Limit the causes of excess 
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the 
heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as 
close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce 
wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle 
carrier, trailer...). u
s
 e a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit 
your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations 
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, 
referring to the label in the door aperture, 
driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-
 
b
 efore a long journey,
-
 
a
 t each change of season,
-
 
a
 fter a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on 
any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine 
oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment 
filter...) and observe the schedule of operations 
recommended in the manufacturer's service 
schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR 
system is faulty your vehicle becomes polluting; 
go to a P
e
ugeo
T d
 ealer or a qualified 
workshop without delay to have the emissions 
of nitrogen oxides brought back to the legal 
level. When refuelling, do not continue after the third 
cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after 
the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you 
will see the fuel consumption settle down to a 
consistent average.

Anti-lock braking system 
(ABS) and electronic brake 
force distribution (EBFD)
In emergency braking, press ver y 
firmly and maintain this pressure. When changing wheels (tyres and 
rims), ensure that these are approved 
for your vehicle.
Normal operation of the ABS may make 
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake 
pedal.
The fixed illumination of this warning 
lamp indicates that there is a fault 
with the ABS.
The vehicle retains conventional 
braking. Drive carefully at moderate 
speed.
When this warning lamp comes on, 
coupled with the STOP  and ABS 
warning lamps, accompanied by 
an audible signal and a message, 
it indicates that there is a fault 
with the electronic brake force 
distribution (
e
B
FD).
You must stop as soon as it is 
safe to do so.
In both cases, have the system 
checked by a P
e
ugeo
T d
ealer or 
a qualified workshop as soon as 
possible.
Intelligent traction  
control
If fitted to your vehicle, it has a system to help 
driving on snow: intelligent traction control .
This system detects situations of difficult 
sur face adhesion that could make it difficult to 
move off or make progress on deep fresh snow 
or compacted snow.
In these situations, intelligent traction 
control  limits the amount of wheel slip to 
provide the best traction and trajectory control 
for your vehicle.
The use of snow tyres is strongly 
recommended on sur faces offering low 
levels of grip. 
Safety

Traveller-VP_en_Chap06_conduite_ed01-2016
To assure the durability of your vehicle and 
your safety, remember that certain precautions, 
described hereafter, should be taken when 
driving your vehicle:
Load the vehicle correctly
With a load carried, the vehicle must remain 
within the maximum authorised weight, the 
gro
ss Vehicle Weight.
To avoid upsetting the balance of the vehicle, 
the load should be centred and the heaviest 
part placed on the floor in front of the rear 
wheels.
Manoeuve cautiously,  
at low speed
The dimensions of your vehicle differ from 
those of a light vehicle, in width, in height, as 
well as in length, and some obstacles will be 
more difficult to notice.
Manoeuvre slowly.
Before turning, check that there are no 
obstacles at mid-height along the sides.
Before reversing, check that there are no 
obstacles, particularly at high level behind the 
vehicle.
Be aware of the external dimensions, if ladders 
are fitted. It is inadvisable to place heavy loads on a roof 
rack.
Loading the roof rack also requires you not 
to exceed the maximum load on the roof rack 
anchorages. 
o
b
 serve the maximum authorised 
weight, available from P
e
 ugeo
T
  dealers.
Loads must be securely lashed down.
Cargo that is not properly secured inside the 
vehicle can adversely affect the handling of the 
vehicle and create the risk of accident.
If your vehicle is fitted with a drop-side back, 
the height and width of the load must remain 
within the overall dimensions of the vehicle.
Drive the vehicle in a 
prudent and efficient way
Take corners gently.
Anticipate the need to brake as the stopping 
distance is increased, particularly on wet or icy 
roads.
Be aware of the effect of side winds on the 
vehicle.
ef
fective eco-driving saves fuel; accelerate 
progressively, anticipate the need to slow down 
and adapt your speed to suit the situation.
Indicate changes of direction well in advance 
so that you are seen by other road users.
Take care
The tyres must be inflated to at least the 
pressures indicated on the label, even over-
inflated by 0.2 to 0.3 bar for long journeys.
After ensuring that no obstacle might prevent 
closing, guide the movement of the door at the 
right speed until it closes.

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
 
000
 
metres, the maximum towed load must 
be reduced by 10
 
% for every 1
 
000 metres of 
altitude.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity  to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the 
temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling 
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F
 
T
 o lower the engine speed, reduce your 
speed.
The maximum 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
 
I
 f the 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 avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of 
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing  vehicle and of the trailer, observing the 
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam 
height of your vehicle.
For more information on Weights
, refer 
to the corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be 
deactivated automatically to avoid the 
audible signal if a genuine P
e
ugeo
T 
t
owbar is used.
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. For more information on Adjusting the 
headlamp beam height
, refer to the 
corresponding section.

Under-inflation detection
The system monitors the pressures in the four 
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four 
wheel speed sensors with reference values, 
which must be reinitialised ever y time the 
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel 
changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it 
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one 
or more tyres. The under-inflation detection system 
does not replace the need for vigilance 
on the part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to 
check the tyre pressures (including the 
spare wheel) every month as well as 
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs 
road holding, extends braking distances 
and causes premature tyre wear, 
particularly under arduous conditions 
(high loading, high speed, long journey).
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The inflation pressures defined for 
your vehicle can be found on the tyre 
pressure label.
For more information on the 
Identification markings, refer to the 
corresponding section.
Tyre pressures should be checked 
when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle 
stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of 
less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate 
speeds).
ot
her wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to 
the pressures shown on the label.
Driving with under-inflated tyres 
increases fuel consumption.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be 
reinitialised after fitting or removing 
snow chains.
Spare wheel
The steel spare wheel does not have an 
under-inflation detection sensor.
