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
, refer to the
corresponding section. 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 to avoid the
audible signal if a genuine PEUGEOT
towbar is used.
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.

When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the stay with
care (risk of burns), using the protected
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not
to damage the safety catch.
Because of the presence of electrical
equipment under the bonnet, it is
recommended that exposure to water
(rain, washing, ...) be limited.

Checking levels
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles so equipped, or
using the dipstick.
Engine oil level
Checking using the dipstick
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
It is normal to top-up the oil level between
two services (or oil changes). PEUGEOT
recommends that you check the level, and top-
up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms).A = MA X
B = MINIf you find that the level is above the A mark or
below the B mark, do not star t the engine
.
-

I
f the level is above the MAX mark (risk
of damage to the engine), contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
-

I
f the level is below the MIN mark, you
must top-up the engine oil.
Oil grade
Before topping-up the oil or changing the oil,
check that the oil is the correct grade for your
engine and conforms to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Take care when working under the
bonnet, as certain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and
the cooling fan could start at any time
(even with the ignition off).
To ensure that the reading is correct,
your vehicle must be parked on a level
sur face with the engine having been off
for more than 30 minutes.
The location of the dipstick is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
F

T

ake the dipstick by its coloured grip and
remove it completely.
F

W

ipe the end of the dipstick using a clean
non-fluffy cloth.
F

R

efit the dipstick and push fully down, then
pull it out again to make the visual check:
the correct level is between the marks A
and B .

Screenwash fluid level
Top up the level when necessary.
Fluid specification
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.
In wintry conditions, it is recommended that you
use an ethyl alcohol or methanol based fluid.
Coolant level
Check the coolant level regularly.
It is normal to top-up this fluid
between services.When the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the fan.
In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised,
wait at least one hour after switching off the
engine before carrying out any work.
To avoid the risk of scalding in the event of
an urgent need to top-up, with a cloth around
the cap, unscrew it by two turns to allow the
pressure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top-up the level.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top-up the level.
The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might
be caught by the fan blades.
The check and top-up must only be done with
the engine cold.
A low coolant level presents a risk of serious
damage to your engine.
The coolant level should be close to the "MA X"
mark but should never exceed it.
If the level is close to or below the "MIN" mark,
it is essential to top-up.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
