PRACTICAL INFORMATION
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. 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
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 towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing 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.
Towbar suited to the attachment of a
trailer or caravan with additional signal-
ling and lighting.
Driving advice
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their har-
nesses that have been tested and
approved from the design stage
of your vehicle and that the fi t-
ting 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 installed at the rear
of the vehicle, in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions. Driving with a trailer subjects the towing
vehicle to more signifi cant stress and its
driver must be particularly careful.
The maximum towing load on a long
slope depends on the gradient and the
outside temperature.

The quality of the fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly compatible with petrol bio fuels of type E5 (containing 5 % ethanol), complying with Eu ropean
standard EN 228.
Fuels of type E85 (containing up to 85 % ethanol) are reserve d exclusively for vehicles marketed for the use of this type of
fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must comply with European standard EN 15376.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed to operate with f uels containing up to 100 % ethanol (type E100).

Various visible marking elements for the
identifi cation and tracking of your vehicle. Wheels which are fi tted with 225/40
R18 tyres cannot be fi tted with snow
chains. For further information,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
If the infl ation pressure is too low,
this increases fuel consumption.
The infl ation pressure must be
checked when the tyres are cold,
at least once a month.

A. Chassis number under the bonnet.
This number is etched on the body- work near the damper support.
To gain access to it, raise the plastic cover.
B. Chassis number on the windscreen
lower crossmember.
This number is indicated on a gummed label which is visible
through the windscreen.

C. Manufacturer’s label.
This number is indicated on a self- destroying label affi xed to the door
aperture, below the door striker, on
the right-hand side.
D. Tyre/paint label.
This label is affi xed to the door aper- ture, on the driver’s side.
It bears the following information:
- the tyre infl ation pressures with and without load,
- the wheel rim and tyre sizes,
- the brands of tyre recommended by the manufacturer,
- the infl ation pressure of the spare wheel,
- the paint colour reference.
