Vents
"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion
of hot or cool air in the passenger
compartment, there are adjustable
central and side vents which can
be directed sideways (right or left)
or vertically (up or down). For your
comfort while driving, do not close
them and direct the flow of air towards
the windows instead.
Air vents in the footwells and directed
towards the windscreen complete the
equipment.
Do not block the vents located at the
windscreen or the air extractor located
in the boot.
Dust filter, odour filter
(activated carbon)
This filter traps certain dust and limits
odours.
Ensure that this filter is in good
condition and have all of the filter
elements replaced regularly.
Refer to the "Checks" section of
chapter 7.
Air conditioning
In all seasons, the air conditioning
should only be used with the
windows closed. However, if the
interior temperature remains high
after a prolonged period parked in
the sun, first ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes.

o
mode as much as
possible as it permits optimised
control of all of the functions: air flow,
passenger compartment comfort
temperature, air distribution, air
intake mode or air recirculation in the
passenger compartment.
o

perate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in good working order.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a P
eugeo T
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Automatic mode: visibility
programme
The comfort programme (A
u
T
o

) may
not be sufficient to quickly demist or
defrost the windows (humidity, several
passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility
programme. The visibility programme
indicator comes on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air
flow and provides optimum distribution
of the ventilation to the windscreen and
side windows.
It deactivates the air recirculation. It is normal that the condensation
created by the air conditioning system
results in a flow of water which may
form a puddle under the vehicle when
parked.

towing a trailer
good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep slope in high temperatures), the
engine automatically limits its power.
In this case, the air conditioning is
automatically cut off to save engine
power.
tyres
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer

, observing the
recommended pressures. Chapter 7, "Levels" section.If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible. Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change
down early and brake gradually.
towbar
We recommend the use of genuine
P
eugeo T towbars and their wiring
harnesses, which have been tested
and approved from the design stage of
your vehicle, and that you entrust the
fitting of this equipment to a PEUGEOT
dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a
P
eugeo T dealer, it is imperative that
it is fitted using the electrical pre-
equipment installed at the rear of the
vehicle and in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
In accordance with the general
instructions a reminder of which has
been given above, we draw your
attention to the risk associated with
fitting a towbar or electrical accessory
not recommended by P
eugeo T.
Fitting such equipment could result in
the failure of your vehicle's electronic
system. Please obtain information from
the Manufacturer before fitting this type
of equipment.
Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased.
Drive smoothly and at a moderate
speed.
ABS/DSC
The ABS or DSC systems only control
the vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.
Parking sensors
The rear parking sensors system does
not function while the vehicle is towing.

markings" section.

Carbon filter and passenger compartment filterParticle filter (Diesel)
Maintenance of the particle filter must
be carried out by a Peugeo T dealer.
o

n acceleration after the vehicle has
been running for a prolonged period
at very low speed or at idle, you may,
in exceptional circumstances, notice
the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust. This water vapour does not
have any adverse effect on vehicle
handling or the environment.
Battery
At the start of summer or winter, have
your battery checked by a P eugeo T
dealer or a qualified workshop.
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.
u

nless there is a leak on the circuit, a
drop in the brake fluid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.
Brake disc / drum wear
For information on checking the brake
disc / drum wear, contact a P eugeo T
dealer.
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
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
oil filter
Change the filter regularly in
accordance with the manufacturer's
servicing schedule.
An access flap allows replacement of
the filters.
The carbon filter permits continuous
and effective filtering of dust.
If the passenger compartment filter
becomes blocked, this may reduce the
performance of the air conditioning
system and generate unpleasant
odours.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment filter. By
means of its second special active
filter, it contributes to the purification
of the air breathed by the occupants
and the cleanness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
Refer to theservicing and warranty
booklet for the replacement interval for
these components. Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the
vehicle (urban driving...), change them
twice as often if necessary.
