BODYWORK MAINTENANCE (1/2)
You should
Wash your car frequently, with the
engine off, with cleaning products rec-
ommended by the manufacturer (never
use abrasive products). Rinse thor-
oughly beforehand with a jet:
– spots of tree resin and industrial
grime;
– mud in the wheel arches and under-
neath the body which forms damp
patches;
– bird droppings , which cause a
chemical reaction with the paint that
rapidly discolours paintwork and
may even cause the paint to peel
off;
wash the vehicle immediately to
remove these marks since it is im-
possible to remove them by polish-
ing;
– salt, particularly in the wheel arches
and underneath the body after driv-
ing in areas where the roads have
been gritted.
Remove any plant matter (resin, leaves,
etc.) from the vehicle regularly.
What you should not doDo not degrease or clean mechani-
cal components (e.g. the engine com-
partment), underneath the body, parts
with hinges (e.g. inside the doors) and
painted plastic external fittings (e.g.
bumpers) using high-pressure clean-
ing equipment or by spraying on prod-
ucts not approved by our Technical
Department. Doing this could give rise
to corrosion or operational faults.
Wash the vehicle in bright sunlight or
freezing temperatures.
Do not scrape off mud or dirt without
pre-wetting.
Allow dirt to accumulate on the exterior.
Allow rust to form following minor im-
pacts.
Do not use solvents not approved by
our Technical Department to remove
stains as this could damage the paint-
work.
Do not drive in snow or muddy condi-
tions without washing the vehicle, par-
ticularly under the wheel arches and
body.
A well-maintained vehicle will last
longer. It is therefore recommended to
maintain the exterior of the vehicle reg-
ularly.
Your vehicle has been treated with very
effective anti-corrosion products. It is
nevertheless subject to various outside
influences.
Corrosive agents in the atmosphere
–
atmospheric pollution (built-up and
industrial areas),
– saline atmospheres (near the sea,
particularly in hot weather),
– seasonal and damp weather condi-
tions (e.g. road salt in winter, water
from road cleaners, etc.).
Minor impacts
Abrasive action
Dust and sand in the air, mud, road grit
thrown up by other vehicles, etc.
You should take a number of minor pre-
cautions in order to safeguard your ve-
hicle against such risks.

In case of puncture
Depending on the vehicle, a tyre infla-
tion kit or emergency spare wheel is
provided (refer to the following pages).
Special note
The Tyre Pressure Monitor function
does not check the emergency spare
wheel (the wheel replaced by the emer-
gency spare wheel disappears from the
instrument panel display).
Refer to the information on the “Tyre
pressure monitoring system” in
Section 2.
PUNCTURE, EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL (1/2)
If the emergency spare wheel has been stored for several years, have it \
checked by your Dealer to ensure that it is safe to use.
Vehicles fitted with an emergency spare wheel smaller than the
four other wheels:
– Never fit more than one emergency spare wheel to the same vehicle.
– As the punctured wheel is wider than the emergency spare wheel, the vehi\
cle’s ground clearance is reduced.
– Replace the emergency spare wheel as soon as possible with a wheel with \
the same dimensions as the original.
– When this is fitted to the vehicle, which must only be a temporary measu\
re, the driving speed must not exceed the speed indicated on the label on the wh\
eel.
– Fitting an emergency spare wheel may alter the way the vehicle usually r\
uns. Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration and reduce your speed when cor-\
nering.
– If you need to use snow chains, fit the emergency spare wheel to the rea\
r axle and check the tyre pressure.

5.3
Emergency spare wheel A
To get to it:
– open the tailgate;
– remove the mobile floor 1;
– remove the tool kit box by lifting it by its handles;
– unscrew the central mounting;
– if the vehicle is fitted with amplifier, place it to the side;
Note: be careful not to impact the
amplifier or cut its circuit;
– remove the emergency spare wheel.
PUNCTURE, EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL (2/2)
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.

Note: Store the punctured wheel in the
storage bag provided, along with the
tool kit and put them in the boot.

