Fitting the spare wheel
When using a non-uniform spare wheel, 
do not exceed 50  mph (80   km/h).
The spare wheel is not designed to 
be used over long distances. Have 
the tightening of the bolts and the tyre 
pressure of the spare wheel checked by a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop 
as soon as possible.
Also, have the original wheel repaired 
and refitted by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop as soon as possible.

 osition the wheel on the hub and start 
tightening the bolts by hand.
Ensure that the jack is stable. The foot 
of the jack must be in contact with the 
ground and directly below the jacking 
point used.
If the ground is slippery or loose, the jack 
may slip or drop – Risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is positioned only at 
one of jacking points 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 collapsing – Risk 
of injury!
Do not extend the jack until you have 
started unscrewing the bolts on the wheel 
to be changed and have placed the chock 
under the wheel diagonally opposite.
