Stop & Start
Before doing anything under the bonnet, you must switch off the
ignition to avoid any risk of injury resulting from an automatic change to START
mode...
Check all of the following levels regularly in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if required, unless otherwise
indicated...
Other information:
USB port
Insert the USB memory stick
into the USB port or connect the USB device to the USB port using a suitable
cable (not supplied).
To protect the system, do
not use a USB hub.
The system builds playlists (in temporary memory); this operation can take
from a few seconds to several minutes at the first connection...
Removing/refitting at the front
Carry out these wiper blade replacement operations from the driver's
side.
Starting with the wiper blade farthest from you, hold each arm by the
rigid section and raise it as far as possible.
Do not touch the wiper
blades - risk of irreversible distortion...

Load distribution
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.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine performance. The
maximum towable load must be reduced by 10% per 1,000 metres of altitude.
Use
genuine towing devices and their wiring harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. We
recommend having them fitted by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
