CHANGING A WINDSCREEN WIPER BLADE
ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION
After the engine has stopped, certain
electrical functions can be used for a
maximum duration of approximately
one hour, to prevent discharging of the
battery.
LOAD REDUCTION FUNCTION
When driving, certain functions (air
conditioning, heated rear screen,
heating system for passenger com-
partment of diesel vehicles, etc.) may
be switched off temporarily, depending
on the level of battery charge.
Reactivation of these functions is au-
tomatic, once the battery charge is
suffi cient.
Note: at the risk of discharg-
ing the battery, the functions
that have been switched off
may be reactivated manually.

Note: if the telephone is being
used when economy mode
starts, it will still be possible to
fi nish the call.
A fl at battery prevents the en-
gine from starting.
Replacing a blade

 Lift the arm, then unclip the blade
and remove it.

 Fit the new blade and fold down
the arm.
To reposition the blades, switch on the
ignition and operate the windscreen
wiper stalk. Once the hour is over, a switching to
economy mode message appears on
the multi-function display and the ac-
tive functions are put on standby.
These functions are reactivated au-
tomatically next time the vehicle is
driven.
In order to resume the use of these
functions immediately, the engine
must be started and left to run for a
few minutes.
The time available to you will then be
approximately double the duration
for which the engine is left running.
However, this period will always be
between fi ve and thirty minutes.
This time may be signifi cantly
reduced if the battery charge
is low.
Placing the wiper blades in the
maintenance position

 Less than one minute after switching
off the ignition, press the windscreen
wiper stalk down once to position the
blades at the top of the windscreen
(maintenance position).

Disconnecting/Reconnecting the
cables
- Raise the locking plate A .
- Position the open clip of the cable on the positive (+) terminal of the
battery.
- Press until the position checking system B tilts.
- Lock the clip by lowering the locking plate while pressing on the clip. To start the vehicle from another
battery:
- Connect the red cable to the positive
(+) terminals of the two batteries,
- Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative (-) ter-
minal of the slave battery,
- Connect the other end of the green or black cable to an earth point on
the broken down vehicle as far as
possible from the battery,
- Operate the starter, let the engine run.
- Wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables.
BATTERY (LOCATED IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT)
To charge the battery using a
battery charger:
- Disconnect the battery,
- Follow the instructions for use given by the battery charger manufacturer,
- Reconnect starting with the nega- tive (-) terminal,
- Check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are
covered with sulphate (white or
greenish deposit), disconnect them
and clean them.
It is advisable to disconnect
the battery if the vehicle is not
to be used for a period of more
than one month.
Do not force the plate as lock-
ing is not possible if the clip is
not positioned correctly.
Start the procedure again.

Before disconnecting the bat-
tery, you must wait for 2 minu-
tes after switching off the
ignition.
Never disconnect a terminal when the
engine is running.
Never charge a battery without fi rst
disconnecting the terminals.
Open the windows and close the sun-
roof before disconnecting the battery.
If they do not operate normally follow-
ing reconnection of the battery, they
must be reinitialised (see paragraphs
"Reinitialisation of the electric win-
dows" and "Sunroof").
After every reconnection of the bat-
tery, switch on the ignition and wait
1 minute before starting to allow the
electronic systems to be initialised.
However, if slight diffi culties are ex-
perienced after this, please contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

On the 2.7 litre 24V HDI engine, if
there is no battery in the boot, do
not connect a slave battery to the
positive (+) and negative (-) termi-
nals under the bonnet as a short
circuit may occur.
The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric
acid and lead. They must be
disposed of in accordance
with regulations and must never be
discarded with household waste.
Take used batteries to an approved
collection point.

 open the bonnet,

 use the two additional positive (+)
and negative (-) terminals located
under the bonnet,

 open the red cover of the positive
(+) terminal,

 connect the red cable between the
positive (+) terminal and the positive
(+) terminal of the slave battery,

 connect the green or black cable
between the negative (-) terminal
and the negative (-) terminal of the
slave battery,

 operate the starter, let the engine
run,

 wait for the engine to return to idle,
then disconnect the cables,

 close the red cover of the positive
(+) terminal,

 refi t the left side cover,

 close the bonnet. BOOT) *
* Vehicles fi tted with the 2.7 litre HDI
24 V engine.
The battery is in the left boot trim.

To charge the battery using a battery
charger (boot open):

 fold down the panel to gain access
to the battery,

 disconnect the battery,

 follow the instructions for use given
by the battery charger manufacturer,

 reconnect starting with the nega-
tive (-) terminal,

 raise the panel and close it. To start the vehicle from another
battery:

TOWING YOUR VEHICLE
From the rear:

 Unclip the cover, pulling the upper
rib towards you,

 Screw in the towing eye as far as it
will go.
Special featuresof the automatic gearbox
Lifting (2 wheels only on the ground)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle with
a professional lifting device.
When towing with the engine
switched off, there is no brak-
ing or steering assistance.
From the front:

 Unclip the left part of the cover,

 Screw in the towing eye as far as it
will go. Towing a vehicle with an auto-
matic gearbox in reverse gear
is
prohibited (absence of
lubrication).
When being towed with all four wheels
on the ground, it is imperative that the
following rules are obeyed:
- selector lever in position N ,
- the vehicle must be towed at a speed of less than 30 mph (50 km/h) over
a maximum distance of 30 miles
(50 km),
- do not add oil to the gearbox.
Without lifting (4 wheels on the ground)
You must always use a towbar.
The removable towing eye is inside
the spare wheel.

In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
Brakes: towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually.

Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed. TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars which have been
tested and approved from the design
stage of your vehicle and that the tow-
bar is fi tted by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Driving advice

Distribution of loads: distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heavi-
est loads are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight is close
to the maximum authorised without,
however, exceeding it.

Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope in-
creases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
Note: in certain cases of par-
ticularly arduous use (towing
the maximum load in high
temperatures), the engine au-
tomatically limits its power and selects
the appropriate automatic gearbox
gear in manual mode. In this case,
cutting off the air conditioning allows
the engine power to be recovered, and
therefore the towing capacity to be in-
creased.
If the coolant temperature
warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible.

Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (label on the central
door pillar on the driver's side) and of
the trailer towed, observing the recom-
mended pressure.
