BODYWORK MAINTENANCE (1/2)
You should
Wash your car frequently, with the
engine off, with cleaning products rec-
ommended by the manufacturer (never
use abrasive products). Rinse thor-
oughly beforehand with a jet:
– spots of tree resin and industrial
grime;
– mud in the wheel arches and under-
neath the body which forms damp
patches;
– bird droppings , which cause a
chemical reaction with the paint that
rapidly discolours paintwork and
may even cause the paint to peel
off;
wash the vehicle immediately to
remove these marks since it is im-
possible to remove them by polish-
ing;
– salt, particularly in the wheel arches
and underneath the body after driv-
ing in areas where the roads have
been gritted.
Remove any plant matter (resin, leaves,
etc.) from the vehicle regularly.
What you should not doDo not degrease or clean mechani-
cal components (e.g. the engine com-
partment), underneath the body, parts
with hinges (e.g. inside the doors) and
painted plastic external fittings (e.g.
bumpers) using high-pressure clean-
ing equipment or by spraying on prod-
ucts not approved by our Technical
Department. Doing this could give rise
to corrosion or operational faults.
Wash the vehicle in bright sunlight or
freezing temperatures.
Do not scrape off mud or dirt without
pre-wetting.
Allow dirt to accumulate on the exterior.
Allow rust to form following minor im-
pacts.
Do not use solvents not approved by
our Technical Department to remove
stains as this could damage the paint-
work.
Do not drive in snow or muddy condi-
tions without washing the vehicle, par-
ticularly under the wheel arches and
body.
A well-maintained vehicle will last
longer. It is therefore recommended to
maintain the exterior of the vehicle reg-
ularly.
Your vehicle has been treated with very
effective anti-corrosion products. It is
nevertheless subject to various outside
influences.
Corrosive agents in the atmosphere
–
atmospheric pollution (built-up and
industrial areas),
– saline atmospheres (near the sea,
particularly in hot weather),
– seasonal and damp weather condi-
tions (e.g. road salt in winter, water
from road cleaners, etc.).
Minor impacts
Abrasive action
Dust and sand in the air, mud, road grit
thrown up by other vehicles, etc.
You should take a number of minor pre-
cautions in order to safeguard your ve-
hicle against such risks.

In case of puncture
Depending on the vehicle, a tyre infla-
tion kit or emergency spare wheel is
provided (refer to the following pages).
Special note
The Tyre Pressure Monitor function
does not check the emergency spare
wheel (the wheel replaced by the emer-
gency spare wheel disappears from the
instrument panel display).
Refer to the information on the “Tyre
pressure monitoring system” in
Section 2.
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.
Vehicles fitted with an emergency spare wheel smaller than the
four other wheels:
– Never fit more than one emergency spare wheel to the same vehicle.
– Replace the emergency spare wheel as soon as possible with a wheel with \
the same dimensions as the original.
– When this is fitted to the vehicle, which must only be a temporary measu\
re, the driving speed must not exceed the speed indicated on the label on the wh\
eel.
– Fitting an emergency spare wheel may alter the way the vehicle usually r\
uns. Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration and reduce your speed when cor-\
nering.
– If you need to use snow chains, fit the emergency spare wheel to the rea\
r axle and check the tyre pressure.
PUNCTURE/EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL (1/3)
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.

5.3
PUNCTURE/EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL (2/3)
Emergency spare wheel A
This is located in the luggage compart-
ment:
– open the tailgate;
– lift the carpet 1;– unscrew central mounting 2;
– for vehicles which are fitted with it, disconnect the connector 3 located
under the luggage compartment
carpet then remove the audio ampli-
fier. Do not plug in the audio amplifier
again without the emergency spare
wheel;
– remove the emergency spare wheel;
– store the punctured wheel in the storage bag (refer to the information
on “Tools” in section 5) and place it in
the luggage compartment.

