Fitting a wheel
Fitting the 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 spare wheel.
The wheel is secured by the conical
sur face of each bolt.
After changing a wheel
When using a "space-saver" type of
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.
Stowing the wheel with
punctured tyre
The wheel with punctured tyre can be
stowed under the floor, in the housing
for the standard spare wheel.
To stow an alloy wheel, first remove the
trim from the middle of the wheel so that
the fixing parts (nut and bolt) can be put
in place.
In the case of a "space-saver" type
spare wheel, the wheel with punctured
tyre cannot be stowed under the floor. It
must be stowed in the boot; use a cover
to protect the inside of the boot.

Changing a bulb
Front lamps
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal sur face of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps
is normal; it disappears after the lamps
have been on for a few minutes.
The headlamps are fitted with
polycarbonate glass with a protective
coating:
F

d

o not clean them using a dr y
or abrasive cloth, nor with a
detergent or solvent product,
F

u

se a sponge and soapy water or a
pH neutral product,
F

w

hen using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep
the lance directed towards the
lamps or their edges for too long,
so as not to damage their protective
coating and seals.
Changing a bulb should only be done
after the headlamp has been switched
off for several minutes (risk of serious
burns).
F

D

o not touch the bulb directly with
your fingers, use a lint-free cloth.
It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs to avoid
damaging the headlamp.

new bulb with the same type and
specification. 1.
