before unscrewing the bolt using oneof the two anti-theft sockets (whichwere given to you on delivery of yourvehicle along with the duplicate keysand the confidential card) and thewheel brace 1.

code number engraved on the head
of the anti-theft socket. This willenable you to obtain duplicate anti-
theft sockets from a Peugeot dealer.

Special features of alloy wheels Bolt covers Alloy wheel bolts are covered by chrome trims. Use tool 7to remove the trims before
slackening the bolts.Fitting the spare wheel If your vehicle is fitted with a steel spare wheel, when fitting it, it is normal to notice when tightening the
bolts that the washers do not come
into contact with the rim. The sparewheel is secured by the cone-shapeof each bolt. Fitting snow tyres If you fit snow tyres mounted on steel wheels to your vehicle, it is essential
to use special bolts available from
