When towing
Distribution of loads
F 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 towed load must
be reduced by 10
% for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.For more information on weights (and
the towed loads which apply to your
vehicle) refer to the corresponding
section.
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.
F

T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towed load on a long incline
depends on the gradient and the ambient
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
F

I
f the warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam
height of your vehicle.
For more information on adjusting the
headlamp beam height, refer to the
corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
PEUGEOT towbar is used.

Warning / indicator lampStateCauseAction / Observations
Engine oil pressure fixed. There is a fault with the engine lubrication system. You must stop as soon it is safe to do so. Park, switch off the ignition and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Battery charge * fixed. The battery charging circuit has a fault (dirty or loose terminals, slack or cut alternator belt, ...).
The warning lamp should go off when the engine is started. If it does not go off, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Low fuel level fixed with the needle in the red zone. There remains approximately 5 litresof fuel in the tank. At this point, you begin to use the fuel reserve.
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out of fuel. This warning lamp will come on every time the ignition is switched on, until a sufficient addition of fuel is made. Fuel tank capacity: approximately 50 litres ( 45 litresfor the BlueHDi Diesel engine). Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel, as this could damage the emission control and injection systems.

There remains very little fuel in the tank.
Under-inflation fixed. The pressure in one or more wheels is too low. Check the pressure of the tyres as soon as possible. This check should preferably be carried out when the tyres are cold.
+ flashing then fixed,
accompanied by the Service warning lamp.
The tyre pressure monitoring system
has a fault or no sensor is detected on one of the wheels.

Monitoring

Touch screen
For For Forsafety reasons, the driver , the driver , the drivermustonly carry out operations that require close attention with the vehicle stationary. Some functions are not accessible when driving.
It gives access to: - menus for adjusting settings for vehicle functions and systems, - audio and display configuration menus, - audio system and telephone controls and the display of associated information.
And, depending on equipment, it allows: - the display of alert messages and the visual parking sensors information, - access to the controls for the navigation system and Internet services, and the display of associated information.
General operation
Recommendations
It is necessary to press firmly, particularly for "flick" gestures (scrolling through lists, moving the map, etc.). A light wipe is not enough. The screen does not recognise pressing with more than one finger. This technology allows use at all temperatures and when wearing gloves. Do not use pointed objects on the touch screen. Do not touch the touch screen with wet hands. Uses a soft clean cloth to clean the touch screen.
State of indicator lamps
Some buttons contain an indicator lamp that gives the state of the corresponding function. Green indicator: you have switched on the corresponding function. Orange indicator: you have switched off the corresponding function.
Principles
Press the " MENU " button for access to the different menus, then press the virtual buttons on the touch screen. Each menu is displayed over one or two pages (primary page and secondary page).
Use this button to go to the secondary page.
After a few moments with no action on the secondary page, the primary page is displayed automatically.
Use this button to return to the primary page.
Use this button for access to additional information and to the settings for certain functions.
Use this button to confirm.
Use this button to quit.
