Do not leave the tools unsecured inside the vehicle as they may come
loose under braking. After use, make sure the tools are correctly posi -
tioned in their housings: risk of injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the tool kit, only use these bolts for the
emergency spare wheel: refer to the label affixed to the emergency spare wheel.

If the emergency spare wheel has been stored for several years, have it
checked by your Dealer to ensure that it is safe to use.
Vehicles fitted with an emergency spare wheel which is different to
the four other wheels:
– Never fit more than one emergency spare wheel to the same vehicle.
– Replace the emergency spare wheel as soon as possible with a wheel identi -
cal to the original one.
– When this is fitted to the vehicle, which must only be a temporary measure, the
driving speed must not exceed the speed indicated on the label on the wh\
eel.
– Fitting an emergency spare wheel may alter the way the vehicle usually runs.
Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration and reduce your speed when cor-
nering.
– If you need to use snow chains, fit the emergency spare wheel to the rear axle
and check the tyre pressure.

TYRE INFLATION KIT (2/3)
Depending on the vehicle, in the event
of a puncture, use the kit located on the
left side of the luggage compartment on
4x2 versions or in the in the emergency
spare wheel tray under the luggage
compartment carpet on 4x4 versions. –
press switch 5 to inflate the tyre to
the recommended pressure (check
the label affixed to the edge of the
driver’s door);
– after a maximum of 5 minutes, stop
inflating and read the pressure (on
the pressure gauge 4);
Note: while the bottle is emptying
(approximately 30 seconds), pres -
sure gauge 4 will briefly indicate a
pressure of 6 bar, then the pressure
will drop.
– adjust the pressure: to increase
it, continue inflating with the kit, to
reduce it, turn button 7 located on
the inflation adapter.
If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is
not reached after 15 minutes, repair
is not possible; do not drive the vehi-
cle but contact an approved dealer .
Before using this kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the handbrake, ask all
passengers to leave the vehicle and
keep them away from traffic.
Open the kit, remove caps 1 and 3 (it is
essential not to remove the cap from
the bottle) then screw bottle 2 to its
base 3.
With the engine running and the
handbrake applied,
– unscrew the valve cap on the wheel
concerned and screw the inflation
adapter 6 onto valve;
– connect adapter 8 to accessories
socket 9 on the dashboard of the ve-
hicle;

Changing a wheel
CHANGING A WHEEL (1/2)
Switch on the hazard warn-
ing lights.
Park the vehicle away from
traffic on firm, flat, non-slip -
pery ground (if necessary, place a
solid support under the jack base).
Apply the handbrake and engage a
gear (first or reverse gear).
Ask the passengers to leave the ve-
hicle and to keep away from traffic.
If you have a puncture, re -
place the wheel as soon as
possible.
A tyre which has been punc-
tured should always be inspected
(and repaired, where possible) by a
specialist.
Vehicles equipped with a jack
and wheelbrace
If necessary, remove the wheel trim,
refer to the information on “Wheel trims
- Wheels” in this Section. Undo the
wheel bolts using wheelbrace 4 . Fit it
so that you press downwards rather
than pulling upwards. Mark hole
1 , which is the nearest to
the wheel in question. The jack must
be fitted in this location. Offer up jack 3
horizontally and position jack head 2
under the sill.
Start cranking the jack up by hand to
align the base plate (which should be
pushed slightly under the vehicle).
Turn the wheelbrace until the wheel lifts
off the ground.
Remove the bolts.
Take off the wheel.
Fit the emergency spare wheel on
the central hub and turn it to align the
mounting holes in the wheel and the
hub.
To prevent any risk of injury
or damage to the vehicle,
only crank the jack until the
wheel you are replacing is
a maximum of 3 centimetres off the
ground.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.

CHANGING A WHEEL (2/2)
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.
Note : ensure that the emergency
spare wheel or punctured wheel and
the wheel tray are correctly posi -
tioned so that the luggage compart-
ment carpet can be properly fitted.
Tighten the bolts, checking that the
wheel is correctly positioned on its hub
and lower the jack.
With the wheels on the ground, tighten
the bolts firmly, beginning on side 5 ,
then 7, 9, 6, and finishing with 8. Check
the tightness (tightening torque 105
Nm), and the pressure of the emer -
gency spare wheel’s tyre as soon as
possible.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.

Tyres
TYRES (1/3)
Tyre and wheel safety
The tyres are the only contact between
the vehicle and the road, so it is essen-
tial to keep them in good condition.
You must make sure that your tyres
conform to local road traffic regulations.
When they need to be re -
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and
profile should be used.
Tyres fitted to the vehicle should
either be identical to those fitted
originally or conform to those
recommended by your approved
dealer.Maintaining the tyres
The tyres must be in good condition
and the tread form must have sufficient
depth; tyres approved by our Technical
Department have wear warning strips 1
which are indicators moulded into
the tread at several points. When the tyre tread has been worn
to the level of the warning strips, they
become visible
2: it is then neces -
sary to replace your tyres because the
tread rubber is now only 1.6 mm deep
at most, resulting in poor road hold -
ing on wet roads.
An overloaded vehicle, long journeys
by motorway, particularly in very hot
weather, or continual driving on poorly
surfaced minor roads will lead to more
rapid tyre wear and affect safety.
Incidents which occur when
driving, such as striking the
kerb, may damage the tyres
and wheel rims, and could
also lead to misalignment of the
front or rear axle geometry. If such
incidents occur, have the condition
of these parts checked by an ap -
proved dealer.
