EMERGENCY BRAKING ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
In an emergency, this system ena-
bles the optimum braking pressure to
be reached more quickly, thus reduc-
i n g t h e s t o p p i n g d i s t a n c e .
It is triggered by the speed at which
t h e b r a k e p e d a l i s a c t i v a t e d . T h e e f -
fect of this is a reduction in the resist-
ance of the pedal and an increase in
b r a k i n g e f i c i e n c y .
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) AND ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE DISTRIBUTION (EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the
electronic brake force distribution,
increases the stability and manoeu-
v r a b i l i t y o f y o u r v e h i c l e o n b r a k i n g ,
in particular on poor or slippery road
s u r f a c e s .
Note: when changing wheels (tyres

a p p r o v e d .
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
t h e r e i s a r i s k o f w h e e l l o c k .
When this warning light
comes on, accompanied
by a buzzer and a mes-
sage, it indicates that there
is a malfunction of the ABS,
which can cause a loss of control of
t h e v e h i c l e w h e n b r a k i n g . When this warning light
comes on, connected to
the
STOP and ABS warn-
ing lights, accompanied by
a buzzer and a message,
it indicates that there is a
malfunction of the electronic brake
force distribution, which can cause
a l o s s o f c o n t r o l o f t h e v e h i c l e w h e n
b r a k i n g .
Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT
d e a l e r .
Normal operation of the ABS may
m a k e i t s e l f f e l t b y s l i g h t v i b r a t i o n s
o f t h e b r a k e p e d a l .
In emergency braking, press

Your vehicle may be equipped with a
spare wheel which has a different rim
to the standard wheel.
After use, it must be replaced as
quickly as possible.
Observe the following instructions to
avoid altering the behaviour of the
vehicle:
-
do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) ,
- d o n o t i t a w h e e l t r i m ,
- drive with care,

Fitting a wheel
Position the wheel using the
centralising tool 5 to assist you.
Tighten the bolts by hand and
remove the centralising tool 5 .
Partly tighten the bolts using the
wheelbrace 1 .
Fold the jack 4 and remove it.
Fully tighten the bolts using the
wheelbrace 1 .
Replace the wheel trim, starting
by placing the wheel trim notch
opposite the valve, and press it
on using the palm of the hand.
Put the corresponding tools in the
holder and secure its cover.
Place the holder on the ground
and align the spare wheel on it.
Pass the notched hook into the
holder cover.

D r i v i n g a d v i c e
D i s t r i b u t i o n o f l o a d s :
Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest items are as close
as possible to the axle and the nose
weight approaches the maximum
permitted without 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 dependent
on the engine speed.
To lower the engine speed, reduce
your speed.
The maximum towing load on a long
slope depends on the gradient and
the outside temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the
coolant temperature.
If the warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible. T y r e s :
check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing
the recommended pressures.
Braking:
towing increases the
braking distance.
Lights: check the electrical
signalling on the trailer.
S i d e w i n d : take into account the
increased sensitivity to side wind.
T O W I N G A T R A I L E R , A
C A R A V A N , A B O A T , E T C . . .
Your vehicle is primarily designed
for transporting people and luggage
but it may also be used for towing a
trailer.
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their
harnesses that have been tested and
approved from the design stage of
y o u r v e h i c l e a n d t h a t t h e i t t i n g o f t h e
towbar is entrusted to a PEUGEOT
dealer.
I f t h e t o w b a r i s n o t i t t e d b y a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative
t h a t i t i s i t t e d u s i n g t h e e l e c t r i c a l
pre-equipment located at the rear of
the vehicle in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Driving with a trailer subjects the
t o w i n g v e h i c l e t o m o r e s i g n i i c a n t
stress and its driver must be
particularly 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 of
altitude.
The rear parking assistance function
will be disarmed automatically when
a t o w b a r i s i t t e d .
