When refitting the wheel

, refit the wheel 

trim, starting by aligning the cutout with the 

valve and then pushing the trim into place all 

round its edge with the palm of your hand.

Changing a bulb

In some weather conditions (e.g. low 

temperature or humidity), misting on the 

internal surface of the glass of the headlamps 

and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear 

after the lamps have been on for a few 

minutes.

The headlamps have polycarbonate 

lenses with a protective coating:

– 

Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive 

cloth, nor with detergent or solvent 

products.

–  Use a sponge and soapy water or a pH 

neutral product.

–  When using a high-pressure washer on 

persistent marks, do not keep the lance 

directed towards the headlamps, lamps or 

their edges for too long, so as not to damage 

their protective coating and seals.

Changing a bulb must only be done with 

the ignition off and after the headlamp / 

lamp has been switched off for several 

minutes - risk of serious burns!

Do not touch the bulb directly with your 

fingers; use a lint-free cloth.

It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet 

(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the 

headlamp.

Always replace a failed bulb with a new bulb 

of the same type and specification. To avoid 

lighting imbalance, replace the bulbs in pairs.

Engine technical data and 

towed loads

Engines

The engine characteristics are given in the 

vehicle's registration document, as well as in 

sales brochures.

Only the values available at the time of 

publication are presented in the tables.

Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 

workshop to obtain missing values.

The maximum power corresponds to the 

value type-approved on a test bed, under 

conditions defined by European legislation 

(Directive 1999/99/EC).

For more information, contact a CITROËN dealer 

or a qualified workshop.

Weights and towed loads

The weights and towed loads relating to 

the vehicle are indicated on the registration 

document, as well as in sales brochures.

These values are also indicated on the 

manufacturer's plate or label.

For more information, contact a CITROËN dealer 

or a qualified workshop.

The GTW (Gross Train Weight) and towed load 

values indicated are valid up to a maximum 

altitude of 1,000 metres. The towed load value 

must be reduced by 10% for each additional 

1,000 metres of altitude.

The maximum authorised nose weight 

corresponds to the weight permitted on the 

towball.

When exterior temperatures are high, the 

vehicle performance may be limited in 

order to protect the engine. When the exterior 

temperature is higher than 37°C, reduce the 

towed weight.

Towing even with a lightly loaded vehicle 

can adversely affect its road holding.

Braking distances are increased when towing 

a trailer.

When using a vehicle to tow, never exceed 

a speed of 62 mph (100 km/h) (observe the 

local legislation in force).
