instrument panel and/or the information
display). Refer to the information on the
“Tyre pressure monitor” in Section 2.

Vehicles fitted with an
emergency spare wheel
which is different to the
four other wheels:
– Never fit more than one emer -
gency spare wheel to the same
vehicle.
– Replace 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 ve -
hicle usually runs. Avoid sudden
acceleration or deceleration and
reduce your speed when corner-
ing.
– If you need to use snow chains,
fit the emergency spare wheel to
the rear axle and check the tyre
pressure.

The jack is designed for
wheel changing purposes
only. It should never be
used for repairs or gaining
access to the underside of the ve -
hicle.
Do not leave the tools unsecured inside the vehicle as they may come
loose under braking. After use, check that all the tools are correctly
clipped into the tool kit, then position it correctly in its housing: risk of
injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the tool kit, only use these bolts for the emergency
spare wheel: refer to the label affixed to the emergency spare wheel.
The jack is designed for wheel changing purposes only. Under no circumstances
should it be used for carrying out repairs underneath the vehicle or to gain access
to the underside of the vehicle.

Changing a wheel
cHAnGInG A WHeeL (1/2)
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 auto-
matic transmissions).
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.Vehicles equipped with a jack
and wheelbrace
Put together wheelbrace 1 using the
tools stored in the tool kit: refer to the
information on the “Tool kit” on the pre-
vious pages.
Use wheelbrace 1 to loosen the wheel
bolts. Fit it so that you press down -
wards rather than pulling 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.
Position the jack horizontally, with the
jack head positioned at the same height
as support 2 provided in the lower sec-
tion of the bodywork, closest to the
wheel concerned.
Start cranking up jack 3 by hand to
align the base plate (which should be
pushed slightly under the vehicle).
Place a plank of wood under the base
plate if on soft ground.
Turn the wheelbrace to lift the wheel off
the ground.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.

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.
Anti-theft bolt
If you use anti-theft bolts, fit these
nearest the valve (wheel embel -
lisher may not be able to fit).
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.
Undo the bolts and take off the wheel.
Fit the emergency spare wheel on the
central hub and turn it to locate the
mounting holes in the wheel and the
hub.
Tighten the bolts and lower the jack.
With the wheels on the ground, tighten
the bolts as fully as possible and check
the tightness as soon as possible (tight-
ening torque 130 Nm).
