the ignition, operate the wipers
stalk to position the wiper blades
in the centre of the windscreen
(maintenance position).
ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION
After the engine has stopped, with
the key in the accessories position,
certain functions (windscreen wiper,
electric windows, courtesy lights,
audio equipment etc.) can only be
used for a cumulative duration of
thirty minutes, to prevent discharging
the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, the
message "Economy mode active"
appears on the multifunction display
and the active functions are put on
standby.
To resume the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let
it run for a few seconds.
A lat battery will prevent
the engine from starting.
LOAD REDUCTION
FUNCTION
When driving, certain functions (air
conditioning, heated rear screen,
etc.) may be switched off temporar-
ily, depending on the level of battery
charge.
Reactivation of these functions is
automatic, once the battery charge
is suficient.
Note: at the risk of discharging the
battery, the functions that have been
switched off may be reactivated
manually.

F Lift the wiper arm, then unclip the
blade and remove it.
F Fit the new blade and push back
the arm.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
BATTERY
To charge the battery using a
battery charger:
- Disconnect the battery,
- Follow the instructions for use given by the battery charger manu-
facturer,
- Reconnect starting with the nega- tive (-) terminal,
- Check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are
covered with sulphate (white or
greenish deposit), disconnect them
and clean them. - Before disconnecting the
battery, you must wait for
2 minutes after switching
off the ignition.
- Never disconnect a ter- minal when the engine
is running.
- Never charge a battery without irst disconnecting the termi-
nals.
- Close the windows, the retractable roof and the doors
before disconnecting the battery.
If the windows do not operate
normally following reconnection
of the battery, they must be
reinitialised (see sections
"Reinitialisation of the electric
windows" and "Reinitialisation
of the automatic partial opening
of the door windows").
- After every reconnection of the battery, switch on the igni-
tion and wait 1 minute before
starting to allow the electronic
systems to be initialised. If slight
dificulties are experienced after
this, please contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
It is advisable to disconnect the
battery if the vehicle is not to be
used for a period of more than
one month.
To start the vehicle from
another battery:
- Connect the red cable to the posi- tive (+) terminals of the two batter-
ies,
- Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative (-) ter-
minal of the slave battery,
- Connect the other end of the green or black cable to an earth point on
the broken down vehicle as far as
possible from the battery,
Operate the starter, let the engine run.
Wait for the engine to return to idle,
then disconnect the cables.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
From the front:
F Unclip the cover, by pressing the
bottom part,
F Screw in the towing eye as far as
it will go.Lifting (2 wheels only on the
ground)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle
with a professional lifting device.
Special features of
the automatic gearbox
When towing with four wheels on the
ground, the following rules must be
obeyed:
- lever in position N,
- tow the vehicle at less than 50 km/h over a maximum distance of 50 km,
- do not add oil to the gearbox.
When towing with the en-
gine switched off, there is
no braking or steering as-
sistance.
TOWING YOUR VEHICLE
Without lifting (4 wheels on
the ground)
You must always use a towbar.
The removable towing eye is inside
the spare wheel. From the rear:
F
Unclip the top of the cover using a
coin,
F Screw in the towing eye as far as
it will go.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
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.
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.
On the contrary, use a high gear to
lower the engine speed and reduce
your speed.
The maximum towing load on a long
slope depends on the gradient and
the outside temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the
coolant temperature.
If the warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible. Tyres:
check the tyre pressures
of the towing vehicle and of the
trailer, observing the recommended
pressures.
Braking: towing increases the brak-
ing distance.
Lights: check the electrical signal-
ling on the trailer.
Side wind: take into acount the
increased sensitivity to side wind.
TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, BOAT etc.
Only use original PEUGEOT tow
bars that have been tested and
approved from the design stage of
your vehicle.
The tow bar must be itted by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Your vehicle is primarily designed
for transporting people and luggage
but it may also be used for towing a
trailer.
Driving with a trailer subjects the
towing vehicle to more signiicant
stress and its driver must be
particularly careful.
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.
The rear parking assistance function
will be disarmed automatically when
a towbar is itted.

Manual closing of the roof
(emergency mode)
If the roof opening or closing cycle
does not begin or does not function
correctly, check the following points:
F ignition key in
the accessories
or running position (1st or 2nd
notch),
F the screen must be pulled out,
F the boot must be closed,
F the vehicle speed must be below
6 mph (10 km/h),
F the roof fuse must be in good
condition (see corresponding sec-
tion),
F the windows must be initialised
(see corresponding section),

icient (the roof control button
indicator light must be lit),
F the vehicle must not be subject
to "Economy mode active"
restrictions (see corresponding
section),
F the exterior temperature must not
be below -20 °C. In the event of an electrical or
hydraulic roof malfunction,
it is
possible to close the roof manually.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
This possibility is a breakdown
solution .
Following manual closing of the roof,
the boot lid hinges will no longer be
locked and the boot will no longer be
sealed.
Two people are required to carry
out this operation. Considerable
force is necessary.
F Park the vehicle, if possible on
level ground.
F Lower the windows.
F Switch off the ignition.
F Apply the handbrake.
When carrying out the
roof closing operation,
take care not to catch
your hands in the mecha-
nisms. The following two tools are provided
in the handbook pocket:
F
Allen
TM key with 5 adaptor A and
6 adaptor B,
F Torx
TM key with 20 adaptor C and
