Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when braking.
The snow chains must be fitted only to the front wheels. They must never be fitted to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force in your country on the use of snow chains and the maximum running speed authorised.
Avoid driving on roads that have been cleared of snow, to avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and the road sur face. It is recommended that before you leave, you practise fitting the snow chains on a level and dry 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.
Advice on installation
 If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face on the side of the road.  Apply the parking brake and position any wheel chocks to prevent movement of your vehicle.  Fit the chains following the instructions provided by the manufacturer.  Move off gently and drive for a few moments, without exceeding 30 mph (50 km/h).  Stop 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:
For more information on snow chains, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Changing a bulb
Front lamps
A. Model with light guide
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:  do not clean them using a dr y 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 should only be done after the headlamp has been switched off for a few minutes (risk of serious burns).  Do 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.
