PRACTICAL INFORMATION
V
ERY COLD CLIMATE
S
CREEN *
Removable protective screen which
prevents the accumulation of snow at
the radiator cooling fan.
Fitting
) Offer up the very cold climate screen
to the front of the lower section of
the front bumper.
) Press around its edge to engage its
xing clips one by one.
Do not forget to remove the very
cold climate screen:
- when the ambient temperature
exceeds 10 °C,
- when towing,
-
at speeds above 75 mph (120 km/h).
Removal
) Use a screwdriver as a lever to re-
lease each xing clip in turn.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
) To lower the engine speed, reduce
your speed.
The maximum towed load on a long in-
cline depends on the gradient and the
ambient temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the cool-
ant temperature.
Braking
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.
Tyres
) Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
) Check the electrical lighting and sig-
nalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a gen-
uine PEUGEOT towbar is used.
) If the warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come
on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as
soon as possible.
