the

TOWING A TRAILER
We recommend  the  use  of  genu -
ine  CITROËN  towbars  and  their Â
harnesses
Â
that
Â
have
Â
been
Â
tested
Â
and
Â
approved
Â
from
Â
the
Â
design
Â
stage
Â
of
Â
your
Â
vehicle,
Â
and
Â
that
Â
the
Â
fitting
Â
of
Â
the
Â
towbar
Â
is
Â
en
-
trusted
Â
to
Â
a
Â
CITROËN
Â
dealer
Â
or
Â
a
 qualified  workshop.
If
Â
the
Â
towbar
Â
is
Â
not
Â
fitted
Â
by
Â
a
Â
CITROËN
Â
dealer
, Â
it
Â
must
Â
still
Â
be
Â
fitted
Â
in
Â
accordance
Â
with
Â
the
Â
vehicle
Â
manufacturer's
Â
instruc
-
tions.
Your
Â
vehicle
Â
is
Â
primarily
Â
designed
Â
for
Â
transporting
Â
people
Â
and
Â
luggage,
Â
but
Â
it
Â
may
Â
also  be  used  for  towing  a  trailer.
Driving Â
with

a
Â
trailer

places
Â
greater
Â
de
-
mands
Â
on
Â
the
Â
towing
Â
vehicle
Â
and
Â
the
Â
driver
 must  take  particular  care.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads
FÂ
Distribute
Â
the
Â
load
Â
in
Â
the
Â
trailer
Â
so
Â
that
Â
the
Â
heaviest
Â
items
Â
are
Â
as
Â
close
Â
as
Â
possible
Â
to
Â
the
Â
axle
Â
and
Â
the
Â
nose
Â
weight
Â
approaches
Â
the
Â
maximum
Â
permitted
 without  exceeding  it.
Air
Â
density
Â
decreases
Â
with
Â
altitude,
Â
thus
Â
reducing
Â
engine
Â
performance.
Â
Above
Â
1Â
000 Â
metres,
Â
the
Â
maximum
Â
towed
Â
load
Â
must
Â
be
Â
reduced
Â
by
Â
10Â
% Â
for
Â
every
Â
1Â 000
 metres  of  altitude.
Side wind
F
Â
T
ake Â
into

account
Â
the
Â
increased
Â
sensitivity
 to  side  wind.
Cooling
Towing
Â
a
Â
trailer
Â
on
Â
a
Â
slope
Â
increases
Â
the
 temperature  of  the  coolant.
As
Â
the
Â
fan
Â
is
Â
electrically
Â
controlled,
Â
its
Â
cooling
Â
capacity
Â
is
Â
not
Â
dependent
Â
on
Â
the
 engine  speed.
F
Â
T
o Â
lower
Â
the
Â
engine
Â
speed,
Â
reduce
Â
your
 speed. The
Â
maximum
Â
towed
Â
load
Â
on
Â
a
Â
long
Â
in
-
cline  depends  on  the  gradient  and  the  ambient
 temperature.
In  all  cases,  keep  a  check  on  the Â
Â
coolant
 temperature.
F
Â
If
Â
the
Â
warning
Â
lamp

and
Â
the
Â
ST
OP Â
warning

stop
Â
the

vehicle

and

switch
Â
of
f Â
the
Â
engine
Â
as
Â
soon
 as  possible.
Braking
Towing
Â
a
Â
trailer
Â
increases
Â
the
Â
braking
Â
distance.
T
o Â
avoid
Â
overheating
Â
of
Â
the
Â
brakes
Â
on
Â
a
Â
long
Â
mountain
Â
type
Â
of
Â
descent,
Â
the
Â
use
Â
of
 engine  braking  is  recommended.
Tyres

Check
Â
the
Â
tyre
Â
pressures
Â
of
Â
the
Â
towing
Â
vehicle
Â
and
Â
of

the

the

recommended

sures.
Lighting

Â
Check
Â
the
