The spanner remains on in the small screen
to indicate that a service should have been
carried out.
The distance remaining may be weighted by the time factor,
depending on the type of motoring the vehicle is used for.
Therefore, the spanner may also come on if you have exceeded
the period since the last service specifi ed in the warranty and
maintenance record.

Although one of PEUGEOT main criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also depends on you. Only children between 9 and 18 kg can be carried on the rear
seats in a forward facing universal ISOFIX child seat.
GENERAL POINTS RELATING TO
CHILD SEATS
* The rules for carrying children are specifi c to each country. Refer to the legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please observe the following recommendations:
- in accordance with European 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 fi tted with a
seat belt or ISOFIX mountings * ,
- statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for carrying children are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the "rearward facing" position both in the front and in the rear.
CHILD SEAT AT 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.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
TOWING A VEHICLE
TOWING EYE
This is stored in the boot under the fl oor.
For access to it:
open the boot,
raise the fl oor using the strap,
secure it in the vertical position beyond the stops, located on the sides of the boot,
remove the towing eye from the storage box.
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Observe the legislation in force in your country.
Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is higher than that of
the towed vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of the towed vehicle and
must have a valid driving licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, always
use an approved towing bar; rope and straps are prohibited.
The towing vehicle must move off gently.
When towing a vehicle with the engine off, there is no longer any
power assistance for braking or steering.
In the following cases, you must always call on a professional
recovery service:
- vehicle broken down on a motorway or fast road,
- four-wheel drive vehicle,
- when it is not possible to put the gearbox into neutral, unlock the steering, or release the parking brake,
- towing with only two wheels on the ground,
- where there is no approved towing bar available...

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
TOWING A TRAILER
Towbar suitable for the attachment of a trailer with additional lighting \
and signalling.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for transporting people and luggage,
but it may also be used for towing a trailer. We recommend use of the PEUGEOT genuine towbar with ball
which can be removed without tools and its harness 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 or a qualifi ed workshop.
If the trailer is fi tted outside the PEUGEOT dealer network, it must
be fi tted in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
DRIVING ADVICE
Driving with a trailer subjects the towing vehicle to more signifi cant
stress and its driver must be particularly careful.
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 approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it.
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.
Refer to the "Technical data" section for details of the weights and
towing loads which apply to your vehicle version.
Side wind
Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.
202
* The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit,\
on condition that the GVW of the towing vehicle is reduced by the same \
amount; warning: towing with a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an\
adverse effect on its road holding.

The GTW and towed load values indicated apply up to a maximum altitude o\
f 1000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by 10 % for
every additional 1000 metres.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) (comp\
ly with the legislation in force in your country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the performance o\
f the vehicle to protect the engine; when the ambient temperature is
higher than 37 °C, limit the towed weight.
