2012 Peugeot M59 Owner's Manual - RHD (UK, Australia)

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 manu-
facturer'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 cool-
ant 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.

ACCESSORIES

These accessories and parts, hav-
ing been tested and approved for
reliability and safety, are all adapted

replacement bulbs, ...

Anti-theft alarm, window engraving,
fi rst aid kit, high visibility safety jacket,
rear parking assistance, warning tri-
angle, ...
Audio equipment, hands-free kit,
speakers, CD changer, navigation, ...
Regardless of the audio and telematic
equipment offered on the market, the
technical constraints linked with the
fi tting of equipment of these fami-
lies of products mean that the spe-
cial features of the equipment and
its compatibility with the capacities
of the your vehicle's standard equip-
ment must be taken into account.
Please contact a PEUGEOT dealer
for information before fi tting such
equipment.
Front seat covers compatible with
airbags, bench, rubber mats, carpet
mats, snow chains, blind, tailgate
bicycle carrier, roof bars (max load
120 kg), transverse roof bars (max
load 100 kg), ...

Range of comfort, leisure and
maintenance equipment

Installation of
radiocommunication transmitters
Before installing accessory radio-
communication transmitters with an
external aerial on your vehicle, you
are advised to contact a representa-
tive of the PEUGEOT marque.

- ensure that the mat and its fi xings
are positioned correctly,

- never fi t one mat on top of another.

For any work on your vehicle,
use a qualifi ed workshop that
has the technical information,
competence and equipment
required, which a PEUGEOT dealer
is able to provide. The PEUGEOT Network will inform
you of the specifi cations (frequency
band, maximum output power, aerial
position, specifi c installation condi-
tions) of the transmitters which can be
fi tted, in accordance with the Motor
Vehicle Electromagnetic Compatibility
Directive (2004/104/CE).
