1. PARKING THE VEHICLE
- The occupants must get out of the
vehicle and wait in a safe location.
- If possible, park the vehicle on level,
stable and non-slippery ground.
- Apply the parking brake, switch
off the ignition and engage fi rst or
reverse gear.
- If available, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the
one to be changed.
If the vehicle is fi tted with a towbar,
it is sometimes necessary to raise
the vehicle slightly to make it easier
to remove the spare wheel from its
carrier.
On certain types of ground and/or
if considerable loads are being
transported, call a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.

folding the jack, then remove the jack.

wheelbrace, tighten them fully
without forcing them.
