(1) Towing weight
(Towing a caravan, boat, etc.)
- It is important to comply with the towing weights, governed by local legislation in each country and, in
particular laid down in the Road Traffic Regulations. Consult your RENAULT Dealer about any attachments.
Under no circumstances may the gross train weight (= maximum permissible all-up weight plus weight
towed) be exceeded.
- If your vehicle is already at full load (maximum permissible all-up weight), the maximum speed must be
limited to 60 mph (100 km/h) and the tyre pressures increased by 0.2 bar (3 psi).
- The engine output and climbing capability are reduced with altitude. We recommend that the maximum load
be reduced by 10% at an altitude of 1,000 metres and by an additional 10% for each 1,000 metres thereafter.
