The electrical system of your vehicle is designed to oper-ate with standard or optional equipment.
Before installing other electri-cal equipment or accessories on your vehicle, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
PEUGEOT will not accept responsi-bility for the cost incurred in repairing your vehicle or for rectifying the mal-functions resulting from the installation of accessories not supplied and not recommended by PEUGEOT and not installed in accordance with its instruc-tions, in particular where the equip-ment in question consumes more than 10 milliamperes.
The maxi-fuses provide additional protection for the electrical systems. All work must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer.

CHANGING A WINDSCREEN
WIPER BLADE
Placing the wiper blades in the maintenance position
 Less than one minute after switch-ing off the ignition, press the wind-screen wiper stalk down once to position the blades at the top of the windscreen (maintenance posi-tion).
ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION
After the engine has stopped, certain functions (windscreen wiper, electric windows, sunroof, electric seats, au-dio equipment, telephone, interior boot light, video, etc) can only be used for a combined duration of approximately thirty minutes, to prevent discharging of the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, a switching to economy mode message appears on the multi-function display and the active functions areput on standby.
These functions are reactivated au-tomatically next time the vehicle is driven.
In order to resume the use of these functions immediately, the engine must be started and left to run for a few minutes.
The time available to you will then be approximately double the duration for which the engine is left running. How-ever, this period will always be be-tween five and thirty minutes.
LOAD REDUCTION FUNCTION
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 battery charge.
Reactivation of these functions is automatic, once the battery charge is sufficient.
Note: at the risk of discharging the battery, the functions that have been switched off may be reactivated manually.
Note: if the telephone is being used when economy mode starts, it will still be possible to finish the call.
A flat battery prevents the en-gine from starting.
Replacing a blade
 Lift the arm, then unclip the blade and remove it.
 Fit the new blade and fold down the arm.
To reposition the blades, switch on the ignition and operate the windscreen wiper stalk.

Disconnecting/Reconnecting the cables
- Raise the locking plate A.- Position the open clip of the cable on the positive (+) terminal of the battery.- Press until the position checking system B tilts.- Lock the clip by lowering the locking plate while pressing on the clip.
To start the vehicle from another battery:
- Connect the red cable to the positive (+) terminals of the two batteries,- Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative (-) termi-nal of the slave battery,- Connect the other end of the green or black cable to an earth point on the broken down vehicle as far as possible from the battery,- Operate the starter, let the engine run.- Wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables.
BATTERY (LOCATED IN THE
ENGINE COMPARTMENT)
To charge the battery using a battery charger:
- Disconnect the battery,- Follow the instructions for use given by the battery charger manufacturer,- Reconnect starting with the negative (-) terminal,- Check that the terminals and con-nectors are clean. If they are cov-ered with sulphate (white or greenish deposit), disconnect them and clean them.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery if the vehicle is not to be used for a period of more than one month.
Do not force the plate as lock-ing is not possible if the clip is not positioned correctly.
Start the procedure again.

Before disconnecting the bat-tery, you must wait for 2 min-utes after switching off the ig-nition.
Never disconnect a terminal when the engine is running.
Never charge a battery without first disconnecting the terminals.
Open the windows and close the sun-roof before disconnecting the battery. If they do not operate normally following reconnection of the battery, they must be reinitialised (see sections "Reini-tialisation of the electric windows" and "Sunroof").
After every reconnection of the battery, switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute before starting to allow the electronic systems to be initialised. However, if slight difficulties are experienced after this, please contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
On the 2.7 litre 24V HDI engine, if there is no battery in the boot, do not connect a slave battery to the positive (+) and negative (-) termi-nals under the bonnet as a short circuit may occur.
The batteries contain harmful substances such as sulphu-ric acid and lead. They must be disposed of in accordance with regulations and must never be discarded with household waste.
Take used batteries to an approved collection point.
 open the bonnet,
 use the two additional positive (+) and negative (-) terminals located under the bonnet,
 open the red cover of the positive (+) terminal,
 connect the red cable between the positive (+) terminal and the positive (+) terminal of the slave battery,
 connect the green or black cable between the negative (-) terminal and the negative (-) terminal of the slave battery,
 operate the starter, let the engine run,
 wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables,
 close the red cover of the positive (+) terminal,
 refit the left side cover,
 close the bonnet.

TOWING YOUR VEHICLE
Without lifting (4 wheels on the ground)
You must always use a towbar.
The removable towing eye is inside the spare wheel.
From the rear:
Unclip the cover, pulling the upper rib towards you,
 Screw in the towing eye as far as it will go.
Special features of the automatic gearbox
Lifting (2 wheels only on the ground)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle with a professional lifting device. When towing with the engine switched off, there is no braking or steering assistance.
From the front:
Unclip the left part of the cover,
 Screw in the towing eye as far as it will go.
Towing a vehicle with an automatic gearbox in reverse gear is prohibited (absence of lubrication).
When being towed with all four wheels on the ground, it is imperative that the following rules are obeyed:
- selector lever in position N,- the vehicle must be towed at a speed of less than 30 mph (50 km/h) over a maximum distance of 30 miles (50 km),- do not add oil to the gearbox.

In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature.Brakes: towing increases the braking 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.
TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...
We recommend the use of original PEUGEOT towbars which have been tested and approved from the design stage of your vehicle and that the towbar is fitted by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads: distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviestloads 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 electrically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
Note: in certain cases of particularly arduous use (towing the maximum load in high temperatures), the engine automatically limits its power and selects the appropriate automatic gearbox gear in manual mode. In this case, cutting off the air conditioning allows the engine power to be recovered, and therefore the towing capacity to be increased.
If the coolant temperature warning light comes on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle (label on the central door pillar on the driver’s side) and of the trailer towed, observing the recommended pressure.
