Take care, the bottle of fluid contains

ethylene-glycol. This product is harmful

if swallowed and causes irritation to the

eyes. Keep it out of reach of children.

The expiry date of the fluid is indicated

on the base of the bottle.

Access to the spare wheel*

The bottle is designed for a single use;

even if only partly used, it must be

replaced.

After use, do not discard the bottle into

the environment, take it to a PEUGEOT

dealer or an authorised waste

disposal site.

Do not forget to obtain a new bottle

of sealant product, available from

a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified

workshop.

The spare wheel is supported by a cable-driven

carrier underneath the vehicle.

Taking out the wheel

F

Raise the concertina board.

Raise the cut-out in the boot carpet for

access to the spare wheel carrier drive nut.

If the vehicle is fitted with tyre under-

inflation detection, the tyre under-

inflation warning lamp will remain on

after the wheel has been repaired

until the system is reinitialised by

a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified

workshop.

* Depending on country of sale.

Practical information

Removing a wheel

Parking the vehicle

Immobilise the vehicle where it does not

block traffic: the ground must be level,

stable and non-slippery ground.

Apply the parking brake unless it has

been programmed to automatic mode,

switch off the ignition and block the

wheels:

-

by engaging 1st gear, with a manual

gearbox,

-

by placing the gear selector at

position R with an electronic

gearbox,

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

Position the foot 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.

-

by placing the gear selector at

position P with an automatic

gearbox.

Check that the braking warning lamp

and the P warning lamp on the parking

brake control 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 raised

using a jack; use an axle stand.

Slacken the other bolts using the

wheelbrace 5 only.

Wheel with wheel trim

When removing the wheel, first

remove the wheel trim using the

wheelbrace 5 by pulling at the valve

cut-out.

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.

229

Practical information

Ensure that the jack is stable. If the

ground is slippery or loose, the jack

might slip and drop.

Position the jack only at the locations A

or B.

Ensure that the head of the jack is

positioned centrally on the jacking

location. Otherwise there is a risk of

damage to the vehicle and the jack

may drop.

F

Extend the jack until its head comes into

contact with A or B; the contact surface A

or B must be correctly engaged with the

middle of the head of the jack.

Raise the vehicle until there is sufficient

space between the wheel and the ground

to admit the spare (not punctured) wheel

easily.

F

Remove the bolts and store them in a clean

place.

Remove the wheel.

Following a puncture

The punctured wheel cannot be stowed

under the vehicle. It must be stowed in the

boot. Use a cover to protect the inside of

the boot.

When driving with the "space-saver" type

spare wheel fitted, do not exceed 50 mph

(80 km/h).

Have the tightening of the bolts and the

pressure of the spare wheel checked by a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop

without delay.

Have the punctured wheel repaired and

replace it on the vehicle as soon as possible.

Tyre under-inﬂation detection

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.

Practical information

Fitting a wheel

F

Put the wheel in place on the hub using the

centre guide 8.

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).

Tighten the other bolts using the

wheelbrace 5 only.

Refit the bolt covers to each of the bolts

(according to equipment).

F

Screw in the bolts by hand to the stop.

Using the wheelbrace 5 fitted with the

security socket 3, pre-tighten the security

bolt (if your vehicle has them).

Pre-tighten the other bolts using the

wheelbrace 5 only.

F

Fitting the "space-saver"

spare wheel

Store the tools in the box.

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 of

each bolt.

Practical information

Snow chains

In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when

braking.

Advice on installation

F

If you have to fit the chains during a

journey, stop the vehicle on a flat surface

on the side of the road.

Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the

The snow chains must be fitted only

to the front wheels. They must never

be fitted to "space-saver" type spare

wheels.

type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:

F

Apply the parking brake and position any

wheel chocks to prevent movement of your

vehicle.

F

Fit the chains following the instructions

provided by the manufacturer.

Move off gently and drive for a few

moments, without exceeding 30 mph

(50 km/h).

Original tyre size

Maximum link size.

215/55 R16

215/50 R17

215/45 R18

F

Stop your vehicle and check that the snow

chains are correctly tightened.

9 mm

For more information on snow chains, contact a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Avoid driving with snow chains on roads

that have been cleared of snow, to

avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and

the road surface. If your vehicle is fitted

with alloy wheels, check that no part of

the chain or its fixings is in contact with

the wheel rim.

It is strongly recommended that before

you leave, you practise fitting the snow

chains on a level and dry surface.

Take account of the legislation in force

in your country on the use of snow

chains and the maximum running speed

authorised.
