The speed limit sticker must be secured
to the interior of the vehicle in the driver's
field of vision, to remind you that a wheel
is in temporary use.Take care, the sealant product is harmful
if swallowed and causes irritation to the
eyes.
Keep this product out of the reach of
children.
The use-by date of the fluid is marked on
the bottle.
After use, do not discard the bottle in
standard waste, take it to a CITROËN
dealer or an authorised waste disposal
site.
Do not forget to obtain a new bottle of
sealant, available from a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.

Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise 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 in position P then switch off the
ignition to block the wheels.
Apply the parking brake and check that
the indicator lamp is on in the instrument
panel.
The occupants 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.
With an electric parking brake, place
a chock against the wheel diagonally
opposite to the one being replaced.Wheel with wheel trim
When removing the wheel, first remove
the wheel trim by pulling at the valve
aperture using the wheelbrace. 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
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.
F

security bolt.
F
S
lacken (without removing) the other wheel
bolts using just wheelbrace 6 .

F Extend jack 7 until its head comes into contact with jacking point A or B , whichever
is used; the contact sur face A or B of the
vehicle must be correctly engaged in the
central part of the head of the jack.
F
Ra
ise the vehicle 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 drop – risk of injury!
Take care to place the jack only at the
jacking points A or B under the vehicle,
ensuring that the contact point of the
vehicle is centred on the jack head.
Other wise, there is a risk of damage to
the vehicle and/or the jack dropping – risk
of injury!

Fitting a steel or "space-saver" spare
wheel
If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels,
when tightening the bolts on refitting it is
normal to notice that the washers do not
come into contact with the steel or "space-
saver" spare wheel. The wheel is secured
by the conical contact of each bolt.
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 tyre examined. After
inspection, the technician will advise you
on whether 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 trim
When refitting the wheel , refit the trim
starting by placing its notch facing the
valve and press around its edge with the
palm of your hand.
The tyre inflation pressures are given on
this label.
Changing a bulb
The lamps have polycarbonate lenses with
a protective coating:
F
d
o not clean them using a dr y or
abrasive cloth, nor with a detergent
or solvent product,
F
u
se a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product,
F
w
hen using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep the
lance directed towards the lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to
damage their protective coating and
seals.
Changing a bulb should only be done after
the lamp has been switched off for several
minutes (risk of serious burns).
F
D
o not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers, use a lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
lamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a new
bulb of the same type and specification.

Light-emitting diodes (LED)
For the replacement of this type of bulb,
you must contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Halogen bulbs
To ensure good quality lighting, check
that the bulb is correctly positioned in its
housing.In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal sur face of the
glass of the headlamps and rear lamps is
normal; it disappears after the lamps have
been on for a few minutes.
Types of bulb
Various types of bulb are fitted to your vehicle.
To remove them:
Ty p e A
Ty p e B Ty p e C
Ty p e D
Halogen bulbs must be changed with the
lamp off for a few minutes (risk of severe
burns). Do not touch the bulb directly, use
a lint-free cloth.
When each operation has been
completed, check the operation of the
lighting.
All glass bulb: pull gently as it is fitted by
pressure.
Bayonet bulb: press on the bulb then turn it
anti-clockwise. Halogen bulb: release the retaining spring from
its housing.
Halogen bulb: turn the bulb anti-clockwise.
Opening the bonnet /Access to bulbs
With the engine warm, proceed with
caution – risk of burns!
Take care with objects or clothing that
could be caught in the blades of the
cooling fan – risk of strangulation!
After changing a bulb
When refitting, close the protective cover
very carefully to guarantee the sealing of
the lamp.
