The temperature of the cooling

Wait until the engine has cooled down before topping-

If the problem persists, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or

accompanied by the
display of a message. One or more minor faults for which
there is no specific warning lamp
have been detected. Identify the cause of the fault using the message
displayed in the instrument panel.
You can deal with some problems yourself, such as a
door open or the start of saturation of the particle filter
(as soon as the traffic conditions allow, regenerate the
filter by driving at a speed of at least 40 mph
(60 km/h), until the warning lamp goes off).
For any other problems, such as a fault with the tyre
under inflation detection system, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Coolant temperature gauge
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Wait a few minutes before switching off the
engine.
With the engine running:
-

i

n zone A , the temperature is correct,
-

i

n zone B, the temperature is too high;
this warning lamp and the central STOP
warning lamp come on, accompanied by
the display of a message and an audible
signal. For more information on Checking
levels
, refer to the corresponding
section.
Indicators
After first switching off the ignition,
open the bonnet cautiously and check
the coolant level.

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.

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.
