If using accessories attached to the
towing device (e.g. bicycle carriers, tow
boxes):
– Comply with the maximum authorised nose

heaviest items are as close as possible to the
axle, and the nose weight approaches the

engine performance. The maximum towable load
must be reduced by 10% per 1,000 metres of
altitude.
