BATTERY
Procedure for charging your battery
when it is fl at or for starting the engine
using another battery.
Access to the battery Starting using another battery

 Connect the red cable to the posi-
tive terminal (+) of the fl at 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 the earth point C
on your vehicle (engine mounting).

 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.
To gain access to it:

 open the bonnet using the interior
release lever, then the exterior safety
catch,

 secure the bonnet stay,

 remove the plastic cover to gain
access to the two terminals,

 unclip the fusebox to remove the
battery, if necessary.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
187
Disconnecting the cables

 Raise the locking tab fully.
Reconnecting the cables

 Position the open clip 1 of the cable
on the positive terminal (+) of the
battery.

 Press vertically on the clip 1 to posi-
tion it correctly against the battery.

 Lock the clip by lowering the tab 2 .
Do not force the tab as locking will not
be possible if the clip is not positioned
correctly; start the procedure again. Do not disconnect the termi-
nals while the engine is run-
ning.
Do not charge the batteries
without disconnecting the ter-
minals fi rst.
Do not push the vehicle to start the
engine if it is fi tted with a 6-speed
electronic gear control gearbox or an
automatic gearbox.
The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric
acid and lead. They must be
disposed of in accordance with regu-
lations and must not, in any circum-
stances, be discarded with household
waste.
Take used remote control batteries
and vehicle batteries to a special col-
lection point.
Charging the battery using a
battery charger

 Disconnect the battery from the
vehicle.

 Follow the instructions for use pro-
vided by the manufacturer of the
charger.

 Reconnect starting with the nega-
tive terminal (-).

 Check that the terminals and connec-
tors are clean. If they are covered with
sulphate (whitish or greenish deposit),
remove them and clean them.
It is advisable to disconnect
the battery if the vehicle is to
be left unused for more than
one month. Before disconnecting the battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ig-
nition before disconnecting the battery.
Close the windows and the doors be-
fore disconnecting 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
problems remain following this opera-
tion, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Referring to the corresponding section,
you must yourself reinitialise:
- the remote control key,
- the panoramic sunroof blind,
- the GPS satellite navigation system.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Let the engine run for the
duration specifi ed to ensure
that the battery charge is suf-
fi cient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously
restart the engine in order to charge
the battery.
A fl at battery prevents the engine
from starting (refer to the "Battery"
paragraph).
If the telephone is being used
at this time:
- it will be maintained for 5 minutes with the hands-free kit of your
Peuget Connect Sound or Peugeot

- it will still be possible to fi nish the call with the Peugeot Connect
Media. 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 less than ten minutes, to use the equipment for approximately
fi ve minutes,
- for more than ten minutes, to use the equipment for up to approxi-
mately thirty minutes.
LOAD REDUCTION MODE
System which manages the use of cer-
tain functions according 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 condition-
ing, the heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivat-
ed automatically as soon as conditions
permit.
ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the duration of
use of certain functions to conserve a
suffi cient level of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio and
telematics system, windscreen wip-
ers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy
lamps, etc. for a maximum combined
duration of thirty minutes.
Switching to economy mode

TOWING THE VEHICLE
Access to the tools Towing your vehicle

 On the front bumper, unclip the co-
ver by pressing at the bottom.

 Screw the towing eye in fully.

 Install the towing bar.

 Switch on the hazard warning lamps
on the towed vehicle.
 On the rear bumper, unclip the cover
by pressing at the bottom.

 Screw the towing eye in fully.

 Install the towing bar.

 Switch on the hazard warning lamps
on the towed vehicle.
Towing another vehicle
The towing eye is installed in the boot
under the fl oor.
To gain access to it:

 open the boot,

 raise the fl oor,

 secure it by hooking the cords on
the hooks on the rear parcel shelf
support,

 remove the polystyrene box,

 remove the towing eye from the
holder. When towing with all four
wheels on the ground, always
use a towing bar.
When towing with only two wheels on
the ground, always use professional
lifting equipment.
When towing with the engine off,
there is no longer any braking or
steering assistance.

 Place the gear lever in neu-
tral (position N on the elec-
tronic gear control gearbox
or automatic gearbox).
Failure to observe this spe- cial condition could result
in damage to certain bra-
king components and the
absence of braking assis-
tance the next time the en-
gine is started.
Procedure for having your vehicle towed
or for towing another vehicle using a
removable towing eye.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
191
TOWING A TRAILER,A CARAVAN, ETC.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it
may also be used for towing a trailer. Driving advice
The maximum towing load on a long
slope depends on the gradient and the
ambient temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
Side wind

 Take into account the increased
sensitivity 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. Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.
Tyres

 Check the tyre pressures of the tow-
ing vehicle and of the trailer, observ-
ing the recommended pressures.
Lighting

 Check the electrical lighting and
signalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will
be deactivated automatically if
a genuine PEUGEOT towbar
is used.
 If the warning lamp and the

STOP warning lamp come
on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as
soon as possible.
Towbar suitable for the attachment of a
trailer or caravan with additional lighting
and signalling.
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.
Driving with a trailer subjects the towing
vehicle to more signifi cant stress and its
driver must be particularly careful.
We recommend the use of
genuine PEUGEOT towbars
and their harnesses that have
been tested and approved from the
design stage of your vehicle, and that
the fi tting of the towbar is entrusted
to a PEUGEOT dealer.
If the trailer is not fi tted by a PEUGEOT
dealer, it is imperative that it is fi tted
using the electrical pre-equipment in-
stalled at the rear of the vehicle, in
accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
