F If  the   warning   lamp   and   the  S
TOP  warning   lamp   come   on,  
s

top   the   vehicle   and   switch   off  
t

he   engine   as   soon   as   possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o   avoid   overheating   of   the   brakes   on   a   long  
m

ountain   type   of   descent,   the   use   of   engine  
b

raking   is   recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check   the   tyre   pressures   of   the  
towing   vehicle   and   of   the   trailer,   observing  
t

he
 re
commended
 p
ressures.
Lighting
F Check  the   electrical   lighting   and   signalling  o
n   the   trailer.
The
  rear   parking   sensors   will   be  
d

eactivated   automatically   if   a   genuine  
C

ITROËN   towbar   is   used.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature   of   the   coolant.
As
  the   fan   is   electrically   controlled,   its   cooling  
c

apacity   is   not   dependent   on   the   engine   speed.
F
 
T
o   lower   the   engine   speed,   reduce   your  
s

peed.
The
  maximum   towed   load   on   a   long   incline  
d

epends   on   the   gradient   and   the   ambient  
t

emperature.
In
  all   cases,   keep   a   check   on   the   
c
oolant  
t

emperature.

Before each use
Check that the towball is correctly fitted by verifying the following points:
-  t he   towball   is   correctly   locked   in   place   (position   A),
-
 
t
he   security   key   lock   is   on   and   the   key   removed;   the   locking   wheel   can   no   longer   be  
ope

rated,
-
 
t
he   towball   must   no   longer   move   at   all   in   its   carrier;   try   to   shake   it   by   hand.
During use
Never unlock the device when a trailer or load carrier is fitted to the towball.
N ever   exceed   the   maximum   authorised   weight   for   the   vehicle   plus   trailer   (Gross   Train  
W

eight   -   GTW).
After use
For journeys made without a trailer or load carrier, the trailer harness socket must be folded away,   the   towball   removed   and    the   blanking   plug   inserted   in   the   carrier.   This   measure  
a

pplies   particularly   if   the   towball   could   hinder   visibility   of   the   number   plate   or   lighting.

* The kerb weight is equal to the unladen weight + driver (75 kg).
* *   T he   weight   of   the   braked   trailer   can   be   increased,   within   the   GTW   limit,   if   the   GV W   of   the   towing   vehicle   is   reduced   by   an   equal   amount.  
Warning:
  towing   using   a   lightly   loaded   towing   vehicle   may   have   an   adverse   effect   on   its   road   holding.
Petrol weights and towed loads (in kg)
The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by 10 % for each   additional   1   000   metres   of   altitude.
When
  towing,   the   maximum   authorised   speed   is   reduced   (comply   with   the   legislation   in   force   in   your   country).
High
  ambient   temperatures   may   result   in   a   reduction   in   the   per formance   of   the   vehicle   to   protect   the   engine;   if   the   ambient   temperature   is   above   37   °C,  
l
