Towing a trailer
Towbar suitable for the attachment of a trailer with a dditional l ighting an d s ignalling. We
  recommend   the   use   of   genuine  
C

ITR
oË
N towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved
from   the   design   stage   of   your   vehicle,  
a

nd   that   the   fitting   of   the   towbar   is  
e

ntrusted to a CITR
oË
N dealer or a
qualified
 w
orkshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a CITR
oË
N
dealer,   it   is   imperative   that   it   is  
f

itted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's
 i
nstructions.
Driving   with   a   trailer   places   greater   demands  
o

n   the   towing   vehicle   and   the   driver   must   take  
par

ticular

are.
driving advice
distribution of loads
F Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest   items   are   as   close   as   possible   to t

he   axle   and   the   nose   weight   approaches   the
 m

aximum   permitted   without   exceeding   it.
ai

r density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing
  engine   per formance.   Above  
1

  000   metres,   the   maximum   towed   load   must  
b

e   reduced   by   10   %   for   every   1   000   metres   of  
al

titude.
Side wind
F Take   into   account   the   increased   sensitivity  t
o   side   wind.
Your
 
vehicle
 
is
 
primarily
 
designed
 
for
 
t

ransporting
 
people
 
and
 
luggage,
 
but
 
it
 
may
 
a

lso
 
be
 
used
 
for
 
towing
 
a
 
trailer. Refer to the "Technical Data" section for details
of  the   weights   and   towed   loads   which   apply   to
