Braking

To w i ng a trailer increases the braking distance.
To a v o i d o v e r h e a t i ng of the brakes on a long
mountain type of descent, the use of enginebraking is recommended.


Tyres
)
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, obser ving the
recommended pressures.

Lighting
)
Check the electrical lighting and signallingon the trailer.

The rear parking sensors will bedeactivated automatically if a genuineCITROËN towbar is used.
Cooling
To w i ng a trailer on a slope increases the
temperature of the coolant.

As the fan is electrically controlled, its coolingcapacity is not dependent on the engine speed. )To lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed. 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.
) If the warning lamp and the STOPwarning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
