TYRE INFLATION KIT (2/4)
In the event of a puncture, use the kit
located under the trunk carpet 1.With the engine running and the
parking brake applied,
– connect the compressor hose 3 to
the container’s inlet 8;
– remove the cap from the container inflation adapter 2;
– unscrew the valve cap on the rel- evant wheel and screw on the con-
tainer’s inflation end piece 2;
– disconnect any accessories previ- ously connected to the vehicle’s ac-
cessories sockets;
– the end piece 6 must be plugged in
to the vehicle accessories socket;
452
Before using the kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the parking brake, ask
all passengers to leave the vehicle
and keep them away from traffic.
8
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.
– press the switch 4 to inflate the
tyre to the recommended pressure
(please refer to the information about
“Tyre Pressure” in section 4);
– after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop inflating and read the pressure (on
pressure gauge 5).
Note: While the bottle is emptying
(approximately 30 seconds), the
pressure gauge 5 will briefly indicate
a pressure of 6 bar, then the pres-
sure will drop.
– adjust the pressure: to increase it, continue inflation with the kit; to
reduce it, press the button 7.

CHANGING A WHEEL (1/2)
2
Crank up the jack by hand at first to
align the base plate (which should be
inclined further inwards than the jack
head).
Turn the wheelbrace until the wheel lifts
off the ground.
Vehicles equipped with a jack
and wheelbrace
If necessary, remove the wheel trim.
Use the wheelbrace 2 to slacken off the
wheel bolts. Position it so as to be able
to push from above.
Place the jack 3 horizontally; the jack
head must be lined up with the sill clos-
est to the wheel concerned, as shown
by an arrow 1.
Switch on the hazard warn-
ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level surface
where it will not slip.
Apply the parking brake and engage
a gear (first or reverse, or P for auto-
matic transmissions).
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your authorised dealer.

TYRES (2/3)
Tyre pressures
Adhere to the tyre pressures (including
the emergency spare wheel). The tyre
pressures should be checked at least
once a month and additionally before
any long journey (refer to the label af-
fixed to the edge of the driver’s door).The pressures should be checked cold:
ignore higher pressures which may be
reached in hot weather or following a
high speed journey.
If the tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are
cold, increase the
pressures from 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Special note
Depending on the vehicle, there may
be an adapter which needs to be posi-
tioned on the valve before air is added. Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure
monitoring system
In cases of under-inflation (puncture,
low pressure, etc.), warning light
lights up on the instrument panel.
Please refer to the information on the
«Tyre pressure monitoring system» in
Section 2.
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on “Puncture”
and “Changing a wheel” in Section 5.
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre wear
and unusually hot running.
These are factors which
may seriously affect safety and lead
to:
– poor road holding,
– risk of bursting or tread separa- tion.
The pressure depends on the load
and the speed of use. Adjust the
pressure according to the condi-
tions of use (refer to the label affixed
to the edge of the driver’s door).
Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or missing
valve cap can make the
tyres less airtight and lead
to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
those fitted originally and tighten
them fully.
