Towing a trailer
ACCESSORIES

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.
Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased.
Drive smoothly and at a moderate
speed.
ABS/DSC
The ABS or DSC 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.

ECONOMY MODE
After the engine has stopped, with
the key in the ignition position, certain
functions (windscreen wiper, electric
windows, courtesy lamps, audio
equipment, etc.) can only be used for a
cumulative duration of thirty minutes, to
prevent discharging of the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, the
active functions are put on standby
and the battery warning lamp fl ashes
accompanied by a message in the
screen.
To resume the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let it
run for a few minutes.
The time available will then be double
the time for which the engine was left
running. However, this time will always
be between fi ve and thirty minutes.
A fl at battery will prevent the engine
from starting.

The system is protected in such a way that it will only operate in your vehicle.
01 First steps - Control panel
For safety reasons, the driver must carry out operations which require prolonged attention while the vehicle is stationary.
When the engine is switched off and to prevent discharging of the battery, the system switches off following the activation of the energy economy mode.

11 TRIP COMPUTER
TRIP COMPUTER
Press the MODE button several times in succession until the trip computer is displayed.
Range: displays the distance which can travelled with the remaining fuel detected in the tank, basd on the average consumption over the last few miles (kilometres).
This displayed value may vary signifi cantly following a change in the vehicle speed or the relief of the route.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km), dashes are displayed. After fi lling with at least 10 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If, whilst driving, dashes are displayed continuously in place of the digits, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Each press of the button at the end of the wiper stalk displays the different trip computer information in succession, according to the screen.
A FEW DEFINITIONS
- The "vehicle" tab:
The range, the current fuel consumption and the distance remaining.
- The "1" (trip 1) tab with:
The average speed, the average fuel consumption and the distance travelled calculated over route "1".
- The "2" (trip 2) tab with the same functions for a second route.
Current fuel consumption: only calculated and displayed above 20 mph (30 km/h).
Average fuel consumption: this is the average fuel consumption since the last trip computer zero reset.
Distance travelled: calculated since the last trip computer zero reset.
Distance remaining to the destination: calculated with reference to the fi nal destination, entered by the user. If guidance is activated, the navigation system calculates it as a current value.
Average speed: this is the average speed calculated since the last trip computer zero reset (ignition on).
