CHANGING A WINDSCREEN WIPER BLADE
Changing a front wiper blade

 Lift the wiper arm.

 Unclip the blade and remove it.

 Fit the new blade.

 Push back the wiper arm.

Note: the shortest blade is fi tted on
the right-hand wiper arm.
Changing the rear wiper blade

 Lift the wiper arm.

 Unclip the blade and remove it.

 Fit the new blade.

 Push back the wiper arm.
ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION
After the engine has stopped, certain
functions (doors, windscreen wipers,
electric windows, courtesy light, audio
equipment, dipped headlamps, etc.)

can only be used for a cumulative
duration of thirty minutes, to prevent
discharging of the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, a
message informing you of the switch
to economy mode appears on the
multifunction display and the active
functions are put on standby.
These functions are reactivated
automatically next time the vehicle is
driven.
To resume the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let
it run for a few minutes.
The time available to you will then be
double the duration for which the en-
gine is left running. However, this pe-
riod will always be between fi ve and
thirty minutes.

Note: if the telephone is being used
when economy mode starts, it will
still be possible to fi nish the call.
A fl at battery will prevent the
engine from starting.
FITTING/REMOVING THE MAT
When removing the mat on the dri-
ver's side, push the seat as far back
as possible and remove the fi xings.
When refi tting, position the mat
correctly on the pins and clip the
fi xings. Check that the mat is secured
correctly.
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedals:
- only use mats suited to the fi xings already present in the
vehicle. It is imperative that these
fi xings are used.
- never fi t one mat on top of another.
Placing the wiper blades in the
special position


Less than a minute after switching
off the ignition, operate the wip-
ers stalk to position the wiper
blades in the centre of the wind-
screen.

To return the windscreen wipers
to their normal position, switch on
the ignition and operate the wipers
stalk.

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, etc.
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their har-
nesses that have been tested and
approved from the design stage of
your vehicle and that the fi tting of the
towbar is entrusted to a PEUGEOT
dealer.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative
that it is fi tted using the electrical
pre-equipment installed at the rear
of the vehicle, in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
Your vehicle is primarily designed
for transporting people and luggage
but it may also be used for towing a
trailer.
Driving with a trailer subjects the tow-
ing vehicle to more signifi cant 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.
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.
On the contrary, use a high gear to
lower the engine speed and 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 cool-
ant temperature.
In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (towing the maximum load
on a steep gradient in high tempera-
tures), switching off the air condition-
ing permits the recovery of engine
power and therefore an increase in
the towing capacity.
If the 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 and of the trailer,
observing the recommended pres-
sures.

Braking: Towing increases the brak-
ing distance.

Lights: Check the electrical signal-
ling on the trailer.

Side wind: Take into account the in-
creased sensitivity to side wind.
FITTING ROOF BARS
When fi tting transverse or longitudi-
nal roof bars, use the accessories
recommended by PEUGEOT and
follow the manufacturer's fi tting in-
structions.
For further information, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

Maximum authorised weight on
the roof bars: 60 kg
Please refer to national legislation in
order to comply with the regula-
tions concerning the transportation of
objects which are longer than the
vehicle.
Driving advice

Distribution of loads: Distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heaviest
items are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight approach-
es the maximum permitted without
exceeding it.
