Place the jack 4in contact with one
of the four locating points Aon the
subframe, (the one which is clos
est to the wheel to be changed).
Extend the jack 4until its base is in
contact with the ground. Ensure
that the centre line of the base of
the jack is straight above the locat
ing point A.
Raise the vehicle.
Unscrew the bolts and remove the
wheel.
Fitting a wheel
Position the wheel using the cen
tralising tool to assist you.
Tighten the bolts by hand and
remove the centralising tool.
Partly tighten the bolts using the
wheelbrace 1.
Fold the jack 4 and remove it.
Fully tighten the bolts using the
wheelbrace 1.
Replace the wheel trim, starting
by placing the wheel trim notch
opposite the valve, and press it
on using the palm of the hand.
Put the tools and the wheel back
in the boot.
Note: a diagram on the holder indi
cates the location of the tools. .
Tighten the spare wheel securing
strap to prevent noise and for your
safety in the event of impact.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION 143
For your safety, always
change the wheel:
on level, stable, nonslippery ground,
with the handbrake on and the ignition switched off,
with first or reverse gear engaged (position Pfor the
automatic gearbox),
with the vehicle chocked.
Never go underneath a vehicle
that is supported only by a jack
(use a ramp)
After changing the wheel:
have the tightening of the bolts and the tyre pressure checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible.
have the punctured tyre repaired and refit it to the vehicle
as soon as possible.

TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, BOAT etc.
Only use original PEUGEOT tow
bars that have been tested and
approved from the design stage of
your vehicle. The tow bar must be fit
ted by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Your vehicle is basically designed for
transporting people and luggage but it
may also be used for towing a trailer.
Driving with a trailer subjects the
towing vehicle to more significant
stress and its driver must be particu
larly careful.
Air density decreases with altitude,
thus reducing engine performance.
Above 1000 metres, the maximum
towing load must be reduced by 10%
and so on for every 1000 metres of
altitude.Driving advice
Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest items are as close
as possible to the axle and the nose
weight approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled,
its cooling capacity is not dependent
on the engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to
lower the engine speed, and reduce
your speed.
The maximum towing load on a long
slope depends on the gradient and
the outside temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the
coolant temperature.
If the warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.Tyres
Check the tyre pressures of the tow
ing vehicle and of the trailer, observ
ing the recommended pressures.
Braking
Towing increases the braking distance.
Lights
Check the electrical signalling on the
trailer.
Side wind
Take into acount the increased sen
sitivity to side wind.
