Advice
In order for these systems to be fully effective,
follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F
T
o ensure that the air is distributed evenly,
keep the external air intake grilles at the
base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the
vents, the air outlets and the air extractor
located in the back free from obstructions.
F

D
o not cover the sunshine sensor, located
at the top of the windscreen; this is used
for regulation of the air conditioning
system.
F

O
perate the air conditioning system for
at least 5 to 10
minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in per fect working order.
F

T
o prevent condensation or deteriorating
air quality inside the passenger
compartment, you should not deactivate
the system for too long or avoid extended
operation of the air recirculation system
when driving.
F

E
nsure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the
filter elements replaced regularly.
If after an extended period parked in the sun, the
interior temperature is very high, first ventilate
the passenger compartment for a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high enough
to quickly change the air in the passenger
compartment.
The air conditioning system does not contain
chlorine and does not present any danger to the
ozone layer.
Contains fluorinated greenhouse gas
R13 4A
Depending on version and country
of sale, the air conditioning system
contains fluorinated greenhouse gas
R13 4A .
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment filter. Thanks to
its special active additive, it contributes
to the purification of the air breathed by
the occupants and the cleanliness of the
passenger compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).
F

T

o ensure correct operation of the air
conditioning system, you are also advised
to have it checked regularly according
to the warranty and maintenance record
recommendations.
F

I

f the system does not produce cold air,
switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep
gradient in high temperatures, switching off
the air conditioning increases the available
engine power and so improves the towing
ability.
The condensation created by the air conditioning
results in a discharge of water under the vehicle
when stationary which is per fectly normal.
Stop & Star t
The heating and air conditioning systems
only work when the engine is running.
To maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment, you may
temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system.
For more information on Stop & Star t ,
refer to the corresponding section.

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.
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. There is a risk of poisoning and
death!
In very severe wintry conditions
(temperatures below -23°C), to guarantee
correct operation and the longevity of
the mechanical elements of your vehicle,
engine and gearbox, the engine must be
left running for 4
minutes before driving.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied
– Risk of overheating and damage to the
braking system!
As the exhaust system of your vehicle
is very hot, even several minutes after
switching off the engine, never park or run
the engine on inflammable sur faces (dry
grass, fallen leaves, etc.) – Risk of fire!
Never leave a vehicle unsuper vised 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.
Driving 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. If you are obliged to drive on a flooded road:
-

c
heck that the depth of water does not
exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that
might be generated by other users,
-
d
eactivate the Stop & Start function,
-
d
rive as slowly as possible without stalling.
In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h),
-
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 on the state of your vehicle, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.In case of towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
requires extra care from the driver.

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 620
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
beam height adjustment , refer to the
corresponding section.
Certain driving or manoeuvring aids are
automatically disabled if an approved
towbar is used.
If the exterior temperature is high, it is
recommended that the engine is allowed
