Practical information


The interior rack is not compatible
with the Zenith roof.


Fitting the bars



- Unclip the plastic covers C .

- Unscrew the knurled wheels
located at the ends of the bars fully.

- Take hold of the bar by the ends
to slide them towards the inside to
retract them.

- Extract the metal end piece A
taking hold of the end of the bar like
a syringe.

- Insert the end piece A on one side
then lower it to fi x it in the base of
the notch B .


Storing

When the bars are not in use:


- partially loosen the knurled wheels,

- lift the bar slightly,

- pivot it upwards by 180°,

- tighten the knurled wheel.



Good practice

In the event of a front impact, the rack
is disengaged to avoid injury to the
occupants of the vehicle. The slight
clearance observed in the bar is linked
with this safety disengagement.
Do not loosen or place the bars in a
position other than those described
above.
The load on the rack must rest on the
overhead storage compartment and
be strapped using the strap passages
provided on the bars.
The bars are not grab handles for the
passengers.
- Carry out the same operations on
the other side.

- Ensure that they are engaged
correctly at the base of the notch.

- Tighten the knurled wheels and
check the tightening by pushing the
bar sideways.
To remove, proceed in the reverse
order.

Parking sensors

SAFETY
4


Activation/Deactivation
Operating fault
In the event of an operating fault, whenreverse gear is engaged the diode on
the button comes on, accompanied
b
y an audible signal and a message on the display. Consult a PEUGEOTdealer.


Good practice
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered with mud,
i
ce or snow.
The s
ystem will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towedor if a bicycle carrier is fi tted (vehiclefi tted with a towbar or bicycle carrier recommended by PEUGEOT ).
The parkin
g assistance cannot, in
any circumstances, take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of
the driver. Y
ou can activate or deactivate
the system by pressing thisbutton.

Th
e activation or deactivation of the system is stored when
the vehicle stops.

128
Towing a trailer

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.


Tyres:
Check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (see the "Identifi cation
features" section of chapter 8) and of
the trailer, observing the recommended
pressure. See the "Levels" section of chapter 6. If the coolant temperature
warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible.
Brakes

Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change
down early and brake gradually.

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 you entrust the
fi tting of this equipment to a PEUGEOT
dealer.
If this equipment 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 and in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
In accordance with the general
instructions a reminder of which has
been given above, we draw your
attention to the risk linked with fi tting
a towbar or electrical accessory not
recommended by PEUGEOT. Fitting
such equipment could result in the
failure of your vehicle’s electronic
system. Please contact a PEUGEOT
dealer for information before fi tting this
type of equipment.
Side wind

Sensitivity to side wind is increased.
Drive smoothly and at a moderate
speed.

ABS/ESP

The ABS or ESP systems only control
the vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.

Rear parking assistance

The assistance does not function while
the vehicle is towing.

Changing a wheel

1. PARKING THE VEHICLE



- Tthe occupants must get out of the
vehicle and wait in a safe location.

- If possible, park the vehicle on level,
stable and non-slippery ground.

- Apply the parking brake, switch
off the ignition and engage fi rst or
reverse gear.
- If available, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the
one to be changed.
If the vehicle is fi tted with a towbar,
it is sometimes necessary to raise
the vehicle slightly to make it easier
to remove the spare wheel from its
carrier.
On certain types of ground and/or
if considerable loads are being
transported, call a PEUGEOT dealer.

CHANGING A WHEEL

2. TOOLS



- The tools are stowed in a storage
compartment located under the
front seat. If necessary, move the
seat forward to access the storage
compartment from the rear.

The towing eye is stored in the tool kit,
located under the right-hand seat.

bottom part.

- Screw in the removable towing eye
until it locks.



From the rear



- Unclip the cover using a coin or the

It is preferable to raise the vehicle
using professional lifting equipment.


Vehicles fitted with a manual
gearbox (diesel version)
In the case of vehicles fi tted with a
manual gearbox, the gear lever must
