t


gearbox) and the speed of the vehicle remains
below 6 mph (10 km/h).
th

e front parking sensors are interrupted if
the vehicle stops for more than five seconds
in for ward gear, if no further obstacles are
detected or when the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h). Remember to deactivate the system if
towing a trailer or caravan.In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered with mud,
ice or snow.
When the vehicle is moving at a speed
below 6 mph (10 km/h), certain sound
sources (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic
drill, etc.) may trigger the audible
signals of the parking sensor system.
In the event of an problem, when reverse gear
is engaged this lamp in the button flashes,
accompanied by an audible signal.

towing a trailer, a caravan, etc.
We recommend the use of genuine
PeugeOt towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved
from the design stage of your vehicle
and that the fitting of the towbar is
entrusted to a P
e

uge
Ot
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a
P
e

uge
Ot
dealer, it is imperative that
it is fitted following the manufacturer's
instructions.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it may
also be used for towing a trailer.
Driving with a trailer subjects the towing vehicle
to more significant stress and its driver must be
particularly careful.
For more advice on driving when towing, refer
to the corresponding section.
For more information on Petrol weights
or
Diesel weights and in particular the towed
loads which apply to your vehicle, refer to the
corresponding section.

Advice on driving 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 towing load must
be reduced by 10
% of the gt
W a
nd so on for
every 1
000 metres of altitude.
For more information on Petrol weights or
Diesel weights and in particular the towed
loads which apply to your vehicle, refer to the
corresponding section.
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 l
ower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
th

e maximum towed load on a long slope
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
F

I
f this message is displayed, stop your
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so .
Braking
towing a trailer increases the braking distance.to l
imit heat build-up in the brakes, use of the
engine brake 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 lighting and signalling on the trailer and the adjustment of the vehicle's
headlamps.
For more information on Headlamp
adjustment , refer to the corresponding
section.
If the message flashes slowly, wait for the
engine to cool before topping up the level, if
necessary.
If the message flashes rapidly, contact a
P
e

dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
