 emove the wheel. Stowing the damaged wheel
The damaged wheel can be stowed under 
the floor, in the housing for the standard 
spare wheel.
To stow an alloy wheel, first remove the 
hub cap from the middle of the wheel so 
that the fastening device (nut and bolt) can 
be put in place.
In the case of a "space-saver" type spare 
wheel, the damaged wheel cannot be 
stowed under the floor. It must be stowed 
in the boot; use a cover to protect the 
inside of the boot.
Fitting a wheel
Fastening the 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 spare wheel. 
The wheel is secured by the conical 
contact of each bolt.
After changing a wheel
Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) when 
using a "space-saver" type spare wheel.
Have the tightening of the bolts and the 
pressure of the spare wheel checked by a 
PEUGEOT
 dealer or a qualified workshop 
without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired and 
reinstall it on the vehicle as soon as 
possible.

Changing a bulb
The headlamps have polycarbonate 
lenses with a protective coating:
F 
d
 o not clean them using a dr y or 
abrasive cloth, nor with a detergent 
or solvent product,
F
 
u
 se a sponge and soapy water or a 
pH neutral product,
F
 
w
 hen 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 
several minutes (risk of serious burns).
F
 
D
 o 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 climate conditions (low 
temperature, humidity), the presence 
of mist on the internal sur face of the 
headlamp and rear lamp glass is normal; 
this disappears a few minutes after the 
lights are switched on.Front lamps
