Antiꢀtheft bolts  
If your wheels are fitted with an anti-  
theft bolt (one per wheel), the chrome  
trim must be removed before un-  
screwing the bolt using the anti-theft  
socket and the wheelbrace.  
This anti-theft socket was  
given to you on delivery of  
your vehicle along with the  
duplicate keys.  
Make a careful note of the code  
number engraved on the head of the  
anti-theft socket. This will enable you  
to obtain a duplicate socket from a  
PEUGEOT dealer.  
Fitting the spare wheel  
Special features of alloy  
wheels  
If your vehicle is fitted with a steel  
spare wheel, when fitting it, it is norꢀ  
mal when tightening the bolts to no-  
tice that the washers do not come  
into contact with the rim. The spare  
wheel is secured by the cone shape  
of each bolt.  
Bolt covers  
Alloy wheel bolts are covered by  
chrome trims.  
Use the yellow tool to remove the  
trims before slackening the bolts.  
Fitting snow tyres  
If you fit snow tyres mounted on steel  
wheels onto your vehicle, it is esꢀ  
sential to use special bolts available  
from PEUGEOT dealers.  
Wheels equipped with 195/50R16  
tyres cannot be fitted with snow  
chains.  
For further information, contact a  
PEUGEOT dealer.
