2 - Removing the spare
wheel from its housing
To facilitate this, lift the rear of the
vehicle.
The spare wheel is specific to your vehicle, do not use it on vehicles of
different models.
Also, do not use spare wheels of a different
model to your vehicle.
These indications also apply to bolts.
With steel wheels:


H. Handle I.
Caliper
With alloy wheels:


H. Handle
I. Caliper
J. Bracket
K. Bolt
The spare wheel retaining bolt is located under
the rear bumper, on the right-hand side.

► Install extended socket A, wheelbrace D and
wheel bar B on the retaining bolt.
► Turn the assembly anti-clockwise to lower the
wheel.
► Turn to the locking point of the winch,
indicated by the hardening of the manoeuvre and
notch G not visible.
► After unrolling the cable completely, take the
spare wheel out.
With steel wheels:


► Unscrew handle H. ►
Remove caliper I from the outer part of the
steel wheel.
With alloy wheels:


► Unscrew the three fixing bolts K.
► Unscrew handle H.
► Remove bracket J from caliper I.
► Remove the spare wheel and place it near
the wheel to be replaced.
► If possible, place a chock under the wheel
diagonally opposite the wheel to be changed.
3 - Position the jack
Ensure that the jack is stable.
If the ground is slippery or loose, the jack
may collapse - Risk of injury!


Take care to place the jack strictly at jacking point 1 or 2 under the vehicle,
making sure that the jack head is centred at
the contact point on the vehicle. Otherwise,
there is a risk of damage to the vehicle and/or
the jack collapsing.
Make sure that any passengers are safe
(removed, away from the vehicle).
Never put your hands or your head in the
wheel arch.

108
In the event of a breakdown

Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack (use an axle stand).
Do not use:
– The jack for any other purpose than lifting
the vehicle.
– A jack other than the one supplied by the
manufacturer.
The jack must only be used to change a wheel with a damaged or punctured tyre.
The jack does not require any maintenance.
The jack meets European standards, as
defined in the Machinery Directive 2006/42/
CE.
Certain parts of the jack such as the
screw thread or the joints could cause
injury: avoid touching them.
Carefully remove all traces of lubrication
grease.
At the front

► Position the jack C at location 1 provided on
the underbody, near the front wheel.
At the rear

The jack must be located about 60 cm
from the edge of the rear wheel.


► Position the jack C at location 2 in the hole
provided for this purpose.
Special feature with a side footboard


If the vehicle is so equipped, make sure to place
the jack at 45° so that it does not interfere with
the footboard.
4 - Replacing the wheel to
be repaired
► Remove the wheel trim (depending on
version) by levering with screwdriver E.
► Unlock the bolts using wheelbrace D and
wheel bar B.
For more information on Positioning the
jack, refer to the corresponding section.
► Make sure that the jack is stable and
correctly positioned on the underbody.


► Using wheelbrace D and wheel bar B, extend
the jack sufficiently to release the wheel.
To clear the wheel easily, a space of about 2 to 3 cm is needed between the
ground and the tyre.
If the wheel is badly punctured/crushed,
increase the space but do not operate the
jack to its maximum lifting position.

► Unscrew the bolts completely and remove the
wheel to be repaired.
► Make sure that the spare wheel contact
surfaces, the bolts and bolt housings are clean
and free of impurities that could cause loosening
of the fixing bolts.
Do not grease the bolts before screwing
them on: they could unscrew themselves
spontaneously.


► Fit the spare wheel by aligning the 2
holes M with the 2 corresponding shafts N.
► Start screwing the bolts by hand.


Screw the bolts in this order.

In the event of a breakdown
► Lightly tighten using wheelbrace D and wheel
bar B.
► Lower the vehicle using wheelbrace D and
wheel bar B, and then remove the jack.
► Tighten the bolts again using wheelbrace D
and wheel bar B.
Have the tightening of the bolts and the
pressure of the spare wheel checked by
the Manufacturer's dealer network or a
qualified workshop without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired and
refitted on the vehicle as soon as possible.
If your vehicle has tyre under-inflation
detection, check the tyre pressures and
reinitialise the system.
5 - Storing the wheel to be
repaired
You must reposition the wheel to be repaired or
the spare wheel under the vehicle to lock the
winch system.
Check that it is securely fastened in its
compartment under the floor.
Improper wheel positioning can compromise
safety.
► Reposition the wheel at the rear of the
vehicle.
With steel wheels:


► Hang bracket I on the outer part.
► Screw handle H to secure the bracket and
the steel wheel.
With alloy wheels:


► Position bracket J on caliper I.
► Screw handle H.
► Screw the three fixing bolts K of caliper I onto
the alloy wheel.


► Install extended socket A, wheelbrace D and
wheel bar B on the retaining bolt.
► Turn the assembly clockwise to completely
wind up the cable and raise the wheel as far as
possible under the vehicle.
► Check that the wheel is flat against the floor
of the vehicle and that the notch G of the winch
is visible.
► Store the tools and the wheel trim (depending
on version).
For more information on
the Identification markings of the
vehicle, and in particular the tyre pressure
label, refer to the corresponding section.
Changing a bulb
The headlamps have polycarbonate lenses with a protective coating:
► do not clean them using a dry or
abrasive cloth, nor with a detergent or
solvent product,
► 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 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 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
with the same type and specification.
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), the presence
of misting on the internal surface of the glass
of the headlamps and rear lamps is normal; it
