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,
automatic cutting off of the air conditioning
allows the engine power to be saved.If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
ChecksSee the "
l evels" section of
chapter 7.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures on the
towing vehicle and the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Brakes: towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually. Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed.
ABS: the system only controls the vehicle,
not the trailer.
Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest objects are as close as possible
to the axle and the nose weight is close to
the maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it.
t
he air density decreases with
altitude, so reducing the performance of the
engine.
t
he maximum towed load must be
reduced by 10 % for each 1 000 metres of
altitude.
Refer to the "
t
echnical data -
Identification markings" section. Rear parking sensors: the sensors will be
deactivated automatically when an genuine
P
euge O t towbar is used.

socket.
When the trailer cable is removed, the rear
parking sensors are re-activated.