5.4
TYRE PRESSURE KIT (1/3)
The kit is only approved for
inflating the tyres of the ve-
hicle originally equipped
with the kit.
It must never be used to inflate
the tyres of another vehicle, or any
other inflatable object (rubber ring,
rubber boat, etc.).
Avoid spillage on skin when hand-
ling the repair product bottle. If drop-
lets do leak out, rinse them off with
plenty of water.
Keep the repair kit away from chil-
dren.
Do not dispose of the empty bottle
in the countryside. Return it to your
approved dealer or to a recycling or-
ganisation.
The bottle has a limited service
life which is indicated on its label.
Check the expiry date.
Contact an approved dealer to re-
place the inflation tube and repair
product bottle.
A
B
The kit repairs tyres when
tread A has been dam-
aged by objects smaller
than 4 mm. It cannot repair
all types of puncture, such as cuts
larger than 4 mm, or cuts in tyre
sidewall B.
Ensure also that the wheel rim is in
good condition.
Do not pull out the foreign body
causing the puncture if it is still in
the tyre.
Do not attempt to use the
inflation kit if the tyre has
been damaged as a result
of driving with a puncture.
You should therefore carefully check
the condition of the tyre sidewalls
before any operation.
Driving with underinflated, flat or
punctured tyres can be dangerous
and may make the tyre impossible
to repair.
This repair is temporary.
A tyre which has been punctured
should always be inspected (and re-
paired, where possible) as soon as
possible by a specialist.
When taking a tyre which has been
repaired using this kit to be replaced,
you must inform the specialist.
When driving, vibration may be felt
due to the presence of the repair
product injected into the tyre.

5.5
TYRE PRESSURE KIT (2/3)
In the event of a puncture, use the kit
located in the boot, underneath the
trunk carpet.
With the engine running and the
parking brake applied,
– Unscrew the cap from recess 3 on
the bottle;
– unscrew the bottle cap 2;
– screw the bottle 2 onto the compres- sor at the bottle recess point 3;
– unscrew the valve cap on the rele- vant wheel and screw the inflation
adapter 6 onto the valve;
– disconnect any accessories previ- ously connected to the vehicle’s ac-
cessories sockets;
– the plug 4 must be connected to the
vehicle accessories socket;
– press switch 5 to inflate the tyre to
the recommended pressure (please
refer to the information in the section
on “Tyre pressure”);
Before using this kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the parking brake, ask
all passengers to leave the vehicle
and keep them away from traffic.
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.
– after a maximum of 10 minutes, stop inflating and read the pressure (on
pressure gauge 1).
Note: while the container is empty-
ing (approximately 30 seconds), the
pressure gauge 5 will briefly indicate
a pressure of up to 6 bar. The pres-
sure will then drop.
– adjust the pressure: to increase it, continue inflating with the kit.
If the recommended pressure of
1.8 bar cannot be achieved after
10 minutes, repair is impossible. Do
not drive the vehicle. Consult an au-
thorised dealer.

tow eye 4.
The presence of the tools depends on
the vehicle.
The tools are located in a tray under the
trunk carpet.
Lift the trunk carpet and remove it.
TOOLS
Do not leave the tools unsecured inside the vehicle as they may come loo\
se under braking. After use, check that all the
tools are correctly clipped into the tool kit, then position it correctl\
y in its housing: there is a risk of injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the tool kit, only use these bolts for th\
e 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 un-
derneath the vehicle or to gain access to the underside of the vehicle.

ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level surface
where it will not slip.
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.
CHANGING A WHEEL (1/2)
Vehicles equipped with a
jack, wheelbrace and jack
handle
If necessary, remove the wheel trim.
Use the wheelbrace 1 to slacken off
the wheel bolts. Fit it so that you press
downwards rather than pulling up-
wards.
Start cranking up jack 4 by hand to
align the base plate (which should sit
flat against the ground) and until the
jack head 3 is in the centre of mark 2.If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.
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.

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.
CHANGING A WHEEL (2/2)
Turn it a few times to lift the wheel off
the ground.
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, checking that the
wheel is correctly positioned on its hub.
Lower the jack.
With the wheel on the ground, tighten
the bolts fully and have the tightness of
the bolts checked and the emergency
spare wheel pressure checked as soon
as possible.
Do not leave the tools un-
secured 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 posi-
tion 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 un-
derside of the vehicle.
