Rear suspension


2 - Manual correction of the height
of the rear sill
If your vehicle is fitted with this adjustment,
the control is located on the right-hand side
at the rear of the vehicle.
This manual adjustment permits "lowering"
or "raising" of the height of the sill of the
rear platform to facilitate operations in a
parking area.
This adjustment of the height of the sill is
restricted by a lower limit and an upper limit.
First use
To initialise the function, press the control
for approximately 2 seconds.
Malfunctions
If the load sill is not adjusted when the
control is pressed, "3 beeps" indicate a
malfunction for the following reasons:


- foot on the brake pedal with the key
in the ignition,

- excessive use of the manual correction,

- low battery charge,

- other.
If the audible signal persists, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. Carry out these operations with the vehicle
still stationary and:


- with the front and side doors closed,

- with the parking brake applied,

- do not leave your foot on the brake
pedal.

Lower: downwards adjustment
of the platform sill
Press the control downwards
continuously.
Release the button to stop the movement,
"3 beeps" indicate that you have reached
the maximum limit, the movement stops
automatically.

Raise: upwards adjustment of
the platform sill
Press the control upwards
continuously.
Release the button to stop the movement,
"3 beeps" indicate that you have reached
the maximum limit, the movement stops
automatically.

Return to the optimum sill height
Press the control up or down twice in
succession, the opposite of the position
of the load sill.

You should therefore use a high gear to
lower the engine speed and reduce your
speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
Ty r e s
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle (see the "Identification markings"
section of chapter 8) and of the trailer,
observing the recommended pressures. Towbar

We recommend the use of genuine
PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle, and that
you entrust the fitting of this equipment to a
PEUGEOT dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a PEUGEOT
dealer, it is imperative that it is fitted 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 associated
with fitting a towbar or electrical accessory
not recommended by PEUGEOT. Fitting
such equipment could result in the failure
of your vehicle's electronic system. Please
obtain information from the Manufacturer
before fitting this type of equipment. If the coolant temperature warning
lamp comes on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine as soon
as possible.

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 air conditioning is automatically
cut off to save engine power.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 6.
Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance. Drive
at a moderate speed, change down early
and brake gradually.

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 sensors
The parking sensors system does not
function while the vehicle is towing.

Checks
CHECKS


Battery

At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Brake pads

Brake pad wear depends on the style of
driving, in particular for vehicles which are
used in town, over short distances. It may
be necessary to check the thickness of the
pads, even between services.
Unless there is a leak in the system, a drop
in the brake fluid level indicates that the
brake pads are worn.


Brake disc/drum wear

For any information on checking the brake
disc/drum wear, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.

Parking brake

Where the parking brake travel is too great
or there is a reduction in the performance
of the system, the parking brake should be
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Oil filter

Change the filter regularly, in accordance
with the servicing schedule.
Carbon filter and passenger compartment filter

The carbon fi lter permits continuous and
effective fi ltering of dust.
If the passenger compartment fi lter becomes
clogged, this may reduce the performance
of the air conditioning system and generate
unpleasant odours.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment fi lter. By means of
its second special active fi lter, it contributes
to the purifi cation of the air breathed by the
occupants and the cleanness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms,
unpleasant odours and greasy deposits).
Refer to the servicing booklet to fi nd out the
replacement interval for these components.
Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the vehicle
(urban driving...), change them twice as often
if necessary.
This filter actively contributes
to the preservation of air quality
by trapping unburnt polluting
particles. It is controlled
completely and automatically by the engine
management system.
This warning lamp comes on if there is a risk
of blockage of the filter.
This alert signals the start of saturation of
the particle emissions filter (exceptionally
prolonged driving in urban conditions:
reduced speed, traffic jams…).
If this alert persists, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
On acceleration after the vehicle has been
running for a prolonged period at very low
speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional
circumstances, notice the emission of water
vapour at the exhaust. This water vapour
does not have any adverse effect on vehicle
handling or the environment.
To regenerate the filter, it is recommended
that as soon as driving conditions permit,
you drive at a speed of at least 36 mph
(60 km/h) for at least 5 minutes (until the
warning lamp goes off and/or the message
disappears).
Refer to "Under the bonnet" in section 6.
