Engine characteristics
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
e
u
ropean legislation
(Directive


1999/99/
eC
).

Weights
The kerb weight is equal to the unladen
weight + driver (75 kg).
The
g
T
W 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
g
T
W limit, on condition
that the
g
V
W of the towing vehicle is reduced
by the same amount.
The recommended nose weight is the vertical
load on the towbar ball (removable with or
without tools). 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.
If the ambient temperature is high, it
is recommended that the engine be
allowed to idle for 1 to 2 minutes after
the vehicle comes to a stop, to facilitate
its cooling. 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.
GTW : gross train weight, the maximum authorised weight of vehicle
plus trailer.
Weights and towed
loads
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.

The Active Safety Brake system does not
operate:
- if the front bumper is damaged,
- if the system has been triggered in the last
10 seconds,
- if the electronic stability control system has
a fault.Limits of operation
It is recommended that the system be
deactivated in the vehicle configuration menu
in the following cases:
- if the windscreen has impact damage close
to the detection camera,
- when towing a trailer or caravan,
- when a load on the roof rack extends
beyond the windscreen (for example: long
objects),
- when the vehicle is being towed, with the
engine running,
- when a "space-saver" type spare wheel is
fitted (if your vehicle has one),
- when on a rolling road for a service in a
workshop,
- when in an automatic car wash,
- if the brake lamps are not working.
Following an impact, the system
is automatically disabled; contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked.
Collision Risk Alert
Depending on the degree of risk of collision
detected by the system and the alert threshold
chosen, different levels of alert can be
triggered and displayed in the instrument panel
or the head-up display.
This level of alert is based on the inter-vehicle
time between your vehicle and the vehicle
ahead. Level 1
: visual alert only, warning you
that the vehicle ahead is very close.
A message on your vigilance is
displayed as you close on the vehicle
ahead.
This information also appears in the
head-up display.
For more information on the Head-up
display
, refer to the corresponding
section.
