The electrical system of your
vehicle is designed to oper-
ate with standard or optional
equipment.
Before installing other electrical equip-
ment 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
ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION
After the engine has stopped, certain
electrical functions can be used for a
maximum duration of approximately
one hour, to prevent discharging of the
battery.
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
s u f fi c i e n t .
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
fi n i s h t h e c a l l .
A fl a t b a t t e r y p r e v e n t s t h e
engine 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. Once the hour is over, a switching to
economy mode message appears
on the multi-function display and the
active functions are put on standby.
These functions are reactivated auto-
matically 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.
However, this period will always be
b e t w e e n fi v e a n d t h i r t y m i n u t e s .
T h i s t i m e m a y b e s i g n i fi c a n t l y
reduced if the battery charge
is low.
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
position).

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 (-) ter-
minal 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 manu-
facturer,
- Reconnect starting with the nega- tive (-) terminal,
- Check that the terminals and connec- tors are clean. If they are covered 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 locking
is not possible if the clip is not
positioned correctly.
Start the procedure again.

Before disconnecting the battery,
you must wait for 2 minutes after
switching off the ignition.
Never disconnect a terminal
when the engine is running.
N e v e r c h a r g e a b a t t e r y w i t h o u t fi r s t
disconnecting the terminals.
Open the windows and close the
sunroof before disconnecting the bat-
tery. If they do not operate normally
following reconnection of the battery,
they must be reinitialised (see para-
graphs "Reinitialisation 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,
i f s l i g h t d i f fi c u l t i e s a r e e x p e r i e n c e d
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 sulphuric
acid and lead.
They must be disposed of in accordance
with regulations and must never be dis-
carded 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,
r e fi t t h e l e f t s i d e c o v e r ,
close the bonnet. BATTERY (LOCATED IN THE BOOT) *

The battery is in the left boot trim.
To charge the battery using a bat-
tery charger (boot open):
fold down the panel to gain access
to the battery,
disconnect the battery,
follow the instructions for use given
by the battery charger manufacturer,
reconnect starting with the nega-
tive (-) terminal,
raise the panel and close it.
To start the vehicle from another
battery:

TOWING YOUR VEHICLE
From the rear:
Unclip the cover, pulling the upper
rib towards you,
Screw in the towing eye as far as it
will go.
Special featuresof 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 bra-
king 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 auto-
matic 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.
Without lifting (4 wheels on the ground)
You must always use a towbar.
The removable towing eye is inside
the spare wheel.

In all cases, pay attention to the cool-
ant 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 tow-

Driving advice
Distribution of loads: distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heavi-
est loads 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 in-
creases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
Note: in certain cases of par-
ticularly arduous use (towing
the maximum load in high
temperatures), the engine au-
tomatically 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 in-
creased.
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 recom-
mended pressure.
