Load space cover
To install:
- position one end of the load space cover roller in its notch,
- compress the opposite end of the roller and put it in place,
- release it so that it engages,
- unroll the load space cover to the pillars,
- fix the two hooks on the pillars.
Stowing rings
Use the stowing rings on the rear floor to fix
the net, your loads or luggage.
For safety reasons, on sharp braking, it is
recommended that heavy objects are placed
as far forward as possible. To remove:
- pull the load space cover towards you to
disengage it from its fixings,
- reinsert the load space cover in its roller,
- compress it and remove it from its support.
You are advised to immobilise the load
by securing it firmly using the stowing
rings on the floor.

Towing a trailer
For more information about weights,
refer to the administrative documents
(V5 registration document, ...) or to the
"Weights" section of chapter 9.
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...

Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest objects are as close as possible
to the axle and the nose weight is close to
the maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.
A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in
neutral.

ACCESSORIES

In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature. Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identification
features" section of chapter 9) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressure. 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 fitting of this equipment to a
CITROËN dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted 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
fitting 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 fitting this type of
equipment.
If the coolant temperature warning
light comes on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine as soon
as possible.
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.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 7.
Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change down
early and brake gradually.

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.

(1) Gross vehicle weight (GVW).
(2) Braked towed weight with load transfer: this can be increased on condition that the equivalent o f this load is removed from the vehicle so
that the GTW is not exceeded.
High exterior temperatures may result in a reducti on in the performance of the vehicle to protect the engine. When the exterior temperature
is higher than 37 °C, limit the towed weight to 700 kg, without load transfer.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 m ph (100 km/h) (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
