Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains
improve traction as well as the
behaviour of the vehicle when
braking.
Snow chains must be fitted only to the
front wheels. They must never be fitted to
"space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force in
your country on the use of snow chains
and the maximum authorised speed.
Installation tips
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face on the side
of the road.

top your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened. It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and the
road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted with
alloy wheels, check that no part of the
chain or its fixings is in contact with the
wheel rim.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:

You can also use snow socks.
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Towing device
Load distribution
F D istribute 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. The maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10
% for every
1,000
metres of altitude.
Use towing devices and their original
harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. It
is recommended that the installation be
per formed by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towing device is not fitted by
a PEUGEOT dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Certain driving assistance or manoeuvring
assistance functions are automatically
deactivated if an approved towbar is used.

Automatic electronic
parking brake
This system does not require any
routine servicing. However, in case
of an issue, do not hesitate to have
the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
For more information on the Automatic
electronic parking brake , refer to the
corresponding section.
Wheels and tyres
The pressure must be checked on
all tyres, including the spare wheel,
when the tyres are "cold", at least
once a month and before a long
j o u r n ey. Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces
braking efficiency and control of the vehicle's
steering. Regular inspections of the condition
of tyres (tread and sides) and rims are
recommended as well as making sure that
valves are fitted.
Using different size wheels and tyres from
those specified can affect the lifetime of tyres,
wheel rotation, ground clearance and the
speedometer reading and have an adverse
effect on road holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause unwanted ESC regulation.
The pressures given on the tyre pressure label
are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven for
more than 10 minutes or more than 6 miles
(10

kilometres) at more than 31 mph (50 km/h),
0.3

bar (30 kPa) should be added to the values
given on the label.
Under-inflation increases fuel consumption.
Non-compliant tyre pressure causes premature
wear on tyres and has an adverse effect on the
vehicle's road holding – Risk of an accident! Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without
adversely affecting the per formance or fuel
consumption of Diesel engines, PEUGEOT
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with a system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a Diesel particle filter
(DPF) for the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR system
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of
the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
The AdBlue
® is contained in
a special tank holding about
17


litres.
Its capacity allows a driving range of
approximately 5,600

miles (9,000 km), highly
dependent on your driving style.
An alert system is triggered automatically once
the reser ve level is reached: you can then drive
for a further 1,500

miles (2,400 km) before the
tank is empty.

Identification markings
Different visible markings for the identification
and localisation of your vehicle.
A. Vehicle identification number (VIN),
under the bonnet.
This number is engraved on the chassis near
the right-hand front wheel arch.
B. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on
the windscreen lower cross member.
This number is recorded on a label, visible
through the windscreen.
C. Manufacturer's label.
This self-destroying label on the middle door pillar, right
or left-hand side, contains the following information:
-
t
he name of the manufacturer,
-

t
he European Whole Vehicle Type Approval number,
-

t
he vehicle identification number (VIN),
-

t
he maximum authorised weight (gross vehicle
weight),
-

t
he maximum authorised weight with trailer (gross
train weight),
-

t
he maximum weight on the front axle,
-

t
he maximum weight on the rear axle.
D. Tyre/paint label.
This label on the middle door pillar, driver's
side, contains the following information:
-
t
he tyre pressures, unladen and laden,
-

t
he tyre sizes (including the load index and
speed rating),
-

t
he spare tyre inflation pressure,
-

t
he paint colour code. The vehicle may be originally equipped
with tyres with higher load and speed
indices than those indicated on the label,
without affecting inflation pressure.
