PRACTICAL INFORMATION
   
Temporary use spare wheel 
  If your vehicle is equipped with a 
spare wheel for temporary use only, 
when fi tting this it is normal to ob-
serve that the wheel bolts do not 
come to bear directly on the wheel 
rim. 
  The spare wheel is secured by the 
conical tapering of the wheel bolt’s 
shaft. 
  When refi tting the original wheel, en-
sure that the wheel bolts and wash-
ers are clean and in good condition.  
  
 
Fitting a wheel 
 
 
 
 ) 
  Position the wheel with the aid of 
the centring guide  3 
. 
   
 ) 
  Do up the 3 bolts by hand, then 
remove the centring guide  3 
. 
Position the 4 th  bolt. 
   
 ) 
  Pre-tighten the wheel bolts, us-
ing the wheelbrace  4 
. 
   
 ) 
 
Retract the jack  5 
 and disengage it. 
 
 
 ) 
 Tighten the wheel bolts, using 
the wheelbrace  4 
. 
   
 ) 
  Ensure that the tyre pressure is 
correct.  
   
Under-infl ation detection 
 
Wheels with under-infl ation  detection  
have tyre pressure sensors. Have repairs  
to them carried out by a CITROËN dealer  
or a qualifi ed workshop. The spare wheel  
does not have a sensor.   
 
 
 
Security bolts (alloy wheels) 
 
Each wheel may be equipped with 
one security bolt (depending on the 
country of sale). 
  To remove it: 
   
 
 ) 
  remove its protective cover us-
ing of the tool for removing the 
chrome covers  2 
. 
   
 ) 
 use the security bolt socket  6 
 
with the wheelbrace  4 
.  
 
 
 
Spare wheel dimensions 
 
If your spare wheel has dimensions 
different from those of the standard 
vehicle wheels (identifi ed by a la-
bel), it is imperative to use the spare 
wheel only temporarily, to drive 
with caution, not to exceed 50 mph 
(80 km/h) and to have the tyre re-
paired and the standard wheel refi t-
ted as soon as possible.  
 
 
Tyre pressures 
 
These are indicated on the label 
on the front left-hand door pillar 
(see "Technical Data - Identifi cation 
markings"). 
  The wheel bolts are specifi c 
to each type of wheel. 
  If new wheels are fi tted, check with 
your CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed 
workshop that the wheel bolts are 
compatible with the new wheels. 
  Make a note of the code number on 
the head of the security bolt sock-
et. This will enable you to obtain a 
replacement security bolt socket 
from your dealer.
