hubcap tool 1, by inserting the tool into
valve recess 2.
To refit the wheel trim, align it with
valve 2. Push the retaining hooks in
fully, starting with side A near the valve,
followed by B and C, finishing at D op-
posite the valve.

bolts
To remove it without removing the
wheel, press it at the points indicated
by the arrows.
Turn it so that the retaining brackets
holding it in place behind the wheel
bolts are released.
To refit the hubcap, proceed in reverse
order.
Anti-theft bolts
If you use anti-theft bolts,use the in-
structions on the inside of the wheel
trim to position the bolts (wheel trim
may not be able to fit).

Place the jack 4 horizontally; the jack
head must be lined up with the sill 1
closest to the wheel concerned, as
shown by arrow 2.
Crank up the jack 4 by hand at first to
align the base plate (which should be
inclined further inwards than the jack
head).
Turn the wheelbrace until the wheel lifts
off the ground.
CHANGING A WHEEL (1/2)
Vehicles equipped with a jack
and wheelbrace
If necessary, remove the hubcap.
Use the wheelbrace 3 to slacken off
the wheel bolts. Fit it so that you press
downwards rather than pulling up-
wards.
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.
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 not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.Switch on the hazard warn-
ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level surface
where it will not slip.
Apply the parking brake and engage
a gear (first or reverse).
Ask all passengers to leave the ve-
hicle and keep them away from traf-
fic.

Undo the bolts and take off the wheel.
Fit the emergency spare wheel on the
central hub and turn it to locate the
mounting holes in the wheel and the
hub.
If bolts are supplied with the emergency
spare wheel, only use these bolts for
the emergency spare wheel.
Tighten the bolts, checking that the
wheel is correctly positioned on its hub
and lower the jack.
With the wheel on the ground, tighten
the bolts fully and have the tightness
of the bolts checked (tightening torque:
110 N.m) and the emergency spare
wheel pressure checked as soon as
possible.
CHANGING A WHEEL (2/2)
If you have a puncture, re-
place the wheel as soon
as possible. A tyre which
has been punctured should
always be inspected (and repaired,
where possible) by a specialist.
Anti-theft bolts
If you use anti-theft bolts, please
refer to the instructions given on
the interior of the wheel trim to posi-
tion the bolts (wheel trim may not be
able to fit).

TYRES (1/3)
Tyre and wheel safety
The tyres are the only contact between
the vehicle and the road, so it is essen-
tial to keep them in good condition.
You must make sure that your tyres
conform to local road traffic regulations.
For your safety, please re-
spect the speed limit.
When they need to be re-
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and profile
should be used on a single axle.
They must: either have a load ca-
pacity and speed rating at least
equal to those of the original
tyres, or conform to those recom-
mended by an authorised dealer.
Failure to heed these instructions
could endanger your safety and
affect your vehicle’s roadworthi-
ness.
Risk of loss of control of the ve-
hicle.
Maintaining the tyres
The tyres must be in good condition
and the tread form must have sufficient
depth; tyres approved by our Technical
Department have wear warning strips 1
which are indicators moulded into
the tread at several points.When the tyre tread has been worn
to the level of the warning strips, they
become visible 2: it is then neces-
sary to replace your tyres because the
tread rubber is now only 1.6 mm deep
at most, resulting in poor road hold-
ing on wet roads.
An overloaded vehicle, long journeys
by motorway, particularly in very hot
weather, or continual driving on poorly
surfaced minor roads will lead to more
rapid tyre wear and affect safety.
Incidents which occur when
driving, such as striking the
kerb, may damage the tyres
and wheel rims, and could
also lead to misalignment of the
front or rear axle geometry.
In this case, have the condition of
these checked by an approved
dealer.

TYRES (2/3)
Tyre pressures
Adhere to the tyre pressures (including
the emergency spare wheel). The tyre
pressures should be checked at least
once a month and additionally before
any long journey (refer to the label af-
fixed to the edge of the driver’s door).
Pressures should be checked when the
tyres are cold; ignore higher pressures
which may be reached in hot weather
or following a fast journey.
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, assume an in-
crease of 0.2 to 0.3 bar.
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Special note
Depending on the vehicle, there may
be an adapter which needs to be posi-
tioned on the valve before air is added.
Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or miss-
ing valve cap can make the
tyres less airtight and lead
to pressure loss. Always use valve
caps identical to the original ones
and ensure they are tightly screwed
on.
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre wear
and unusually hot running.
These are factors which
may seriously affect safety and lead
to:
– poor road holding,
– risk of bursting or tread separa-
tion.
The pressure depends on the load
and the speed of use. Adjust the
pressure according to the condi-
tions of use (refer to the label affixed
to the edge of the driver’s door).
Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure
loss warning system
If under-inflated (puncture, low pres-
sure, etc.), the warning light
on
the instrument panel comes on. See
“Tyre pressure loss warning” in
Section 2.

Use in winter
Chains
For safety reasons, fitting snow
chains to the rear axle is strictly for-
bidden.
Chains must not be fitted to tyres
which are larger than those originally
fitted to the vehicle.
TYRES (3/3)
Snow or Winter tyres
We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure that
your vehicle retains maximum adhe-
sion.
Warning: These tyres sometimes
have a specific direction of rotation
and a maximum speed index which
may be lower than the maximum
speed of your vehicle.
Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation.
It is necessary to observe the speed
specified by current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.
In all cases, we would recommend
that you contact your approved
Dealer who will be able to advise
you on the choice of equipment
which is most suitable for your ve-
hicle.
Chains may only be fitted
to tyres of the same size
as those originally fitted to
your vehicle.
Only certain chains can be fitted to
tyres. Consult an approved dealer.
Special note for versions fitted
with 16” wheels: snow chains
may not be fitted.
If you wish to fit snow chains, you
must use special equipment.
Consult your approved dealer.
Changing wheels around
This practice is not recommended.
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on “Puncture”
and “Changing a wheel” in Section 5.
Fitting new tyres
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
– it may mean that your vehicle no
longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– It may change the way it handles
when cornering;
– It may cause the steering to be
heavy;
– it may affect the use of snow
chains.
