Towing a trailer

trailer or installation of a bicycle carrier,
with additional lighting and signalling.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it may
also be used for towing a trailer.

Blanking cover
When towing, you must remove the blanking
cover if your vehicle has one.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for this.
The cover is located behind the lower
air intake grille.
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.
If the towbar is not fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative that it
is fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
