F Place the foot of the jack 2 on the ground and ensure that it is directly below the
front
A or rear B jacking point provided on
the underbody, whichever is closest to the
wheel to be changed. F
E xtend the jack 2 until its head comes into contact with the jacking point A or B used; the
vehicle’s contact sur face at A or B must engage with 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 might slip or drop - Risk
of injury!
Take care to position the jack only at one of the vehicle’s jacking points A or B under the vehicle,
ensuring that the contact sur face of the vehicle’s jacking point is centred on the head of the jack.
Other wise there is a risk of damage to the vehicle and/or that the jack might drop - Risk of injury!

Fitting a wheel
Fitting the spare wheel
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 spare wheel.
The wheel is secured by the conical
sur face of each bolt.
After changing a wheel
When using a "space-saver" type of
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 refitted to the vehicle as soon as
possible.
Stowing the wheel with
punctured tyre
The wheel with punctured tyre can be
stowed under the floor, in the housing
for the standard spare wheel.
To stow an alloy wheel, first remove the
trim from the middle of the wheel so that
the fixing parts (nut and bolt) can be put
in place.
In the case of a "space-saver" type
spare wheel, the wheel with punctured
tyre cannot be stowed under the floor. It
must be stowed in the boot; use a cover
to protect the inside of the boot.

Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when
braking.Advice on installation
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face
on the side of the road.
F
A
pply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks to prevent movement of
your
vehicle.
F
F
it the chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
F
M
ove off gently and drive for a few
moments, without exceeding 30 mph
(50
km/h).
F
S
top your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
Original tyre size Maximum link size.
185/65 R15 9 mm
195/55 R16
For more information on snow chains, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face. Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to
avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and
the road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted
with alloy wheels, check that no part of
the chain or its fixings is in contact with
the wheel rim.
Take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow
chains and the maximum running speed
authorised.
The snow chains must be fitted only
to the front wheels. They must never
be fitted to "space-saver" type spare
wheels.

Changing a bulb
Front lamps
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.
The headlamps are fitted with
polycarbonate glass 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 headlamp 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 imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs to avoid
damaging the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specification. 1.

direction indicators, must be replaced
with bulbs of identical specifications
and colour.

cover carefully to preserve the sealing
of the headlamp.
Rapid flashing of the direction indicator
warning lamp (right or left) indicates the
failure of a bulb on that side.
