bolts.

2. Jack with integrated handle.
Permits raising of the vehicle.

3. Removable towing eye.
See corresponding section.

4. Bolt cover tool.
Permits removal of the bolt protectors (covers) on alloy wheels. Removal

 For vehicles with steel wheels,
detach the trim using the wheel-
brace 1 pulling at the valve pas-
sage hole.

 For vehicles with alloy wheels,
remove the covers using tool 4 .

 Loosen the wheel bolts.

 Take the jack from the tool kit.

 Place the jack 2 in one of the four
locations underneath the vehicle
(the nearest one to the wheel to be
changed).

 Extend the jack 2 until its base is in
contact with the ground.

 Unscrew the bolts and remove the
wheel.
Access to the spare wheel and the
jack in the boot

 Lift the fl oor using the lifting handle.

Fitting a wheel

 Position the wheel.

 Tighten the bolts by hand.

 Partly tighten the bolts using the
wheelbrace.

 Fold the jack 2 and remove it.

 Fully tighten the bolts using the
wheelbrace 1 .

refi t the wheel trim starting by plac-
ing its notch facing the valve and
press with the palm of the hand.

 For vehicles with alloy wheels, refi t
the covers.

 Put the tool holder back in position.
This helps to keep the boot fl oor in
its correct position, to prevent any
deformation of the fl oor when loaded.

 Tighten the spare wheel securing
strap to prevent noise and for your
safety in the event of impact. Punctured tyre warning
light
Information on the instrument
panel:

Reminder: for your safety, always
change a wheel:
- on level, stable, non-slippery ground,
- with the handbrake applied,
-
with fi rst or reverse gear engaged (po-
sition P for the automatic gearbox),
- never go underneath a vehicle
which is supported only by a jack. Tyre under-infl ation detection
system warning light
These original wheels are fi tted with a
pressure sensor (see paragraph "Tyre
under-infl ation detection"). The alarm
which detects the removal or absence
of a wheel fi tted with the indicator
sensor signals the anomaly. Have
the wheel repaired and checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
After changing the wheel:
- have the tightening of the bolts and
the tyre pressure of the spare wheel
checked as soon as possible.
- have the punctured wheel repaired and refi t it to the vehicle as soon as
possible.
- have the spare wheel checked and replace it in its boot recess.
Recommendations when using the
temporary spare wheel *
Your vehicle may be equipped with a
spare wheel with a different rim to that
of the standard wheel.
After use, replace it as soon as possible.
Follow the recommendations below
to avoid any alteration in vehicle han-
dling:
-
do not drive above 50 mph (80 km/h) ,

- do not fi t a wheel trim,
- drive carefully,
- check the infl ation pressure indi- cated on the label.

Bolt covers
Alloy wheel bolts are covered by
chrome trims.
Use the yellow tool to remove the trims
before slackening the bolts. Fitting the spare wheel
If your vehicle is fi tted with a steel spare
wheel, when fi tting it, it is
normal when
tightening the bolts to notice that the
washers do not come into contact with
the rim. The spare wheel is secured by
the cone shape of each bolt.
VERY COLD CLIMATE SCREEN *
The very cold climate screen is a partial
removable cover which is clipped onto
the air intake grille to prevent the accu-
mulation of snow due to direct splashes.
Once it has been fi tted on your vehi-
cle, it is imperative that it is removed
when the ambient temperature condi-
tions rise above 10 °C again.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Tyres of size 215/55 R17 can-
not be fi tted with standard snow
chains, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
* According to country.
Special features of alloy
wheels Anti-theft bolts
Your wheels are fi tted with anti-theft
bolts (one per wheel), placed under
chrome trims which must be removed
using the yellow tool, before the bolts
are unscrewed using the anti-theft
socket and the wheel brace 1 .
Fitting snow tyres
If you fi t snow tyres mounted on steel
wheels onto your vehicle, it is
essen-
tial to use special bolts available from
your PEUGEOT dealer.
This anti-theft socket was
given to you on delivery of
your vehicle with the duplicate
keys. Make a careful note of
the code number engraved on the
head of the anti-theft socket. This will
enable you to obtain a duplicate anti-
theft socket from a PEUGEOT dealer.
You are advised to do the same for the
