The state of the system stays in the memory
when the ignition is switched off.The system will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed or a
bicycle carrier is fitted on a towbar (vehicle
fitted with a towbar installed in line with
the manufacturer's recommendations).
The parking sensors are deactivated while the
Park Assist system is measuring a space.
For more information on Park Assist , refer to
the corresponding section.

Visiopark 2
The vehicle has a camera at the front, fitted
in the grille, and a camera at the rear, located
close to the tailgate opening control.
Using these cameras, the system displays
the vehicle's near surroundings in the touch
screen, offering views from the rear of the
vehicle (rear vision), when reverse gear is
engaged and views from the front of the vehicle
(front vision), when the gearbox is in neutral or
a gear is engaged.
Rear vision
If a trailer or a bicycle carrier is fitted to
the towbar, the zone behind the vehicle on
the top view goes dark.
The surroundings are reconstructed by the
front camera only.
The rear vision views are similar to those for
the Visiopark 1.
For more information on Visiopark 1 , refer to
the corresponding section.
The system activates automatically when
reverse gear is engaged. The system is deactivated:

Towing a trailer
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it may
also be used for towing a trailer.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
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted by a PEUGEOT
dealer, it must still be fitted in accordance
with the vehicle manufacturer's
instructions. Please respect the maximum authorised
towable weights, indicated on the
registration certificate or in your vehicle’s
technical data.
For more information on Weights
(and the
towed loads which apply to your vehicle)
refer to the corresponding section.
Vehicle equipped with motorised

when using the towing device:
-
p

lease deactivate the "Hands-Free
Tailgate Access" function in advance in
your vehicle's configuration menu,
-

o
r move the electronic key away from
the recognition zone, with the tailgate

Trailers with LED lamps are not
compatible with the wiring harness of this
device.
To know the technical features, and in
particular the towable weights for your
vehicle, refer to the corresponding section.
For advice on driving safely when To w i n g
a trailer , refer to the corresponding
section.
A.
Locked position; the locking wheel is in
contact with the towball (no gap).
B. Unlocked position; the locking wheel is
no longer in contact with the towball (gap
of around 5 mm). Before each use
Check that the towball is correctly fitted,
verifying the follow points:
-
t
he green mark on the locking wheel
is in line with the green mark on the
towball,
-
t
he locking wheel is in contact with the
towball (position A ),
-
t
he security key lock is on and the key
removed; the locking wheel can no
longer be operated,
-
t
he towball must not be able to move in
its carrier; test by shaking it with your
hand.
If the towball is not locked, the trailer can
detach – accident risk! During use
Never release the locking system with a
trailer or load carrier on the towball.
Never exceed the maximum authorised
weight for the vehicle – the Gross Train
Weight or GTW.
It is essential that the maximum
authorised load be complied with on the
towing device: if it is exceeded, this device
may detach from the vehicle, which is a
serious accident risk.
Check that the trailer lamps work
c o r r e c t l y.
Before setting off, check the adjustment of
the headlamp beam height.
For more information on Adjusting the
headlamp beam height
, refer to the
corresponding section.
Following use
When travelling without a trailer or load
on a towbar-mounted carrier, the towball
must be removed and the protective plug
inserted in the carrier. This measure
applies particularly where the towball
might obscure visibility of the number
plate or its lighting.
