Fitting the "space-saver"
spare wheel
If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels,
when  tightening   the   bolts   on   fitting,   it  
i

  spare   wheel.   The   wheel  
i

s secured by the conical sur face of
each
  bolt.
After changing a wheel
To correctly store the punctured wheel
in the boot ( not in the location for the
space-saver wheel ), first remove the
central
  cover.
When
  using   the   "space-saver"   type  
s

pare   wheel,   do   not   exceed   50   mph  
(

80 km/h).
Have
  the   tightening   of   the   bolts   and   the  
p

ressure   of   the   spare   wheel   checked  
b

y a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop
  without   delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired
and refitted to the vehicle as soon as
possible.
