Practical information

The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric acid
and lead. They must be disposed of in
accordance with regulations and must
not, in any circumstances, be discarded
with household waste.
Take used remote control batteries and
vehicle batteries to a special collection
point.

Do not disconnect the terminals while
the engine is running.
Do not charge the batteries without
disconnecting the terminals first.
Do not push the vehicle to star t the
engine if it is fitted with a 6 -speed
electronic gear control gearbox or an
automatic gearbox.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery
if the vehicle is to be left unused for
more than one month.

Before disconnecting the battery

Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition
before disconnecting the battery.
Close the windows and the doors before
disconnecting the battery.


Following reconnection of the
battery
Following reconnection of the battery, switch on
the ignition and wait 1 minute before star ting to
permit initialisation of the electronic systems.
However, if problems remain following this
operation, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must yourself reinitialise:


- the remote control key,

- the panoramic sunroof blind,

- the GPS satellite navigation system.











Load reduction mode

System which manages the use of cer tain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
cer tain functions, such as the air conditioning,
the heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.

Driving advice


Distribution of loads



)
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 per formance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10 % for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section for details
of the weights and towed loads which apply to
your vehicle.


Side wind



)
Take into account the increased sensitivity
to side wind.



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.


)
To 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.


)
If 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.


Ty r e s



)
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, obser ving the
recommended pressures.



Lighting



)
Check the electrical lighting and signalling
on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
PEUGEOT towbar is used.

Checks





























Checks
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the Maintenance and Warranty Guide and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.


Battery

The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check that the terminals
are clean and correctly tightened,
particularly in summer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery, refer to the "Practical
information" section for details of the precautions to be taken
before disconnecting the battery and following its reconnection.

Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of the
replacement inter vals for these
components.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g. city driving), replace them twice as often
if necessary
(refer to the "Engines" section).
A clogged passenger compar tment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.

Air filter and passenger compartment filter

Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.

Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of
the replacement inter val for this
component.


Oil filter






The presence of this label, in particular with
the Stop & Star t system, indicates the use of
a specific 12 V lead-acid battery with special
technology and specification, for which the
involvement of a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop is required when replacing
or disconnecting the battery.
Failure to obser ve this recommendation may
shor ten the life of the battery.










Particle emission filter (Diesel)

Display of this warning lamp or a specific
message, together with the ser vice warning lamp,
indicates the star t of saturation of the par ticle
filter or low level in the Diesel additive reser voir.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a
speed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
the ser vice warning lamp goes off.
If the ser vice warning lamp stays on,
this indicates a low additive level. Have
the additive reser voir topped up and
the par ticle emission filter ser viced
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
the exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle or
the environment.

operational, or when the locating service has been expressly declined,
the call is dealt with directly by the emergency services (112) without the
vehicle location.

If an impact is detected by the airbag ECU, and independently
of the deployment of any airbags, an emergency call is made
automatically.
