[x] Cancel search: spare wheelPage 26 of 356
Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle;
place the heaviest items in the bottom
of the boot, as close as possible to the
rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle
and reduce wind resistance (roof bars,
roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use
a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after
use.
At the end of winter, remove snow
tyres and refi t your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly,
when cold, referring to the label in the
door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the
tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) and
observe the schedule of operations
recommended by the manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3 rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any overfl ow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.

SAFETY
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
System which automatically and contin-
uously checks the pressure of the tyres
while driving.
All repairs and changing of tyres on a wheel fi tted with this system must
be carried out by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you fi t a
wheel which is not detected by your
vehicle (example: fi tting of snow
tyres), you must have the system
reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
This system does not avoid the
need to have the tyre pressures
checked regularly (refer to the
"Identifi cation markings" section) to
ensure that the optimum dynamic
performance of the vehicle is main-
tained and prevent premature wear
of the tyres, particularly in arduous
driving conditions (heavy load, high
speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked cold, at least once a month. Re-
member to check the pressure of
the spare wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to electro-magnetic
emissions on a frequency close to
that used by the system.
Sensors fi tted in each valve trigger a
warning in the event of problem (speed
above 12 mph (20 km/h)).
This warning lamp is displayed
in the instrument panel and/or a
message appears in the screen,
accompanied by an audible signal,
to identify the wheel concerned.
)
Check the tyre pressures as soon
as possible.
This check must be carried out when
the tyres are cold.
Under-infl ated tyre
The STOP
warning lamp comes
on and/or this warning lamp
is displayed in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message in
the screen identifying the wheel
concerned.
)
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so,
avoiding any sudden movement of
the steering wheel and the brakes.
)
Repair or change the damaged
wheel (punctured or very defl ated
tyre), and have the tyre pressure
checked as soon as possible.
Puncture
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for the driver to
be vigilant or to drive responsibly.
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
This warning lamp is displayed
on the instrument panel and/
or a message appears in the
screen, accompanied by an
audible signal, to locate the wheel or
wheels which are not detected or to in-
dicate a malfunction of the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).
This message is also displayed
when one of the wheels is away
from the vehicle (being repaired) or
when one or more wheels without a
sensor are fi tted.
If your vehicle is equipped with a
spare wheel, this is not fi tted with
a sensor.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Fitting a steel or "space-saver"
type spare wheel
If your vehicle is fi tted with alloy
wheels, it is normal to notice, when
tightening the bolts on fi tting, that the
washers do not come into contact
with the steel or "space-saver" type
spare wheel. The wheel is secured
by the conical contact of each bolt.
Access to the spare wheel
The spare wheel is supported by a
winch system underneath the rear of
the vehicle.

may be steel, alloy or of the "space-
saver" type.
Taking out the wheel
)
Lift up the cover eyelet, pull the
cover upwards, then pivot it to open
the fl ap; these actions release the
winch and give access to its control
nut.
)
Unscrew this nut fully, using the
wheelbrace 1
, to unwind the winch
cable.
)
Once the wheel/box is on the
ground, disengage the assembly
from the rear of the vehicle.
)
Detach the hook mechanism to
release the wheel/box assembly, as
shown in the illustration.
)
Take out the black plastic centring
cone.
Access to the set of tools
