Snow chains
The snow chains must be fitted only
to the front wheels. They must never
be fitted to "space-saver" type spare
wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow
chains and the maximum running speed
authorised.Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to
avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and
the road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted
with alloy wheels, check that no part of
the chain or its fixings is in contact with
the wheel rim.
Advice on installation
F
If you have to fit the chains during a
journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face
on the side of the road.
F Apply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks to prevent movement of your
vehicle.
F Fit the chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
F Move off gently and drive for a few
moments, without exceeding 30 mph
(50 km/h).
F Stop your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
For more information on snow chains, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face.
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle
when braking.

Textured paint
The textured paint reacts to light with variations
of appearance and finish that emphasise
the car's lines and form. This paint contains
particles that remain visible and create
a unique satin effect with relief. Its lightly
granulated texture gives it a surprising feel.
Straight cut matt paintMaintenance:
Observe the following recommendations to
avoid damaging the paint finish:
- Choose a high pressure wash, or at least a
high water delivery; roller brush washing is
compatible.
- Gently wipe the body with a clean
microfibre cloth.
- Carefully wipe off any fuel spilt on the body
using a soft cloth, then allow to dry.
- Clean off any minor marks (for example,
finger marks...), using the product in the
"TECHNATURE " range intended for
removing insects.
The recommendations on the care and
maintenance of the matt paint given in the
servicing and warranty booklet are repeated
below:
- Never clean the vehicle without water.
- Never clean your vehicle in an automatic
roller-brush car wash.
- Never polish the body or the alloy wheels.
This makes the paint bright. -
Do not use paint restorers, abrasive or
polishing products or paint preservers
(wax polish, for example) on the paintwork.
These products are only suitable for bright
finishes. Using them on vehicles finished
with matt paint seriously damages the
sur face finish of the vehicle, resulting in
particular in the appearance of irreversible
bright or stained areas.
- Never use a high pressure jet washer fitted
with a brush as this may scratch the paint
sur face.
- Never select a wash programme with a
final hot wax cycle.
On the other hand:
- Do not use a wash programme that
includes a final hot wax cycle.
- Do not use waterless cleaning.
- Never polish the vehicle.
- Do not use paint restorers, abrasive
or polishing products, or bright paint
preservers (wax polish, for example).
It is always preferable to have paint repairs
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

General information
Engine characteristicsWeights and towed loads
The kerb weight is equal to the unladen
weight + driver (75 kg).
The gross train weight and towed load values
indicated apply up to a maximum altitude of
1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must
be reduced by 10 % for every additional
1 000 metres.
The weight of the braked trailer can be
increased, within the GTW limit, on condition
that the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced
by the same amount.
The recommended nose weight is the vertical
load on the towbar ball (removable with or
without tools). High ambient temperatures may result
in a reduction in the per formance of
the vehicle to protect the engine; when
the ambient temperature is higher than
37 °C, limit the towed weight.
Towing with a lightly loaded vehicle can
adversely affect roadholding.
Braking distances are increased when
towing a trailer.
Never exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) when
towing (comply with the legislation in
force in your country).
GV W:
gross vehicle weight, the maximum authorised vehicle weight.
GT W: gross train weight, the maximum authorised weight of vehicle
plus trailer.
The engine characteristics (capacity,
maximum power, maximum power speed, fuel,
CO
2 emissions...) for your vehicle are given in
the registration document, as well as in sales
brochures.
These characteristics correspond to the
values type-approved on a test bed, under
conditions defined in European legislation
(Directive 1999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. The maximum weights and towed loads for your
vehicle are given are given in the registration
document, as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also present on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
See the "Identification markings" section.
