Changing a wheel
cHangIng a WHeeL (1/2)
Vehicles equipped with
jack, wheelbrace and wheel
wrench
If necessary, remove the wheel trim.
Use wheelbrace 1 to slacken off the
wheel bolts. Fit it so that you press
downwards rather than pulling up -
wards.
Switch on the hazard warn-
ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level sur -
face where it will not slip (if neces -
sary, place a solid support under the
jack base).
Apply the parking brake and engage
a gear (first or reverse).
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.

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.
Offer up jack 2 horizontally; the jack
head must be lined up with sill 3 as
close as possible to the wheel con -
cerned.
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.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.

This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation. It is neces -
sary to observe the speed specified by
current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.

Chains may only be fitted
to tyres of the same size
as those originally fitted to
your vehicle.
Chains may be fitted, provided that
they are specific chains. We would
advise you to consult an approved
Dealer.
s pecial notes on versions fitted
with 17” wheels: they cannot be
fitted with snow chains.
If you wish to use special equip-
ment, consult an approved dealer.

Steering becomes heavy. Assistance overheating.Leave to cool.
Faulty power-assisted steering. Consult an approved dealer.
The engine overheats. The coolant
temperature warning light comes on (or
the indicator needle is in the red area). Coolant pump: belt stretched or

Coolant leaks. Check the condition of hoses and the
tightness of the clips.
Check the expansion bottle: it should
contain coolant. If it does not, top it up
(once it has cooled). Take care not

system, it must be refilled with a new mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved
by our Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
