professional to check that your electricity supply
is compatible and carry out any necessary repairs.
–
If the circ
uit-breaker has not tripped, stop
using the charging cable and contact a dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Practical information07
►  If the vehicle is unlocked, lock it and then
unlock it.
If selective unlocking of the doors is
activated, press the unlocking button on
the remote control twice to disconnect the
nozzle.
The red indicator lamp in the flap goes out to
confirm that the nozzle is unlocked.
►  Within 30 seconds, remove the charging
nozzle.
Domestic charging (mode 2)
The end of charging is confirmed when the
green CHARGE indicator lamp on the control unit
comes on fixed and the green light guides in the
flap come on fixed.
►  After disconnection, replace the protective
cover over the nozzle and close the charging flap.
►  Disconnect the control unit's charging cable
from the domestic socket.
Accelerated charging (mode 3)
The end of charging is confirmed by the
accelerated charging unit (Wallbox) and when the
green light guides in the flap come on fixed.
►  After disconnection, replace the nozzle on to
the charging unit and close the charging flap.
Deferred charging
By default, the deferred charging start time is set
to be around midnight. Depending on equipment, this time can be
changed.
Settings
► 
In the Energy touch screen application,
select the Charging tab.
►  Set the charging start time.
►  Press OK.
The setting is saved in the system.
You can also programme the deferred
charging function using a smartphone, via
the MyDS App application.
For more information on Remotely operable
additional functions, refer to the corresponding
section.
Activation
►  After programming the deferred charging,
connect the vehicle to the desired charging
equipment.
►  Press this button in the flap within one
minute to activate the deferred charging
(confirmed by the light guides coming on in blue).
Towing device
Load distribution
►  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. The maximum towable
load must be reduced by 10% per 1,000 metres of
altitude.
Use genuine towing devices and wiring
harnesses approved by the Manufacturer.
We recommend having them fitted by a dealer
or a qualified workshop.
If not fitted by a dealer, they must still be
fitted in accordance with the Manufacturer's
instructions.
Important: if the vehicle has a motorised
tailgate and Hands-Free Tailgate Access
function, and a towing device has been fitted
outside the dealer network, it is essential to
visit a dealer or a qualified workshop to have
the detection system recalibrated - risk of
malfunction of the Hands-Free Tailgate Access
function.
Certain driving or manoeuvring aid functions
are automatically deactivated while an
approved towing system is in use.
For more information about driving with a
towing device fitted to a trailer and associated
with the Trailer stability assist, refer to the
corresponding section.
Comply with the maximum authorised
towable weight, as indicated on your
vehicle's registration certificate, on the
manufacturer's label and in the Technical data
section of this guide.

156
Practical information07
If using accessories attached to the
towing device (e.g. bicycle carriers, tow
boxes):
–

Comply with the maximum authorised no
se
weight.
–

Do no
t transport more than 4 conventional
bicycles or 2 electric bicycles.
When loading bicycles onto a bicycle carrier
on a towball, be sure to place the heaviest
bicycles as close as possible to the vehicle.
Observe the legislation in force in the
country where you are driving.
Vehicle equipped with motorised tailgate
with hands-free function (Hands-Free
Tailgate Access)
To avoid unintentionally opening the motorised
tailgate when operating the towing device:
–

Deactiv
ate this function in advance in the
vehicle's configuration application.
–

O

r remove the electronic key from the
recognition zone, with the tailgate closed.
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles
A rechargeable hybrid vehicle with 20"
wheels (R20) cannot be fitted with a towing
device.
It is therefore not possible to tow a trailer or
caravan.
Towing device with
retractable ball joint
When this towing device is not in use, it is folded
away underneath the rear bumper.
No tools are required to install or stow it.
Before any operation, the vehicle must be
stationary with the parking brake applied.
The area close to the exhaust pipe may reach a
high temperature: risk of burns!
Vehicle equipped with motorised tailgate
with hands-free function (Hands-Free
Tailgate Access)
To avoid unintentional opening of the tailgate,
follow the recommendations on the Towing
device by referring to the corresponding
section.
Unlocking handle
The towball is locked in either the storage
position or the usage position.
The unlocking handle is behind the rear bumper,
protected by a storage case.
To reach the handle:


►  Pass your hand flat under the rear bumper
with the palm facing upwards.
►  Insert your hand into the storage case and
grasp the handle.
To unlock the towball:
►  Pull the handle firmly downwards to release it.


The towball hangs, hooked onto its shaft.

In the event of a breakdown08
Referring to the relevant section, reinitialise
certain equipment:
–
Electronic k
ey.
–

Sunroo
f and electric blind.
–

Electric windo
ws.
–

Da
te and time.
–

Pre
set radio stations.
After reconnecting the battery, the
message "Collision risk detection system
fault" is displayed on the instrument panel
when the ignition is switched on. This
operation is perfectly normal. The message
will disappear while driving.
Towing the vehicle
General recommendations
Observe the legislation in force in the
country where you are driving.
Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is
higher than that of the towed vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of the
towed vehicle and must have a valid driving
licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on
the ground, always use an approved towing
arm; rope and straps are prohibited.
The towing vehicle must move off gently.
When the vehicle is towed with its engine
off, there is no longer braking and steering
assistance.
A professional towing service must be
called if:
–

B

roken down on a motorway or main road.
–

No
t possible to put the gearbox into neutral,
unlock the steering, or release the parking
brake.
– Not possible to tow a vehicle with an
automatic gearbox, with the engine running.
–

T
owing with only two wheels on the ground.
–

Four-wheel driv
e vehicle.
–

No appro
ved towbar available.
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles
Before any intervention, with the ignition
on, depress the brake pedal and select mode
N, then switch off the hybrid system (READY
indicator lamp off).
Always call on professionals for recovery of the
vehicle on a flatbed lorry or trailer.
Use the towing eye only to free the vehicle
if it is stuck, or to secure it for recovery on a
flatbed lorry or trailer.

Engine technical data and
towed loads
Engines
The engine characteristics are given in the
vehicle's registration document, as well as in
sales brochures.
Only the values available at the time of
publication are presented in the tables.
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop to obtain
missing values.
The maximum power corresponds to the
value type-approved on a test bed, under
conditions defined by European legislation
(Directive 1999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Weights and towed loads
The weights and towed loads relating to
the vehicle are indicated on the registration
document, as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also indicated on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
For more information, contact a dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The GTW (Gross Train Weight) and towed load
values indicated are valid up to a maximum
altitude of 1,000 metres. The towed load value
must be reduced by 10% for each additional 1,000
metres of altitude.
The maximum authorised nose weight
corresponds to the weight permitted on the
towball.
When exterior temperatures are high, the
vehicle performance may be limited in
order to protect the engine. When the exterior
temperature is higher than 37°C, reduce the
towed weight.
Towing even with a lightly loaded vehicle
can adversely affect its road holding.
Braking distances are increased when towing
a trailer.
When using a vehicle to tow, never exceed a
speed of 62 mph (100 km/h) (observe the local
legislation in force).
