1. Load-space cover
To install it:


- position the front ends of the load
space cover on its support and
press gently to put it in place,

- unfold the load space cover fully,

- position the rear ends of the load
space cover on its support and
press gently to put it in place.
To remove it:


- unclip the rear ends,

- fold the load space cover fully,

- unclip the front ends and remove
the load space cover.
To store it, fold it like an accordion.
Do not roll it
.
2. High load retaining net
The high load retaining net can be fi tted
behind the front or rear seats.
Open the covers A
of the corresponding
upper fastenings.
Fit the ends of the metal bar in these
fastenings.
Secure the two net strap hooks be-
hind the front seats, with the rear
seat folded, or in the stowing rings B

on the fl oor.
The rings are located directly below
the corresponding upper fastenings.
Pull the two straps C
taut.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

SNOW SCREEN *

The snow screen is installed on the
lower part of the front bumper to pre-
vent the accumulation of snow at the
radiator cooling fan.
Remove the snow screen:


- when the exterior temperature is
higher than 10 °C,

- when towing,

- for speeds higher than 75 mph
(120 km/h).


FITTING



)
Offer up the snow screen facing
the front bumper.

)
Put it in place positioning the lower
clips A
in the bumper.

)
Press the snow screen at each
upper clip B
.



REMOVAL



)
Press the two upper clips B
and
pull the snow screen.


*

As an accessory or according to country.

95 PRACTICAL INFORMATION
-

Without lifting
(four wheels on the ground)
You must always use a towbar.

By lifting (two wheels only on the
ground)
It is preferable to lift the vehicle by
the wheels.

TOWING YOUR VEHICLE


From the front or the rear
Attach the towbar to the towing eye.
Never use the radiator cross-
member.
When towing another vehicle,
it must freewheel.
Place the gearbox in "neutral".
Failure to observe this instruction
may result in damage to certain brak-
ing components and the absence of
braking assistance when the engine
is started again.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
96 -
TOWING A TRAILER,CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC.
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their har-
nesses that have been tested and
approved from the design stage of
your vehicle and that the fi tting of the
towbar is entrusted to a PEUGEOT
dealer.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative
that it is fi tted using the electrical pre-
equipment installed at the rear of the
vehicle, in accordance with the man-
ufacturer's instructions.
Your vehicle is primarily designed
for transporting people and luggage
but it may also be used for towing a
trailer.
Driving with a trailer subjects the tow-
ing vehicle to more signifi cant stress
and its driver must be particularly
careful.
Air density decreases with altitude,
thus reducing engine performance.
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum
towing load must be reduced by 10 %
and so on for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.

Driving advice


Tyres:
Check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle and of the trailer, ob-
serving the recommended pressures.

Braking:
Towing increases the braking
distance.

Lights:
Check the electrical signalling
on the trailer.

Side wind:
Take into account the in-
creased 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.
On the contrary, use a high gear to
lower the engine speed and reduce
your speed.
The maximum towing load on a long
slope depends on the gradient and
the outside temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (towing the maximum load
on a steep gradient in high tempera-
tures), switching off the air condition-
ing permits the recovery of engine
power and therefore an increase in
the towing capacity.
If the warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
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 approach-
es the maximum permitted without
exceeding it.

The GTW and towing load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towing load mentioned
must be reduced by 10 % for each additional 1 000 metres.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
High exterior temperatures may result in a reduction in the performance of the vehicle in order to protect the engine; when
the exterior temperature is above 37 °C, limit the towed load.
