In the event of a puncture,
depending on the vehicle,
you will have:An emergency spare wheel or tyre in-
flation kit (refer to the information on the
following pages).
If the emergency spare wheel has been stored for several years, have it checked by your Dealer to ensure that it is
safe to use.
Vehicles fitted with an emergency spare wheel which is different to the f\
our other wheels:
–

Never fit more than one emergency spare wheel to the same v
ehicle.
–

Repla
ce the emergency spare wheel as soon as possible with a wheel identical to the original one.
–

When
this is fitted to the vehicle, which must only be a temporary measure, the driving speed must not exceed the speed
indicated on the label on the wheel.
–

Fitting
an emergency spare wheel may alter the way the vehicle usually runs. Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration and
reduce your speed when cornering.
–

If

you need to use snow chains, fit the emergency spare wheel to the rear axle and check the tyre pressure.

Present the jack horizontally, the jack
head must slide in the lower slot in the
body, as close as possible to the wheel
concerned.
Crank up the jack
1 by hand to align the
base plate (slightly inwards under the
vehicle). Place a plank of wood under
the base plate if on soft ground.
Changing a wheel
Switch on the hazard warn-
ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level sur-
face where it will not slip (if neces-
sary, place a solid support under the
jack base).
Apply the parking brake and engage
a gear (first or reverse, or P for au-
tomatic transmissions). Ask the pas-
sengers to leave the vehicle and to
keep away from traffic.
If you have a puncture, re-
place the wheel as soon as
possible.
A tyre which has been punc-
tured should always be inspected
(and repaired, where possible) by a
specialist.

Vehicles equipped with a jack
and wheelbrace
If necessary, remove the wheel trim,
refer to the information on “Wheel trims/
Wheels” in this Section. Undo the wheel
bolts using wheelbrace
2 .

Fit it so that
you press downwards rather than pull-
ing upwards.
To prevent any risk of injury
or damage to the vehicle,
only crank the jack until the
wheel you are replacing is
a maximum of 3 centimetres off the
ground.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.
CHANGING A WHEEL (1/2)
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.

This practice is not recommended.
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on the
“ E m e r g e n c y s p a r e w h e e l ” a n d
“Changing a wheel” in Section 5.
Fitting new tyres
TYRES (2/3)
Tyre pressures
Adhere to the tyre pressures (including
the emergency spare wheel). The tyre
pressures should be checked at least
once a month and additionally before
any long journey (refer to the label af-
fixed to the edge of the driver’s door).
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre wear
and unusually hot running.
These are factors which
may seriously affect safety and lead
to:
–

poor roadholding;
–


r

isk of blowouts or throwing a
tread.
The tyre pressure depends on the
load and speed of use; adjust the
pressures according to the condi-
tions of use (refer to the information
on “Tyre pressures” in Section 4).
Pressures should be checked when the
tyres are cold; ignore higher pressures
which may be reached in hot weather
or following a fast journey.
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, assume an in-
crease of 0.2 to 0.3 bar.
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Special note
Depending on the vehicle, there may
be an adapter which needs to be posi-
tioned on the valve before air is added.
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
–

it

may mean that your vehicle no
longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
–

It

may change the way it handles
when cornering;
–

I

t may cause the steering to be
heavy;
–

i

t may affect the use of snow
chains.
Important: a missing or
loose valve cap may com-
promise the tyre seal and
cause a loss of pressure.
Always use valve caps which are
identical to the originals.

BATTERY: troubleshooting (2/2)
Connect the positive (+) lead A to (+)
terminal 1
of the discharged battery,
then to (+) terminal
2 of the battery sup-
plying the current.
Connect the negative (–) lead
B

to (–)
terminal
3

of the battery supplying the
current and then to (–) terminal
4 of the
discharged battery.
Start the engine as normal. As soon as
it is running, disconnect leads
A and B
in the reverse order (4-3-2-1)
Starting the vehicle using the
battery from another vehicle
If you have to use the battery from an-
other vehicle to start, obtain suitable
jump leads (with a large cross section)
from an approved dealer or, if you al-
ready have jump leads, ensure that
they are in perfect condition.
The two batteries must have an iden-
tical nominal voltage of 12 volts. The
battery supplying the current should
have a capacity (amp-hours, Ah) which
is at least the same as that of the dis-
charged battery.
Ensure that there is no risk of contact
between the two vehicles (risk of short
circuiting when the positive terminals
are connected) and that the discharged
battery is properly connected. Switch
off your vehicle ignition.
Start the engine of the vehicle supply-
ing the current and run it at an interme-
diate engine speed.
Check that there is no con-
tact between leads
A and B
and that the positive lead
A
is not touching any metal
parts on the vehicle supplying the
current.
Risk of serious injury and/or damage

dealer.
Radiator: If there is a significant lack of coolant, remember that it must never be topped up using cold coolant while
the engine is very warm. After any procedure on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling
system, it must be refilled with a new mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved
by the Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
