Technical data
Engine technical data and
towed loads
Engines
The engine characteristics are given in the
vehicle's registration document, as well as in
sales brochures.
The maximum power corresponds to the
value type-approved on a
test bed, under
conditions defined in European legislation
(Directive 1999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a
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 dealer or
a qualified workshop.
The GTW (Gross Train Weight) values and the
towable loads listed are valid for a maximum
altitude of 1,000
metres. The towable load must
be reduced by steps of 10% for each additional
1,000
metres.
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).
