Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to 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 towable load on an incline
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
F

I
f this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
New vehicle
Do not pull a trailer before having
driven at least approximately 600
miles
(1,000


kilometres).
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 Headlamp
adjustment , refer to the corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal if a genuine PEUGEOT
towbar is used.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys contain an electronic chip which has
a secret code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised in order for
starting to be possible.
A few seconds after switching off the ignition,
this system locks the engine control system,
therefore preventing the engine from being
started in the event of a break-in.

It allows the use of the vehicle's electric
equipment or portable devices to be charged.
Driving

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 Headlamp
adjustment , 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.Fitting the towball

Practical information

Fitting directly to the roof
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as
close as possible to the roof.
Lash the load securely.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the effects of side winds
and the stability of the vehicle may be
affected.
On a long journey, check the security of
the load at every stop.
Remove the roof bars once they are no
longer needed.Sunroof
Check that the load does not pass below
the roof bars so that it does not impede
the movements of the sunroof.
You must only attach the transverse bars to
the four fixing points located in the roof frame.
These points are concealed by the vehicle
doors when the doors are closed.
The roof bar fixings have a stud which must be
inserted into the opening of each fixing point. Maximum load distributed across the
transverse roof bars, for a load height not
exceeding 40
cm (except bicycle carrier):
80 kg
.
For more information, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the
speed of the vehicle to the profile of the
road to avoid damaging the roof bars and
the vehicle's anchorage points.
For transporting objects which are longer
than the vehicle, refer to local legislation.
Bonnet
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid any risk of injury resulting from an
automatic change to START mode.
The location of the interior bonnet release
lever prevents opening of the bonnet when
the left-hand front door is shut.
When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the stay with
care (risk of burns), using the protected
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.
