INSTRUMENTS and CONTROLS
Following this operation, if you wish
to disconnect the battery, lock the
vehicle and wait at least fi ve min-
utes for the zero reset to be taken
into account.
Service indicator zero reset
After each service, the service indicator
must be reset to zero.
To do this, carry out the following pro-
cedure:

 switch off the ignition,

 press and hold the trip distance
recorder zero reset button,

 switch on the ignition; the
distance recorder display begins a
countdown,

 when the display indicates "=0" ,
release the button; the spanner
disappears.
The distance remaining may be
weighted by the time factor, depend-
ing on the driver’s driving habits.
Therefore, the spanner may also
come on if you have exceeded the
two year service interval.
Service overdue
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on,
the spanner fl ashes to in-
dicate that the service must be carried
out as soon as possible.

Example: the service is overdue by
300 miles (km).
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The spanner remains lit . Retrieving the service information
You can access the service information

SAFETY

PEUGEOT recommends that chil-
dren should travel in the rear seats
of your vehicle:
- "rearwards-facing" up to the
age of 2,
- "forwards-facing" over the
age of 2.
TO CHILD SEATS INSTALLING A CHILD SEAT USING A THREE POINT SEAT BELT
"Forwards-facing"
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the front passenger seat ,
adjust the vehicle’s seat to the interme-
diate longitudinal position with the seat
back upright and leave the passenger
air bag armed.
"Rearwards-facing"
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is
installed on the
front passenger seat ,
it is essential that the passenger air
bag is disarmed. Otherwise, the child
would risk being seriously injured or
killed if the air bag were to infl ate .
Intermediate longitudinal position
* The rules for transporting children are specifi c to each country. Consult the
current legislation in your country.
Although one of PEUGEOT’s main cri-
teria when designing your vehicle, the
safety of your children also depends on
you.
For maximum safety, please follow
these precautions:
- in accordance with European reg-
ulations, all children under the
age of 12 or less than one metre
fi fty tall must travel in approved
child seats suited to their weight ,
on seats fi tted with a seat belt or
ISOFIX mountings * ,
- statistically, the safest seats in
your vehicle for the transportation
of children are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg
must travel in the "rearwards-fac-
ing" position both in the front and
in the rear.

LOCATION OF CHILD SEATS SECURED USING THE SEAT BELT
In accordance with European regulations, this table indicates the options for the installation of child seats secured using the
seat belt and universally approved (a) in relation to the weight of the child and the seat i n the vehicle
(a) Universal child seat: child seat which can be installed in a ll vehicles using the seat belt.
(b) Group 0: from birth to 10 kg. Infant car seats and "car" cots cann ot be installed on the front passenger seat.
(c) Consult the legislation in force in your country before insta lling your child on this seat.
(d) To install a child seat, move the front seat forward, then put the seat back in the upright position to leave enough space for
the child seat and the child’s legs. The front seat can be moved further forward than the intermediate longitudinal position.
U : seat suitable for the installation of a child seat secured using the seat belt and universally approved "rear facing" and/ or
"forward facing".
U (R) : identical to U , with the vehicle’s seat adjusted to its highest position .

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.
