Ease of use and comfort

138
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the
sensors are not covered with mud, ice or snow.
When reverse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors
may be dirty.
When the speed of the vehicle is below about
6 mph (10 km/h), some sources of noise
(motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic drill, ...) may
trigger the audible parking sensor signals.
Reactivation
Deactivation
F Press button A , the warning lamp comes
on, the system is fully deactivated.
The system will be deactivated automatically
when a trailer is being towed or when a bicycle
carrier is fitted (vehicle fitted with a towbar or
bicycle carrier recommended by CITROËN).
F

P
ress button A again, the warning lamp
switches off, the system is reactivated.
Driving

222
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

T
o 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
CITROËN 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 CITROËN 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 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
exceeding
it.
Air 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.
Refer to the "Technical data" section for details
of the weights and towed loads which apply to
your vehicle. F

I
f the warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
Practical information

223
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.
