If your vehicle is fitted with this camera, it is
located at the rear, next to the third brake
lamp.
It sends images to the screen installed
in the cab.
this rear vision is an aid to

manoeuvring.
the reversing camera may be coupled with


rear parking sensors.Screen
the camera sends the images to a 5 inch
LCD colour screen.
this screen is also

the one used by the touch screen audio-
telematic system.
Activation and deactivation of the system
is done in the settings menu of the touch
screen audio-telematic system.
operation
the camera comes into operation when
reverse gear is engaged and remains active
up to approximately 9 mph (15 km/h). It is

deactivated above 11 mph (18 km/h).
the camera also comes on, with the vehicle


stationary, when the rear doors are opened.
Switching off
When a forward gear is engaged, the last
image remains displayed for approximately
5
seconds then switches of

f.
In the same way, the last image also
remains displayed, with the vehicle
stationary, when the rear doors are closed.
Good practice
With optimum vehicle conditions (position
on the road, loading level) the maximum
area of visibility covered by the camera has
a field depth approximately 3 m long and
5.5
m wide.
the area of visibility may vary depending on


the external weather conditions (brightness,
rain, snow, fog,
...), the load in the vehicle


and the position of the vehicle on the road.
When cleaning the camera and the screen,
avoid using a detergent or a tool which may
scratch the glass.
use a non-abrasive cloth or a small brush.

Pull the parking brake lever up to immobilise
your vehicle.
Check that the parking brake is applied
firmly before leaving the vehicle. Pull on the parking brake lever, only
with the vehicle stationary.
releasing
Pull the lever up slightly and press the
button to lower the parking brake lever.In the exceptional case of use of the
parking brake when the vehicle is
moving, apply the brake by pulling gently
to avoid locking the rear wheels (risk of
skidding).
If the parking brake is still on or has not
been released properly, this is indicated
by this warning lamp which comes on in
the instrument panel.
When parking on a slope, direct your wheels towards
the pavement and pull the parking brake lever up.
there is no advantage in engaging a gear after


parking the vehicle, particularly if the vehicle is loaded.
the hazard warning lamps should only
be used in dangerous situations, when
stopping in an emergency or when

driving in unusual conditions.
Driving safely

driving advice
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.
cooling:

towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
tyres: check the tyre pressures of the


towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing
the recommended pressures.
Fitting a towbar
We recommend the use of genuine
P
eugeOt towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from


the design stage of your vehicle and that
the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to a
P
eugeOt dealer.
these genuine towbars are compatible with


the operation of the rear parking sensors
and the reversing camera, if fitted to your
vehicle.
If this equipment is not fitted by a P
eugeOt
dealer, it must be fitted in line with the


manufacturer's instructions.
Good practice
If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
Refer to the "Checks - Levels and
checks" section.
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.
rear parking sensors:

the system is
deactivated while the vehicle is towing with a
genuine P
eugeOt towbar fitted.
Refer to the "
technical data -
Identification markings" section.

SnoW cHAInS
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the
vehicle when braking.
the snow chains must be fitted only to

the driving wheels.
they must never be


fitted to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow


chains and the maximum running speed
authorised . Advice on installation
F
If you have to fit the chains during
a journey

, stop the vehicle on a flat
surface on the side of the road.
F
Apply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks to prevent movement of


your vehicle.
F
Fit the chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer

.
F
Move off gently and drive for a few


moments, without exceeding 30 mph
(50
km/h).
F
Stop your vehicle and check that the
snow chains are correctly tightened.
It is recommended that before you


leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry surface.
Avoid driving with chains on roads that
have been cleared of snow, to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and the road
surface. If your vehicle is fitted with alloy
wheels, check that no part of the chain or its
fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.use only the chains designed to be fitted to
the type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:

Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Good practiceoil filter
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style of
driving, in particular for vehicles which are
used in town, over short distances. It may
be necessary to check the thickness of the
pads, even between services.
Brake disc wear
For any information on checking the brake
disc wear, contact a P
eugeOt dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great
or there is a reduction in the performance
of the system, the parking brake should be
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a P
eugeOt
dealer or a qualified workshop.
If this warning lamp comes on,
have the brake pad wear checked


by a P
eugeOt dealer or a
qualified workshop. In order to avoid damaging the


electrical units, we strongly advise you
not to use high pressure washing to clean
the engine compartment.
After washing the vehicle dampness, or in
winter, ice may form on the brake discs and
pads: braking efficiency may be reduced.
Make some light brake applications to dry
and de-ice the brakes. Only use products recommended by
P
eugeOt or products of equivalent quality
and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units as

important as the braking system, P
eugeOt
selects and offers specific products.
Change the filter regularly

, in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
