Safety








Ty r e u n d e r - i nfl ation detection
System which automatically checks the pressure of the tyres while driving.

Sensors fitted in each valve trigger a warning in
the event of malfunction (speed above 12 mph
(20 km/h)).
The spare wheel is not fitted with a sensor.
All repairs and changing of tyres on a
wheel fitted with this system must be
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you install a
wheel which is not detected by your
vehicle (example: fitting of snow tyres),
you must have the system reinitialised
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

This message is also displayed when
one of the wheels is away from the
vehicle (being repaired) or when one or
more wheels without a sensor are fitted.
The tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for the driver to be
vigilant or to drive responsibly.


This system does not avoid the need
to have the tyre pressures checked
regularly (refer to "Identification
markings") to ensure that the optimum
dynamic per formance of the vehicle
is maintained and prevent premature
wear of the tyres, particularly in arduous
driving conditions (heavy load, high
speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Remember to
check the pressure of the spare wheel.
The tyre under-inflation detection
system may experience temporary
inter ference due to electromagnetic
signals on a frequency close to that
used by the system.
A message appears in the instrument panel
screen, accompanied by an audible signal, to
identify the wheel concerned.

Under-infl ated tyre

This warning lamp and
the STOP
warning lamp
come on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message in the instrument
panel screen identifying the wheel concerned.


)
Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden
movement of the steering wheel and the
brakes.

)
Change the damaged wheel (punctured
or very deflated tyre), and have the tyre
pressure checked as soon as possible.



Puncture

A message appears in the instrument panel
screen, accompanied by an audible signal,
to identify the wheel or wheels which are not
detected or to indicate a fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).


Sensor(s) not detected or faulty



)
Check the tyre pressures as soon as
possible.
This check must be carried out when the tyres
are cold.

Practical information

Putting the wheel back in place


)
Put the box back in place in the centre of
the wheel and clip it.

)
Put the polystyrene storage box back in
place.


)
Put the wheel back in its housing.

)
Unscrew the yellow central bolt by a few
turns then put it in place in the centre of the
wheel.

)
Tighten fully until the central bolt clicks to
retain the wheel correctly.
Ty r e u n d e r - i nfl ation detection

The spare wheel is not fitted with a
sensor. The punctured wheel must be
repaired by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Driving advice


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 per formance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10 % for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section for details
of the weights and towed loads which apply to
your vehicle.


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.
The maximum towed load on a long incline
depends on the gradient and the ambient
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.


)
If the warning lamp and the
STOP
warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.



Braking

Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.


Ty r e s



)
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, obser ving the
recommended pressures.



Lighting



)
Check the electrical lighting and signalling
on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
PEUGEOT towbar is used.
