Temporary puncture repair kit  
This kit consists of a compressor and a sealant cartridge.  
It allows the temporary repair of a tyre.  
You are then able to go to the nearest garage.  
It is designed to repair most punctures which could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread or shoulder.  
Its compressor can be used to check and adjust the pressure of the tyre.  
Access to the kit  
The vehicle's electric system allows the  
connection of a compressor for long  
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture  
repair or for inflating a small inflatable  
accessory.  
The kit is stowed in the boot under the floor, in the polystyrene storage box.

a battery charger  
Protect your eyes and face before  
handling the battery.  
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition  
before disconnecting the battery.  
Close the windows and the doors before  
disconnecting the battery.  
All operations on the battery must be  
carried out in a well ventilated area and  
away from naked flames and sources  
of sparks, so as to avoid the risk of  
explosion or fire.  
Do not try to charge a frozen battery;  
the battery must first be thawed out to  
avoid the risk of explosion. If the battery  
has been frozen, before charging have  
it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a  
qualified workshop who will check that  
the internal components have not been  
damaged and the casing is not cracked,  
which could cause a leak of toxic and  
corrosive acid.  
Do not reverse the polarity and use only  
a 12 V charger.  
Do not disconnect the terminals while  
the engine is running.  
Do not charge the batteries without  
disconnecting the terminals first.  
Wash your hands afterwards.

Towing a trailer  
Driving advice  
We recommend the use of genuine  
PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses  
that have been tested and approved  
from the design stage of your vehicle,  
and that the fitting of the towbar is  
entrusted to a PEUGEOT dealer or a  
qualified workshop.  
Distribution of loads  
F
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the  
heaviest items are as close as possible to  
the axle and the nose weight approaches the  
maximum permitted without exceeding it.  
If the towbar is not fitted by a  
Air density decreases with altitude,  
thus reducing engine performance.  
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum  
towed load must be reduced by 10 % for  
every 1 000 metres of altitude.  
PEUGEOT dealer, it must still be  
fitted in accordance with the vehicle  
manufacturer's instructions.  
Your vehicle is primarily designed for  
transporting people and luggage, but it may  
also be used for towing a trailer.  
Driving with a trailer places greater  
demands on the towing vehicle and the  
driver must take particular care.  
Refer to the "Technical data" section for  
details of the weights and towed loads  
which apply to your vehicle.  
If the trailer starts to sway, you risk  
losing control. The trailer could  
overturn. There is a risk of an accident.  
Do not try to correct the trailer's  
movement by accelerating. Reduce  
your speed and do not counter-steer.  
Brake if necessary.

Practical information  
Side wind  
Braking  
F
Take into account the increased sensitivity  
to side wind.  
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.  
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a long  
mountain type of descent, the use of engine  
braking is recommended.  
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.  
Tyres  
F
Check the tyre pressures of the towing  
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the  
recommended pressures.  
F
To lower the engine speed, reduce your  
speed.  
The maximum towed load on a long incline  
depends on the gradient and the ambient  
temperature.  
Lighting  
F
Check the electrical lighting and signalling  
on the trailer.  
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant  
temperature.  
F
If the warning lamp and the STOP  
warning lamp come on, stop the  
vehicle and switch off the engine  
as soon as possible.  
The rear parking sensors will be  
deactivated automatically if a genuine  
PEUGEOT towbar is used.