Emergency spare wheel C
It is located under the vehicle.
From the boot:
– for vehicles fitted with a servo 5, un-screw the three mounting bolts 4
then move the servo to access the
cover 7;
– lift cover 7; – remove blanking cover;
– only use the wheel brace
6 (using
a different tool could damage the
mechanism) to unroll the retaining
cable (movement B), and the wheel
falls to the ground.

From the exterior of the vehicle, stand
the wheel up, pass the cable and the
component 8 through the wheel rim and
release the wheel.
To put the spare wheel back C
To carry out this operation, the cable
must be unwound.
Stand the wheel up with the valve to-
wards you. Thread the cable and the
component 8 through the wheel rim. Lie
the wheel down with the valve towards
the ground.
PUNCTURE/EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL (3/3)
Reposition the blanking cover then the
cover 7.
For vehicles fitted with a servo, replace
the servo 5. Tighten the three screws 4.

From the luggage compartment, tighten
the bolt fully in order to wind the retain-
ing cable, ensuring that the wheel re-
mains horizontal and the cable taut.
As the punctured wheel is wider than the emergency spare wheel, when
you place the punctured wheel in the emergency spare wheel bay, the
vehicle’s ground clearance is reduced. To prevent damage, proceed ca-
refully when driving over raised sections of road and when dismounting
pavements When this is fitted to the vehicle, which must only be a tempo\
rary
measure, the driving speed must not exceed the speed indicated on the la\
bel
on the wheel. Replace the emergency spare wheel as soon as possible with\
a
wheel with the same dimensions as the original.

5.5
TYRE INFLATION KIT (1/4)
The kit is only approved for
inflating the tyres of the ve-
hicle originally equipped
with the kit.
It must never be used to inflate
the tyres of another vehicle, or any
other inflatable object (rubber ring,
rubber boat, etc.).
Avoid spillage on skin when hand-
ling the repair liquid bottle. If drop-
lets do leak out, rinse them off with
plenty of water.
Keep the repair kit away from chil-
dren.
Do not dispose of the empty bottle
in the countryside. Return it to your
approved dealer or to a recycling or-
ganisation.
The bottle has a limited service
life which is indicated on its label.
Check the expiry date.
Contact an approved dealer to re-
place the inflation tube and repair
product bottle.
A
B
The kit repairs tyres when
tread A has been dam-
aged by objects smaller
than 4 mm. It cannot repair
all types of puncture, such as cuts
larger than 4 mm, or cuts in tyre
sidewall B.
Ensure also that the wheel rim is in
good condition.
Do not pull out the foreign body
causing the puncture if it is still in
the tyre.
Do not attempt to use the
inflation kit if the tyre has
been damaged as a result
of driving with a puncture.
You should therefore carefully check
the condition of the tyre sidewalls
before any operation.
Driving with underinflated, flat or
punctured tyres can be dangerous
and may make the tyre impossible
to repair.
This repair is temporary.
A tyre which has been punctured
should always be inspected (and re-
paired, where possible) as soon as
possible by a specialist.
When taking a tyre which has been
repaired using this kit to be replaced,
you must inform the specialist.
When driving, vibration may be felt
due to the presence of the repair
product injected into the tyre.

5.6
TYRE INFLATION KIT (2/4)
Depending on the vehicle, in the event
of a puncture, use the kit located in
storage compartment C or underneath
luggage compartment carpet D.
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.
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.

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;

– press the switch 4 to inflate the
tyre to the recommended pressure
(please refer to the information about
“Tyre Pressures” 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 indicate briefly
a pressure of 6 bar, then the pres-
sure drops.
– Adjust the pressure: to increase it, continue inflation with the kit; to
reduce it, press button 7.

TOOLS (1/2)
Do not leave the tools un-
secured 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 posi-
tion it correctly in its housing: risk of
injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the tool
kit, you must use these bolts, and
only these, 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 un-
derside of the vehicle.
The presence of the tools depends on
the vehicle.
