On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
Ty r e s
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle (see the "Identification markings"
section of chapter 8) and of the trailer,
observing the recommended pressures.
Towbar

We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle, and that
you entrust the fitting of this equipment to a
CITROËN dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a CITROËN
dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted using
the electrical pre-equipment installed at the
rear of the vehicle and in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions.
In accordance with the general instructions
a reminder of which has been given above,
we draw your attention to the risk associated
with fitting a towbar or electrical accessory
not recommended by CITROËN. Fitting such
equipment could result in the failure of your
vehicle's electronic system. Please obtain
information from the Manufacturer before
fitting this type of equipment.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 6.

Good Practice

In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a steep
slope in high temperatures), the engine
automatically limits its power. In this
case, the air conditioning is automatically
cut off to save engine power.
If the coolant temperature warning
lamp comes on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine as soon
as possible.
Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance. Drive
at a moderate speed, change down early
and brake gradually.

Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased. Drive
smoothly and at a moderate speed.

ABS/ESP
The ABS or ESP systems only control the
vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.

Rear parking sensors
The parking sensors system does not
function while the vehicle is towing.

CHECKS


Battery

At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.


Brake pads

Brake pad wear depends on the style of
driving, in particular for vehicles which are
used in town, over short distances. It may
be necessary to check the thickness of the
pads, even between services.
Unless there is a leak in the system, a drop
in the brake fluid level indicates that the
brake pads are worn.


Brake disc/drum wear

For any information on checking the brake
disc/drum wear, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.


Parking brake

Where the parking brake travel is too great
or there is a reduction in the performance
of the system, the parking brake should be
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.


Oil filter

Change the filter regularly, in accordance
with the servicing schedule.


Carbon filter and passenger
compartment filter
The carbon filter permits continuous and
effective filtering of dust.
If the passenger compartment filter becomes
clogged, this may reduce the performance
of the air conditioning system and generate
unpleasant odours.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment filter. By means of
its second special active filter, it contributes
to the purification of the air breathed by
the occupants and the cleanness of the
passenger compartment (reduction of
allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
Refer to the servicing booklet to find out the
replacement interval for these components.
Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the vehicle
(urban driving...), change them twice as
often if necessary.

Particle emission filter (Diesel)

This filter actively contributes
to the preservation of air quality
by trapping unburnt polluting
particles. It is controlled
completely and automatically by the engine
management system.
This warning lamp comes on if there is a risk
of blockage of the filter.
This alert signals the start of saturation of
the particle emissions filter (exceptionally
prolonged driving in urban conditions:
reduced speed, traffic jams…).
If this alert persists, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
On acceleration after the vehicle has been
running for a prolonged period at very low
speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional
circumstances, notice the emission of water
vapour at the exhaust. This water vapour
does not have any adverse effect on vehicle
handling or the environment.
To regenerate the filter, it is recommended
that as soon as driving conditions permit,
you drive at a speed of at least 36 mph
(60 km/h) for at least 5 minutes (until the
warning lamp goes off and/or the message
disappears). Refer to "Under the bonnet" in section 6.

Changing a wheel


CHANGING A WHEEL

If your vehicle is equipped with a spare
wheel located underneath the vehicle, follow
these instructions.

1. PARKING THE VEHICLE



- You must ensure that the occupants
get out of the vehicle and wait in a safe
location.

- If possible, park the vehicle on level,
stable and non-slippery ground.

- Apply the parking brake, switch off the
ignition and engage first or reverse gear.

- If available, place a chock under the
wheel diagonally opposite the one to be
changed.
On certain types of ground and/or if heavy
loads are being transported, the vehicle
must be raised in order to disengage
the spare wheel from the carrier. Call a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
If your vehicle is fitted with suspension
with pneumatic compensation, please
deactivate the system. Refer to the "Rear
suspension" section of chapter 3.


2. TOOLS



- If fitted on your vehicle, open the
plastic flap located at the rear left of
the vehicle.

- Unscrew the nut then take out the jack
and the wheelbrace.

Changing a wheel



4. OPERATING PROCEDURE


- Place the jack in contact with the
locating point provided, the one which is
closest to the wheel to be changed.
Ensure that the jack is straight and that
the base of the jack is fully in contact
with the ground.

- Extend the jack to lift the wheel clear of
the ground.

- Resume and complete the unscrewing of
the wheel bolts.

- Remove the bolts and remove the wheel.

- Remove the trim pulling it using the
towing eye.

- Loosen the wheel bolts and start
unscrewing them. Do not extend the jack until you have
started unscrewing the bolts on the
wheel to be changed and have placed the
chock under the wheel diagonally opposite.

Snow screen

REMOVABLE SNOW SCREEN

According to country, the removable snow
screen is installed on the lower part of the
front bumper to prevent the accumulation of
snow at the radiator cooling fan.

FITTING



- Offer up the snow screen facing its
centring pin A
on the front bumper.

- Put it in place by pressing at each clip B

located in the four corners.

Do not forget to remove
the snow screen
when the exterior temperature is higher than
10 °C (no
risk of snowfall) and when towing.


REMOVAL



- Pass a screwdriver into the hole located
near each of the clips.

- Use the screwdriver as a lever to unclip
the four clips B
in turn.



6. REFITTING THE REPAIRED
WHEEL
The wheel is refitted as described in step 5,
not forgetting to refit the wheel trim.
Refer to the "Identification markings"
section of chapter 8 to locate the tyre
label.
The spare wheel is not designed to be
used over long distances. Have the
tightening of the bolts and the tyre pressure
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible. Also, have
the original wheel repaired and refitted by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
