Anti-Theft Protection - PEUGEOT BOXER 2018 Handbook

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.
F To lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towable load on an incline
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
F If this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
New vehicle
Do not pull a trailer before having driven at
least 620 miles (1,000 kilometres).
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
Tyres
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling
on the trailer and the headlamp beam height
of your vehicle.
For more information on Headlamp
beam height adjustment, refer to the
corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal if a genuine PEUGEOT
towbar is used.

Anti-theft protection

Electronic immobiliser
The keys contain an electronic immobiliser
device.
This device locks the engine supply system.
It activates automatically when the key is
removed from the ignition.
When the ignition switch is turned on, a
dialogue is set up between the key and the
electronic immobiliser.
This warning lamp goes off after the
key has been recognised, the ignition is
switched on and the engine can be started.
If the key is not recognised, the engine
cannot be started. Use another key
and have the faulty key checked by
a PEUGEOT dealer.
Note the number of the keys carefully;
in case of loss, intervention by the
PEUGEOT dealer will be more efficient
and quicker if you present this number and
the confidential card.
Do not make any modifications to the
electronic immobiliser system.
Operating the remote control, even when it
is in your pocket, may result in involuntary
unlocking of the doors.
The simultaneous use of other high
frequency equipment (mobile telephones,
domestic alarms, etc.), may interfere
with the operation of the remote control
temporarily.
The remote control does not operate
while the key is in the ignition, even if the
ignition is off, except for reinitialisation.
