Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Park the vehicle where it does not block
traffic: the ground must be level, stable
and non-slippery.
With a manual gearbox, engage first gear
then switch off the ignition to block the
wheels.
With an automatic gearbox, place the gear
selector to position P then switch off the
ignition to block the wheels.
With an electronic gearbox, place the gear
selector to position A then switch off the
ignition to block the wheels.
Apply the parking brake and check that
the warning lamp is on in the instrument
panel.
The passengers must get out of the
vehicle and wait where they are safe.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.F
P
lace the foot of the jack on the ground and
ensure that it is directly below the A or B
jacking point provided on the underbody,
whichever is closest to the wheel to be
changed.
Do not use:
-
t
he jack for any other purpose than
lifting the vehicle,
-
a j
ack other than the one supplied by
the manufacturer.

F Raise the vehicle using wheelbrace 1, 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 collapse – Risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is positioned only
at one of jacking points A or B under the
vehicle, making sure that the vehicle's
contact sur face is centred on the head
of the jack. Other wise there is a risk of
damage to the vehicle and/or of the jack
dropping – Risk of injury!

The steel spare wheel does not have a
sensor.
After changing a wheel
Stow the punctured wheel in the carrier.
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
Have the punctured wheel checked. After
inspection, the technician will let you know
if the tyre can be repaired or if it must be
replaced.
Some driving aid functions should be
disabled, e.g. the Active Safety Brake.
If your vehicle has tyre under-inflation
detection, check the tyre pressures and
reinitialise the system.
For more information on Under-inflation
detection , refer to the corresponding
section. Wheel with hub cap
When refitting the wheel
, refit the hub
cap starting by placing its notch facing the
valve and press around its edge with the
palm of your hand.
Fastening the steel 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
contact of each bolt.The tyre inflation pressures are given on
this label.
