spare wheel
If your vehicle is fi tted with al-
loy wheels, it is normal to notice
that the washers do not come
into contact with the "space-sav-

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
The batteries contain harmful
substances 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 bat-
teries and vehicle batteries to a
special collection point.
Charging the battery using a
battery charger

 Disconnect the battery from the
vehicle.

 Remove the battery and place it in a
ventilated area.

 Remove the top-up caps and top
up the level with distilled water if ne-
cessary.

 Connect the battery to the charger
observing the instructions for use
provided by the manufacturer and
start charging.

 Disconnect the battery from the
charger and let it to cool.

 If necessary, top up the level with
distilled water.

 Clean the top of the battery care-
fully.

 Put the top-up caps back in place.

 Check that the terminals and
connectors are clean. If they are
covered with sulphate (whitish or
greenish deposit), remove them
and clean them.

 Reconnect the battery starting with
the positive terminal (+). It is advisable to disconnect the
battery if the vehicle is to be left
unused for more than one month.
Do not disconnect the terminals
while the engine is running.
Do not charge the batteries with-
out disconnecting the terminals
fi rst.
Avoid prolonged contact of the
electrolyte with the skin.
Most of these fl uids are harmful
to health and very corrosive. When charging the battery, it is
normal to observe an increase
in temperature and bubbling of
the electrolyte.
Before disconnecting the battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the igni-
tion before disconnecting the battery.
Close the windows, the sunroof, the
doors and the tailgate 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
diffi culties are encountered following this
operation, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Referring to the corresponding section,
you must yourself reinitialise:
- the one-touch electric windows,
- the sunroof,
- the satellite navigation system.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
TOWING TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, ETC. CARAVAN, ETC.
Driving advice 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.
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 lighting and signalling on
the trailer.
 If this message is dis-
played, stop your ve-
hicle as soon as it is
safe to do so.
If the message fl ashes
slowly, wait for the engine to cool before
topping up the level, if necessary.
If the message fl ashes rapidly, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer without delay.
Opening of the lower tailgate is
prohibited if a towbar is being
used.
We recommend the use of genu-
ine 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 towbar is not fi tted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is impera-
tive that it is fi tted using the
electrical pre-equipment located
at the rear of the vehicle and in
accordance with the manufac-
turer's instructions.
Driving with a trailer subjects the
towing vehicle to more signifi -
cant stress and its driver must
be particularly careful.
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 % of the
GTW 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.
