Load distribution
F D istribute 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. The maximum
load which can be towed must be reduced by
10% per 1,000
metres of altitude.
Use towing devices and their original
harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. It
is recommended that the installation be
per formed by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towing device is not fitted by
a PEUGEOT dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Certain driving assistance or manoeuvring
assistance functions are automatically
deactivated if an approved towbar is used. Obser ve the maximum authorised towable
weight, indicated on your vehicle's
registration certificate, the manufacturer's
label and in the Technical data
section of
this guide.
Complying with the maximum
authorised nose weight (towball)
also includes the use of accessories
(bicycle carriers, tow boxes, etc.).
Obser ve the legislation in force in the
country in which you are driving.

verifying the following points:
-
t
he green mark on the locking wheel is
visible.
-

t
he safety lock on the locking wheel is
facing rearward.
-

t
he safety lock is closed and the key
removed; the locking wheel can no longer

When hooking up the towbar, do not forget to
connect the electrical wiring harness.
Fitting
During use
Never unlock the device when a trailer or
load carrier is fitted to the swan neck.
After use
For journeys made without a trailer or load
carrier, the swan neck must be removed
and the blanking plug inserted in the
carrier. This measure applies particularly if
the swan neck could hinder visibility of the
number plate or lighting.

Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly, in line
with the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Top them up if necessary, unless other wise
indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. If you have to remove/refit the engine
cover, handle it with care to avoid
damaging the fixing clips.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health
or indeed very corrosive. Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop and dispose of it in
the containers reser ved for this purpose.
Oil level
It is recommended that you check the oil every
3,000
miles (5,000 km) and that you top it up
between two oil changes, if necessary.
Check the level with the vehicle level, engine
cold, using the dipstick.

2 marks on the dipstick:

If you fill past this mark, consult

workshop. An excess of oil could
cause engine damage.
B = minimum
If this mark is not reached, top up the level
through the oil filler cap, using the type of oil
approved for your engine.
Never allow the level to fall below this mark.
To maintain the reliability of engines and
emission control systems, the use of additives
in engine oil is prohibited.
Practical information

137
This must be done at the inter vals specified in
the manufacturer's servicing schedule. Ask for
advice from a PEUGEOT dealer.
Engine oil grade
In all cases, the chosen oil must meet
the requirements in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Brake fluid level
Coolant levelWhen the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the electric fan. This
may operate with the ignition off; furthermore,
because the cooling system is under pressure,
wait for at least one hour after the engine has
stopped before carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
by a quarter of a turn to allow the pressure to
drop. Once the pressure has dropped, remove
the cap and top up the level with the coolant.
If coolant has to be added frequently, this
indicates a failure which must be checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.
To p p i n g u p
Oil change
The brake fluid must be changed at the
inter vals prescribed according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use brake fluid recommended by the
manufacturer, meeting the DOT4 standards.
The level must be between the MIN and MA X
marks on the reservoir.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this indicates
a malfunction which must be checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
Only use coolant recommended by the
manufacturer.
Otherwise you risk causing serious damage to
your engine.

qualified workshop.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level ground
with the engine cold. Unscrew the cap
integrated with the gauge and check the level
which must be between the MIN and MA X
marks.

Screenwash fluid level
For optimal cleaning quality and safety, we
recommend that you use the PEUGEOT range
of products.
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.
Capacity of the screenwash reser voir:
approximately 3

litres.
Diesel additive level (Diesel
engine with particle filter)
A low additive level is indicated by
illumination of the Ser vice warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message on the screen.
If the message is still displayed and the Ser vice
warning lamp remains lit, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
To p p i n g u p
This additive must be topped up without delay
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Checks
Battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check regularly that the
terminals are correctly tightened
(versions without quick release
terminals) and that the connections
are clean.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12
V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle
services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
Brake disc/drum wear
For information on checking
brake disc/drum wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be checked, even between two
services.
This system must be checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Once the engine is started, this signals that
the particle filter is starting to saturate (in
conditions of urban driving of exceptionally long
duration: low speeds, traffic jams, etc.).
To regenerate the filter, you are advised to
drive as soon as possible, as traffic conditions
allow, at a speed of at least 37

mph (around
60

km/h) for at least five minutes (until the
Ser vice warning lamp goes off and the
message disappears).
Relay noises may be heard under the
dashboard during regeneration of the particle
f i l t e r. At the start of winter, have your battery checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
