Practical information
► Disconnect the control unit's charging cable
from the domestic socket.
Accelerated charging (mode 3)
The end of charging is confirmed by the
accelerated charging unit (Wallbox) and when
the green light guides in the flap come on fixed.
►

After disconnection, replace the nozzle on to
the charging unit and close the charging flap.
Deferred charging
By default, the deferred charging start time is set
to be around midnight.
Depending on equipment, this time can be
changed.
Settings
► In the Energy touch screen
application, select the Charging tab.
►

Set the charging start time.
►


Press

The setting is saved in the system.
You can also programme the deferred charging function using a smartphone, via
the MYPEUGEOT APP application.
For more information on Remotely operable
additional functions , refer to the corresponding
section.
Activation
► After programming the deferred charging,
connect the vehicle to the desired charging
equipment.
► Press this button in the flap within one
minute to activate the deferred charging
(confirmed by the light guides coming on in
blue).
Towing device
Load distribution
► 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.
The maximum towable load
must be reduced by 10% per 1,000
metres of
altitude.
Use genuine towing devices and wiring
harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. We
recommend having them fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If not fitted by a PEUGEOT dealer, they must
still be fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Important: if the vehicle has a motorised
tailgate and Hands-Free Tailgate Access
function, and a towing device has been fitted
outside the PEUGEOT dealer network, it
is essential to visit a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop to have the detection
system recalibrated
- risk of malfunction of the
Hands-Free Tailgate Access function.
Certain driving or manoeuvring aid functions
are automatically deactivated while an
approved towing system is in use.
For more information about driving with a
towing device fitted to a trailer and associated
with the Trailer stability assist, refer to the
corresponding section.
Comply with the maximum authorised
towable weight, as indicated on your
vehicle's registration certificate, on the
manufacturer's label and in the Technical
data section of this guide.
If using accessories attached to the
towing device (e.g. bicycle carriers, tow
boxes):
–

Comply with the maximum authorised nose
weight.
–


Do not transport more than 4 conventional
bicycles or 2 electric bicycles.
When loading bicycles onto a bicycle carrier
on a towball, be sure to place the heaviest
bicycles as close as possible to the vehicle.
Observe the legislation in force in the
country where you are driving. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

–

The towball must not be able to move in
its carrier; test by attempting to shake it with
your hand.
If the towball is not locked, the trailer can
become detached - risk of an accident!
During use
Never release the locking system with a
trailer or load carrier on the towball.
Never exceed the maximum authorised
weight for the vehicle - the Gross Train
Weight or GTW.
Always comply with the maximum authorised
load on the towing device: if it is exceeded,
this device may become detached from the
vehicle - risk of an accident!
Before driving, check the headlamp height
adjustment and check that the lamps on the
trailer operate correctly.
For more information on Headlamp height
adjustment, refer to the corresponding
section.
After use
When travelling without a trailer or
load carrier, remove the towball and fit the

Advice on care and maintenance
General recommendations
Observe the following recommendations to avoid
damaging the vehicle.
Exterior
Never use a high-pressure jet wash in
the engine compartment - risk of
damaging the electrical components!
Do not wash the vehicle in bright sunshine or
extremely cold conditions.
When washing the vehicle in an
automatic roller-brush car wash, be sure
to lock the doors and, depending on version,
move the electronic key away and deactivate
the "hands-free" function (Hands-Free
Tailgate Access).
When using a pressure washer, keep the jet
nozzle at a minimum distance of 30 cm from
the vehicle (particularly when cleaning areas
containing chipped paint, sensors or seals).
Promptly clean up any stains containing
chemicals liable to damage the vehicle's
paintwork (including tree resin, bird
droppings, insect secretions, pollen and tar).
Depending on the environment, clean the
vehicle frequently to remove salty deposits
(in coastal areas), soot (in industrial areas)
and mud/salts (in wet or cold areas). These
substances can be highly corrosive.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for advice on removing stubborn
stains requiring special products (such as tar
or insect removers).
Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Interior
When washing the vehicle, never use a
water hose or high-pressure jet to clean
the interior.
Liquids carried in cups or other open
containers can spill, presenting a risk of
damage to the instruments and controls and
the controls located on the centre console. Be
vigilant! CarM an uals 2 .c o m
