CHANGING A WINDSCREEN WIPER BLADE Placing the wiper blades in the maintenance position Less than one minute after switch-
ing off the ignition, activate thewindscreen wiper stalk to positionthe blades in the centre of thewindscreen (maintenance posi-tion).
Replacing a blade  Lift the arm, then unclip the bladeand remove it.
 Fit the new blade and fold downthe arm.
To park the blades, switch on theignition and operate the wind-screen wiper stalk.
REMOVING A MAT When removing a mat on the driver's or passenger's side, push back theseat as far as possible and removethe clips.
To remove a rear mat, push the corresponding front seat forward andremove the clip. On refitting, position the mat and
tighten the securing clips fully.
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 batterycharge. Reactivation of these functions is automatic, once the battery charge is
sufficient. Note:
at the risk of discharging the
battery, the functions that have been
switched off may be reactivated
manually.
A flat battery prevents the engine from starting.
ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION After the engine has stopped, certain
functions (windscreen wiper, electricwindows, sunroof, rear electric blind,electric seats, audio equipment, tele-phone etc) can only be used for thir-ty minutes, to prevent discharging
the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, the message "Economy mode active"
appears on the multiÐfunction dis-play and the active functions are put
on standby. These functions are automaticallyreactivated next time the vehicle isdriven. Note:
if the telephone is being used
when economy mode starts, it will still be possible to finish the call.

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN,
BOAT ETC...
Only use original PEUGEOT tow bars which have been tested andapproved from the design stage ofyour vehicle. The tow bar must be fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Driving advice Distribution of loads:distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heaviest loads are as close as possible to theaxle and the nose weight is close tothe maximum authorised without,
however, exceeding it. Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.As the fan is electronically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependenton the engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the engine speed, and reduceyour speed. In all cases, pay attention to thecoolant temperature. Note:
in certain cases of particularly
arduous use (towing the maximum load up a steep slope in high tempe-ratures), the engine automatically
limits its power. In this case, cutting
off the air conditioning allows theengine power to be recovered, andtherefore the towing capacity to beincreased. If the coolant temperature warning light comes on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as soon as pos-sible.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures of
the towing vehicle (label on the cen- tral door pillar on the driver's side)and of the trailer towed, observingthe recommended pressure. Brakes: towing increases the bra-
king 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. Lighting Manual adjustmentAdjust your headlamps so as not to dazzle other road users. Check the
electrical signalling of the trailer. Automatic headlamp adjustment (Automatic beam correction) For vehicles with Xenon bulbs, this system automatically corrects theheight of the beam, whatever the
load of the vehicle. The driver isthen assured of having optimum ligh-ting and not causing a nuisance toother road users. In cases of malfunction, the driver is alerted by means of the warning lighton the instrument panel and the sys-tem adjusts your headlamps to thelow position.
