PRACTICAL INFORMATION
If the vehicle is fi tted with tyre under-
infl ation detection, the tyre under-
infl ation warning lamp will remain on
after the wheel has been repaired
until the system is reinitialised by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Take care, the bottle of fl uid con-
tains ethylene-glycol. This product
is harmful if swallowed and causes
irritation to the eyes. Keep it out of
reach of children.
The expiry date of the fl uid is indi-
cated on the base of the bottle.
The bottle is designed for a single
use; even if only partly used, it must
be replaced.
After use, do not discard the bottle
into the environment, take it to a
PEUGEOT dealer or an authorised
waste disposal site.
Do not forget to obtain a new bottle
of sealant product, available from
PEUGEOT dealers.
)
Connect the compressor's electric
plug to the vehicle's 12 V socket
again.
)
Start the vehicle again and leave the
engine running.
)
Adjust the pressure using the
compressor (to infl ate: switch A
in
position "1"
; to defl ate: switch A
in
position "0"
and press button B
),
in accordance with the vehicle's
tyre pressure label (located on the
door aperture on the driver's side),
then remember to check that the
leak is plugged correctly (no further
loss of pressure after several miles
[kilometres]).
)
Remove the compressor, then store
the whole kit.
)
Visit a PEUGEOT dealer as
soon as possible to have the
tyre repaired or replaced by a
technician.

Fitting a steel 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 con-
tact with the steel spare wheel. The
wheel is secured by the conical
contact of each bolt.
Access to the spare wheel
The spare wheel is installed in the boot
under the fl oor.
According to country, the spare wheel
may be steel or alloy.
For access to it, refer to the paragraph
"Access to the tools" on the previous
page.
Taking out the wheel
)
Unscrew the yellow central bolt.
)
Raise the spare wheel towards you
from the rear.
)
Take the wheel out of the boot.
Putting the wheel back in place
)
Put the wheel back in its housing.
)
Unscrew the yellow central bolt by a
few turns then put it in place in the
centre of the wheel.
)
Tighten fully until the central bolt
clicks to retain the wheel correctly.
)
Put the box back in place in the
centre of the wheel and clip it.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Fitting a steel or "space-saver"
type spare wheel
If your vehicle is fi tted with al-
loy 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.
According to country, the spare wheel
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
)
Lift up the wheel to release the set
of tools.
)
To open the storage box, slide the
cover until half open, then pull it off.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Tyre under-infl ation detection
The spare wheel is not fi tted with
a sensor. The punctured wheel
must be repaired by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Putting the wheel back in place
)
Store tools 2
and 3
in the box and
close the cover.
)
Position the box on the ground.
)
Place the spare wheel on the box.
)
Fit the black plastic centring cone in
the centre of the wheel (on steel or
"space-saver" type wheels only).
)
Pass the hooking device through
the cone and the wheel to secure it
to the box cover.
)
Raise the wheel/box assembly
underneath the rear of the vehicle
by tightening the winch control nut
using the wheelbrace 1
.
)
Fully tighten the nut.
)
Close the fl ap with the eyelet and
cover to secure the winch.
)
Check that the wheel is located
squarely against the fl oor.
If not, repeat the operation.
If you purchase a wheel of standard
size to replace the "space-saver"
type spare wheel, the spacer, lo-
cated underneath the vehicle, must
be removed. Consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it
does not block traffi c: the ground
must be level, stable and non-slip-
pery ground.
Apply the parking brake, switch off
the ignition and engage fi rst gear *
to lock the wheels.
If necessary, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the
wheel to be changed.
It is imperative that you ensure that
the occupants get out of the vehicle
and wait where they are safe.
Never go underneath a vehicle
raised using a jack; use an axle
stand.
Removing the wheel
List of operations
)
Fit the security socket 3
on the
wheelbrace 1
to slacken the security
bolt.
)
Slacken the other bolts using the
wheelbrace 1
only.
)
Place the jack 2
in contact with
one of the two front A
or rear B
locations provided on the underbody,
whichever is closest to the wheel to
be changed.
)
Extend the jack 2
until its base plate
is in contact with the ground. Ensure
that the centreline of the jack base
plate is directly below the location A
or B
used.
)
Raise the vehicle until there is
suffi cient space between the wheel
and the ground to admit the spare
(not punctured) wheel easily.
)
