P R A C T I C A L I N F O R M A T I O N

The batteries contain harm-

ful substances such as sul-

phuric acid and lead. They

must be disposed of in accordance

with regulations and must not, in

any circumstances, be discarded

with household waste.
Take used remote control batteries

and vehicle batteries to a special

collection point.

It is advisable to disconnect the

battery if the vehicle is to be left

unused for more than one month.

Do not disconnect the ter-

minals while the engine is

running.

Do not charge the batteries without

disconnecting the terminals ﬁ rst.

Do not push the vehicle to start the

engine if it is ﬁ tted with a 6-speed

electronic gearbox system.

Following reconnection of the
battery
Following reconnection of the bat-

tery, switch on the ignition and wait

1 minute before starting to permit

initialisation of the electronic sys-

tems. However, if slight difﬁ culties

are encountered following this oper-

ation, contact a CITROËN dealer.

Referring to the corresponding sec-

tion, you must yourself reinitialise:

- the remote control key,

- the one-touch electric windows,

- the glass panoramic roof shutter,

- the settings of the multifunction

screen,

- the audio equipment radio stations,

- the GPS satellite navigation

system.

Before disconnecting the
battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off

the ignition before disconnecting

the battery.
Close the windows and the doors

before disconnecting the battery.

ENERGY ECONOMY MODE

System which manages the duration

of use of certain functions to con-

serve a sufﬁ cient level of charge in

the battery.

After the engine has stopped, you

can still use functions such as the

audio and telematics system, wind-

screen wipers, dipped headlamps,

courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum

combined duration of thirty minutes.

Switching to economy mode

Once the thirty minutes are over, a

message appears on the multi-function

screen indicating that the vehicle has

switched to economy mode and the

active functions are put on standby.

If the telephone is being used at this

time:

- it will be maintained for 10 minutes

with your Audio system hands-free

kit,

- it will be maintained for 10 min-

utes with the NaviDrive, then it

will transfer to your telephone

depending on its model.

Exiting economy mode

These functions are reactivated au-

tomatically next time the vehicle is

driven.
In order to resume the use of these

functions immediately, start the engine

and let it run for at least 5 minutes.

A ﬂ at battery prevents the

engine from starting (refer

to the corresponding para-

graph).

TOWING THE VEHICLE

Procedure for having your vehicle

towed or for towing another vehicle

using a removable towing eye.

Access to the tools

According to equipment, the towing

eye is installed in the storage ﬂ ap

under the second row passenger

footwell or under the boot ﬂ oor.

To gain access to it:


open one of the rear doors or the

boot (according to equipment),



open the ﬂ ap or raise the ﬂ oor

(according to equipment),



remove the towing eye from the

holder.

Towing your vehicle



On the front bumper, unclip the

cover by pressing at the top left

and pulling at the right.



Screw the towing eye in fully.



Install the towing bar.



Switch on the hazard warning

lamps on the towed vehicle.



Place the gear lever in neutral

(position N on the electronic

gearbox or automatic gearbox).

Towing another vehicle



On the rear bumper, unclip the

cover by pressing at the bottom

at pulling at the top.



Screw the towing eye in fully.



Install the towing bar.



Switch on the hazard warning

lamps on the towed vehicle.

Failure to observe this special con-

dition could result in damage to

certain braking components and

the absence of braking assistance

the next time the engine is started.

When towing with all four wheels

on the ground, always use a towing

bar.
When towing with only two wheels

on the ground, always use profes-

sional lifting equipment.

When towing with the engine off,

there is no longer any braking or

steering assistance.

190

P R A C T I C A L I N F O R M A T I O N

TOWING A TRAILER, A
CARAVAN, ETC.

Towbar suitable for the attachment

of a trailer or caravan with additional

lighting and signalling.

Your vehicle is primarily designed

for transporting people and luggage,

but it may also be used for towing a

trailer.

We recommend the use of genuine

CITROËN towbars and their har-

nesses that have been tested and

approved from the design stage

of your vehicle, and that the ﬁ t-

ting of the towbar is entrusted to a

CITROËN dealer.
If the trailer is not ﬁ tted by a

CITROËN dealer, it is imperative

that it is ﬁ tted using the electrical

pre-equipment installed at the rear

of the vehicle, in accordance with

the manufacturer's instructions.

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 ex-

ceeding it.

Air density decreases with altitude,

thus reducing engine performance.

Above 1 000 metres, the maximum

towing load must be reduced by 10 %

and so on for every 1 000 metres of

altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section

for details of the weights and towing

loads which apply to your vehicle.

Side wind
 Take into account the increased

sensitivity to side wind.



To lower the engine speed, re-

duce your speed.

The maximum towing load on a long

slope depends on the gradient and

the ambient temperature.

In all cases, pay attention to 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.

Braking
Towing a trailer increases the brak-

ing distance.

Tyres


Check the tyre pressures of the

towing vehicle and of the trailer,

observing the recommended

pressures.

Lighting


Check the electrical signalling on

the trailer.

The rear parking assistance will be

deactivated automatically if a gen-

uine CITROËN towbar is used.

Driving with a trailer subjects the

towing vehicle to more signiﬁ cant

stress and its driver must be particu-

larly careful.

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.

191

P R A C T I C A L I N F O R M A T I O N

ROOF BARS

The design of your vehicle, for your

safety and to avoid damage to the

roof and tailgate, requires the use

of roof bars and roof boxes that are

tested and approved by CITROËN.

Regardless of the type of loading

equipment to be transported on the

roof (roof box, bicycle carrier, ski

carrier...), it is imperative that you

add transverse roof bars.

Recommendations



Distribute your load evenly, avoid-

ing overloading on one side.



Arrange the heaviest part of the

load as close as possible to the

roof.



Anchor the load securely and

signal if any part of it is over-

hanging.



Drive gently, as the vehicle will

be more liable to the effects of

side winds (vehicle stability may

be altered).



Remove the roof bars as soon

as they are no longer needed.

Bicycle carrier

Do not attach a bicycle carrier with

straps to the following vehicle versions:

- C4 Picasso 5-seater (all versions);

- C4 Picasso 7-seater version with

opening rear screen.

Maximum load that can be

distributed on the roof bars

(for a loading height not ex-

ceeding 40 cm; except bicycle car-

rier): 80 kg.

If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt

your speed to the proﬁ le of the road

to avoid damaging the roof bars

and the ﬁ xings on the roof.

Please refer to national legislation

in order to comply with the regula-

tions concerning the transportation

of objects which are longer than

the vehicle.

* According to country.

VERY COLD CLIMATE
SCREEN *

Removable device which prevents

the accumulation of snow at the ra-

diator cooling fan.

Fitting



Offer up the very cold climate

screen to the front of the lower

section of the front bumper.



Press on its periphery to clip its

ﬁ xing clips one by one.

Removal

 Use a screwdriver as a lever to

unclip each ﬁ xing clip in turn.

Do not forget to remove the very

cold climate screen:

- when the outside temperature ex-

ceeds 10 °C,

- when towing,

- at speeds higher than 75 mph

(120 km/h).

192

P R A C T I C A L I N F O R M A T I O N

* To avoid any risk of jamming of the

pedals:

- ensure that the mat is positioned

and secured correctly,

- never ﬁ t one mat on top of another.
