Use the stowing rings on the rear floor to secure
loads.
As a safety precaution in case of sharp braking,
we recommend placing heavy objects as far
forwards as possible (i.e. near the cab).
We recommend using the stowing rings on the
floor to firmly secure the load.
When washing your vehicle, never clean
the inside directly using a water jet.
Recommendations on
loading
The weight of the load must comply with the Gross Train Weight (GTW).
For more information on Engine technical
data and towed loads , refer to the
corresponding section.
If you are using a carrying system (roof
bars/roof rack), comply with the
maximum loads associated with this system.
For more information on Roof bars/Roof
rack , refer to the corresponding section.
Make sure that the size, shape and
volume of the loads carried are
compatible with the highway code and safety
regulations and do not impair the driver’s field
of vision.
The load must be evenly distributed in the loading area so as not to interfere
with driving the vehicle.
Place the load close to the side panels, or
even push it against the side panels between
the wheel arches.
However, it is recommended that heavy
objects are placed as close to the cab as
possible as a precaution in case of sharp
braking.
Firmly secure all parts of the load using
the stowing rings on the floor of the
loading area.
For more information on the Interior
fittingsand in particular on the stowing rings,
refer to the corresponding section.
To avoid the risk of injury or accident, the load must be made stable so that it
cannot slide, tip over, fall or be thrown. To do
this, use only retaining straps that conform to
current standards (DIN for example).
For more information on putting straps in
place, refer to the manufacturer’s user guide.
There must not be any empty space between
the components of the load.
To prevent the load sliding, there must not be
any empty space between the load and the
panels of the vehicle.
As well as the straps, optimise the stability
of the load with stable handling equipment
(wedges, rigid blocks of wood or padding).
When washing your vehicle, never clean
the inside directly using a water jet.

keep the external air intake grilles at the base
of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the
air outlets and the air extractor in the boot
free from obstructions.
►
Do not cover the sunshine sensor located
on the dashboard; this sensor is used to
regulate the automatic air conditioning
system.
►
Operate the air conditioning system for at
least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to
keep it in perfect working order
.
►
If 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, enhancing the towing capacity.
Avoid driving for too long with the ventilation off or with prolonged operation
of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and
deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high
after the vehicle has stood for a long
time in the sunshine, air 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.
Condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge of
water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly
normal.
Servicing the ventilation and air
conditioning system
►
Ensure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly
.
We recommend using a composite passenger
compartment filter. Thanks to its special active
additive, this type of filter helps to purify the
air breathed by the occupants and keep the
passenger compartment clean (by reducing
allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
►
T
o ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Maintenance and Warranty Guide.

greenhouse gases
Depending on version and country of sale, the
air conditioning system may contain R134A
fluorinated greenhouse gases.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems
only operate when the engine is running.
Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system to maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment.
