indicated on the base of the car-
tridge.
The cartridge is designed for a sin-
gle use; even if only partly used, it
must be replaced.
After use, do not discard the car-
tridge into the environment, take it
to a CITROËN dealer or to an au-
thorised waste disposal site.
Do not forget to obtain a new
sealant cartridge, available from
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.

to
the end of its travel to lower the
spare wheel carrier; the spare
wheel is now resting on the
ground.
)
Pull the wheel towards you and
pass the linking plate through
the centre of the wheel.
With the damaged wheel
now under the vehicle fl oor,
the vehicle has reduced
ground clearance, so take extra
care when reversing or driving on
uneven surfaces, including kerbs.
Retrieval of the spare wheel and
stowage of the affected road wheel
are operations that should be done
with the vehicle standing on its
wheels, not supported by the jack.
Putting the wheel back in place
)
The tyre valve must be facing
upwards.
)
Pass the linking plate through
the centre of the wheel (fi rst re-
moving the central trim on cer-
tain alloy wheels).
)
Turn the carrier drive anti-clock-
wise
to draw in the carrier cable.
Initially the drive will turn freely,
then the cable will tighten to raise
the wheel.
Check that the wheel is tight
against the vehicle fl oor and
not interfering with other nearby
components (e.g. the exhaust).
)

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Wheel for temporary use
If your vehicle is equipped with a
spare wheel for temporary use only,
when fi tting this it is normal to observe
that the wheel bolts do not come to
bear directly on the wheel rim.
The spare wheel is secured by the
conical section of each wheel bolt.
When refi tting the original wheel, en-
sure that the wheel bolts and wash-
ers are clean and in good condition.
Fitting a wheel
)
Position the wheel with the aid of
the centring guide 3
.
)
Do up the 3 bolts by hand, then
remove the centring guide 3
.
Position the 4
th bolt.
)
Pre-tighten the wheel bolts, us-
ing the wheelbrace 4
.
)
Retract the jack 5
and disengage
it.
)
Tighten the wheel bolts, using
the wheelbrace 4
.
)
Ensure that the tyre pressure is
correct.
Under-infl ation detection
These wheels have tyre pressure
sensors. It is essential to have repairs
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop. The spare wheel
does not have a sensor.
Security bolts (alloy wheels)
Each wheel may be equipped with
one security bolt (depending on
country of sale).
To remove it:
)
remove the protector that is cov-
ering it by means of the tool for
removing the chrome covers 2
.
)
use the security bolt socket 6
with the wheelbrace 4
.
Dimension of the spare
wheel
If your spare wheel has dimensions
different from those of the normal ve-
hicle wheels (identifi ed by a label),
you must use the spare wheel only
temporarily, drive with caution, not
exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) and have
the tyre repaired and the normal
wheel refi tted as soon as possible.
Tyre pressures
These are indicated on the label
on the right-hand front door pil-
lar (see section "Technical Data -
§ Identifi cation markings").
The wheel bolts are specifi c
to each type of wheel.
If new wheels are fi tted,
check with your CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop that the
wheel bolts are compatible with the
new wheels.
Note: make a note of the code
number on the head of the security
bolt socket. This will enable you to
obtain a replacement security bolt
socket from a CITROËN dealership.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Towbar suitable for the attachment
of a trailer with additional lighting
and signalling.
Your vehicle is primarily designed
for transporting people and luggage,
but it may also be used for towing a
trailer.
We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their har-
nesses that have been tested and
approved from the design stage
of your vehicle, and that the fi t-
ting of the towbar is entrusted to
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a
CITROËN dealer, it is imperative
that it is fi tted in accordance with the
vehicle manufacturer's instructions.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads
)
Distribute the load in the trailer
so that the heaviest items are as
close as possible to the axle and
the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without ex-
ceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude,
thus reducing engine performance.
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10 %
for every 1 000 metres of altitude.
Refer to the "Technical Data" section
for details of the weights and towed
loads which apply to your vehicle.
Side wind
)
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.
)
To lower the engine speed, re-
duce your speed.
The maximum towed load on a long
incline depends on the gradient and
the ambient temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the
coolant temperature.
)
If the warning lamp and
the STOP
warning lamp
come on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the brak-
ing distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes
on a long mountain type of descent,
the use of engine braking is recom-
mended.
Tyres
)
Check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle and of the trailer,
observing the recommended
pressures.
Lighting
)
Check the electrical lighting and
signalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a gen-
uine CITROËN towbar is used.
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
the driver must take particular care.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled,
its cooling capacity is not dependent
on the engine speed.
