In the event of a breakdown
8– a jack other than the one supplied by the
manufacturer .


► Place the foot of the jack on the ground and
ensure that it is directly below jacking points A
or
B located on the underbody, whichever is closest
to the wheel to be changed.


► Extend the jack 6 until its head comes into
contact with jacking point A or B, whichever is to
be used; the contact area A or B on the vehicle
must be fit correctly into the central part of the
head of the jack.


► Raise the vehicle until there is sufficient
space between the wheel and the ground to
allow the spare (not punctured) wheel to be
easily fitted.


– Remove the bolts and store them in a clean
place.
–

Remove the wheel.
Ensure that the jack is stable. If the
ground is slippery or loose, the jack may
slip or collapse - risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is positioned strictly at
one of the jacking points A or B under the
vehicle, making sure that the vehicle's contact
surface is correctly centred on the head of the
jack. Otherwise, there is a risk of damage to
the vehicle and/or of the jack collapsing - risk
of injury!
Fitting the wheel

Fitting the "space-saver" spare wheel

160
In the event of a breakdown
If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, when
tightening the bolts on fitting, it is normal to
notice that the washers do not come into
contact with the "space-saver" spare wheel.
The wheel is secured by the conical contact
of each bolt.


► Put the wheel in place on the hub.
► Screw in the bolts by hand as far as possible.
►

Pre-tighten the anti-theft bolt using the
wheelbrace 5

fitted with the anti-theft socket 2
(according to equipment).
►

Pre-tighten the other bolts using wheelbrace
5

only.


► Lower the vehicle again fully .
► Unwind jack 6
to lower and detach it.


► Tighten the anti-theft bolt using the
wheelbrace 5 fitted with the anti-theft socket 2
(according to equipment).
►

T
ighten the other bolts using wheelbrace 5
only.
►

Refit
the bolt cover(s) (depending on version).
►

Store the tools in the support box.
After changing a wheel
To store the punctured wheel in the boot
correctly, first remove the central cover.
When using the "space-saver" type spare
wheel, do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).
Have the tightening of the bolts and the
pressure of the spare wheel checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired and
replace it on the vehicle as soon as possible.
If your vehicle has tyre under-inflation
detection, check the tyre pressures and
reinitialise the system.
For more information on Tyre under-inflation
detection, refer to the corresponding section.
Tyre inflation pressures are indicated on this label.
For more information on Identification
markings, particularly this label, refer to the
corresponding section.
Changing a bulb
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear
after the lamps have been on for a few
minutes.
The headlamps have polycarbonate lenses with a protective coating:
– Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive
cloth, nor with detergent or solvent
products.
– Use a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product.
– When using a high-pressure washer on
persistent marks, do not keep the lance
directed towards the headlamps, lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to damage
their protective coating and seals.
Changing a bulb must only be done with
the ignition off and after the headlamp /
lamp has been switched off for several
minutes - risk of serious burns!
Do 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
headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a new bulb
of the same type and specification. To avoid
lighting imbalance, replace the bulbs in pairs.

Quick-release terminal clamp
Disconnecting the (+) terminal

► Depending on equipment, lift the plastic cover
on the (+) terminal.
►

Raise lever

by lifting it off.
Reconnecting the (+) terminal

► Raise lever A fully.
► Refit the open clamp B on the (+) terminal.
► Push clamp B fully down.
► Lower lever A to lock clamp B.
►

Depending on equipment, lower the plastic
cover on the

(+) terminal.
Do not force the lever, as it will not lock
in place if the clamp is not positioned
correctly; start the procedure again.
Following reconnection
After reconnecting the battery, turn on the
ignition and wait 1 minute before starting the
engine, to enable the electronic systems to
initialise.
If minor problems nevertheless persist following
this operation, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Preset radio stations.
The Stop & Start system may not be operational during the trip following the
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be
available again after a continuous period of
immobilisation of the vehicle, a period which
depends on the exterior temperature and the
state of charge of the battery (up to about 8
hours).Towing the vehicle
General recommendations
Observe the legislation in force in the country where you are driving.
Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is higher than that of the \
