Adjust the headlamp height in accordance with the vehicle load.Check the tyre pressures and the electrical signal of the towed vehicle.Respect the authorised load capacities.For maximum loads that can be distributed on the roof bars: See Chapter: “General information”.
Bicycle carrier
Do not attach a bicycle carrier with straps to the follow-ing vehicle versions:
- C4 Picasso 5-seater (all versions) ;
- C4 Picasso 7-seater version with opening rear screen.
Roof bars and roof boxes
The design of your vehicle, for your safety and to avoid damage to the roof and tailgate, requires the use of roof bars and roof boxes that are tested and approved by AUTOMOBILES CITROËN.
DIMENSIONS (in millimetres)
A : 99.04 mm C : 96.84 mm
B : 931.60 mm D : 820.53 mm
Recommendations
- Distribute your load evenly, avoiding overloading on one side.
- Arrange the heaviest part of the load as close as possible to the roof.
- Anchor the load securely and signal if any part of it is overhanging.
- Drive gently, as the vehicle will be more liable to the effects of side winds (vehicle stability may be altered).
- Remove the roof bars as soon as they are no long-er needed.

The puncture repair kit is a complete system including a compressor and a setting product.
It allows you to temporarily repair the tyre, to enable you to drive to your nearest garage.
Depending on model, it is located either in the boot well or in the compartment under the left hand second-row passenger (open the fl a p b y t u r n i n g t h e s c r e w a q u a r t e r turn).
Using the puncture repair kit
1. A f fi x a s p e e d l i m i t s t i c k e r o n the affected wheel, and one on the steering wheel, to re-mind you that you are driving w i t h a w h e e l t h a t i s o n l y fi t f o r temporary use.
2. C l i p t h e fl a s k 1 on the com-pressor 2.
3. C o n n e c t t h e fl a s k 1 to the valve of the tyre to be repaired.
4. Connect the compressor pipe t o t h e fl a s k .
5. Connect the electric cable to one of the vehicle’s 12V sockets.
6. Operate the compressor by pressing the button A until the pressure in the tyre reaches 2.0 bars. If you cannot make the pressure attain this level, then the tyre is not repairable.
7. Remove and stow the com-pressor.
8. Drive immediately for a few miles at reduced speed, in or-der for the repair to set.
9. Adjust the tyre pressure to the normal level for the vehicle, checking that there is no air es-caping (no loss of pressure).
10. Drive at reduced speed (80 km/h / 50 mph).
Visit a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
You must inform the technician that you have used the puncture repair kit to repair the tyre and give him its user guide.

The spare wheel is secured by the conical tapering of the wheel bolt’s shaft (see illustration).
W h e n r e fi t t i n g t h e o r i g i n a l w h e e l , ensure that the wheel bolt contact surfaces are clean and in good condition.
WHEEL EQUIPPED WITH DEFLATION DETECTION SYSTEM
Such wheels have tyre pressure sensors. It is essential to have re-pairs carried out by a CITROËN dealer.
ANTI-THEFT BOLTS (alloy wheels)
Each wheel may be equipped with one anti-theft bolt.
To remove it :
1. Remove the protector that is covering it by means of the tool 2 (for removing the chrome covers on alloy wheels).
2. Use the anti-theft socket 9with the handle.
DIMENSION OF THE SPARE WHEEL
If your spare wheel has dimen-sions different from those of the n o r m a l v e h i c l e w h e e l s ( i d e n t i fi e d by a label), it is imperative to use the spare wheel only temporarily, to drive with caution, not to exceed 80 km/h (50 mph) and to have the tyre repaired and the normal wheel r e fi t t e d a s s o o n a s p o s s i b l e .

The wheel affected will no longer be detectable by the alert system if it is in the boot or undergoing re-pair. The spare wheel is not moni-tored by the alert system.
The SERVICE warning lamp comes on and a vehicle outline is dis-played, accompanied by a message and a sound signal. The wheel(s) concerned will be shown as ab-sent on the vehicle outline. If you have not changed a wheel, this in-formation indicates a malfunction-ing of the system.

This system does not absolve the driver of the need to check the tyre pressures on a regular basis ( s e e “ V e h i c l e i d e n t i fi c a t i o n " ) , t o ensure that the vehicle behaves as it should and to avoid prema-ture wear on the tyres, especially when the vehicle is being subject-ed to heavy loads or driven at high speeds.
Do not forget to check the tyre pressure on the spare wheel.
