If the battery is disconnected, the boot
cannot be opened.
Do not climb onto the lower tailgate and
do not subject it to heavy knocks, it may
be damaged.
Always close the lower tailgate and
check that it is secured correctly before
closing the boot.
When closing the lower tailgate, ensure
that no person or object is in the
proximity of the moving parts to avoid
any risk of injury or damage.

Deactivation
Operating fault
F Press button A again, the warning lamp switches off, the system is reactivated.
F

P

ress button A , the warning lamp comes
on, the system is fully deactivated. If an operating fault occurs, this
warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the multifunction screen,
accompanied by an audible signal (short beep),
when reverse gear is engaged.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The parking sensor system cannot, in
any circumstances, replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
The system will be deactivated
automatically when a trailer is being
towed or when a bicycle carrier is fitted
(vehicle fitted with a towbar or bicycle
carrier recommended by PEUGEOT).In bad weather or in winter, ensure
that the sensors are not covered with
mud, ice or snow. When reverse gear is
engaged, an audible signal (long beep)
indicates that the sensors may be dirty.
When the vehicle is being driven at
a speed below approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h), certain sources of noise
(motorcycles, lorries, pneumatic
drills, ...) may trigger the parking sensor
audible signals.

Towing a trailer
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it may
also be used for towing a trailer.Refer to the "Technical data" section for
details of the weights and towed loads
which apply to your vehicle.
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 PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
If the trailer starts to sway, you risk
losing control. The trailer could
overturn. There is a risk of an accident.
Do not try to correct the trailer's
movement by accelerating. Reduce
your speed and do not counter-steer.
Brake if necessary.
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.
Practical information

237
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 lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The 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.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid 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.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
PEUGEOT towbar is used.
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.
