Peugeot Partner 1996-2008 Owner's Manual Towing a trailer

109 Towing a trailer ACCESSORIES6 For more information about weights, refer to the administrative documents (V5 registration document, ...) or to the "Weights" section of chapter 9. TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC... Distribution of loads Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest objects are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight is close to the maximum authorised without, however, exceeding it. Cooling Towing a trailer on a slope increases the coolant temperature. As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependent on the engine speed. On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the engine speed and reduce your speed. In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature. Driving advice A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in neutral.
110 Towing a trailer Good Practice In certain cases of particularly arduous use (towing the maximum load up a steep slope in high temperatures), the engine automatically limits its power. In this case, the automatic cutting off of the air conditioning allows the engine power to be recovered. Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle (see the "Identifi cation features" section of chapter 9) and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressure. See the "Levels" section of chapter 7. If the coolant temperature warning light comes on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.Brakes Towing increases the braking distance. Drive at a moderate speed, change down early and brake gradually.
