With the two-seat front bench seat, the driver's
seat control switches the heating on or off for the
bench seat’s outer seat.
Do not use the function when the seat
is not occupied.
Reduce the heating intensity as soon as
possible.
When the seat and passenger compartment
have reached a satisfactory temperature,
switch the function off; reducing electricity
consumption in turn decreases fuel
consumption.
Prolonged use of the heated seats is not
recommended for those with sensitive
skin.
There is a risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (illness, taking
medication, etc.).
To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent
a short circuit:
–
do not place sharp or heavy objects on the
seat,
–
do not kneel or stand on the seat,
–
do not spill liquids onto the seat,
–
never use the heating function if the seat
is wet.

2-seat front bench seat
Central seat
Table position
► To lower the backrest, pull the tab on the
lower edge of the seat.

T
o return the backrest to the sitting position,
stow the table, then guide it until it locks.
Take care not to jam the tab under the seat
cushion while moving the backrest.
Never use the table while the vehicle is
being driven.
In the event of sudden braking or impact, any
objects on the table might become dangerous
projectiles that could cause injury.

Side seat
Retractable position
► Pull the tongue on the top edge of the seat

assembly
.
It is placed in the floor of the front seat and thus
forms a continuous flat floor with the loading
space.
This position allows transporting long cargo
inside the vehicle with the doors closed.
When retracted, the maximum weight on the
backrest is 50 kg.
To replace the seat, lift the backrest until the seat
locks into position on the floor.
Never put your hand underneath the seat
cushion to guide the seat downwards or
upwards, you could get your fingers trapped.
Always just use the strap.
Before carrying out these manoeuvres, check
that nothing and nobody is obstructing the
moving elements and their locking.
Folded position

Ease of use and comfort
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.
For the Multi-Flex bench
seat and the Crew cab
Do not place sharp or pointed objects in
the protective cover to avoid damaging it.
Do not place objects on the
dashboard.
Deactivate the front passenger airbag when
carrying long objects.
For more information on Deactivating
the front passenger airbag, refer to the
corresponding section.
Avoid placing short or heavy loads in the protective cover; use the loading area
whenever possible.
Avoid anchoring loads or hanging items on the wall of the partition.
For safety reasons, ensure that small objects
do not slip through the gaps of about 3 cm
between the partition and the vehicle's
bodywork.

Ease of use and comfort
No passengers must be allowed to sit in
the central seat if the backrest of the
right-hand outer seat is lowered and the
partition flap is open.
When loading long objects, take care to
install the protective cover correctly.
Read the following procedure carefully.
►
Fold
down the outer passenger seat backrest.
► Install the protective cover by fastening its
4 snap hooks to the 4 anchor points on the
partition.
► Pull out the head restraint rods from the
folded backrest, leaving two notches visible.
►
Load the desired objects.
The maximum load permitted on the folded backrest is 100 kg.
► Place the strap of the cover around the head
restraint.
►
T
ighten the strap using the adjustable section
in order to correctly retain the items that have
been loaded inside the cover.
The protective cover may be left in place after use.
Regularly check the condition of the
protective cover.
When signs of wear and tear appear, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer to have it replaced by a
protective cover that meets the specifications
and qualities required by PEUGEOT and your
vehicle.
Crew cab
A movable partition that can be placed behind
the first or second row of seats protects the
driver and passengers against the risk of load
movement.
A hatch in the partition can be opened to allow
long items to be carried.
A protective cover is supplied with the vehicle to
enable long items to be carried safely.
Moving the partition
Moving the partition forwards
► Fold the backrests of the row 2 seats and
check that they are properly folded. If necessary,
adjust the position of the row 1 seats (moving
them forwards).
► Release the upper latches A and B.
► Check that the latches C and D are retracted.
► Slide the partition forwards.
► Lock the lower latches C and D and then
check that the locating pins are correctly
engaged in their housings.
► Lock the upper latches A and B.
Moving the partition backwards
► Release the upper latches A and B.
► Release the lower latches C and D.
► Slide the partition backwards.
► Lock the upper latches A and B.

The upper stops may be adjusted if: – excessive force is needed to operate
the upper latches A
and B.
–
there is noise while driving, caused by
excessive play
.
When the partition is locked behind the
row 2 or row 1 seats, an engagement
noise tells you that the upper latches are
closed.
A visible mark and a coloured mark show the
position of the latches.
The partition must not be moved with the latches extended - risk of scratches or
damage to the plastic trims!
The partition must never be removed to convert the vehicle from a commercial
vehicle to a passenger vehicle.
This would pose a risk to the safety of users
due to the absence of a child lock on the
tailgate (mandatory on passenger vehicles).
Opening/closing the hatch
► Open/close the hatch using the latch.
► Use the stay to keep it in the open position.
Always close the hatch and raise the backrest of the outer passenger seat(s)
(depending on the position of the partition)
when you are not carrying a long load.
Avoid placing loads on the hatch sill bar. Whenever possible, place loads on the
folded-down seat backrests.
