PRACTICAL INFORMATION
The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric
acid and lead. They must be
disposed of in accordance with
regulations and must not, in any
circumstances, be discarded
with household waste.
Take used remote control bat-
teries and vehicle batteries to a
special collection point.
Charging the battery using a
battery charger
Disconnect the battery from the
vehicle.
Remove the battery and place it in a
ventilated area.
Remove the top-up caps and top
up the level with distilled water if ne-
cessary.
Connect the battery to the charger
observing the instructions for use
provided by the manufacturer and
start charging.
Disconnect the battery from the
charger and let it to cool.
If necessary, top up the level with
distilled water.
Clean the top of the battery care-
fully.
Put the top-up caps back in place.
Check that the terminals and
connectors are clean. If they are
covered with sulphate (whitish or
greenish deposit), remove them
and clean them.
Reconnect the battery starting with
the positive terminal (+). It is advisable to disconnect the
battery if the vehicle is to be left
unused for more than one month.
Do not disconnect the terminals
while the engine is running.
Do not charge the batteries with-
out disconnecting the terminals
fi r s t .
Avoid prolonged contact of the
electrolyte with the skin.
M o s t o f t h e s e fl u i d s a r e h a r m f u l
to health and very corrosive. When charging the battery, it is
normal to observe an increase
in temperature and bubbling of
the electrolyte.
Before disconnecting the battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the igni-
tion before disconnecting the battery.
Close the windows, the sunroof, the
doors and the tailgate before disconnect-
ing the battery.
Following reconnection
of the battery
Following reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute
before starting to permit initialisation of
the electronic systems. However, if slight
d i f fi c u l t i e s a r e e n c o u n t e r e d f o l l o w i n g t h i s
operation, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Referring to the corresponding section,
you must yourself reinitialise:
- the one-touch electric windows,
- the sunroof,
- the satellite navigation system.

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 tow-
ing vehicle and of the trailer, observ-
ing the recommended pressures.
Lighting
Check the lighting and signalling on
the trailer.
If this message is dis-
played, stop your ve-
hicle as soon as it is
safe to do so.

Opening of the lower tailgate is
prohibited if a towbar is being
used.
We recommend the use of genu-
ine PEUGEOT towbars and their
harnesses that have been tested
and approved from the design
stage of your vehicle and that the

turer's instructions.
Driving with a trailer subjects the
t o w i n g v e h i c l e t o m o r e s i g n i fi -
cant stress and its driver must
be particularly careful.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it
may also be used for towing a trailer.
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
load must be reduced by 10 % of the
GTW and so on for every 1 000 metres
of altitude.

details of the weights and towing loads
which apply to your vehicle.

NAVIGATION - GUIDANCE NAVIGATION - GUIDANCE
What is the navigation system and
the GPS?
The satellite navigation system guides
the driver to the destination that he has
set in accordance with a chosen route.
Initially, it searches for the destination
required by the user, then it calculates
t h e r o u t e a n d fi n a l l y i t p r o v i d e s t h e v i s u a l
and audible guidance instructions. What precautions should be
observed in order to make best use
of the system?
Do not place anything on or near the
GPS aerial.
Do not use any digital communication
equipment (personal computers, etc.)
near the GPS aerial.
D o n o t a f fi x a n y r e fl e c t i v e fi l m s o r fi l m s
containing carbon to the windows.
The GPS (Global Position-
ing System) consists of
several satellites distributed
around the earth. They con-
tinuously transmit digital sig-
nals which travel at the speed of light,
on 2 different frequencies.
At any given time, the system receives
its position in relation to the satellites
detected and the time of transmission
of the signal.
This enables the telematic unit to cal-
culate its position and therefore that of
the vehicle.
A repositioning process using the map
database stored on the hard disk allows
the vehicle to be positioned on the road
network, so improving the accuracy of
the vehicle location function. What is a point of interest (POI)?
Up to 40 different icons may
be displayed (refer to the
section "Points of interest
icon").
T h e y a r e c l a s s i fi e d i n 5 g r o u p s a n d

- Vehicles and travel (Dark blue),
- Restaurants (Orange),
- Public places and emergency servi- ces (Brown),
- Entertainment and attractions (Blue).
GPS
The system's measurements may be
inaccurate if the vehicle is:
- in a tunnel or underground car park,
- underneath a two-level motorway,
- in an area with several very high buildings,
- surrounded by closely planted trees.
Depending on the vehicle's situation
and the reception of the GPS informa-
tion, the displayed information may dis-
appear from the screen temporarily. A point of interest (POI) is
represented by an icon on
the map, it represents an
airport, a station, a town

What is RDS? RDS station following T r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n f u n c t i o n
Your radio automatically checks
and selects the best frequency
for the radio station to which it is
tuned (if the station broadcasts on se-
veral transmitters or frequencies).
The frequency of a radio station covers
approximately 30 miles (50 km). The
change from one frequency to another
explains the loss of reception during a
journey.
If the station to which you are listening
does not have several frequencies in
the region in which you are currently
located, you can deactivate the auto-
matic frequency following.
Radio, RDS, AF, REG, TP, PTY
Radio Data System (RDS) func-
tion on the FM waveband permits:
- tuning to the same station while travelling through different regions
(if the transmitters of this station
cover the area through which you
are travelling),
- t e m p o r a r y t u n i n g t o t r a f fi c i n f o r m a - tion announcements,
-
display of the name of the station, etc...
Most FM stations use RDS.
These stations transmit non-audible
data in addition to their programmes.
The data transmitted in this way allows
you access to various functions, mainly
displaying of the name of the station,
t e m p o r a r y t u n i n g t o t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n
announcements or automatic station
following.
RDS allows you to continue listening to the
same station by means of the frequency
following. However, in certain conditions,
this RDS frequency following cannot be
provided throughout the country. Radio
stations do not cover the whole country,
which explains the loss of reception of the
station during a journey. T h e T r a f fi c P r o g r a m ( T P ) f u n c t i o n
permits automatic and temporary
switching to an FM station broad-
c a s t i n g t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n .
The radio station or the source that you
are listening to at this point is paused.
O n c e t h e t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n h a s e n d e d ,
the system switches back to the radio
station or the source that you were lis-
tening to initially.
Regional following mode Some stations are organised in
a network.
In different regions, they broad-
cast different or shared programmes de-
pending on the time of day.
You can follow:
- a regional station only,
- the entire network, with the possibility that you will be listening to a different
programme. Programme types
Some stations offer the option
of listening to a themed type of
programme as a priority, select-
ed from the list available below:
NEWS, AFFAIRS, INFOS, SPORT,
EDUCATE, DRAMA, CULTURE,
SCIENCE, VARIED, POP M, ROCK M,
