In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered with
mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is
engaged, an audible signal (long beep)
indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
Certain sound sources (motorcycle,
lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger
the audible signals of the parking
sensor system.In the event of a malfunction of
the system, when reverse gear
is engaged this warning lamp
is displayed in the instrument panel and/or a
message appears in the screen, accompanied
by an audible signal (short beep).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Operating fault
The function will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed
or a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle
fitted with a towbar or bicycle carrier
recommended by PEUGEOT).
Front parking sensors*
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the
front parking sensors are triggered when an
obstacle is detected in front and the speed of
the vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
The front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than 3 seconds
in for ward gear, if no further obstacles are
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
* Available only with the Park Assist system. The sound emitted by the speaker (front or
rear) indicates whether the obstacle is in front
or behind.
Deactivation / Activation of the
front and rear parking sensors
The function is deactivated by pressing this
button. The indicator lamp in the button
comes


on.
Pressing this button again reactivates the
function. The indicator lamp in the button
goes


off.

Towing a trailer
We recommend the use of genuine
PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved
from the design stage of your vehicle,
and that the fitting of the towbar is
entrusted to a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it may
also be used for towing a trailer. Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
For more advice on driving when
towing, refer to the corresponding
section.You must observe the maximum trailer
weight, indicated on the registration
certificate or in the technical
specification for your vehicle.
For more information on weights (and
the towed loads which apply to your
vehicle) refer to the corresponding
section.

2008_en_Chap09_info-pratiques_ed01-2016
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.

Take the towball in both hands; insert the end
of the towball into the carrier, then, to ensure
that it has correctly locked in place, pull firmly
down on the ball end of the towball.
The locking wheel automatically turns a quarter
of a turn anti-clockwise, making a perceptible
click; take care to keep your hands clear.Check that the towball has correctly locked in
place (position A
).
Turn the key anti-clockwise to lock the towball
fixing mechanism.
Always remove the key and keep it in a safe
place.
If the key cannot be turned or removed, this
means that the towball is not fitted correctly;
start the procedure again.
If one of the locking conditions is not met, start
the procedure again.
In all cases, if the marking remains red, do not
use the towbar and contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop. Attach the trailer to the towball.
Attach the cable on the trailer to the security
ring located on the carrier.
Lower the trailer harness socket carrier by
pulling down on the ring visible below the
b u m p e r.
Remove the protective cover from the socket
and connect the trailer wiring harness.

Practical information

229
2008_en_Chap09_info-pratiques_ed01-2016
Refit the protective cover for the ball.
Stow the towball in its bag.
Refit the protective blanking plug to the carrier.
Maintenance
Correct operation is only possible if the towball
and its carrier remain clean.
Before cleaning the vehicle with a high pressure
jet wash, the towbar harness socket carrier must
be folded away, the towball removed and the
protective blanking plug inserted in the carrier.Never leave the removable towball
unsecured in the boot. In the event of
sudden braking, a towball left loose
in the boot could present a danger to
passengers in the vehicle.
Furthermore, the towball and the boot
risk being damaged.
For any work on the towbar, go to
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Stowing the towball
It is recommended that the removable towball
be safely stowed, preferably in a storage space
below the boot floor.
Attach the towball using the bag tie cord.
