BATTERY
Procedure for charging your battery
when it is flat or for starting the engine
using another battery.
Access to the batteryStarting using another battery
 Connect the red cable to the positive
terminal (+) of the flat battery
A, then
to the positive terminal (+) of the
slave battery B
.
 Connect one end of the green or
black cable to the negative terminal
(-) of the slave battery B.
 Connect the other end of the green
or black cable to an earth point C on
the broken down vehicle, as far as
possible from the battery.
 Operate the starter, let the engine
run.
 Wait until the engine returns to idle
and disconnect the cables.
The battery is located under the bonnet
on the left.
To gain access to it:

open the bonnet using the interior le-
ver, then the exterior lever,
 secure the bonnet strut,
 remove the plastic cover to gain ac-
cess to the two terminals.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
138
Do not disconnect the terminals
while the engine is running.
Do not charge the batteries without
disconnecting the terminals first.
Do not push the vehicle to start the
engine if it is fitted with a "2 Tronic"
gearbox.
Before disconnecting the
battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off
the ignition before disconnecting
the battery.
Close the windows, the sunroof
and the doors before disconnect-
ing the battery.
Following reconnection of the
battery
Following reconnection of the
battery, switch on the ignition
and wait 1 minute before starting
to permit initialisation of the
electronic systems. However, if
slight difficulties are encountered
following this operation, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Referring to the corresponding sec-
tion, you must yourself reinitialise:
- the remote control key,
- the electric windows,
- the sunroof,
- the GPS satellite navigation sys-tem.
The batteries contain harmful sub-
stances such as sulphuric acid and
lead. They must be disposed of in
accordance with regulations and
must not, in any circumstances, be
discarded with household waste.
Take used remote control batteries
and vehicle batteries to a special
collection point.
Charging the battery using a
battery charger

Disconnect the battery from the vehicle.
 Follow the instructions for use provided
by the manufacturer of the charger.
 Reconnect starting with the negative
terminal (-).

Check that the terminals and
connectors are clean. If they are
covered with sulphate (whitish or
greenish deposit), remove them and
clean them.
At the risk of discharging the bat-
tery, the deactivated functions can
be reactivated manually.
LOAD REDUCTION MODE
System which manages the use of cer-
tain functions in relation to the level of
charge remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as the air condi
tioning, the rear screen de-icing...
The deactivated functions are reactivat-
ed automatically as soon as conditions
permit.
It is advisable to disconnect the
battery if the vehicle is to be left un-
used for more than one month.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
139
A flat battery prevents the engine
from starting (refer to the corre-
sponding paragraph).
If the telephone is being used at
this time:
-
it will be maintained for 5 minutes
with the RD4 audio equipment
hands-free kit
,
- it will still be possible to finish the call
with the RT3 GPS audio/telephone.
ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the duration of
use of certain functions to conserve a
sufficient level of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio
equipment, windscreen wipers, dipped
headlamps, courtesy lights, etc. for a
maximum combined duration of thirty
minutes.
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated auto-
matically next time the vehicle is driven.
 In order to resume the use of these
functions immediately, start the en-
gine and let it run for a few minutes.
The time available to you will then be
double the duration for which the en-
gine is left running. However, this period
will always be between five and thirty
minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once the thirty minutes are over, a
message appears on the multi-function
display indicating that the vehicle has
switched to economy mode and the ac-
tive functions are put on standby.
CHANGING A WIPER BLADE
Procedure for replacing a worn wiper
blade with a new one without the use
of tools.
Removing a front or rear wiper
blade
 Raise the corresponding wiper arm.
 Unclip the wiper blade and remove it.
Fitting a front or rear wiper
blade
 At the front, check the size of the wip-
er blade as the shorter blade is fitted
on the right-hand side of the vehicle.
 Put the corresponding new wiper
blade in place and clip it.
 Fold down the wiper arm carefully.

TOWING THE VEHICLE
Procedure for having your vehicle towed
or for towing another vehicle using a re-
movable towing eye.
Access to the toolsTowing your vehicle

On the front bumper, unclip the cover
by pressing at the bottom.
 Screw the towing eye in fully.
 Install the towbar.
 Switch on the hazard warning lights
on the towed vehicle. 
On the rear bumper, unclip the cover
by pressing at the bottom.
 Screw the towing eye in fully.
 Install the towbar.
 Switch on the hazard warning lights
on the towed vehicle.
Towing another vehicle
The towing eye is installed in the boot
under the floor.
To gain access to it:
 open the boot,
 raise the floor,
 secure it by hooking its cord on the
hook on the shelf support,
 remove the towing eye from the
holder. When towing with all four wheels
on the ground, always use a tow-
bar.
When towing with only two wheels
on the ground, always use profes-
sional lifting equipment.
When towing with the engine off,
there is no longer any braking or
steering assistance.

Place the gear lever in neutral
(position N on the "2 Tronic"
gearbox or automatic gearbox).

TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, etc.
Towbar suited to the attachment of a
trailer or caravan with additional signal-
ling and lighting.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it
may also be used for towing a trailer.
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars that have been
tested and approved from the design
stage of your vehicle and that the fit-
ting of the towbar is entrusted to a
PEUEGOT dealer.
Driving with a trailer subjects the towing
vehicle to more significant stress and its
driver must be particularly careful.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads
 Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest items are as close
as possible to the axle and the nose
weight approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towing load
must be reduced by 10 % and so on for
every 1 000 metres of altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section for
details of the weights and towing loads
which apply to your vehicle. In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
Side wind
 Take into account the increased sen-
sitivity to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
 To lower the engine speed, reduce
your speed.
The maximum towing load on a long
slope depends on the gradient and the
outside temperature. Braking

Towing a trailer increases the brak-
ing distance.
Tyres
 Check the tyre pressures of the tow-
ing vehicle and of the trailer, observ-
ing the recommended pressures.
Lights
 Check the electrical signalling on the
trailer.
The rear parking assistance will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
PEUGEOT towbar is used.
 If the warning light and the STOP
warning light come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.

FITTING ROOF BARS
When fitting transverse roof bars, use
the four quick-fit fixings provided for this
purpose:
 lift the concealing flaps,
 adjust the roof bar quick-fit fixings.Maximum authorised weight on the
roof rack, for a loading height not
exceeding 40 cm (with the excep-
tion of bicycle carriers): 65 kg.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt
the speed of the vehicle to the pro-
file of the road to avoid damaging
the roof bars and the fixings on the
roof.
Be sure to refer to national legi-
sation in order to comply with the
regulations for transporting objects
which are longer than the vehicle.
