Fitting the spare wheel

Anti-theft bolt**

If your vehicle is ﬁtted with a steel

spare wheel, it is normal when secu-

ring it to notice that the bolt washers

do not come into contact with the

rim. The spare wheel is secured by

the cone-shaped support of each

bolt.

If your wheels are ﬁtted with an anti-

theft bolt (one per wheel), the

chrome trim and then the plastic

cover must be removed, using tool 3,

before it is unscrewed using one of

the two anti-theft sockets (which

were given to you on delivery of your

vehicle along with the duplicate keys

and the conﬁdential card) and the

wheel brace 1.

Alloy wheel bolts are covered by

chrome trims.

Use tool 3 to remove the trims before

slackening the bolts.

Fitting snow tyres

If you ﬁt snow tyres mounted on steel

wheels, it is essential to use special

bolts available from your PEUGEOT

dealer.

Note: make a careful note of the code

number engraved on the top of the

anti-theft socket. This will enable you

to obtain a duplicate of the anti-theft

socket from a PEUGEOT dealer.

* According to speciﬁcation.

** According to model and destination.
