poured into the tank.
Park your vehicle in a warmer area for a few
hours to allow the top-up to be carried out. F

by the Brand, such as a USB charger
connected to the 12
V socket.
The external environment (hills, buildings,
tunnels, basement car parks, etc.) may
block reception, including in RDS mode.
This is a normal effect of the way in
which radio waves are transmitted and
does not indicate any failure of the audio
equipment.

RDS, if activated, allows you to continue
listening to the same station by automatic
retuning to alternative frequencies. However,
in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS
station may not be assured throughout the
entire country as radio stations do not cover
100% of the territory. This explains the loss
of reception of the station during a journey.
