Remove tools or, depending on the ve-
hicle, the tool kit.
To remove the tool kit 1 from the lug-
gage compartment
Depending on the vehicle, it may be
stored behind a flap. Open it. Undo
wheel 2 and pull the tool kit towards
you.
To reposition the tool kit position tool
kit pin 4 into housing 3. Make sure the
kit is correctly positioned so as to be
able to tighten wheel 2.
The tools included in the tool kit depend
on the vehicle.

Do not leave the tools unse-
cured inside the vehicle as
they may come loose under
braking. After use, check
that the tools are correctly clipped
into the vehicle or, depending on the
vehicle, 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 only 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.
Jack 9
Refer to Section 5 “Changing a wheel”.

After use, reposition it, making sure that
it retains all components in the tool kit.

Guide bolt 6 (depending on vehicle)
To finish loosening or starting to tighten
the wheel bolts.
Tow eye 7 Refer to the information on the “Towing:
breakdown” in Section 5.
Wheel brace 8
To undo the wheel bolt and the emer-
gency spare wheel cage nut.

Wheel trim 3(exposed wheel bolts)
To remove it without removing the
wheel, press it at the points indicated
by the arrows.
Turn it so that the retaining brackets
holding it in place behind the wheel
bolts are released.
To refit the hubcap, proceed in reverse
order.Wheel trim 1(concealed wheel bolts)
Remove it using hubcap tool 2 (located
under the tool kit), by pushing the hook
into the opening located near the valve
(to reach the metal retaining wire lo-
cated behind the wheel trim).
To refit it, align it with the valve. Push the
retaining hooks, starting with side A on
the valve side, then B and C and finish

If necessary, remove the wheel trim.
Use the wheelbrace 2 to slacken off the
wheel bolts. Position it so as to be able
to push from above.
Start extending jack 4 by hand, turning
the handle.
You must put the jack head on the jack-
ing point 1 nearest the affected wheel
and, depending on the vehicle, the
place marked with a triangle.
Switch on the hazard warn-
ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level surface
where it will not slip.
Apply the handbrake and engage
position P.
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.
CHANGING A WHEEL (1/2)
Continue tightening to position the
baseplate on the ground correctly. Turn
handle 3 on the jack to lift the wheel off
the ground.
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.

5.9
Undo the bolts and take off the wheel.
For vehicles fitted with alloy wheels,
use the guide bolt located in the tool kit
to finish loosening and start tightening
the bolts.
Fit the emergency spare wheel on
the central hub and turn it to align the
mounting holes in the wheel and the
hub.
Tighten the bolts and lower the jack.
If bolts are supplied with the emergency
spare wheel, only use these bolts for
the emergency spare wheel.
Tighten the bolts, checking that the
wheel is correctly positioned on its hub
and unscrew the jack.
With the wheels on the ground, tighten
the bolts fully and check they are tight
as quickly as possible.
CHANGING A WHEEL (2/2)
Anti-theft bolts
If you use anti-theft bolts, fit these
nearest the valve (wheel trim may
not be able to fit).
If you have a puncture, re-
place the wheel as soon as
possible.
A tyre which has been punc-
tured should always be inspected
(and repaired, where possible) by a
specialist.

5.10
TYRES (1/3)Maintaining the tyres
The tyres must be in good condition
and the tread form must have sufficient
depth; tyres approved by our Technical
Department have tread wear indica-
tors 1 which are indicators moulded
into the tread at several points .
The tyres are the only contact between
the vehicle and the road, so it is essen-
tial to keep them in good condition.
You must make sure that your tyres
conform to local road traffic regulations.
When the tyre tread has been eroded
to the level of the warning strips, they
become visible 2: it is then necessary
to replace your tyres because the tread
profile is no more than 1.6
mm deep
and this causes poor road holding
on wet roads.
An overloaded vehicle, long journeys
by motorway, particularly in very hot
weather, or continual driving on poorly
surfaced minor roads will lead to more
rapid tyre wear and affect safety.
Incidents which occur when
driving, such as striking the
kerb, may damage the tyres
and wheel rims, and could
also lead to misalignment of the
front or rear axle geometry. In this
case, have the condition of these
checked by an approved dealer.

5.11
TYRES (2/3)
Pressures should be checked when the
tyres are cold; ignore higher pressures
which may be reached in hot weather
or following a fast journey.
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, the normal
pressures must be increased by 0.2 to
0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.Fitting new tyres
Tyre pressuresRespect the tyre pressures (including
the emergency spare wheel). Check
them at least once a month and before
a long journey (refer to the label on the
edge of the driver’s door).
Please refer to the information on “Tyre
pressures” in Section 4.
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre wear
and unusually hot running.
These are factors which
may seriously affect safety and lead
to:
– poor road holding;
– risk of bursting or tread separa- tion.
The pressure depends on the load
and the speed of use. Adjust the
pressures according to the condi-
tions of use (refer to the information
on “Tyre pressures”).
Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or miss-
ing valve cap can make the
tyres less airtight and lead
to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
those fitted originally and tighten
them fully.
For your safety, please re-
spect the speed limit.
When they need to be re-
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and profile
should be used on a single axle.
They must: either have a load ca-
pacity and a speed capacity at
least equal to the original tyres,
or correspond to those recom-
mended by your authorised
dealer.
Failure to heed these instructions
could endanger your safety and
affect your vehicle’s roadworthi-
ness.
Risk of loss of control of the ve-
hicle.

TYRES (3/3)
Changing wheels around
This practice is not recommended.
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on the
“Emergency spare wheel” and in-
structions on “Changing a wheel” in
Section 5.
Use in winter
– ChainsFor safety reasons, fitting snow
chains to the rear axle is strictly
forbidden.
Chains must not be fitted to tyres
which are larger than those originally
fitted to the vehicle.
Chains may only be fitted
to tyres of the same size
as those originally fitted to
your vehicle.
Only certain chains can be fitted to
tyres. Consult an approved Dealer.
– Snow or winter tyres We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure
that your vehicle retains maximum
grip.
Note: be aware that these tyres may
sometimes have:
– a direction of travel ;
– a maximum speed index which
may be lower than the maximum
speed of your vehicle.
– Studded tyres This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation.
It is necessary to observe the speed
specified by current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.
In all cases, we would recommend
that you contact an approved dealer
who will be able to advise you on
the choice of equipment which is
most suitable for your vehicle.
Note: the use of snow tyres, winter
tyres or studded tyres significantly re-
duces the vehicle range.

5.27
TOWING, BREAKDOWN (3/3)
Do not leave the tools unse-
cured 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, depending on the vehicle, po-
sition it correctly in its housing.
Risk of injury.
Only use the front and rear towing
points (never use the driveshafts).
These towing points may only be used
for towing: never use them for lifting the
vehicle directly or indirectly.

Access to towing points
Unclip cover 3 or 5.
Tighten the towing hitch 4 fully: first
by hand until it stops then finish by lock-
ing it with the wheel brace.
Towing hitch 4 and wheelbrace are lo-
cated in the tool kit in the luggage com-
partment (refer to the “Tool kit” informa-
tion in section 5).
Do not remove the key from
the ignition when the vehi-
cle is being towed.
