Practical information
Installation tips
► To fit the snow chains during a journey, stop
the vehicle on a flat surface at the side of the
road.
► Apply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks under the wheels to prevent
movement of the vehicle.
► Fit the snow chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
► Move off gently and drive for a few moments,
without exceeding 31 mph (50 km/h).
► Stop the vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
It is strongly recommended that you
practise fitting the snow chains on a level
and dry surface before setting off.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow to avoid
damaging the vehicle's tyres and the road
surface. If the vehicle is fitted with alloy
wheels, check that no part of the chain or its
fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.

Towing a trailer
The type-approved towable weights are entered
in your vehicle's registration certificate, as well
as on the manufacturer's plate.
For more information on the Technical
characteristics of the vehicle and
particularly on weights and towable loads,
refer to the corresponding section.
You will then have information on your vehicle's
ability to tow a trailer, a caravan, a boat, etc.
These values are also given in the sales
brochures.
We recommend using genuine
PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved from the
design stage of your vehicle, and having a
PEUGEOT dealer fit the towbar.
These genuine towbars are compatible with
the operation of the rear parking sensors and
the reversing camera, if your vehicle is so
equipped.
If the towbar is not fitted by a PEUGEOT
dealer, it must still be fitted in accordance with
the vehicle manufacturer's instructions.
Electric motor
An electric vehicle cannot under any
circumstances be fitted with a towing device.
It is therefore not possible to tow a trailer or
caravan.

Presentation

fitted or removed. These operations do not
require any tools.
