Driving recommendations
F Observe the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
F
M
onitor your environment and keep your
hands on the wheel to be able to react to
anything that may happen any time.
F
D
rive smoothly, anticipate the need for
braking and maintain a longer safety
distance, especially in bad weather.
F
S
top the vehicle to carry out operations
that require close attention (such as
adjustments).
F
D
uring long trips, take a break every two
hours.
To assure the durability of your vehicle and
for safety reasons, remember that certain
precautions, described hereafter, should be
taken when driving your vehicle:
Manoeuvre cautiously, at low
speed
The dimensions of this vehicle differ greatly
from those of a light vehicle, in width, in height,
as well as in length, and some obstacles will be
more difficult to notice.
Manoeuvre slowly.
Before turning, check that there are no
obstacles at mid-height along the sides.
Before reversing, check that there are no
obstacles, particularly at high level behind the
vehicle.
Be aware of the external dimensions, if ladders
are fitted.
Drive the vehicle in a cautious
and efficient way
Take corners gently.
Anticipate the need to brake as the stopping
distance is increased, particularly on wet or icy
roads.
Be aware of the effect of side winds on the
vehicle.
Be careful
The tyres must be inflated to at least the
pressures indicated on the label, even over-
inflated by 0.2 to 0.3 bar for long journeys.
Important!
Never leave the engine running in
a closed space without sufficient
ventilation. Internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases such as carbon
monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!
In severe wintry conditions (temperature
below -23°C), let the engine run for 4
minutes before moving off, to ensure the
correct operation and durability of the
mechanical components of your vehicle
(engine and gearbox). Never drive with the parking brake
applied
. Risk of overheating and damage
to the braking system!
Do not park the vehicle or leave the
engine running on a flammable sur face
(dr y grass, dead leaves, etc.). The
exhaust system of your vehicle is very
hot, even several minutes after the engine
stops. Risk of fire!
Never leave a vehicle unattended with
the engine running. If you have to leave
your vehicle with the engine running, apply
the parking brake and put the gearbox into
neutral or position N or P (depending on
the type of gearbox).
Never leave children inside the vehicle
unsupervised .
On flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded
roads, as this could cause serious damage
to the engine or gearbox, as well as to the
electrical systems of your vehicle.
Driving

139
In case of towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
requires extra care from the driver.Respect the maximum towable weights.
At altitude:
reduce the maximum load
by 10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the
density of the air decreases with altitude
and the performance of the engine
reduces.
New vehicle: do not pull a trailer before
having driven at least 620 miles (1,000
kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
F Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight (at the point
where it joins your vehicle) approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it.
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 signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height of your
vehicle.
If a genuine PEUGEOT towing device
is used, the rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill increases the
temperature of the coolant. The maximum
towable load depends on the gradient and the
exterior temperature. The cooling capacity of
the fan does not increase with engine speed.
F
T
o reduce the heating up, reduce the
vehicle speed and the engine speed.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
If you are obliged to drive on a flooded road:
F
c
heck that the depth of water does not
exceed 15
cm, taking account of waves that
might be generated by other users,
F
d
eactivate the Stop & Start function,
F
d
rive as slowly as possible without stalling.
In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10
km/h),
F
d
o not stop and do not switch off the engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety
conditions allow, make several light brake
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt about the state of your vehicle,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

If your vehicle's AdBlue® tank is
completely empty – which is confirmed
by the message "Top up AdBlue: Starting
impossible", you must top up with at least
5 litres.
Important: in the event of a top-up after
a breakdown because of a lack of
AdBlue, you must wait around 5 minutes
before switching on the ignition, without
opening the driver’s door, locking
the vehicle, introducing the key into
the ignition switch, or introducing
the key of the Keyless Entr y and
Star ting system into the passenger
compartment .

seconds before starting the engine.
Advice on care
General recommendations on the care and
maintenance of your vehicle are given in the
warranty and maintenance record. Observe the following recommendations to avoid damaging your vehicle:
-
D
o not clean your headlamps with a dry or abrasive cloth, nor with detergent or solvent
products. Use a sponge and soapy water or a pH neutral product.
-
W
hen using a high-pressure washer on stubborn dirt, avoid prolonged use on the
headlamps, the lamps and their edges to avoid damaging their lacquer finish and seals.
-
N
ever use an abrasive sponge to clean persistent dirt, as this may scratch the paint
sur face. Use a soft cloth with soapy water instead.
-
W
hen washing your vehicle, never clean the interior with a water jet.
-
W
hen washing your vehicle in an automatic roller-brush car wash, be sure to lock your
doors and, depending on version, remove the key and deactivate the " Hands-Free
Access " system.
-
N
ever use high-pressure washing to clean the engine compartment, in order to avoid
damaging the electrical units.
-
L
iquids carried in an open vessel (e.g. a cup or mug) could be spilt, presenting a risk of
damage on contact with the controls in the dashboard and centre console. Be careful.
Depending on version, in order to avoid damaging or unpeeling the stickers on the bodywork,
you are strongly advised against using high-pressure cleaners to wash your vehicle. It is
recommended that you wash it using a high-flow water jet and rinse the vehicle down using
demineralised water.
Only a microfibre cloth is recommended for wiping your vehicle; it must be clean and used
g e nt l y.
It is always preferable to have paint repairs carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
