2001 Peugeot Partner VU Owner's Manual

Towbar The installation of a towbar should be carried out by an approved dealer who will know the towing capacity of your
vehicle and have the necessary information on the fitting of such a safety related item. The dealer will also be aware
of any modifications to the vehicleÕs cooling system needed to cater for any arduous towing conditions.
Towing (boat, caravan, etc.)
¥ Before setting off :- check the tyre pressures of both the vehicle and the towed load and check the signalling lamps on the towed load.
- practise manoeuvring, especially reversing.
- regularly grease the towball hitch, remove it when not required.
¥ Spread the load inside the caravan and keep within the weight limits.
¥ Always drive at a moderate speed, Change down to a lower gear in good time before going uphill and downhill. Be aware of the effect of side winds.
¥ Towing increases fuel consumption.
¥ Braking distances are increased. Use the brakes gently and progressively. Avoid harsh braking.
¥ When parking on a slope: as well as following the instructions for operation of the handbrake, make sure that the towbar is properly locked and use wheel chocks if necessary.

* Any other tyres are forbidden. Advice and Recommendations
For your safety, it is essential that the tyres are in good condition.
Ensure that the tyre pressures, including the spare, are maintained at the recommended pressures. They should be
checked regularly, once a month for example, and before every long journey. The pressures should only be checkedwhen the tyres are coldas pressure increases as the tyre temperature increases with driving.
Never reduce the pressure of a warm tyre.
Snow chains must only be fitted to the front wheels
