CHANGING A WINDSCREEN WIPER BLADE Placing the wiper blades in the maintenance position Within one minute of switching
off the ignition, activate the wind-screen wiper stalk to position theblades in the centre of the wind-screen (maintenance position).
Replacing a blade Lift the arm, then unclip the blade and remove it.
Fit the new blade and fold downthe arm.
Note: the shortest blade is fitted to
the wiper arm on the right side of thevehicle.
To park the blades, switch on the ignition and operate the wind-screen wiper stalk. ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION After the engine has stopped, certain
functions (windscreen wiper, electricwindows, sunroof*, courtesy lights,audio equipment etc.) can only beused for a total time of thirty minutes,
to prevent discharging the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, the message
"Economy mode active"
appears on the multifunction displayand the active functions are put on
standby.
To resume use of these functions, start the engine and allow it to run fora few seconds.
WARNING: a flat battery will prevent
the engine from starting. LOAD REDUCTION 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 switched off
may be reactivated manually.

TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, BOAT ETC.
Only use original PEUGEOT tow bars that have been tested andapproved from the design stage of
your vehicle. The tow bar must be fit-
ted by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Your vehicle is basically designed for transporting people and luggage but
it may also be used for towing a trailer. Driving with a trailer subjects the towing vehicle to more significantstress and its driver must be particu-larly careful. Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine performance. The maximum towing load must be reduced by 10% for every 1000 metresof altitude.Driving advice Distribution of loads Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as pos-sible to the axle and the nose weightapproaches the maximum permittedwithout exceeding it. Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature of the coolant. As the fan is electrically 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. The maximum towing load on a long climb depends on the incline and theexterior temperature. In all cases pay attention to the coolant temperature. If the warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the engineas soon as possible.Tyres Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle, observing the recom-mended pressures. Braking
Towing increases the braking distance. Lights Check the electrical signalling on the
trailer. Side wind
Take into acount the increased sen- sitivity to side wind.
