Textured paint
The textured paint reacts to light with variations
of appearance and finish that emphasise
the car's lines and form. This paint contains
particles that remain visible and create
a unique satin effect with relief. Its lightly
granulated texture gives it a surprising feel.
Straight cut matt paint
Maintenance:
Observe the following recommendations to
avoid damaging the paint finish:
-
C
hoose a high pressure wash, or at least a
high water delivery; roller brush washing is
compatible.
-

G
ently wipe the body with a clean
microfibre cloth.
-

C
arefully wipe off any fuel spilt on the body
using a soft cloth, then allow to dry.
-

C
lean off minor marks (for example,
finger marks), using the product in the
"TECHNATURE" range intended for
removing insects.
The following recommendations should be
taken into account in the care and maintenance
of the matt paint. They also appear in the
servicing and warranty booklet for the vehicle.
-

N

ever clean the vehicle without water.
-

N

ever clean your vehicle in an automatic
roller-brush car wash.
-

N

ever polish the body or the alloy wheels.
This makes the paint bright. -
D
o not use paint restorers, abrasive or
polishing products or paint preservers
(wax polish, for example) on the paintwork.
These products are only suitable for bright
finishes. Using them on vehicles finished
with matt paint seriously damages the
sur face finish of the vehicle, resulting in
particular in the appearance of irreversible
bright or stained areas.
-

N

ever use a high pressure jet washer fitted
with a brush as this may scratch the paint
sur face.
-

N

ever select a wash programme with a
final hot wax cycle.
On the other hand:
-

D
o not use a wash programme that
includes a final hot wax cycle.
-

D
o not use waterless cleaning.
-

N
ever polish the vehicle.
-

D
o not use paint restorers, abrasive
or polishing products, or bright paint
preservers (wax polish, for example).
It is always preferable to have paint repairs
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

General information
Engine characteristics Weights and towed
loads
The kerb weight is equal to the unladen
weight
+ driver (75 kg).
The gross train weight and towed load values
indicated apply up to a maximum altitude
of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned
must be reduced by 10 % for every additional
1
000 metres.
The weight of the braked trailer can be
increased, within the GTW limit, on condition
that the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced
by the same amount.
The recommended nose weight is the vertical
load on the towball (removable with or without
to o l s). High ambient temperatures may result
in a reduction in the per formance of the
vehicle to protect the engine; when the
ambient temperature is higher than
37 °C, limit the towed weight.
Towing with a lightly loaded vehicle can
adversely affect roadholding.
Braking distances are increased when
towing a trailer.
Never exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) when
towing (comply with the legislation in
force in your country).
GV W:

gross vehicle weight, the maximum authorised vehicle weight.GT W: gross train weight, the maximum authorised weight of vehicle plus trailer.
The engine characteristics (capacity,
maximum power, maximum power speed, fuel,
CO
2 emissions...) for your vehicle are given in
t
he registration document, as well as in sales
brochures.
These characteristics correspond to the
values type-approved on a test bed, under
conditions defined in European legislation
(Directive


1999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. The maximum weights and towed loads for your
vehicle are given are given in the registration
document, as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also present on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
For more information on these identification
markings, refer to the corresponding section.
