axle, and the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing
engine performance. The maximum towable load
must be reduced by 10% per 1,000 metres of
altitude.
– Do not transport more than 4 conventional
bicycles or 2 electric bicycles.
When loading bicycles onto a bicycle carrier
on a towball, be sure to place the heaviest
bicycles as close as possible to the vehicle.
Even if you correctly measure the weight
of the vehicle's load, any factor that may
vary this weight (driver/additional passengers
seated or taking on additional fuel) after the
measurement may put the vehicle into the
overload condition.
Observe the legislation in force in the
country where you are driving.

The load includes the weight of the items
stored in the loading area (including any
fittings such as shelves), but also the weight
of all persons on board the vehicle, the
amount of fuel (depending on version) and
various equipment fitted on the vehicle.
For optimal performance, the vehicle must
be parked and loaded on level ground (avoid
the following conditions: parking on a slope or
straddling a pavement).
Overload indicator
Comply with the maximum authorised
towable weight, as indicated on your
vehicle's registration certificate, on the
manufacturer's label and in the Technical
data section of this guide.
The overload indicator is a driving aid and
informs you that the maximum authorised
weight has been exceeded; this may be either
the gross vehicle weight (GVW) or the maximum
authorised weight on either axle (front and rear)
(GAWR).
Attaching a trailer to your vehicle may
affect the operation of the system.
If using accessories attached to the
towing device (e.g. bicycle carriers, tow
boxes):
– Comply with the maximum authorised nose
weight.
The indicator does not relieve the user
from their responsibility.
