FAMILIARISATION


Interior

We recommend that the load is
properly secured using the stowing
rings on the fl oor and that heavy
objects are placed at the front (towards
the cab). Overhead storage compartment: 5 kg.
Folding seat, in the seat back folded
onto seat cushion position: 50 kg.
Transverse roof bars: 75 kg.

Practical information

Putting the bench seat back in
the seat position


- In a single movement: take hold of
the red strap and pull the assembly
horizontally towards the rear. Guide
the movement until the feet of the
bench seat lock on the fl oor.

- Raise the seat back. The control A

locks in place automatically.

- Check that the bench is locked on
the fl oor correctly once it has been
returned to the seat position.
Do not let the assembly fall sharply.


Good practice

There is no need to assist, guide or
support the tilting movement using
your free arm.
The rear seat belt casings are not
designed for securing the load
transported. Use the stowing rings on
the fl oor only.
The bench seat of the crew cab is not
suitable for the installation of a child
seat.

- Using the same hand, fold the seat
back and the associated grille onto
the seat cushion.

- Take hold of the red strap (like
a handle) and lift the assembly
vertically, guiding the movement to
the fully folded position.
The raised seat rests against the backs
of the seats of row 1.

LOAD SPACE FITTINGS

12 volt socket (120 W max)

It is advisable to limit its use to avoid
discharging the battery.


Stowing rings

Use the stowing rings on the rear fl oor
to secure your loads.
As a safety precaution in case of sharp
braking, you are advised to immobilise
the load by securing it fi rmly using the
stowing rings and place heavy objects
as far forwards as possible (towards
the cab).


Trim panels

The lower parts of the sides are fi tted
with load protection trim panels.

Towing a trailer

For more information about
weights, refer to the administrative
documents (registration
document, ...) or to the "Weights"
section of chapter 8.
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...


Distribution of loads

Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest objects are as
close as possible to the axle and
the nose weight is close to the
maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it.

Cooling

Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the coolant temperature. As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
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.


Driving advice

A towed vehicle must free wheel:
gearbox in neutral.

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 air conditioning is
automatically cut off to save engine
power.


Tyres:
check the tyre pressures of
the towing vehicle (see the
"Identifi cation markings" section of
chapter 8) and of the trailer, observing
the recommended pressures.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 6. If the coolant temperature
warning lamp 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 genuine
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 associated 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 obtain information from
the Manufacturer before fi tting this type
of equipment.


OTHER ACCESSORIES

These accessories and parts, having been
tested and approved for reliability and
safety, are all adapted to your vehicle. A
wide range of recommended accessories
and genuine parts is available.

Range of trade equipment
The parts department publishes an
accessory catalogue offering various
equipment and fi ttings, such as:
Load retainers (all models).
Loading roller.
Towbar, towbar harness: trailer towbar
which should preferably be fi tted by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Separation partitions and grilles,
smooth, non-slip wooden protective
fl oor.
Protective grilles.


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.

Another range is also available,
structured around comfort, leisure and
maintenance:

REMOVABLE SNOW SCREEN

According to country, the removable
snow screen is installed on the lower
part of the front bumper to prevent the
accumulation of snow at the radiator
cooling fan.
Do not forget to remove the snow
screen when the exterior temperature
is higher than 10°C (no risk of snowfall)
and when towing.

FITTING

REMOVAL



- Pass a screwdriver into the hole
located near each of the clips.

- Use the screwdriver as a lever to
unclip the four clips B
in turn.


- Offer up the snow screen facing its
centring pin A
on the front bumper.

- Put it in place by pressing at each
clip B
located in the four corners.



6. REFITTING THE REPAIRED
WHEEL
The wheel is refi tted as described in
step 5, not forgetting to refi t the wheel
trim.
Refer to the "Identifi cation
markings" section of chapter 8 to
locate the tyre label.
Refer to the "Instruments and
controls" section of chapter 2,
"Tyre under-infl ation detection"
part, for recommendations after
changing a wheel fi tted with a tyre
under-infl ation detection sensor.
The spare wheel is not designed
to be used over long distances.
Have the tightening of the bolts
and the tyre pressure checked by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop as soon as possible. Have
the original wheel repaired and refi tted
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop as soon as possible.

CHANGING A FUSE

The fuseboxes are located:


- in the lower dashboard on the left-
hand side (behind the cover),

- under the bonnet (near the battery).
If fi tted on your vehicle, an additional
fusebox is used for towing, the
towbar and the connections for
the coachbuilder and platform cab
modifi cations. It is located on the right
behind the load retaining partition.
The indications communicated
are only those fuses which can be
changed by the user using the tweezer,
located behind the dashboard storage
compartment on the right-hand side.
For any other work, visit a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.


Removing and fitting a fuse


Always replace a failed fuse with a
fuse of the same rating.

PEUGEOT will not accept
responsibility for the cost incurred in
repairing your vehicle or for rectifying
the malfunctions resulting from
the installation of accessories not
supplied and not recommended by the
PEUGEOT network and not installed
in accordance with its instructions,
in particular when the combined
consumption of all of the additional
equipment connected exceeds
10 milliamperes. Motor trade technicians: for
complete information on the fuses
and relays, refer to the "Repair
manual" diagram via the dealer
network. Before replacing a fuse, the cause
of the incident must be found and
rectifi ed.


- Use the tweezer.
