Peugeot 207 2006-2008 Practical Information Towing a trailer

ii151 TOWING A TRAILER, A CARAVAN, ETC. Your vehicle is primarily designed for transporting people and luggage, but it may also be used for towing a trailer. Driving advice The maximum towing load on a long slope depends on the gradient and the outside temperature. In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature. Distribution of loads Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it. Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine performance. Above 1 000 metres, the maximum towing load must be reduced by 10 % and so on for every 1 000 metres of altitude. Refer to the "Technical Data" section for details of the weights and towing loads which apply to your vehicle. Side wind Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind. Braking Towing a trailer increases the braking distance. Tyres Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressures. Lights Check the electrical signalling on the trailer. The rear parking assistance will be deactivated automatically if a gen-uine PEUGEOT towbar is used. If the warning light and the STOP warning light come on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible. Towbar suited to the attachment of a trailer or caravan with additional signal-ling and lighting. 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. To lower the engine speed, reduce your speed. We recommend the use of original PEUGEOT towbars and their har-nesses that have been tested and approved from the design stage of your vehicle and that the fi tting of the towbar is entrusted to a PEUGEOT dealer. If the trailer is not fi tted by a PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative that it is fi tted us-ing the electrical pre-equipment installed at the rear of the vehicle, in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Driving with a trailer subjects the towing vehicle to more signifi cant stress and its driver must be particularly careful.
