An indication reminds you which type of fuel to use. When you fill your tank, do not con-
tinue after the third cut-off of the
pump. This could cause your vehicleto malfunction. The capacity of the tank is approximately 55 litres for petrolengines and 60 litres for Dieselengines. After filling the tank, lock the cap.
When the cap is removed, the right-hand sliding sidedoor cannot be opened.
The key cannot be removed fromthe lock until the cap has beenreplaced on the fuel tank.

ing light, accompanied byan audible signal (while the
vehicle is moving), indicates that thehandbrake is still applied or has not
been released fully. ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)
The ABS with Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBFD) increasesthe stability and manoeuvrability ofyour vehicle, particularly on poor orslippery road surfaces. Note: when changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that these are approved. The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically whenthere is a risk of wheel lock. Illumination of this warning light, accompanied by an audible signal,indicates a malfunction of the elec-tronic brake force distribution, whichcan cause a loss of control of thevehicle when braking.

PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
AIR BAGS
The air bags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occu-pants in the event of serious colli-
sions. They work in conjunction withthe pretensioning seat belts. The electronic detectors register and analyse any abrupt decelerationof the vehicle: if the triggeringthreshold is reached, the air bagsinflate instantly and protect theoccupants of the vehicle. Immediately after the impact, the air bags deflate rapidly so that they donot hinder the visibility of the occu-pants nor their exit if necessary fromthe vehicle. The air bags are not deployed in the case of collisions which are not seri-
ous, for which the seat belt is suffi-cient to ensure maximum protection.The seriousness of a collisiondepends on the nature of the obsta-cle and the speed of the vehicle atthe moment of the collision. Air bags only operate when the ignition is switched on. Note:
the gas escaping from the air
bags can be a minor irritant.

In the
"OFF" position, the passen-
ger air bag will not be triggered in the event of an impact. As soon as the child seat is removed, turn the air bag slot to the"ON" position to re-activate the air
bag and thus ensure the safety ofyour passenger in the event of animpact. Operating check This is confirmed by an indicator light, accompanied by an audiblesignal.
With the ignition on (2ndnotch), illumination of thiswarning light accompaniedby an audible signal, indi-cates that the passenger
air bag is disarmed (switch in the"OFF" position). SIDE AIR BAGS* These are incorporated into the frame of the front seat backs, on thedoor side. They are deployed independently of each other depending on which sidethe collision occurs, in collisionswhich could cause injury to thechest, the abdomen or the head. Air bag fault
If this warning light comes on, accompanied by anaudible signal, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer to havethe system checked.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION103

TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, BOAT etc.
Only use original PEUGEOT tow bars that have been tested andapproved from the design stage ofyour vehicle. The tow bar must be fitted 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.
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum
towing load must be reduced by 10 %
and so on for every 1 000 metres ofaltitude.Driving advice Distribution of loads:
Distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to theaxle and the nose weight approachesthe maximum permitted withoutexceeding 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 slope depends on the gradient andthe outside 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 and of the
trailer, observing the recommendedpressures. Braking: Towing increases the braking
distance. Lights: Check the electrical signalling
on the trailer. Side wind: Take into acount the
increased sensitivity to side wind.
