general points relating to child seats
For maximum safety, please observe the
following recommendations:
-
i
n accordance with e
u
ropean regulations,
all children under the age of 12 or less
than one and a half metres tall must
travel in approved child seats suited to
their weight , on seats fitted with a seat
belt or ISOFIX mountings*,
-
s
tatistically, the safest seats in your
vehicle for carr ying children are the
rear seats,
-
a c
hild weighing less than 9 kg must
travel in the "rear ward facing" position
both in the front and in the rear. PEUGEOT recommends
that children
should travel in the outer rear seats of
your vehicle:
-
"
rearward facing" up to the age of 3,
-
"
forward facing" over the age of 3.
Although one of P
e
uge
Ot
main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safety of your children
also depends on you.
* t
h
e rules for carrying children are specific to
each country. Refer to the legislation in force
in your country.

towing a trailer
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 fitting of the towbar is
entrusted to a P
e
uge
Ot
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a
P
e
uge
Ot
dealer, it is imperative that it
is fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.to
wbar suitable for the attachment of a
trailer or installation of a bicycle carrier, with
additional lighting and signalling.
Blanking cover
When towing, you must remove the blanking
cover if your vehicle has one.
Contact a P
e
uge
Ot
dealer or a qualified
workshop for this.
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
Maximum trailer weight

transporting people and luggage, but it may
also be used for towing a trailer.

Driving advice
Distribution of loads
F 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.
Side wind
F take into account the increased 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.
F
t
o l
ower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
th
e maximum towed load on a long incline
depends on the gradient and the ambient
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
F
I
f the warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
Braking
towing a trailer increases the braking distance.to a void overheating of the brakes on a long
mountain type of descent, the use of engine
braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer.
th
e rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
P
e
uge
Ot
towbar is used.
Refer to the "
te
chnical data" section for details
of the weights and towed loads which apply to
your vehicle.
