given by the battery charger manu-
facturer,

ered with sulphate (white or greenish
deposit), disconnect them and clean
them.
To start the vehicle from
another battery:
- Connect the red cable to the positive (+) terminals of the two batteries,
- 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.
It is advisable to disconnect the bat-
tery if the vehicle is not to be used for
a period of more than one month.
BATTERY
To charge the battery
using a battery
charger:- Before disconnecting the battery, you must wait for
2 minutes after switching
off the igntion.
- Never disconnect a terminal when the engine is running.
- Never charge a battery without irst disconnecting the terminals.
- Close the windows and sunroof before disconnecting the battery.
If they do not operate normally fol-
lowing reconnection of the battery,
they must be reinitialised (see sec-
tions "Reinitialisation of the electric
windows" and "Sunroof").
- After every reconnection of the bat- tery, switch on the ignition and wait

In all cases, pay attention to the cool-
ant temperature.
Note:
in certain cases of particularly
arduous use (towing the maximum
load up a steep slope in high tem-
peratures), the engine automatically
limits its power. In this case, cutting
off the air conditioning allows the
engine power to be recovered, and
therefore the towing capacity to be
increased.
If the coolant temperature warning
light comes on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as soon as pos-
sible.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures of
the towing vehicle (label on the cen-
tral door pillar on the driver's side)
and of the trailer towed, observing
the recommended pressure.
Brakes: towing increases the brak-
ing distance. Drive at a moderate
speed, change down early and brake
gradually.
Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed.
Lighting
Manual adjustment
Adjust your headlamps so as not to
dazzle other road users. Check the
electrical signalling of the trailer.
TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, BOAT ETC...
Only use original PEUGEOT tow bars which have been tested and
approved from the design stage of
your vehicle.
The towbar must be itted by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads: distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heavi-
est loads are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight is close
to the maximum authorised without,
however, exceeding it.
Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
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.
