DRIVING
Operating faults
Do not subject the vehicle to ex-
cessive conditions while driving.
Have your vehicle towed on a
flatbed.
As the engine torque is applied
to all four wheels, the condition
of the tyres has a considerable
impact on the performance of
the vehicle.
The vehicle must not be towed
with the front or rear wheels on
the ground even if it is in front
"2WD" (2 wheel drive) mode.
Ensure that all four tyres are in
good condition.
Avoid driving the vehicle in
sandy or muddy areas or in
other areas in which the wheels
could spin.
If the selected transmission mode display
flashes, the vehicle switches automatically
to front "2WD" transmission mode.
Spinning the wheels places the
transmission components under
pressure and could cause a seri-
ous malfunction.
It is then no longer possible to select the
transmission mode using the control A.
Do not drive the vehicle through
deep water.
Avoid driving over excessively
uneven terrain (risk of scraping
under the body or of grounding
on crossing a bridge).
If the message "SLOW DOWN" is dis-
played on the instrument panel, let the
transmission cool down then wait for the
display to clear before setting off again.

If "4WD" and "LOCK" are displayed
alternately and if "MAINTENANCE
REQUIRED" is displayed in the instru-
ment panel, the system has failed and
the safety system has been activated.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fied workshop without delay.
