Bicycle carrier/Towing device
The motorised tailgate is not designed to
support a bicycle carrier.
When installing a bicycle carrier on a towing
device with connection of a cable to the towing
socket, the motorised operation of the tailgate
will be automatically deactivated.
If using a towing device or bicycle carrier not
recommended by CITROËN, it is essential
to deactivate the motorised operation of the
tailgate.

recommended to recharge it or change it with
the tailgate closed.
In this situation, a significant force may be
needed to close the tailgate.
F Close it gently without slamming, as slowly
as possible, by pushing at the centre of the
tailgate.
In wintry conditions
To avoid any operating problems, remove
the snow or wait until the ice melts before
requesting motorised opening of the
tailgate.
In some circumstances, the tailgate may open
or close by itself, particularly if:
-
-
-
you hitch or unhitch a trailer,
you fit or remove a bicycle carrier,
you load or unload bicycles from a bicycle
carrier,
When washing
-
you place or lift something behind the
vehicle,
