PUNCTURE, EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL (1/2)
On equipped vehicles, this is located
underneath the chassis.
If the emergency spare
wheel has been stored
for several years, have it
checked by your dealer to
ensure that it is safe to use.
In some cases (puncture at the rear,
vehicle with towing equipment, etc.)
it may be necessary to lift the vehi-
cle beforehand (via the lifting point
closest to the affected wheel) to pro-
vide access to the emergency spare
wheel (please refer to the informa-
tion on “changing a wheel: vehicle
with standard wheels” in Section 5).

To remove the emergency spare
wheel
– Insert the end of the unlocking key 3
extended (depending on the vehicle)
by the hexagonal extension piece 5
and the wheelbrace 6 in location 1
or 4 (the use of other tools could
damage the mechanism);
– lower the emergency spare wheel fully;
– unclip the component 2 on the wheel
rim;
– thread the component 2 through the
wheel rim (as shown in A) to release
the wheel.

5.4
TOOL KIT
Location of the tool kit
Tool kit 1 is located under the driver’s
seat.
To remove the tools, move the seat
forward and fold down the seatback
(please refer to the information on the
“Front seats” in Section 1).
Contents of the tool kit(depending on the vehicle)
– hydraulic jack 2;
– towing hitch 3;
– hubcap tool 4;
1
Do not leave the tools unsecured inside the vehicle as they may come
loose under braking. After use, check that all the tools are correctly
clipped into the tool kit, then position it correctly in its housing: ri\
sk of
injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the tool kit, you must only use these bol\
ts for the
emergency spare wheel: refer to the label affixed to the emergency spare wheel.
The jack is designed for wheel changing purposes only. Under no circumstances
should it be used for carrying out repairs underneath the vehicle or to \
gain access
to the underside of the vehicle.
Nothing should be placed
on the floor area in front of
the driver as such objects
may slide under the pedal
during braking manoeuvres, thus
obstructing its use.

TOWING: breakdown (1/2)
The steering wheel must be un-
locked and the ignition key must be
in position M (ignition on) to provide
brake lights and hazard warning
lights on the towed vehicle. At night
the vehicle must have its lights on.
Unhitch the trailer, etc., if one is
being towed.
You must observe the towing regu-
lations which apply in the country in
which you are driving: do not exceed
the towing weight for your vehicle.
Contact an approved dealer.
– Use a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed
must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, it is ad- visable not to exceed 15 mph
(25 km/h).
When the engine is
stopped, steering and brak-
ing assistance are not op-
erational.
Do not remove the key from
the ignition when the vehi-
cle is being towed.
Towing a vehicle with a
sequential gearbox
If the gearbox is stuck in a gear:
– switch on the ignition;
– select neutral with the brake pedal depressed;
– check that the gearbox is in neutral (by pushing the vehicle for example).
If you cannot find neutral you must tow
the vehicle with the front wheels raised.
The vehicle should always be towed
with the ignition switched off.
