load capacity Citroen DS4 RHD 2013.5 1.G Owner's Manual

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 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.


Side wind




Take into account the increased sensitivity
to side wind.



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.



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.



If the warning lamp and the STOP

warning lamp come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.

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.


Ty r e s




Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, obser ving the
recommended pressures.



Lighting




Check the electrical lighting and signalling
on the trailer.

Refer to the "Technical data" section for
details of the weights and towed loads
which apply to your vehicle.

MUSIC MEDIA PLAYERS



Sources

Insert the CD in the player, insert the USB memory
stick in the USB player or connect the USB
peripheral to the USB port using a suitable cable
(not supplied) .
The system builds playlists (in temporary memory),
an operation which can take from a few seconds to
several minutes at the fi rst connection.
Reduce the number of non-music fi les and the
number of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition is
switched off or connection of a USB memory stick.
However, the system memorises these lists and
if they are not modifi ed, the loading time will be
shorter.
Play starts automatically after a period which
depends on the capacity of the USB memory stick.
