Practical information

Parking the vehicle

Immobilise the vehicle where it does not

block traffic: the ground must be level,

stable and not slippery.

Removing a wheel

Apply the parking brake unless it has

been programmed to automatic mode.

Switch off the ignition.

With a manual gearbox, engage first

gear to block the wheels.

With an electronic gearbox, place the

lever in position R to block the wheels.

With an automatic gearbox, place the

lever in position P to block the wheels.

Check that the braking warning lamp

and the P warning lamp in the parking

brake control lever come on.

If necessary, place a chock under the

wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to

be changed.

The occupants must get out of the

vehicle and wait where they are safe.

Never go underneath a vehicle

F

Remove the bolt cover from each of the

bolts using the tool 7 (depending on

equipment).

Fit the security socket 3 on the

wheelbrace 5 to slacken the security bolt

(if your vehicle has them).

F

Put the carrier back in place in the centre

of the wheel and clip it in place*.

Put the polystyrene storage box back in

supported by a jack; use an axle stand.

Wheel with wheel trim

Slacken the other bolts using the

wheelbrace 5 only.

When removing the wheel, first

remove the wheel trim using the

wheelbrace 5 by pulling at the valve

cut-out.

Tyre under-inﬂation detection

When refitting the wheel, refit the

wheel trim by placing its cut-out at the

valve, and press round its edge with the

palm of your hand.

The space-saver type or steel spare

wheel does not have a sensor.

The punctured wheel must be repaired

by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified

workshop.

Do not use:

-

the jack for any purpose other than

lifting the vehicle,

-

any jack other than the one

supplied by the manufacturer.

Practical information

F

Position the foot of the jack 6 on the

ground and ensure that it is directly below

one of the front A or rear B jacking points

provided on the underbody, whichever is

closest to the wheel to be changed.

F

Extend the jack until its head comes into

contact with the jacking point A or B; the

contact zone A or B must be correctly

engaged with the middle of the head of the

jack.

F

Raise the vehicle until there is sufficient

space between the wheel and the ground

to admit the spare (not punctured) wheel

easily.

Ensure that the jack is stable. If the

ground is slippery or loose, the jack

might slip or drop - Risk of injury!

Position the jack only at the jacking

point A or B under the vehicle,

ensuring that the vehicle's contact

zone is correctly centred on the head

of the jack. Otherwise there is a risk

of damage to the vehicle and the jack

might drop - Risk of injury!

place.

Remove the wheel.

security socket 3, pre-tighten the security

bolt (if your vehicle has them).

Pre-tighten the other bolts using the

wheelbrace 5 only.

If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels,

when tightening the bolts on fitting, it

is normal to notice that the washers do

not come into contact with the "space-

saver" spare wheel. The wheel is

secured by the conical contact surface

of each bolt.

Practical information

After changing a wheel

To stow the punctured wheel in place

of the spare wheel, first remove the

central cover.

When driving with the "space-saver"

type spare wheel fitted, do not

exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).

Have the tightness of the bolts and the

pressure of the spare wheel checked

by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified

workshop.

Have the punctured wheel repaired

and refit it to the vehicle as soon as

possible.

F

Lower the vehicle fully.

Fold the jack 6 and detach it.

F

Using the wheelbrace 5 fitted with the

security socket 3, tighten the security bolt

(if your vehicle has them).

F

Tighten the other bolts using the

wheelbrace 5 only.

Refit the bolt covers to each of the bolts

(according to equipment).

With BlueHDi versions, the punctured

wheel cannot be stowed in place of the

space-saver spare wheel.

Snow chains must only be fitted to the

front wheels. They must not be fitted to

a "space-saver" type of spare wheel.

If you have to fit snow chains with a

"space-saver" type of spare wheel in

use on a front wheel, interchange the

front and rear wheels on that side of the

vehicle.

Use a cover to protect the boot.

Stow the tools in the box.
