Peugeot 3008 2016-2023 Driving Towing

112DrivingTowingDriving with a trailer places greater demands on the towing vehicle and particular care must be taken.Do not exceed the maximum towable weights.At altitude: reduce the maximum load by 10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower air density at high altitudes decreases engine performance.New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the vehicle has driven at least 620 miles (1,000 kilometres).If the outside temperature is high, let the engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.Before setting offNose weightDistribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are located as close as possible to the axle, and the nose weight (at the point where it joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum permitted, without exceeding it.TyresCheck the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressures.LightingCheck the electrical signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.If a genuine PEUGEOT towing device is used, the rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically to avoid activating the audible signal.When drivingCoolingTowing a trailer uphill causes the coolant temperature to increase. The maximum towable load depends on the gradient and the exterior temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not increase with engine speed.Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to limit the amount of heating produced.Pay constant attention to the coolant temperature.If this warning lamp and the STOPwarning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.BrakesUsing the engine brake is recommended to limit the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances are increased when towing a trailer.Side windBear in mind that the vehicle will be more susceptible to wind when towing.Anti-theft protectionElectronic immobiliserThe keys contain a code, which must be recognised by the vehicle before starting is possible.If the system malfunctions, indicated by the display of a message, the engine will not start.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.Starting/Switching off the engineThe electronic key must be present in the passenger compartment.If the electronic key is not detected, a message is displayed.Move the electronic key so that the engine can be started or switched off.If there is still a problem, refer to the "Key not detected - Back-up starting or Back-up switch-off" section.
