carrier is not
recommended (risk of noise).
A punctured tyre of size 215 or 225 can be placed in the carrier.
Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does
not obstruct traffic: the ground must be level,
stable and non-slippery.
With a manual gearbox, engage first gear
then switch off the ignition to block the
wheels.
With an automatic gearbox, place the gear
selector in position P then switch off the
ignition to block the wheels.
With a drive selector, place the gear selector
in position P then switch off the ignition to
block the wheels.
Apply the parking brake, unless it is
programmed to automatic mode (for an
electric parking brake), and check that the
indicator lamp lights up on
the instrument
panel.
Ensure that the occupants have left the
vehicle and are located in a safe place.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised using a
jack; use an axle stand.
With an electric parking brake, place a chock
against the wheel diagonally opposite to the
one being replaced.


► With a steel wheel, remove the bolt cover
using tool 3
or the wheel trim by hand.
►

With an alloy wheel, remove the cover from
each of the bolts using tool 3

.
►

If the vehicle is so equipped, fit security bolt
socket

4 to wheelbrace 1 to slacken the security
bolt.
►

Slacken
(without removing) the other wheel
bolts using just wheelbrace 1.


► Place the foot of the jack on the ground and
ensure that it is directly below the A
or B jacking
point provided on the underbody, whichever is
closest to the wheel to be changed.

In the event of a breakdown

► Use the knob to extend the jack 2 until its
head comes into contact with jacking point A or
B, whichever is used; contact surface A or B on
the vehicle must be correctly engaged with the
central part of the head of the jack.
►

Raise the vehicle until there is sufficient
space between the wheel and the ground, to
then easily fit the spare (not punctured) wheel.
Risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is stable. If the
ground is slippery or loose, the jack may slip
or collapse.
Ensure that the jack is positioned strictly at
one of the jacking points A or B under the
vehicle, making sure that the vehicle's contact
surface is correctly centred on the head of the
jack. Otherwise, there is a risk of damage to
the vehicle and/or of the jack collapsing.


► Remove the bolts and store them in a clean
place.
►

Remove the wheel.
Fitting the wheel

► Fit the wheel on the hub.
► Screw in the bolts by hand as far as possible.
►

If fitted to your vehicle,
pre-tighten the anti-
theft bolt using the wheelbrace 1 fitted with the
anti-theft socket 4. ►

Pre-tighten
the other bolts using the
wheelbrace
1
only.


► Lower the vehicle again fully
.
► Fold jack 2 and remove it.


► If fitted to your vehicle, tighten the anti-theft
bolt using the wheelbrace 1 fitted with the anti-

In the event of a breakdown
8Fitting a steel or "space-saver" type
spare wheel
If the vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, the
washers A do not make contact with the steel
or "space-saver" type spare wheel. The wheel
is held in place by the conical contact surface
B of each bolt.
After changing a wheel
Stow the punctured wheel in the carrier.
Go promptly to a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Have the punctured tyre examined. After
inspection, the technician will advise you on
whether the tyre can be repaired or if it must
be replaced.
Some driving aid functions should be
disabled, e.g. the Active Safety Brake.
If your vehicle has tyre under-inflation
detection, check the tyre pressures and
reinitialise the system.
For more information on Tyre under-inflation
detection, refer to the corresponding section.
Tyre under-inflation detection
The steel spare wheel does not have a
sensor.
Wheel with wheel trim
When refitting the wheel, refit the wheel
trim, starting by aligning the cutout with the
valve and then pushing the trim into place all
round its edge with the palm of your hand.
Changing a bulb
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear
after the lamps have been on for a few
minutes.
The headlamps have polycarbonate lenses with a protective coating:
–

Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive
cloth, nor with detergent or solvent
products.
–


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 headlamps, 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 headlamp /
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
of the same type and specification. To avoid
lighting imbalance, replace the bulbs in pairs.
Halogen bulbs (Hx)
To ensure good quality lighting, check
that the bulb is correctly positioned in its
housing.
Opening the bonnet/Accessing the
bulbs
Proceed with caution when the engine is hot -
risk of burns!
Take care with objects or clothing that could
be caught in the blades of the cooling fan -
risk of strangulation!
After changing a bulb
To refit, carry out the operations in
reverse order to removal.
Close the protective cover very carefully to
guarantee the sealing of the lamps. CarM an uals 2 .c o m
