Peugeot 3008 2024-2025 Driving Driving recommendations

Driving recommendationsObserve the driving regulations and remainvigilant whatever the traffic conditions.Monitor your environment and keep yourhands on the wheel to be able to react toanything that may happen any time.Drive smoothly, anticipate the need forbraking and maintain a longer safetydistance, especially in bad weather.Stop the vehicle before performingoperations that require sustained attention(e.g. settings).During long trips, take a break every 2 hours.Important!Never leave the engine running ina closed space without sufficientventilation. Internal combustion enginesemit toxic exhaust gases such as carbonmonoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!In very severe wintry conditions(temperature below -23°C), let the enginerun for 4 minutes before moving off, toensure the correct operation and durability ofthe mechanical components of your vehicle(engine and gearbox).Never drive with the parking brakeapplied. Risk of overheating anddamaging the braking system!Never park the vehicle and never leavethe engine running on a flammablesurface (e.g. dry grass, dead leaves). Thevehicle exhaust system is very hot, evenseveral minutes after the engine stops. Riskof fire!Never drive on surfaces covered withvegetation (e.g. tall grass, accumulateddead leaves, crops, debris) such as a field,a country lane overgrown with bushes or agrassy verge.This vegetation could come into contact withthe vehicle's exhaust system or other systemswhich are very hot. Risk of fire!Make sure you do not leave any item inthe passenger compartment which couldact like a magnifying glass under the effect ofthe sun's rays and cause a fire. Risk of fire ordamage to interior surfaces!Never leave the vehicle unattended,with the engine running. If you have toleave your vehicle with the engine running,apply the parking brake and put the gearboxor drive selector into neutral or position N or P(depending on version).Never leave children inside the vehicleunsupervised.On flooded roadsWe strongly advise against driving on floodedroads, as this could cause serious damage tothe internal combustion engine or electric motor,the gearbox and the electrical systems of thevehicle.Check that the depth of the water does notexceed 15 cm, taking account of waves thatmight be generated by other users.Deactivate the Stop & Start function.Drive as slowly as possible without stalling. Inall cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h).Do not stop and do not switch off the engine.On leaving the flooded road, as soon assafety conditions allow, make several light brakeapplications to dry the brake discs and pads.If in doubt about the state of your vehicle,contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifiedworkshop.Noise (Electric)On the outsideDue to the vehicle’s quiet operation whendriving, the driver must pay particular attention.When manoeuvring, the driver must alwayscheck the vehicle's immediate surroundings.Driving106
At speeds of up to 19 mph (30 km/h), thepedestrian horn warns other road users of thevehicle’s presence.Cooling the traction battery The coolingfan comes on during charging to cool theon-board charger and the traction battery.On the insideDuring use, you may hear certain perfectlynormal noises specific to electric vehicles, suchas:– Traction battery relay when starting.– Vacuum pump when braking.– Vehicle tyres or aerodynamics when driving.– Jolting and knocking noise during hill starts.TowingDriving with a trailer places greaterdemands on the towing vehicle andparticular care must be taken.Do not exceed the maximum towableweights.At altitude: reduce the maximum load by10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lowerair density at high altitudes decreases engineperformance.New vehicle: do not tow a trailer untilthe vehicle has driven at least 620 miles(1,000 kilometres).If the outside temperature is high, let theengine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after thevehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.Before setting offNose weightDistribute the load in the trailer so thatthe heaviest items are located as close aspossible to the axle, and the nose weight(at the point where it joins your vehicle)approaches the maximum permitted, withoutexceeding it.TyresCheck the tyre pressures of the towingvehicle and of the trailer, observing therecommended pressures.LightingCheck the electrical signalling on the trailerand the headlamp beam height of yourvehicle.If a genuine PEUGEOT towing device isused, the rear parking sensors will bedeactivated automatically to avoid activatingthe audible signal.When drivingCoolingTowing a trailer uphill causes the coolanttemperature to increase. The maximum towableload depends on the gradient and the exteriortemperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does notincrease with engine speed.Reduce speed and lower the engine speed tolimit the amount of heating produced.Pay constant attention to the coolanttemperature.If this warning lamp andthe STOP warning lampcome on, stop the vehicleand switch off the engineas soon as possible.BrakesUsing the engine brake is recommended to limitthe overheating of the brakes. Braking distancesare increased when towing a trailer.Side windBear in mind that the vehicle will be moresusceptible to wind when towing.Anti-theft protectionElectronic immobiliserThe keys contain a code, which must berecognised by the vehicle before starting ispossible.If the system malfunctions, indicated by thedisplay of a message, the engine will not start.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.Driving1076
