Get In the event of a breakdown -> Changing a bulb Guide for Peugeot 2008 SUV Second Generation (2019-2025)

In the event of a breakdown

After changing a wheel

their edges for too long, so as not to damage

their protective coating and seals.

Changing a bulb

With a non-standard or 'space-saver'

spare wheel

In some weather conditions (e.g. low

temperature or humidity), misting on the

internal surface of the glass of the headlamps

and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear

after the lamps have been on for a few

minutes.

Changing a bulb must only be done with

the ignition oﬀ and after the headlamp /

lamp has been switched oﬀ for several

minutes - risk of serious burns!

Do not touch the bulb directly with your

ﬁngers; use a lint-free cloth.

Deactivate certain driving aid functions

(Active Safety Brake, Adaptive cruise control,

etc.).

Do not exceed the maximum authorised

speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) or the maximum

distance of 50 miles (80 km).

It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet

(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the

headlamp.

Always replace a failed bulb with a new bulb

of the same type and speciﬁcation. To avoid

lighting imbalance, replace the bulbs in pairs.

Never look too closely at the light beam

of LED technology lamps - risk of serious

eye injury!

Driving with more than one spare wheel of

this type is prohibited.

The wheel trim from the replaced wheel must

not be reﬁtted.

Reﬁtting the lamp units

Perform the operations in the reverse

order to dismantling.

Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualiﬁed

workshop.

Have the tightening of the spare wheel's bolts

and its tyre pressure checked.

Have the punctured tyre examined. After

inspection, the technician will advise you on

whether the tyre can be repaired or if it must

be replaced.
