TOWING A TRAILER, ...

Towbar suitable for the attachment of a
trailer or caravan with additional lighting
and signalling.

Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it
may also be used for towing a trailer.

Driving advice

The maximum towed load on a long in-
cline depends on the gradient and the
ambient temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the cool-
ant temperature.

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.
Side wind


)
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.

Tyres


)
Check the tyre pressures of the tow-
ing vehicle and of the trailer, observ-
ing the recommended pressures.

Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.

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








Maximum trailer weight

You must not tow a trailer weighing
more than 500 kg.
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 performance. Above
1 000 metres, the maximum towed load
must be reduced by 10 % for every
1 000 metres of altitude. Driving with a trailer places greater de-
mands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
We recommend the use of
genuine PEUGEOT towbars
and their harnesses 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 or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If the trailer is not fi tted by a PEUGEOT
dealer, it is imperative that it is fi tted
using the vehicle's electrical pre-
equipment, in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
Refer to the "Technical Data"
section for details of the
weights and towed loads
which apply to your vehicle.

Lighting


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