the kit, go to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Make sure that you tell the technician
that you have used the kit. After
checking, the technician will advise you
whether the tyre can be repaired or if it
must be replaced.

pressure using the compressor. If the
pressure has dropped slightly, inflate the
tyre again to the specified figure. Carry out
the same check after another 6 miles
(10 km) or 5 minutes: if the pressure
has not held at the specified figure, this
indicates that the puncture repair has not
sealed; contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop for roadside assistance.
If the pressure is correct, carefully tighten the
tyre valve cap. You can drive at reduced speed
(50 mph (80 km/h) max) to go to a CITROËN

The spare wheel is installed in the boot under
the floor.
Depending on version, the spare wheel may be
a standard size steel or alloy wheel, or for some
countries it is the "space saver" type.
For more information on the vehicle's tools
permitting access to the spare wheel, refer to
the corresponding section.

Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does
not block traffic; if possible, the ground
must be level, stable and not slippery.
Apply the parking brake, switch off the
ignition and engage first gear to block
the wheels.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.
List of operations
F If your vehicle has security bolts (available as an accessory), fit the security bolt
socket 5 to the wheelbrace 1 to slacken the
security bolt.
F
S
lacken the other bolts using the
wheelbrace 1 o n l y.
Never use:
-
t
he jack for anything other than
lifting the vehicle,
-
a j
ack other than the one provided
by the manufacturer.
The jack must only be used to change a
wheel with a damaged tyre.
The jack does not require any
maintenance.
The jack meets the European standard
as defined in Directive 2006/42/CE on
machinery.
The declaration of conformity can be
found at the end of this document.
The name and complete address of
the manufacturer or, as appropriate,
their representative, together with the
designation of the jack are given in this
certificate of conformity.

F Place the foot of the jack 2 on the ground and ensue that it is directly below the
front
A or rear B jacking point provided on
the underbody, whichever is closest to the
wheel to be changed.
F
E
xtend the jack 2 until it comes into contact
with the jacking point A or B used; the
contact area A or B on the vehicle must be
correctly inserted into the central part of
the head of the jack. F
Ra ise 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 ground is slippery or loose, the
jack may slip or drop - Risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is positioned only
at the jacking point A or B under the
vehicle, ensuring that the contact area
on the vehicle is correctly centred on
the head of the jack. Other wise there
is a risk of damage to the vehicle and/
or of the jack dropping or slipping - Risk
of injury!

Fitting the wheel
After changing a wheel
When using the "space-saving" 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 CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired
and refitted on the vehicle as soon as
possible.
List of operations
F Put the wheel in place on the hub.
F T ighten the bolts fully by hand.
F
P
re-tighten the anti-theft bolt using the
wheelbrace 1 fitted with the anti-theft
socket 5 (if your vehicle has one).
F
P
re-tighten the other bolts using only the
wheelbrace 1 .
Fitting snow tyres
If you fit your vehicle with snow tyres
fitted on steel rims, it is essential to use
special bolts available from CITROËN
dealers or a qualified workshop.
If the replacement of a tyre is
necessary on 4-wheel drive versions,
it is recommended that all four tyres be
replaced at the same time, ensuring
that the same make, model and size is
used on all wheels.
This is because using tyres of different
sizes, structure or rate of wear could
damage transmission components.
