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 product 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.

5.4
TYRE INFLATION KIT (2/4)
In the event of a puncture, use the kit
situated under the passenger footwell 1
by unscrewing the two screws 2.With the engine running and the
parking brake applied,
– Connect the compressor hose 4 to
the container inlet 9;
– remove the cap from the container inflation adapter 3;
– unscrew the valve cap on the rele- vant wheel and screw on the contai-
ner’s inflation adapter 3;
– disconnect any accessories pre- viously connected to the vehicle’s
accessories sockets;
– the end piece 7 must be plugged in
to the vehicle accessories socket;
563
Before using this kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the handbrake, ask all
passengers to leave the vehicle and
keep them away from traffic.
9
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.
– press switch 5 to inflate the tyre to
the recommended pressure (please
refer to the information on “Tyre in-
flation pressure” in Section 4);
– after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop inflating and read the pressure (on
pressure gauge 6).
Note: While the container empties (approx. 30 secs), the pressure
gauge 6 briefly shows pressure up to
6 bar, then the pressure drops.
– Adjust the pressure: to increase it, continue inflation with the kit; to
reduce it, press button 8.

Tyre and wheel safetyThe 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 worn
to the level of the warning strips, they
become visible
2: it is then neces-
sary to replace your tyres because the
tread rubber is now only 1.6 mm deep
at most, resulting in poor road hold-
ing 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.
TYRES (1/3)
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.

2
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 wear warning strips
1 which are indicators moulded into
the tread at several points.

5.8
Tyre pressuresAdhere to the tyre pressures. The tyre
pressures should be checked at least
once a month and additionally before
any long journey (refer to the label af-
fixed to the edge of the driver’s door).
The pressures should be checked cold:
ignore higher pressures which may be
reached in hot weather or following a
high speed journey.Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure
loss warning system
If under-inflated (puncture, low pressure
etc.), the warning light
 on the in-
strument panel comes on. See “Tyre
pressure loss warning” in Section 2.
Fitting new tyres
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist. Fitting differ-
ent tyres may change your
vehicle as follows:
– it may mean that your vehicle no longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– it may change the way it handles when cornering;
– it may cause the steering to be heavy;
– it may affect the use of snow chains.
If the pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, increase the
pressures from 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Changing wheels around
TYRES (2/3)
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.
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
pressure according to the condi-
tions of use (refer to the label affixed
to the edge of the driver’s door).
The front and rear wheels
have different dimensions.
For safety reasons, it is not
permitted to switch the front
wheels (tyres and/or rims) with the
rear wheels.

5.9
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.
Use in winter
Chains
For safety reasons, only fit chains
on the rear axle.
Chains cannot be fitted to tyres which
are larger than those originally fitted to
the vehicle.
Snow or winter tyres
We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure that
your vehicle retains maximum adhe-
sion.
Warning: These tyres sometimes have
a specific direction of rotation and 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 neces-
sary to observe the speed specified by
current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.
TYRES (3/3)
Chains may only be fitted
to tyres of the same size
as those originally fitted to
your vehicle.
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.
16” wheels cannot be
fitted with chains.
If you wish to fit snow
chains, you must use spe-
cial equipment.
Consult an approved Dealer.
17” wheels cannot be
fitted with chains.
To obtain equivalent special
equipment, consult an ap-
proved dealer.

TOWING: breakdown recovery (1/2)
Towing a vehicle with an
automatic gearbox
With the engine switched off, the trans-
mission is no longer lubricated. It is
preferable to tow this type of vehicle on
a trailer or tow it with the rear wheels off
the ground.
In exceptional circumstances, you
may tow it with all four wheels on the
ground, only in a forward gear, with the
gear in neutral position N, over a maxi-
mum distance of 31 miles (50 km) and
not exceeding a speed of 15.5 mph
(25 km/h).
If the gear lever cannot be put into the
N position, please consult an autho-
rised dealer.1
2
Before any towing, put the gears into
neutral (neutral position for vehicles
equipped with a manual gearbox or N
position for vehicles equipped with an
automatic gearbox).
Unlock the steering column; the igni-
tion key must be in “ M” position (ig-
nition) to enable signalling (“Stop”
lights, hazard warning lights, etc.).
Always switch on the lights when
driving at night.
Release the parking brake.
It is also essential to observe the towing
regulations imposed by current legisla-
tion in your country. Please contact an
authorised dealer.
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.
3
If the lever is locked in position P ,
even though you are depressing the
brake pedal and pressing the unlock-
ing button 1 , the lever can still be re-
leased manually. To do this, unclip the
base of the gear lever 2 starting on the
side below the air conditioning controls.
Then raise the button 3 and simulta-
neously press the unlock button 1 on
the lever.
Contact an authorised dealer as soon
as possible.
