block traffic: the ground must be level,
stable and not slippery.
Apply the parking brake unless it has
been programmed to automatic mode,
switch off the ignition and engage first
gear* to block the wheels.
Check that the braking warning lamp
and the P warning lamp in the parking
brake control lever come on.
For greater safety, place the chock 2
against the wheel opposite to the one
being changed.
The occupants must get out of the
vehicle and wait where they are safe.
Never go underneath a vehicle
supported by a jack; use an axle stand.

Fitting the "space-saver"
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
"space-saver" spare wheel. The wheel
is secured by the conical sur face of
each bolt.
After changing a wheel
To correctly store the punctured wheel
in the boot (not in the location for the
space-saver wheel ), 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 CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired
and refitted to the vehicle as soon as
possible.
