In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
t
o ob
tain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles
located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well
as the air extractor located in the boot.
F
Do n
ot cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation
of the air conditioning system.
F
Op
erate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month
to keep it in per fect working order.
F
e
ns
ure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly.
We r
ecommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter.
tha
nks to its
special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the
occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
F
t
o en
sure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have
it checked regularly as recommended in the warranty and maintenance record.
F
If t
he system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a P
eu
ge
Ot d
ealer or
a qualified workshop.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine,
the interior temperature is very high, first
ventilate the passenger compartment for
a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
the a
ir conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
the c
ondensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge
of water under the vehicle which is
perfectly normal.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the
air conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.
Stop & Start
the heating and air conditioning
s ystems only work when the engine
is running.
to ma
intain a comfortable
temperature in the passenger
compartment, you can temporarily
deactivate the Stop & Start system (see
the corresponding section).

When towing
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

etres, the maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10
% f
or every 1
0
00 metres of
altitude.
Side wind
F take into account the increased sensitivity
t o side wind.
Cooling
towing a trailer on a slope increases the
t emperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F
t
o lo
wer the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
the m
aximum towed load on a long incline
depends on the gradient and the ambient
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
F
If t
he warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
Braking
towing a trailer increases the braking distance.to av oid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing
v ehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling
o n the trailer and the hadlamp beam height
of your vehicle.
For more information on adjusting the
headlamp beam height, refer to the
corresponding section.
For more information on weights (and
the towed loads which apply to your
vehicle) refer to the corresponding
