markings on the ground (continuous or
discontinuous line).
S e n s o r s , fi t t e d b e l o w t h e f r o n t b u m p e r ,
trigger a warning if the vehicle drifts
(speed higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)).
This system operates to its full potential
above all when used on motorways and
main roads. The lane departure warning sys-
tem cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the
driver. Deactivation
Press button A again, the indicator
light switches off.
Activation
Press button A , the indicator light
comes on.
Operating fault
If the indicator light on the button switches
off while the system is active, this indi-
cates a malfunction.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
The detection may be disrupted:
- if the sensors are dirty (mud, snow, ...),
- if the markings on the ground are worn,
- if there is little contrast between the markings on the ground and
the road surface.
Detection
You are warned by the vibration of the
driver’s seat cushion:
- on the right-hand side, if the marking
on the ground has been crossed on
the right,
- on the left-hand side, if the marking on the ground has been crossed on
the left.
No warning is transmitted while the
direction indicator is active and for ap-
p r o x i m a t e l y 2 0 s e c o n d s a f t e r t h e d i -
rection indicator is switched off.
A warning may be transmitted if a direc-
tion marking (arrow) or non-standard
m a r k i n g ( g r a f fi t i ) i s c r o s s e d .

in the memory when the ignition is
switched off.

PEUGEOT ).
Reactivation
Press button A again, the warning
light switches off, the system is
reactivated.
Press button A , the warning light
comes on, the system is fully
deactivated. In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered
with mud, ice or snow. When re-
verse gear is engaged, an audible
signal (long beep) indicates that
the sensors may be dirty. If an operating fault occurs, this
warning light is displayed on
the instrument panel and/or a
message appears on the multi-
function display, accompanied by an au-
dible signal (short beep), when reverse
gear is engaged.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
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
T h e m a x i m u m t o w i n g l o a d o n a l o n g
slope depends on the gradient and the
outside temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
Side wind
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.
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. Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.
Tyres
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing 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.
Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest items are as close

Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. Above
1 0 0 0 m e t r e s , t h e m a x i m u m t o w i n g l o a d
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.
Driving with a trailer subjects the towing
v e h i c l e t o m o r e s i g n i fi c a n t s t r e s s a n d i t s
driver must be particularly careful.
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their har-
nesses that have been tested and
approved from the design stage of
