- passenger compartment tem-
perature, left and right,
- air distribution,
- air conditioning,
- automatic air recirculation.
For this facility to operate, it is recom-
mended that all air vents are kept
open.
Using the AUTO
mode will prevent
the formation of mist inside the ve-
hicle in cold or humid weather.

SAFETY
BRAKING ASSISTANCE
SYSTEMS
Group of supplementary systems
which help you to obtain optimum
braking in complete safety in emer-
gency situations:
- anti-lock braking system (ABS),
- electronic brake force distribu-
tion (EBFD),
- emergency braking assistance
(EBA).
Anti-lock braking system
and electronic brake force
distribution
Linked systems which improve the
stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle when braking, in particular
on poor or slippery surfaces.
Activation
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock.
Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibration of
the brake pedal.
Operating fault
When braking in an emergency,
press very fi rmly without releasing
the pressure. If this warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
in the screen, it indicates a
malfunction of the anti-lock braking
system which could result in loss of
control of the vehicle when braking.
If this warning lamp comes
on, together with the STOP
and ABS
warning lamps,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the screen,
it indicates a malfunction of the elec-
tronic brake force distribution which
could result in loss of control of the
vehicle when braking.
You must stop as soon as it is
safe to do so.
In either case, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to
the manufacturer's recommenda-
tions.
Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency,
enables you to obtain the optimum
braking pressure more quickly, thus
reducing the stopping distance.
Activation
It is triggered by the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed.
The effect of this is a reduction in
the resistance of the pedal and an
increase in braking effi ciency.
When braking in an emergency,
press fi rmly without releasing the
pressure.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Towbar suitable for the attachment
of a trailer with additional lighting
and signalling.
Your vehicle is primarily designed
for transporting people and luggage,
but it may also be used for towing a
trailer.
We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their har-
nesses that have been tested and
approved from the design stage
of your vehicle, and that the fi t-
ting of the towbar is entrusted to
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a
CITROËN dealer, it is imperative
that it is fi tted in accordance with the
vehicle manufacturer's instructions.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads
)
Distribute the load in the trailer
so that the heaviest items are as
close as possible to the axle and
the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without ex-
ceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude,
thus reducing engine performance.
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10 %
for every 1 000 metres of altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section
for details of the weights and towed
loads which apply to your vehicle.
Side wind
)
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.
)
To lower the engine speed, re-
duce 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 STOP
warning lamp
come on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the brak-
ing distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes
on a long mountain type of descent,
the use of engine braking is recom-
mended.
Tyres
)
Check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle and of the trailer,
observing the recommended
pressures.
Lighting
)
Check the electrical lighting and
signalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a gen-
uine CITROËN towbar is used.
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
the driver must take particular care.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled,
its cooling capacity is not dependent
on the engine speed.
