FITTING ROOF BARS
When fi tting transverse roof bars,

by PEUGEOT and follow the manu-
facturer's fi tting instructions.
For further information, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Please refer to national legis-
lation in order to comply with
the regulations concerning
the transportation of objects
which are longer than the ve-
hicle.
Towing with fours wheels on the road
must be carried out at very low speed
over a very short distance (in accord-
ance with the legislation in force).
In all other cases, your vehicle must
be transported on a trailer.
Vehicles fitted with a manual
gearbox (diesel version)
In the case of vehicles fi tted with a
manual gearbox, the gear lever must
be in the neutral position.
Failure to observe this special condi-
tion may result in damage to certain
braking components and the absence
of braking assistance the next time
the engine is started.
Maximum weight authorised on
the bars, for a loading height not
exceeding 40 cm (except bicycle
carrier): 50 kg.

If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt
the speed of the vehicle to the pro-
fi le of the road to avoid damaging
the roof bars.
