(left-hand side).

Changing a fuse

Before changing a fuse, you must

establish the cause of the fault and

have it corrected. The fuse numbers

are indicated on the fuse box.

Always change a faulty fuse for one

of the same rating (same colour).

Use the special pliers located on the

inside of the fasca fuse box cover,

Before disconnecting the

battery, you must wait for

2 minutes after switching off

the ignition.

BATTERY

To charge the battery using a

battery charger:

- Disconnect the battery starting with

the negative (-) terminal,

- Follow the instructions for use giv-

en by the battery charger manufac-

turer,

- Check that the terminals and con-

nectors are clean; if they are covered

with sulphate (white or greenish de-

posit), disconnect them and clean

them,

Never disconnect a terminal when

the engine is running.

Never charge a battery without ﬁrst

disconnecting the terminals.

Close the windows and sunroof be-

fore disconnecting the battery. If they

do not operate normally following re-

connection of the battery, they must

be reinitialised (see sections "Reini-

tialisation of the electric windows"

and "Sunroof").

After every reconnection of the bat-

tery, switch on the ignition and wait

1 minute before starting to allow the

electronic systems to be initialised. If

slight difficulties are experienced

after this, please contact a PEUGEOT

dealer.

- Reconnect the battery starting with

the negative (-) terminal.

Special front windscreen wiper

position

To start the vehicle from

another battery:

Connect the red cable to the positive (+)

terminals of the two batteries,

- Connect one end of the green or

black cable to the negative (-) ter-

minal of the slave battery,

- Connect the other end of the green

or black cable to an earth point on

the broken down vehicle as far as

possible from the battery,

Within one minute of switching off

the ignition, operate the wipers

stalk to position the wiper blades

in the centre of the windscreen

(maintenance position).

Following disconnection of the bat-

tery, the remote control key and the

GPS satellite navigation system must

be reinitialised (see corresponding

section).

Changing a wiper blade

Lift the wiper arm, then unclip the

blade and remove it.

Fit the new blade and push back

the arm.

Note: the shortest blade is ﬁtted on

the vehicle’s right-hand windscreen

wiper arm.

To return the windscreen wipers

to their normal position, switch on

the ignition and operate the wiper

stalk.

- Operate the starter, let the engine

The batteries contain harm-

ful substances such as sul-

phuric acid and lead. They

must be disposed of in ac-

cordance with regulations and must

never be discarded with household

waste.

Take used remote control and vehi-

tion point.

- Wait for the engine to return to idle,

then disconnect the cables.

It is advisable to disconnect the

battery if the vehicle is not to be

used for a period of more than

one month.

ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION

LOAD REDUCTION FUNCTION

After the engine has stopped, certain

functions (windscreen wiper, electric

windows, sunroof, courtesy lights,

audio equipment, telephone, dipped

headlamps, etc.) can only be used

for a combined duration of approxi-

mately thirty minutes, to prevent dis-

charging the battery.

Once the thirty minutes are over, a

switching to economy mode mes-

sage appears on the multi-function

display and the active functions are

put on standby.

When driving, certain functions (air

conditioning, heated rear screen,

heating system for passenger com-

partment of diesel vehicles, etc.) may

be switched off temporarily, depend-

ing on the level of battery charge.

Reactivation of these functions is au-

tomatic, once the battery charge is

sufﬁcient.

Note: at the risk of discharging the

battery, the functions that have been

switched off may be reactivated

manually.

These functions are reactivated au-

tomatically next time the vehicle is

driven.

In order to resume the use of these

functions immediately, the engine

must be started and left to run for a

few minutes.

The time available to you will then be

double the duration for which the en-

gine is left running. However, this pe-

riod will always be between ﬁve and

thirty minutes.

Note: if the telephone is be-

ing used when economy

mode starts, it will still be

possible to ﬁnish the call.

A ﬂat battery prevents the

engine from starting.

TOWING YOUR VEHICLE

Lifting (2 wheels only

on the ground)

It is preferable to raise the vehicle

with a professional lifting device.

Special features of the

automatic gearbox

When towing with four wheels on the

ground, the following rules must be

obeyed:

- lever in position N

- tow the vehicle at less than 30 mph

(50 km/h) over a maximum dis-

tance of 30 miles (50 km).

From the front:

Unclip the cover, by pressing the

bottom part,

Without lifting

(4 wheels on the ground)

You must always use a tow bar.

- do not add oil to the gearbox.

Screw in the towing eye as far as

it will go.

The removable towing eye is inside

the spare wheel.

Estate: the removable towing eye is

From the rear:

Unclip the top of the cover using a

coin,

inside the right-hand boot trim.

Screw in the towing eye as far as

it will go.

When towing with the engine

switched off, there is no brak-

ing or steering assistance.

Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the

towing vehicle and of the trailer, ob-

serving the recommended pressures.

TOWING A TRAILER,

CARAVAN, BOAT, etc.

Driving advice

Distribution of loads: Distribute the

load in the trailer so that the heaviest

items are as close as possible to the

axle and the nose weight approach-

es the maximum permitted without

exceeding it.

We recommend the use of original

PEUGEOT towbars that have been

tested and approved from the design

stage of your vehicle and that the ﬁt-

ting of the towbar is entrusted to a

PEUGEOT dealer.

Your vehicle is primarily designed

for transporting people and luggage

but it may also be used for towing a

trailer.

Braking: towing increases the brak-

ing distance.

Lights: check the electrical signal-

ling on the trailer.

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.

Side wind: take into acount the in-

creased sensitivity to side wind.

Driving with a trailer subjects the tow-

ing vehicle to more signiﬁcant stress

and its driver must be particularly

careful.

To lower the engine speed, reduce

your speed.

Air density decreases with altitude,

thus reducing engine performance.

Above 1 000 metres, the maximum

towing load must be reduced by 10 %

and so on for every 1 000 metres of

altitude.

The rear parking assistance function

will be disarmed automatically when

a towbar is ﬁtted.

The maximum towing load on a long

slope depends on the gradient and

the outside temperature.

In all cases, pay attention to the cool-

ant temperature.

If the warning light comes on, stop

the vehicle and switch off the engine

as soon as possible.

FITTING ROOF BARS

VERY COLD CLIMATE SCREEN*

The very cold climate screen is in-

stalled on the lower part of the front

bumper to prevent the accumulation

of snow at the radiator cooling fan.

When the snow has cleared (tem-

perature above 10 °C), remove the

very cold climate screen.

Maximumauthorisedweight

on the roof rack, for a load-

ing height not exceeding

40 cm (with the exception

of bicycle carriers): 80 kg (saloon),

100 kg (estate).

Saloon: when ﬁtting transverse roof

bars, use the four threads provided

for this purpose. To access these,

push the concealing ﬂaps in the di-

rection of the arrow.

Estate: when ﬁtting transverse roof

bars, observe their positioning. This

is indicated by marks on each of the

longitudinal bars.

FITTING

Offer up the very cold climate

screen facing the front bumper.

Put it in place by pressing at each

clip.

REMOVAL

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

ﬁxings on the roof.

Use accessories approved by PEUGEOT

and follow the manufacturer’s ﬁtting

instructions.

Insert a screwdriver into the hole

located near each of the clips.

Use the screwdriver as a lever to

unclip each clip in turn.
