Observe the driving regulations and remain 
vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and keep 
your hands on the wheel so that you are 
ready to react at any time to any eventuality.
On a long journey, a break every two hours 
is strongly recommended.
In difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate 
the need to brake and increase the distance 
from other vehicles.
driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on 
flooded roads, as this could cause serious 
damage to the engine or gearbox, as well as 
to the electrical systems of your vehicle. If you are obliged to drive through water:
-
 
check that the depth of water does not
  
exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves 
that might be generated by other users,
-  
deactivate the Stop & Start system,
-
  
drive as slowly as possible without
  
stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 
6   mph (10 km/h),
-
 
do not stop and do not switch of
 f the 
engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as 
circumstances allow, make several light 
brake applications to dry the brake discs and 
pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, 
contact a P
euge O t
 dealer or a qualified
  
workshop.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied -   
Risk of overheating and damage to the 
braking system!
Do not park or run the engine when 
stationary in areas where inflammable 
substances and materials (dry grass, dead 
leaves...) might come into contact with the 
hot exhaust system - Risk of fire!
Never leave a vehicle unsupervised with 
the engine running. If you have to leave 
your vehicle with the engine running, apply 
the parking brake and put the gearbox into 
neutral.

Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style of 
driving, in particular for vehicles which are 
used in town, over short distances. It may 
be necessary to check the thickness of the 
pads, even between services.
Brake disc wear
For any information on checking the brake 
disc wear, contact a P euge O t
 dealer or a
  
qualified workshop.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great 
or there is a reduction in the performance 
of the system, the parking brake should be 
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a P
euge O t
 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
If this warning lamp comes on,
 
have the brake pad wear checked 
by a P
euge
O
t
 dealer or a
 
qualified workshop. In order to avoid damaging the 
electrical units, we strongly advise you 
not to use high pressure washing to clean 
the engine compartment.
After washing the vehicle dampness, or in 
winter, ice may form on the brake discs and 
pads: braking efficiency may be reduced. 
Make some light brake applications to dry 
and de-ice the brakes. Only use products recommended by 
P euge O t
 or products of equivalent quality
  
and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units as 
important as the braking system, P euge O t
 
selects and of
 fers specific products.
Change the filter regularly, in accordance 
with the manufacturer's servicing schedule.

In each country, it is imperative that the towed loads authorised by 
local legislation are complied with. 
to find out your vehicle's towing
 
capacities and its gross train weight, consult a franchised dealer.
t
he maximum authorised speed is reduced when towing (comply 
with the legislation in force in your country).
With load transfer, the braked trailer weight can be increased, 
on condition that the equivalent of this load is removed from the 
vehicle so that the 
gt W is not exceeded. Warning: towing with a 
lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road 
holding.
t
he  gt W and towed load values indicated are valid up to a 
maximum altitude of 1000 metres; the towed load mentioned must 
be reduced by 10 % for each additional 1000 metres.
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the 
performance of the vehicle in order to protect the engine; when the 
ambient temperature is higher than 37 °C, limit the towed weight.
t
he kerb weight is equal to the weight without load + 
driver
  (75   kg)   + fuel tank filled to 90%. Before towing a trailer, check 
that:
-
 
the nose weight on the
  
towbar ball does not exceed 
the value (S) indicated on 
the trailer's weights plate,
