Switch off the headlamps and front
foglamps when the level of light does
not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving
off, particularly in winter; your vehicle
will warm up much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting
your multimedia devices (fi lm, music,
video game...), you will contribute to-
wards limiting the consumption of elec-
trical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices be-
fore leaving the vehicle.
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 ob-
serve the schedule of operations rec-
ommended by the manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after
the third 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 set-
tle down to a consistent average.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it
does not block traffi c: the ground
must be level, stable and non-
slippery ground.
Apply the parking brake unless
it has been programmed to au-
tomatic mode, switch off the ig-
nition and engage fi rst gear * to
lock the wheels.
Check that the braking warning
lamps in the instrument panel
are on (not fl ashing).
The occupants must get out of
the vehicle and wait where they
are safe.
If necessary, place a chock un-
der the wheel diagonally oppo-
site the wheel to be changed.
Never go underneath a vehicle
raised using a jack; use an axle
stand.
*
position R
for an electronic gearbox; P
for an automatic gearbox.
List of operations
Remove the chromed bolt cover from
each of the bolts using the tool 3
(according to equipment).
Fit the security socket 4
on the
wheelbrace 1
to slacken the secu-
rity bolt.
Slacken the other bolts using the
wheelbrace 1

in contact with one
of the two front A
or rear B
locations
provided on the underbody, which-

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 -

the ground to admit the spare (not
punctured) wheel easily.
Remove the bolts and store them in
a clean place.
