Towing a trailer
Towbar suitable for the attachment of a trailer or installation of a bicycle carrier, with additional lighting and signalling.
When not towing a trailer, remove the quickly-detachable tow ball before driving, so as to avoid masking the central rear lamp.
Maximum trailer weight
The towing weight is limited: refer to the "Technical data" section.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for transporting people and luggage, but it may also be used for towing a trailer.
At the front
 On the front bumper, unclip the cover by pressing at the bottom to disengage the securing lugs.  Screw the towing eye in fully.
At the rear
 On the rear bumper, unclip the cover by levering at the left with the point of the towing eye.  Screw the towing eye in fully.

245Practical information
We recommend the use of genuine CITROËN towbars and their harnesses that have been tested and approved from the design stage of your vehicle, and that the fitting of the towbar is
entrusted to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. If the towbar is not fitted by a CITROËN dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's instructions.
Driving advice
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 towed load must be reduced by 10 % for every 1 000 metres of altitude.
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.
 If the warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance. To avoid overheating of the brakes on a long mountain type of descent, the use of engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
 Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressures.
Lighting
 Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically if a genuine CITROËN towbar is used.
Driving with a trailer places greater demands on the towing vehicle and the driver must take particular care.
The maximum towed load on a long incline depends on the gradient and the ambient temperature. In all cases, keep a check on the coolant temperature.
Refer to the "Technical data" section for details of the weights and towed loads which apply to your vehicle.
