CHANGING A WINDSCREEN
WIPER BLADE
Placing the wiper blades in the
maintenance position
Less than one minute after switch
ing off the ignition, activate the
windscreen wiper stalk to position
the blades in the centre of the
windscreen (maintenance posi
tion).
Replacing a blade Lift the arm, then unclip the blade
and remove it.
Fit the new blade and fold down
the arm.
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, electric
windows, sunroof, rear electric blind,
electric seats, audio equipment, tele
phone etc) can only be used for thir
ty minutes, to prevent discharging
the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, the
message "Economy mode active"
appears on the multi–function dis
play and the active functions are put
on standby.
REMOVING A MAT
When removing a mat on the driver's
or passenger's side, push back the
seat as far as possible and remove
the clips.
To remove a rear mat, push the cor
responding front seat forward and
remove the clip.
On refitting, position the mat and
press firmly to refit the securing clips.
LOAD REDUCTION
When driving, certain functions
(heated rear screen, heating system
for passenger compartment of diesel
vehicles, etc.) may be switched off
temporarily, depending on the level
of battery charge.
Reactivation of the functions on
standby is automatic, as soon as the
battery permits.
These functions are automatically
reactivated next time the vehicle is
driven.
Note:
if the telephone is being used
when economy mode starts, it will
still be possible to finish the call.

BATTERY
Vehicles fitted with a single battery
To charge the battery using a battery charger:
Remove the style cover to gain access to the battery,
Disconnect the battery. Follow the instructions for use given by the
battery charger manufacturer.
Reconnect the battery, starting with the negative ( ) terminal ,
Check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are co vered with
sulphate (whitish or greenish deposit), disconnect them and clea n them,
Refit the style cover.
To start the vehicle from another battery: Remove the style cover to gain access to the battery,
Connect the red cable to the positive (+) terminals of both ba tteries,
Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negati ve ( ) terminal of the
slave battery,
Connect the other end of the green or black cable to an ea rth point on the
broken down vehicle, as far as possible from the battery,
Start the engine and let it run,
Wait for the engine to return to idle then disconnect the cables,
Refit the style cover.
– Never disconnect a ter
minal when the engine
is running.
– Never charge a battery without first disconnect
ing the terminals.
– Close the windows and sunroof fully before disconnecting the
battery.
– After every disconnection of the battery, switch on the ignition
and wait for 1 minute before
starting, to allow the electronic
systems to be initialised. How
ever, if slight difficulties are
experienced after this, please
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
If electrical work is carried
out, disconnect the starter battery.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery if the vehicle is
not to be used for a period of more than one month.
Vehicles fitted with
two batteries*
Certain vehicles, depending on the
country where the vehicle is sold, are
fitted with two batteries:
– a battery for starting, located in the engine compartment,
– a service battery, located in the boot.
The starter battery has a label show
ing that the service battery* is in the
boot.
These are special batteries.
If one of them is replaced, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
To charge the starter battery with
a battery charger:
remove the style cover to gain
access to the starter battery,
disconnect the battery.
Follow the instructions for use
given by the battery charger
manufacturer,
reconnect the battery, starting with
the negative (–) terminal,
check that the t erminals and the
connectors are clean. If they are
covered with sulphate (whitish or
greenish deposit), disconnect and
clean them,
refit the style cover. To start the vehicle from another
battery:
remove the style cover to gain
access to the starter battery,
remove the maxi fuse located
near to the starter battery,
connect the red cable to the posi
tive (+) terminals of the two batter
ies,
connect one end of the green or
black cable to the negative ( ) ter
minal of the additional battery,
connect the other end of the green
or black cable to an earth point on
the vehicle which has broken
down, as far as possible from the
battery,
start the engine and let it run,
wait for the engine to return to idle
then disconnect the cables,
drive a few kilometres in order to
recharge the starter battery, then
replace the maxi fuse near to it,
refit the style cover.
To recharge the service battery,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
* According to country.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION
152
If electrical operations are
carried out, disconnect the starter battery and remove the maxi fuse located next to it.
It is advisable to disconnect the starter battery and remove the
maxi fuse located next to it, if the vehicle is not to be used for a
period of more than one month.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION 153
Special features of the
automatic gearbox
When towing with four wheels on the
ground, the following rules must be
obeyed:
– lever in position
N,
– tow the vehicle at less than 30 mph (50 km/h) over a maximum
distance of 30 miles (50 km).
– do not add oil to the gearbox.
TOWING YOUR VEHICLE
Without lifting (4 wheels on the road)
You should always use a tow bar.
The towing eye is inside the spare wheel.
From the front:
Unclip the bottom of the cover, using the flat part of th e towing eye.
Screw in the towing eye until it locks.
From the rear: Unclip the top of the cover using the flat part of the to wing eye,
Screw in the towing eye until it locks.
Lifting (2 wheels only on the road )
It is preferable to raise the vehicle by the wheels.
Never use the radiator crossmember.
ParticularitŽs de la bo”te de vitesses automatique
When towing with the
engine switched off,
there is no braking assis
tance.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION
154
T
OWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, BOAT ETC...
Only use original PEUGEOTtow
bars which have been tested and
approved from the design stage of
your vehicle.
The tow bar must be fitted by a
PEUGEOTdealer.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads: distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heaviest
loads are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight is close to
the maximum authorised without,
however, exceeding it.
Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electronically con
trolled, its cooling capacity is not
dependent on the engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to
lower the engine speed, and reduce
your speed. In all cases, pay attention to the
coolant temperature.
Note:
in certain cases of particularly
arduous use (towing the maximum
load up a steep slope in high tem
peratures), the engine automatically
limits its power. In this case, cutting
off the air conditioning allows the
engine power to be recovered, and
therefore the towing speed to be sig
nificantly increased (approximately
12mph [20 km/h] more).
If the coolant temperature warning
light comes on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as soon as pos
sible.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures of
the towing vehicle and of the trailer,
observing the recommended pres
sure.
Brakes: towing increases the brak
ing distance. Drive at a moderate
speed, change down early and brake
gradually.
Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed. Lighting
Manual adjustment
Adjust your headlamps so as not to
dazzle other road users (see section
on ''Manual adjustment of head
lamps''). Check the electrical sig
nalling of the trailer.
Automatic beam correction
For vehicles with Xenon bulbs, this
system automatically corrects the
height of the beam, whatever the
load of the vehicle. The driver is then
assured of having optimum lighting
and not causing a nuisance to other
road users.
In cases of malfunction, the driver is
alerted by means of the warning light
on the instrument panel.
In this situation the system adjusts
your headlamps to the low position.
