the gauge is positioned on:
-
F (Full): the fuel tank is full.
-
E (Empty): the reserve is now being


used, the low fuel warning lamp comes
on continuously.
the reserve when the warning first comes


on is approximately:
-
10 litres for 60 and 90 litre tanks,
-
12 litres for 120 litre tanks.
Fuel tanks of different capacities (60 and

In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic
conditions, the needle may move close to
the red graduations. If the needle enters the red zone or if the
warning lamp comes on:
-
stop immediately, switch of

f the ignition.
the fan may continue to operate for


a certain time up to approximately
10
minutes.
-
wait for the engine to cool down in
order to check the level and top it up if

necessary. Follow this advice:
the cooling system is pressurised. In order
to avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the
cap by two turns to allow the pressure to
drop.
When the pressure has dropped, check the
level and remove the cap to top-up.
If the needle remains in the red zone,
contact a PeugeOt dealer or a qualified
workshop.

On the 2-3 seats version, this is located
under the seat on the driver's side with air
diffusion directed forwards.

condItIonInG
If your vehicle is fitted with an additional
air conditioning unit, located in the rear of
the vehicle: the distribution duct located in
the roof and the individual diffusion vents
provide a perfect diffusion of cold air.
the warm air dif

fused at the floor, from the
front air conditioning unit, is distributed at
the feet of the rear passengers of rows 2
and 3.
A warm air diffusion vent, located on the rear
left wheelarch, may complete the assembly
for the feet of the rear passengers of row 3.
Additional heating
this is passenger compartment heating,
additional to the standard equipment.
It can operate independently of the engine.
Additional heater or programmable
additional heating
this is an additional, programmable and
separate system which heats the Diesel
engine hot coolant loop to make starting

easier.
It improves the demisting and defrosting
performance and that of the heated seats, if
fitted to the vehicle.
the passenger compartment heating is


brought up to temperature more rapidly.
this system must be programmed to start up


before you enter the vehicle. On the 5-9 seats version, it is
located at the rear. Depending
on the model version, the air
diffusion is either direct from the
rear or comes from the rail located under
each of the two rows of seats.
Press this control to activate/
deactivate the heating.
the LeD


is on if the heating is activated.
When rapid demisting and
defrosting is required, switch off the control.
Automatic additional heating
this is an additional system which starts
automatically when the ignition is switched
on. Its activation depends on the ambient

temperature and the temperature inside the
vehicle.
It switches off automatically once the
heating system is started manually.

Have the additional heating checked at
least once a year at the beginning of
winter. Maintenance and repairs should only
be carried out by a P

qualified workshop.
use only genuine replacement parts.
Switching off the heating
In the case of deferred operation, the
heating stops at the end of the programmed
period.
Good practice
to avoid any risk of poisoning or
asphyxiation, the additional heating must
not be used, even for short periods, in
an enclosed space such as a garage or
workshop which is not fitted with an exhaust
gas extraction system.
the additional heating switches of

f when the
battery voltage is low, so as to allow engine
starting.
the additional heating is supplied by the


vehicle's fuel tank.
ensure that the low fuel


warning lamp is not on.
Always switch off the additional heating
when filling with fuel to avoid any risk of fire
or explosion.
the temperature near the heater must not

exceed 120
°C.
A temperature higher than
this (for example in the case of painting in
an oven) could damage the components of
the electronic circuits.
the additional heating is fitted with

a temperature limiter which cuts off
the combustion in the event of engine
overheating due to a lack of coolant. Check
the level and if necessary top-up following
the advice given in the "Checks - Levels"
section.

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.

technical data -
Identification markings" section.

cooling systemPower steering fluid level
the vehicle must be parked on level ground
with the engine cold.
unscrew the cap

integrated with the gauge and check the
level which must be between the MI
n and


MA
x marks.
For access to the reservoir filler cap, remove


the protective cover by turning its three
fixing screws a quarter turn, then remove the
second cover fitted to the cap.
topping up
the level must be between the
MI
n and

x marks on the expansion bottle. If

more than 1 litre of fluid is required to top
up the level, have the system checked by a
P
eugeOt dealer or a qualified workshop.
Windscreen wash and headlamp
wash level
Capacity of the reservoir: approximately
5.5
litres.
For access to the reservoir filler cap, pull on


the telescopic filler pipe and unclip the cap.
For best quality cleaning and to prevent
freezing, this fluid must not be topped up or
replaced with plain water.
In wintry conditions, the use of an alcohol or
methanol based fluid is recommended.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this
indicates a failure which must be checked by
a PeugeOt dealer or a qualified workshop
as soon as possible.
Only use the fluid recommended by the

manufacturer. Otherwise, you risk seriously
damaging your engine. When the engine
is warm, the temperature of the coolant is
controlled by the engine fan. As this fan can
operate with the ignition key removed and
because the cooling system is pressurised,
wait for at least one hour after the engine
has stopped before carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by 1/4 of a turn to release
the pressure to prevent any risk of scalding.
When the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the level with coolant.
For access to the header tank filler cap,
remove the protective cover by turning its
three fixing screws a quarter turn.
