The distance remaining may be weighted by the time factor,
depending on the driver's driving habits.
Therefore, the spanner may also come on if you have exceeded
the one year service interval.

SAFETY

GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO CHILD SEATS

Although one of PEUGEOT main criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please observe the following recommendations:


- in accordance with European regulations, all children under the
age of 12 or less than one and a half metres 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 carrying
children are the rear seats,


- a child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the "rearwards-
facing" position both in the front and in the rear.




Child seat at the rear

Only children between 9 and 18 kg can be carried in the rear
seats in a "forwards-facing" universal ISOFIX child seat.



CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT


"Rearwards-facing"

When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is installed on the front
passenger seat
, it is essential that the passenger airbag is deactivated.
Otherwise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if
the airbag were to infl ate
.

*

The rules for carrying children are specifi c to each country. Refer to
the current legislation in your country.


"Forwards-facing"

When a "forwards-facing" child seat is installed on the front passenger
seat
, adjust the vehicle's seat to the intermediate longitudinal position
with the seat back upright and leave the passenger airbag activated.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
TOWING A VEHICLE

TOWING EYE

This is stored in the boot under the fl oor.
For access to it:


)
open the boot,

)
raise the fl oor using the strap,

)
secure it in the vertical position beyond the stops, located on the
sides of the boot,

)
remove the towing eye from the storage box.



GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

Observe the legislation in force in your country.
Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is higher than that of
the towed vehicle.
The person at the wheel of the towed vehicle must have a valid
driving licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, always
use an approved towing bar; rope and straps are prohibited.
When towing a vehicle with the engine off, there is no longer any
power assistance for braking or steering.
In the following cases, you must always call on a professional
recovery service:


- vehicle broken down on a motorway or fast road,

- 4 wheel drive vehicle,

- when it is not possible to put the gearbox into neutral, unlock
the steering, or release the parking brake,

- towing with only two wheels on the ground,

- where there is no approved towing bar available...

8/
PRACTICAL INFORMATION
TOWING A TRAILER

Towbar suitable for the attachment of a trailer with additional lighting
and signalling.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for transporting people and luggage,
but it may also be used for towing a trailer.
We recommend use of the PEUGEOT genuine towbar with ball
which can be removed without tools and its harness 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 or a qualifi ed workshop.
If the trailer is fi tted outside the PEUGEOT dealer network, it must
be fi tted in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.


DRIVING ADVICE

Driving with a trailer subjects the towing vehicle to more signifi cant
stress and its driver must be particularly careful.

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 version.


Side wind



)
Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.

196
*

The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, on condition that the GVW of the towing vehicle is reduced by the same
amount; warning: towing with a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.

IDENTIFICAT ION MARKINGS
Various visible markings for the identifi cation of your vehicle.



A.
Vehicle identifi cation number (VIN) under the bonnet.

This number is engraved on the bodywork near the damper
support.
