TYRES (2/4)
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 road holding;
– risk 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).
Please be aware that a poorly tightened or missing valve cap can make
the tyres less airtight and may lead to pressure loss. Always use valve
caps of the same type as the originals and tighten them fully.
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.
Your vehicle is equipped with large
wheels. These are more sensitive to
imbalance. If you experience vibra-
tion while driving, contact an appro-
ved dealer.
Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure
loss warning system
If under-inflated (puncture, low pres-
sure, etc.), the warning light
 on
the instrument panel comes on. See
«Tyre pressure loss warning» in chap-
ter 2.

5.14
TYRES (3/4)
Changing wheels around
We recommend that you swap the
wheels regularly in order to ensure that
the tyres wear evenly.
Swap the wheels as shown in the above
diagram. Refer to your vehicle’s main-
tenance document for the intervals.
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on the
“Emergency spare wheel” and
“Changing a wheel” in Section 5.
Fitting new tyres
For safety reasons, this
operation 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;
– It may cause the steering to be heavy;
– it may affect the use of snow chains.

5.15
TYRES (4/4)
Snow or Winter tyres
We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure that
your vehicle retains maximum adhe-
sion.
Warning: These tyres sometimes
have a specific direction of rotation
and a maximum speed index which
may be lower than the maximum
speed of your vehicle.
Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation.
It is necessary to observe the speed
specified by current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.
In all cases, we would recommend
that you contact your approved
dealer who will be able to advise you
on the choice of equipment which is
most suitable for your vehicle.
Use in winter
Chains
2-wheel drive version (2WD)
Snow chains must be fitted to the
front wheels.
4-wheel drive version (4WD)
Snow chains may be fitted to only the
front wheels, or to all four wheels.
It is forbidden to fit snow
chains to only the rear
wheels.
Snow chains may only be
fitted to tyres of the same size as
those originally fitted to your vehicle.
Only certain chains can be fitted to
tyres.
Consult an approved dealer.

TOWING: breakdown (2/3)
4-wheel drive vehicles (4WD)
Whichever type of gearbox is fitted, a
4WD vehicle must never be towed if
any of its 4 wheels are touching the
ground.
Off-road recovery
If your vehicle is stuck in sand, snow
or mud, attach a flexible towing device
(towing belt or other device specially
designed for this purpose) to the front
or rear towing point (refer to the in-
formation on “Front and rear towing
points” on the previous page).
For off-road recovery, it
is forbidden to use a rigid
bar to tow a vehicle that is
stuck. Risk of mechanical
damage.You must never tow a 4-wheel drive
vehicle, irrespective of the mode se-
lected, if one of the 4 wheels is in
contact with the ground (except for
off-road recovery). Risk of mechani-
cal damage.
Refer to the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for information on how to fit
and operate the equipment.
If a 4x4 ( 4WD) vehicle becomes
stuck, it should only be towed for a
short distance. Risk of mechanical
damage.
Do not leave the tools unse-
cured inside the vehicle as
they may come loose under
braking.

5.42
TOWING: breakdown (3/3)
When storing the tools,
ensure they are securely re-
placed in the luggage com-
partment, in their original
position.
Do not leave the tools unsecured
inside the vehicle as they may come
loose under braking.

Towing a vehicle with an
automatic gearbox
When the engine is switched off, the
gearbox is no longer lubricated. It is
preferable to tow this type of vehicle
on a trailer or, for 4x2 (2WD) vehicles
only, tow it with the rear wheels off the
ground.
Under exceptional circumstances
and for 4x2 ( 2WD), vehicles only, you
may tow the vehicle with all four wheels
on the ground, only going forward, with
the gear lever in neutral position N and
for a distance not exceeding 30 miles
(50 km).
If the gear lever cannot be put into the
N position, please consult an authori-
sed dealer.
When setting off, if the lever is locked
in position P even though you are pres-
sing the brake pedal, the lever can be
released manually.
To do this, unclip the base of the lever,
simultaneously press recess 4 and the
unlocking button 5. Depending on the vehicle, unclip the
base of the lever, then insert a tool
(rigid rod) into the slot
6 and simulta-
neously press the button 7 in order to
unlock the lever.
Contact an authorised dealer as soon
as possible.
