Driving
6Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight (at the point where it
joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine CITROËN towing device is
used, the rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the audible
signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill increases the temperature
of the coolant. The maximum towable load
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature. The cooling capacity of the fan
does not increase with engine speed.
►

Reduce speed and lower the engine speed,
so as to limit the heating-up. In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the
STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Braking distances are increased when towing a
trailer. To avoid overheating of the brakes, the
use of engine braking is recommended.
Side wind
Bear in mind the increased susceptibility to the
wind that the vehicle will have.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The remote control contains an electronic chip
which has a special code. When the ignition is
switched on, this code must be recognised in
order for starting to be possible.
A few seconds after switching off the ignition,
this system locks the engine control system,
therefore preventing the engine from being
started in the event of a break-in.
In the event of a fault, you are informed
by illumination of this warning lamp, an
audible signal and a message on the screen.
The vehicle will not start; contact a CITROËN
dealer as soon as possible.

Driving
► Unlock the steering column by simultaneously
turning the steering wheel and the key.
In certain circumstances, you may have
to turn the steering wheel firmly to move
the wheels (if the wheels are against a kerb,
for example).
►

T

urn the key to position 2, Ignition On, to
activate the engine pre-heating system.
► Wait until this warning lamp goes off in
the instrument panel, then turn the key to
position 3 without pressing the accelerator pedal,
to operate the starter motor until the engine
starts. As soon as the engine starts, release the
key.
The warning lamp does not come on if the engine is already warm. In some
climatic conditions, the following
recommendations should be followed:
–

In mild conditions, do not leave the engine
at idle to warm up but move off straight away
and drive at moderate speed.
–


Depending on version, if the air
conditioning is activated and the exterior
temperature exceeds 35 °C, the engine’

s
idle speed may increase, up to 1,300 rpm,
depending on the cooling requirements.
–

In wintry conditions, the pre-heater warning
lamp will stay on for a longer period after
switching on the ignition; wait until it goes off
before starting.
– In very severe wintry
conditions (temperature below -23 °C), to
ensure correct operation and durability of your
vehicle’s mechanical components (engine
and gearbox), leave the engine running for
4 minutes before moving off.
Never leave the engine running in an
enclosed area without adequate ventilation:
internal combustion engines emit toxic
exhaust gases, such as carbon monoxide.
Danger of poisoning and death!
With petrol engines , after a cold start,
pre-heating the catalytic converter can
cause clearly-felt engine vibrations when
stationary, with the engine running, for
anything up to 2 minutes (accelerated idle
speed).
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition.
Wait a few seconds before operating the
starter motor again. If the engine does not
start after several attempts, do not keep
trying: you risk damaging the starter motor
and the engine.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals: – only use mats which are suited to the
fixings already present in the vehicle; these
fixings must be used,
–

never place one mat on top of another
.
The use of mats not approved by CITROËN
may interfere with access to the pedals and
hinder the operation of the cruise control /
speed limiter.
The mats approved by CITROËN have two
fixings located below the seat.
