PRACTICAL INFORMATION
152
The maximum towed load on a long in-
cline depends on the gradient and the
ambient temperature.

If the warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come
on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as
soon as possible.
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 tow-
ing vehicle and of the trailer, observ-
ing the recommended pressures.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a gen-
uine PEUGEOT towbar is used.
In all cases, keep a check on the cool-
ant temperature.
Lighting

Check the electrical lighting and sig-
nalling on the trailer.

cally for your coupé-cabriolet, is available

rier, take care not to cover the third
