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.
