DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (4/5)
Your vehicle has a greater
ground clearance than an
ordinary passenger vehicle.
This gives it a higher centre
of gravity, making it more suscep-
tible to rolling during sudden or ag-
gressive manoeuvres, or when cor-
nering at high speeds.
Take extra care when the vehicle is
loaded (in particular when the load
is on the roof).
Ensure that all passengers are wea-
ring their seat belts.
A label A affixed to the sun visor re-
minds you of this.

Tyres
– An underinflated tyre increases fuel
consumption.
– The use of non-recommended tyres
can increase fuel consumption.

an approved Dealer. Refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions for in-
formation on how to fit and operate
the equipment.
Please keep these instructions with
the rest of the vehicle documenta-
tion.

If fitted on the vehicle, you can trans-
port luggage or additional equipment
(bike racks, ski racks, etc):
– on a roof rack;
– on transverse roof bars which must
in turn be attached to roof bars fitted
lengthways 1;
– directly onto the longitudinal roof
bars.
It is forbidden to fit longitudinal roof
bars on vehicles which are not origi-
nally equipped with them.

If fitted to the vehicle, you can use the
mounting holes 2 of the longitudinal
bars to:
– use luggage restraint systems
(straps, cords, etc.);
– attach additional items without using
the transverse roof bars.

Versions

Maximum permissible all-up weight (MMAC)
Total train weight (MTR)Weights shown on the vehicle identification plate (refer to the
information on “Vehicle identification plates” in Section 6)
Braked Trailer Weight*found by calculating: MTR - MMAC
Unbraked trailer weight*615 680
Permissible nose weight*50 75
Maximum permissible load on roof with a
carrying device80 (including the carrying device)
*Towing weight (towing a caravan, boat, etc.)
Towing is prohibited when the GTW - MAM calculation is equal to zero, or when the GTW is equal to zero (or is not listed) on the
identification plate.
– It is important to comply with the towing weights, governed by local legislation in each country and, in particular, laid down in
the Road Traffic Regulations. Contact an authorised dealer for any towing equipment modifications.
– For vehicles fitted with a trailer, the gross train weight (vehicle + trailer) must never be exceeded. However, the following
is tolerated:
– the Maximum permissible weight at the rear may be exceeded by no more than 15%,
– the maximum permissible all-up weight may be exceeded by no more than 10% or 100 kg (whichever occurs first).
In either case, the maximum speed of the vehicle and trailer must not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) and the tyre pressures must
be increased by 0.2 bar (3 PSI).
– The engine output and climbing capability are reduced with altitude. We recommend that the maximum load be reduced by
10% at an altitude of 1,000 metres and by an additional 10% for each 1,000 metres thereafter.
Weight transfer (depending on the vehicle)
If the Maximum Authorised Mass of the vehicle has not been reached, up to 200 kg can be transferred to the braked trailer, within
the limits of the Gross Train Weight. The weights shown are for a basic vehicle without options: they will vary depending on the equipment level of your vehi-
cle. Please consult an authorised dealer.
