Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the
bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance
(roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in
preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on
maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in
the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter,
passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of
operations recommended in the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is faulty your vehicle
becomes polluting; go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay to have the emissions of nitrous oxides brought back to
the legal level.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to
avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to
a consistent average.

Maximum application
If necessary, you can make a maximum
application of the parking brake. It is obtained
by means of a long pull on control lever A,
until you see the message " Max application
of the parking brake " and an audible signal
is heard.
Maximum application is essential:
- in the case of a vehicle towing a caravan
or a trailer, if the automatic functions are
activated but you are applying the parking
brake manually,
- when the effective gradient you are parked
on is variable (e.g. on a ferry, in a lorry,
during towing).
Particular situations
In certain situations (starting the engine...), the
parking brake can automatically alter its level of
application. This is normal operation.
To advance your vehicle a few centimetres
without starting the engine, but with the ignition
on, press on the brake pedal and release the
parking brake by pushing then releasing
control lever A .
The full release of the parking brake is
confirmed by the warning lamp P in the control
lever and the warning lamp in the instrument
panel going off and the display of a message
" Parking brake released" in the instrument
panel screen.
To ensure correct operation of the parking
brake and therefore your safety, the number of
successive application/release operations is
limited to eight.
If this number is exceeded, you are warned by
the message " Parking brake faulty " and a
warning lamp flashes. In the event of a battery failure, it will
not be possible to operate the electric
parking brake.
As a safety measure if the parking
brake is not applied, immobilise the
vehicle by engaging a gear or by
placing a chock against one of the
wheels.
Contact a CITR
oËn dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Please note...
- in the case of towing, a loaded vehicle or
parking on a gradient, turn the front wheels
towards the pavement and engage a gear
when you park.
- after a maximum application, the release
time will be longer.

Towing a trailer
Your vehicle is primarily designed for transporting people and luggage, but it may also be used for towing a trailer.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity
to side wind.
Driving advice
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.
F 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.
We recommend the use of genuine
CITR
oËn towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved
from the design stage of your vehicle,
and that the fitting of the towbar is
entrusted to a CITR oËn dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a
CITROËN dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Driving with a trailer places greater demands
on the towing vehicle and the driver must take
particular care.
Distribution of loads
F d istribute 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
exceeding it.
a ir density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine per formance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10 % for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.
F If the warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
Refer to the "Technical data" section for
details of the weights and towed loads
which apply to your vehicle.

Blanking cover
When towing, you must remove the blanking
cover in the front bumper as well as the bonnet
seal if fitted.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop for this.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling
on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
CITROËN towbar is used.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a long
mountain type of descent, the use of engine
braking is recommended.

The GTW and towed load values indicated apply up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by 10 % for

The maximum authorised speed is reduced when towing (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the per formance of the vehicle in order to protect the engine; when the ambient temperature is
higher than 37 °C, limit the weight towed. * The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, on condition that the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced by the same
amount; warning, towing with a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.
