PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Fitting the steel spare wheel
If your vehicle is fi tted with alloy
wheels, it is normal to notice, when
tightening the bolts on fi tting, that
the washers do not come into con-
tact with the steel spare wheel. The
wheel is secured by the conical
contact of each bolt.
Access to the spare wheel
The spare wheel is installed in the boot
under the fl oor.
According to country, the spare wheel
may be steel or alloy.
For access to it, refer to the paragraph
"Access to the tools". Taking out the wheel
Unscrew the yellow central bolt.
Raise the spare wheel towards you
from the rear.
Take the wheel out of the boot.
Putting the wheel back in place
Put the wheel back in its housing.
Unscrew the yellow central bolt by a few turns then put it in place in the
centre of the wheel.
Tighten fully until the central bolt clicks to retain the wheel correctly.
Put the box back in place in the c entre of the wheel and clip it.
Tyre under-infl ation detection
The spare wheel is not fi tted with a
sensor. The punctured wheel must
be repaired by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
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, switch off
the ignition and engage fi rst gear *
to lock the wheels.
If necessary, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the
wheel to be changed.
It is imperative that you ensure that
the occupants get out of the ve-
hicle and wait where they are safe.
Never go underneath a vehicle
raised using a jack; use an axle
stand.
Removing a wheel List of operations
Remove the bolt cover from each of the bolts using the tool 3 .
Fit the security socket 4 on the
wheelbrace 1 to slacken the security
bolt.
Slacken the other bolts using the wheelbrace 1 only.
Place the jack 2 in contact with one
of the two front A or rear B locations
provided on the underbody, which-
ever is closest to the wheel to be
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 suf- fi cient space between the wheel and
the ground to admit the spare (not
punctured) wheel easily.
Remove the bolts and store them in a clean place.
Remove the wheel.
* position P for the automatic gearbox.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
SNOW CHAINS
In wintry conditions, snow chains im-
prove traction as well as the behaviour
of the vehicle when braking. The snow chains must be fi tted
only to the front wheels. They
must never be fi tted to "space-
saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in
force in your country on the use
of snow chains and the maximum
running speed authorised. Advice on installation
If you have to fi t the chains during
a journey, stop the vehicle on a fl at
surface on the side of the road.
Apply the parking brake and posi- tion any wheel chocks to prevent
movement of your vehicle.
Fit the chains following the instruc- tions provided by the manufacturer.
Move off gently and drive for a few moments, without exceeding
30 mph (50 km/h).
Stop your vehicle and check that the snow chains are correctly tightened.
Avoid driving on roads that have
been cleared of snow, to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres
and the road surface. It is recom-
mended that before you leave,
you practise fi tting the snow
chains on a level and dry surface.
If your vehicle is fi tted with alloy
wheels, check that no part of the
chain or its fi xings is in contact
with the wheel rim.
Use only the chains designed to be fi t-
ted to the type of wheel fi tted to your
vehicle:
For more information on snow chains,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Risk of electrocution
Xenon bulbs (D1S) must be re-
placed by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
CHANGING A BULB
Model with halogen headlamps
1. Direction indicators (PY 21W amber).
2. Dipped beam headlamps (H7).
3. Main beam headlamps (H1).
4. Daytime running lamps / sidelamps (LEDs).
5. Foglamps (H8). 1. Direction indicators
(PY21W SV silver).
2. Directional dipped / main beam headlamps (D1S).
3. Additional main beam headlamps (H1).
4. Daytime running lamps / sidelamps (LEDs).
5. Foglamps (H8).
Model with xenon and directional
headlamps
The headlamps are fi tted with poly-
carbonate glass with a protective
coating:
do not clean them using a dry
or abrasive cloth, nor with a
detergent or solvent product,
use a sponge and soapy water or a pH neutral product,
when using a high pressure washer on persistent marks, do
not keep the lance directed to-
wards the lamps or their edges
for too long, so as not to dam-
age their protective coating and
seals.
Front lamps
Changing a bulb should only be
done after the headlamp has been
switched off for a few minutes (risk
of serious burns).
Do not touch the bulb directly with your fi ngers, use a lint-free
cloth.
It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs to avoid
damaging the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specifi cation.
