A fl at battery prevents the engine
from starting (refer to the corre-
sponding paragraph).
If the telephone is being used at
this time:
- it will be maintained for 5 minutes with the RD4 audio equipment
hands-free kit,
- it will still be possible to fi n- ish the call with the RT4 GPS
audio/telephone.
ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the duration of
use of certain functions to conserve a
suffi cient level of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio
equipment, windscreen wipers, dipped
headlamps, courtesy lights, etc. for a
maximum combined duration of thirty
minutes. Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated automati-
cally next time the vehicle is driven.

 In order to resume the use of these
functions immediately, start the en-
gine 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 period
will always be between fi ve and thirty
minutes.
Switching to economy mode
Once the thirty minutes are over, a
message appears on the multi-function
display indicating that the vehicle has
switched to economy mode and the ac-
tive functions are put on standby.
CHANGING A WIPER BLADE
Procedure for replacing a worn wiper
blade with a new one without the use
of tools.
Removing a front or rear wiper
blade

 Raise the corresponding wiper arm.

 Unclip the wiper blade and remove it.
Fitting a front or rear wiper
blade

 At the front, check the size of the
wiper blade as the shorter blade is
fi tted on the right-hand side of the
vehicle.

 Put the corresponding new wiper
blade in place and clip it.

 Fold down the wiper arm carefully.

TOWING THE VEHICLE
Procedure for having your vehicle towed
or for towing another vehicle using a re-
movable towing eye.
Access to the tools Towing your vehicle

 On the front bumper, unclip the cov-
er by pressing at the bottom.

 Screw the towing eye in fully.

 Install the towbar.

 Switch on the hazard warning lights
on the towed vehicle.
 On the rear bumper, unclip the cov-
er by pressing at the bottom.

 Screw the towing eye in fully.

 Install the towbar.

 Switch on the hazard warning lights
on the towed vehicle.
Towing another vehicle
The towing eye is installed in the boot
under the fl oor.
To gain access to it:

 open the boot,

 raise the fl oor,

 secure it by hooking its cord on the
hook on the shelf support,

 remove the towing eye from the
holder. When towing with all four wheels
on the ground, always use a tow-
bar.
When towing with only two wheels
on the ground, always use profes-
sional lifting equipment.
When towing with the engine off,
there is no longer any braking or
steering assistance.

 Place the gear lever in neutral
(position N on the "2 Tronic" or
automatic gearbox).
Failure to comply with this special
requirement may result in damage
to certain braking components and
the absence of braking assistance
the next time the engine is started.

TOWING A TRAILER, A
CARAVAN, ETC.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it
may also be used for towing a trailer. Driving advice
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.
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 approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
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.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section for
details of the weights and towing loads
which apply to your vehicle.
Side wind

 Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind. Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.
Tyres

 Check the tyre pressures of the tow-
ing vehicle and of the trailer, observ-
ing the recommended pressures.
Lights

 Check the electrical signalling on
the trailer.
The rear parking assistance will be
deactivated automatically if a gen-
uine PEUGEOT towbar is used.
 If the warning light and the

STOP warning light come
on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as
soon as possible.
Towbar suited to the attachment of a
trailer or caravan with additional signal-
ling and lighting.
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.
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 t-
ting of the towbar is entrusted to a
PEUGEOT dealer.
If the trailer 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. Driving with a trailer subjects the towing
vehicle to more signifi cant stress and its
driver must be particularly careful.
