Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the
bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof
bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). u
s
e a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on
maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in
the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-

b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter,
passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of
operations recommended in the warranty and maintenance record.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to
avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to
a consistent average.

With the ignition on or the engine running, to
release the parking brake, press the brake
pedal , pull then release control lever A .
th

e full release of the parking brake is
confirmed by:
Manual release
- the braking warning lamp and the P warning lamp in the control
lever A going of f,
-

d
isplay of the message "Parking
brake of f ".
If you pull the control lever A without pressing
the brake pedal, the parking brake will not
be released and a message appears in the
instrument panel. If necessary, you can make a maximum
application
of the parking brake. It is obtained
by means of a long pull on control lever A,
until you see the message "Parking brake
applied fully" and an audible signal is heard.
Maximum application is essential:
-
i
n the case of a vehicle towing a caravan
or a trailer, if the automatic functions are
activated but you are applying the parking
brake manually,
-
w
hen the slope you are parked on may
vary (e.g. on a ferry, on a lorry, during
towing).
Maximum application
Before leaving the vehicle, check that
parking brake warning lamps in the
instrument panel and in the control
lever A are on fixed (not flashing).
Never leave a child alone inside the
vehicle with the ignition on, as they
could release the parking brake.
Automatic application,
engine off
- illumination of the braking warning lamp and of the P warning lamp in
the control lever A ,
-

d
isplay of the message "Parking
brake on".
With the vehicle stationary, the parking brake
is automatically applied when the engine is
switched off
.
th

e application of the parking brake is
confirmed by:
In the case of towing, a loaded vehicle
or parking on a gradient, make a
maximum application of the parking
brake then turn the front wheels
towards the pavement and engage a
gear when you park.
After a maximum application, the
release time will be longer.

obstacle is detected in front and the speed of
the vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).
th
e front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than three seconds
in for ward gear, if no further obstacles are
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
Front parking sensors
the function will be deactivated

towing a trailer
We recommend the use of genuine
PeugeOt towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved
from the design stage of your vehicle,
and that the fitting of the towbar is
entrusted to a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a
P
e

uge
Ot
dealer, it is imperative that it
is fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
to

wbar suitable for the attachment of a
trailer or installation of a bicycle carrier, with
additional lighting and signalling.Blanking cover
When towing, you must remove the blanking
cover if your vehicle has one.
Contact a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer or a qualified
workshop for this. Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it may
also be used for towing a trailer.

Driving advice
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.
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 l
ower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
th

e 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.
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 a void overheating of the brakes on a long
mountain type of descent, 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.
th

e rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
P
e

uge
Ot
towbar is used.
Refer to the "
te

chnical data" section for details
of the weights and towed loads which apply to
your vehicle.
