The damaged wheel can be stowed under
the floor, in the standard spare wheel
housing.
To stow an alloy wheel, first remove the
hub cap from the middle of the wheel so
that the fastening device (nut and bolt) can
be put in place.
In the case of a "space-saver" type spare
wheel, the damaged wheel cannot be
stowed under the floor. It must be stowed
in the boot; use a
cover to protect the
inside of the boot.

For optimum ser vice life of the battery, it is
essential to maintain an adequate state of
charge.
In some circumstances it may be necessary to
charge the battery:
-

i
f you use your vehicle mostly for short
journeys,
-

i
f the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Contact the dealer network or a
qualified
workshop.
If you plan to charge your vehicle's battery
yourself, use only a
charger compatible
with lead-acid batteries of a
nominal
voltage of 12
V.
Follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities. It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
Never try to charge a frozen battery – Risk
of explosion!
If the battery has frozen, have it checked
in the dealer network or by a
qualified
workshop who will check that the internal
components have not been damaged and
that the container has not cracked, which
would mean a
risk of toxic and corrosive
acid leaking.
