ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS - EBFD)
The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake force
distribution) systems improve the stability
and manoeuvrability of your vehicle on
braking, in particular on poor or slippery
surfaces.
The ABS prevents locking of the wheels, the
EBFD provides full control of the braking
pressure wheel by wheel.
EMERGENCY BRAKING ASSISTANCE
SYSTEM (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables the
optimum braking pressure to be reached more
quickly, press the pedal irmly without releasing it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake
pedal is activated. This alters the resistance
of the brake pedal under your foot.
To prolong the operation of the emergency
braking assistance system: keep your foot
on the brake pedal.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock. It does not reduce the braking
distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice, oil, etc...)
the ABS may increase the braking distance.
When braking in an emergency, do not
hesitate to press the brake pedal firmly,
without releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able to
continue to manoeuvre the vehicle to avoid
an obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be felt by
slight vibration of the brake pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved.
If this warning light comes on,
it indicates a malfunction of the
ABS which could result in a
loss of control of the vehicle on
braking.
If this warning light comes on,
together with the brake warning
light, it indicates a malfunction of the
electronic brake force distribution
which could result in a loss of
control of the vehicle on braking.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

ACCESSORIES
Towing a trailer
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.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature. Tyres:
check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identification
features" section of chapter 9) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressure.Towbar
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle and that
the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to a
PEUGEOT dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative that it
is fitted using the electrical pre-equipment
installed at the rear of the vehicle and
in accordance with the manufacturer ’s
instructions.
Good practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a steep
slope in high temperatures), the engine
automatically limits its power. In this
case, the automatic cutting off of the air
conditioning allows the engine power to be
recovered.
If the coolant temperature
warning light comes on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 7. 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.
ABS: the system only controls the vehicle,
not the trailer.
Rear parking assistance: the assistance
does not function while the vehicle is towing.

5. FITTING THE SPARE WHEEL
- Put the wheel in place on the hub and start screwing in the bolts by hand.
- Carry out an initial tightening of the bolts using the wheelbrace E.
- Lower the vehicle completely by folding the jack, then remove the jack.
- Tighten the bolts again using the wheelbrace E, tighten them fully without
forcing them.
- Stow the wheel to be repaired at the rear of the vehicle. - Hook the support
H
and screw in the
handle G.
- Insert the socket A
in the hole then
screw in the bolt, using the ratchet
wrench B, to raise the wheel.
- Stow the tools and the trim. The spare wheel is not designed to be used
over long distances. Have the tightening of
the bolts and pressure of the spare wheel
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer without
delay.
Also, have the original wheel repaired and
refitted by a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as
possible.
Never go underneath a vehicle
supported only by a jack (use an axle
stand).
6. REFITTING THE REPAIRED
WHEEL
Refitting of the wheel is identical to step 5,
do not forget to refit the wheel trim.
Refer to the "Identification features"
section of chapter 9 to locate the tyre
label. Changing a wheel

- If a pressure of at least 3 bars is not
reached within 5 minutes, disconnect
the compressor from the valve and the
power socket, then move the vehicle
forward by approximately 10 metres to
distribute the filling fluid inside the tyre.
- Then repeat the inflating operation:
