ROOF BARS
The design of your vehicle requires
the use of roof bars and roof box-
es that are tested and approved by
CITROËN, for your safety and to avoid
damage to the roof and tailgate
Regardless of the type of loading
equipment to be transported on the
roof (roof box, bicycle carrier, ski
carrier...), you must 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
The installation of a bicycle carrier
on the tailgate of the 3-door model is
strictly prohibited.
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.
