Practical information
Remove the bolts and store them in a clean place. Remove the wheel.
Extend the jack 2 until it comes into contact with the location A or B used; the contact sur face A or B on the vehicle must be inserted into the central part of the head of the jack. Raise the vehicle until there is sufficient
space between the wheel and the ground to admit the spare (not punctured) wheel easily.
Ensure that the jack is stable. If the sur face is slippery or loose, the jack may slip or drop - Risk of injury! Take care to position the jack only at the location A or B under the vehicle,
ensuring that the contact sur face on the vehicle is well centred on the head of the jack. Otherwise there is a risk of damage to the vehicle and/or of the jack dropping - Risk of injury!

Fitting a wheel
Fitting the "space-saver" spare wheel
If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, when tightening the bolts on fitting, it is normal to notice that the washers do not come into contact with the "space-saver" spare wheel. The wheel is secured by the conical sur face of each bolt.
After changing a wheel
To store the punctured wheel in the boot correctly, first remove the central cover. When using the "space-saver" type spare wheel, do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h). Have the tightening of the bolts and the pressure of the spare wheel checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop without delay. Have the punctured wheel repaired and refitted to the vehicle as soon as possible.
List of operations
Put the wheel in place on the hub. Screw in the bolts fully by hand. Pre-tighten the security bolt using the wheelbrace 1 fitted with the security socket 4 (if your vehicle has them). Pre-tighten the other bolts using the wheelbrace 1 o n l y.
