CHECKING TYRE PRESSURES / INFLATING
ACCESSORIES

You can also use the compressor, without injecting any product, to:


- check or adjust the pressure of your tyres,

- infl ate other accessories (balls, bicycle tyres...).




)
Turn the selector A
to the "Air" position.

)
Uncoil the black pipe H
fully.

)
Connect the black pipe to the valve of the wheel or
accessory.
If necessary, fi t one of the adaptors supplied with the kit fi rst.



)
Connect the compressor's electrical connector to the vehicle's 12 V
socket.

)
Start the vehicle and let the engine run.

)
Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to infl ate: switch B

in position "I"
; to defl ate: switch B
in position "O"
and press
button C
), according to the vehicle's tyre pressure label or the
accessory's pressure label.

)
Remove the kit then stow it.

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.
The maximum towing load on a long slope depends on the gradient and
the ambient temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature.


Braking

Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.


Tyres



)
Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer,
observing the recommended pressures.



Lighting



)
Check the electrical signalling on the trailer.

)
If the warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come
on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as
possible.
The rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically if a
genuine PEUGEOT towbar is used.


When not towing a trailer, remove the quickly-detachable tow ball
before driving, so as to avoid masking the central rear lamp.

IDENTIFICAT ION MARKINGS
Various visible markings for the identifi cation of your vehicle.



A.
Vehicle identifi cation number (VIN) under the bonnet.

This number is engraved on the bodywork near the damper
support.
For access to it, raise the plastic cover.
C.
Manufacturer's label.

The number is indicated on a self-destroying label affi xed to the
door aperture, below the door striker, on the right-hand side.
This label also indicates the unladen weight, the gross vehicle
weight (GVW) and the gross train weight (GVW).
For information concerning the possibilities for installing snow
chains, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
The tyre pressures must be checked when the tyres are cold, at
least once a month.
If the tyre pressures are too low, this increases fuel consumption.

B.
VIN on the windscreen lower crossmember.

This number is indicated on a self-adhesive label which is visible
through the windscreen.
D.
Tyre/paint label.

This label is affi xed to the door aperture, on the driver's side.
It bears the following information:


- the tyre infl ation pressures, laden and unladen,

- the wheel rim and tyre sizes,

- the brands of tyre recommended by the manufacturer,

- the infl ation pressure of the spare wheel,

- the paint colour code.
